Stolen from candesgirlA is for ACCENT: Midwestern without the nasal vowels is the closest I can come to describing it.

After spending the night in a grown-up apartment, I flipped through the IKEA catalog this morning to gain inspiration for both my bedroom and the living/guest room. I think I do both for under $200.

Home always makes me tired. Like, ridiculously, I-can't-even-get-out-of-bed tired ... maybe I'm just catching up on all the sleep I lost during the semester? Either way, the whole house is a mess because of Christmas and I can barely walk through my room due to all the stuff I brought home with me. I'm also unemployed, so I will soon be putting up ( Read more... )
