I'm 99% moved back home. All my crap cept some few kitchen things and stuff are now crammed in the living room, bedroom, and well basically throughout the house and garage wherever there is space (and if there isn't any we'll make some...sort of).
...and now I'm ready to MOVE OUT!!!
I just have way too much crap for my tiny tiny tiny tiny room. Many of you have seen my room and it's tiny and I have laods of crap. Well the thing is I'm sure I can make most of it fit by cramming it in various places. My crafts stuff and some of my clothes (summer most likely since I won't be really using it much here in the Bay) will go to my sister's room... since I managed to fit the dresser into the room it shouldn't be THAT much stuff in my sister's closet.
Problem: my sister has yet to move out of the houes!!! She's turning 33 in Oct, is married, has a son, has a townhouse... and yet her bedroom in my parents' house looks like she still lives there! I know like 25% or so of the clothes is Ate Shirley's since she just left her winter clothes here for when she visits from the Philippines. But seriously, my sister Sandy needs to move out. I've been telling her for weeks that I need her to move her stuff out or throw it out! Either way it needs to be out of there cause this is just ridiculous.
Problem 2: The large furniture that I wanted in my room all fit, but it's not very aesthetically pleasing. In fact there are many issues w/ all the various arrangements thta people have suggested. And some issues I know they will probably bother me even more as things move along. And at the rate it's going, anyone with longer legs than me will have a very difficult time sitting at my desk - and by difficult i Mean you won't fit unless you sit sideways ^.^ ;;; But while the other method might have been a little more pleasing and a little roomier for some people, there's just something about it that I didn't like... It just didn't feel right to me. I might do some drawings to give you guys an idea... and maybe take pictures. But I think the way it is now will stay. But the problem is, I will get annoyed and frustrated every day and the little haven that was once my room will be a little more like hell everytime I'm there... ok I'm exaggerating but I know I won't be happy and that's not conducive for productivity. And just being here in the garage just to use the computer (my parents' super computer which I need for arts and just everything because it's so super) is not conducive to productivity either... It's warm (insulation), but it smells funny, it makes really creepy sounds when it's windy - which is often, and it's just so.. Bleeeeegh. At least for the next few months until the garage is organized.
It really annoys me that my parents keep asking - do you really need these books here? do you really need this? Uh YEAH. I'm only a Japanese Major English minor so it would be good if I had access to the books that I read! Ok so some of the English books, even the classics, will probably have to go down to the underground storage (that's really really really hard to get to) sinec I probably won't be rereading those but a good number of the english books will stay because they are just things that I want to show off. I will also probably boxd some of the translated manga (Chobits, Inuyasha, Ah My Goddess, more) just because I don't read them anyway (they're gifts from a cousin and I'd sell them and probably make some $$ but I can't contact my cousin - he's in the navy and in Asia on a sub or carrier or something somehwere). But the untranslated manga STAYS!
So yeah... I really just need my own place. I might be able to put up with this for this year because I am going to be in Davis for a quarter anyway, but after a year... I really think I need to move out. Problem is - I'm so POOR! It'll take me a year just to build up my bank account to what it used to be and it will take so much more for me to get an apt out here in the bay! And lord knows it'll be a crappy expensive apartment to boot. But ugh. Eve nif I had a slightly smaller room but at least a living room or such to branch out in (as in 204) I'd be fine but as it is... well.. *sigh*
