I'm in luck with good company next year. It frightens me that I'll be homeless or be stuck with awful roommates. It's been a pattern for the latter. I don't think I mind living in a new place because this means I can start over. Being closer to campus and a grocery store is good enough for me. That was the plan for this year anyways, but that failed. Don't get me wrong NB! I enjoyed your perks of isolation and my higher sense of motivation to exercise more, but you're inconvenient and it's about time I find a niche.
Every time I go apartment hunting and find a place, I'm thinking of how I'm going to make the place more homey. I can't help but obsess over kitchen appliances, furniture, bookshelves, or picture frames. No I don't think I caught the IKEA bug. I'm not going to get super cheap materials, price has its perks but I'd like my stuff to last. Our couch for instance is one of the most uncomfortable pieces of furniture I had to encounter. I can't really complain, I got what I paid for. The sofa cover is coming apart and let's not mention how we haven't figured out how to wash it.
I think I want a more "urban outfitters", "indie" look to my apartment. I'm going to recycle newspapers and glue gun things to sturdy cardboard and make my furniture that way! No I'm kidding, but not really. I magnet towards the DIY/apartment section of UO. It's a bit of an indulgence for me.
