Shopping and room stuff
Jan. 13th, 2008 05:46 pmMy room is 90% finished right now. The paint is on the walls and my furniture has been completely rearranged in my room. My bed is now under my wide window and framed on either side by my wall units, and my desk is on the other side of the room. I also have room for a chair in here, as well. Tomorrow or maybe the day after I'll finish putting it together; all I have left to do is put up the bamboo blinds and hang some of my framed prints. I might go to IKEA this week and get curtains as well.
Today I got restless and went down to the Vero Beach Outlet Mall for some new pants. I got a pair of jeans at the GAP Outlet for $13, and they fit, which is awesome. I also got two new dresses - one from the GAP Outlet again and a dress from BCBG Max Azria that is actually the dress that Chuck is wearing in my icon. No joke. It's adorable. I do need to find a place that does alterations because it needs to be taken in at the shoulders a tiny bit, but other than that, perfect. Especially since it was only $29 and originally it was about $120. I almost emptied out my bank account to buy this gorgeous red coat at the Banana Republic outlet with a mandarin collar and military buttons. It was so pretty. Oh my God. You have no idea. It took immense willpower.
I just finished taking the e-Learning online tutorial for my BCC online classes, which taught me valuable skills as "Checking my email" and "Posting in a forum." It included helpful tips as "avoid humor and sarcasm, which can easily be misinterpreted over the internet." I'm so glad they were able to help me with that. I would never have figured it out on my own.
Tomorrow I start my classes - calculus from 10:50 to 1:05 and online Film Appreciation. Becky, I'm looking at you. That means I'm free after ONE tomorrow to do le furniture shopping.
Puppy! This is not helping me try to resist adopting a puppy. So smooshy. So fluffy. So cute.
