The rest of the apartment is kinda messy and contains mostly stuff which is not mine, so I didn't take photos. If my estimate isn't completely wrong, this room is about half a metre longer than the room I had in my first year, and it makes a BIG difference for the claustrophobia and stuff. It kind of sucked trying to remember how I had arranged some of my things five years ago, though, and I'm forced to do it differently here anyway.
The Venetian blinds were broken so I got a cheap bedsheet and pinned it up over the window. Hey, whatever works. I don't mind that it lets in a bit of light because it kind of reminds me of Finnish summers (and I slept perfectly fine then), and it makes sure that my stuff doesn't get sun-bleached from direct sunlight. Besides, the more light comes into my room, the more likely I'll be able to wake up in time to get to work.
You can't see it in the photos, but since there wasn't a convenient way to put my Finnish dictionary in my closet-shrine (I admit that my entire room is slightly shrine-like), it's on my desk next to my computer. 'Cuz it comes in handy sometimes, and I'm too lazy to walk to the closet every time I wanted to look for something super-quickly (opening my browser takes longer, even).
Anyway, I'm super tired and super hungry. Definitely need to feed myself and go to bed. I'm kind of happy that I can cook on the stove again without getting antsy. I don't think I've used a stove for the last four months, or maybe longer (well okay, I cooked on the stove once at my parents' house during Easter weekend. That doesn't count).
I also had some trouble putting up things on my wall so that they are straight. I don't know if it was just because I was that tired.
