New Breathing Space

One of the things I am very particular about is the space I move around in. I like the concept of owning my space derived from the popular concept "of making it your own". [Yes, I am a bit territorial: RAWR!]

I bought my first piece of furniture yesterday. It's a basic computer table.It is very cheap yet sturdy. [If you are wondering where I got it, it's from CDR King Starmall.] Arckham and I assembled it on the wee hours of Sunday. [We first finished marathoning The Big Bang Theory's Season 3 :P]

Assembling was a little bit tricky, since there was this piece that had the wrong screws. We needed wood screws but the one that came with it were flat ones. We got creative with it and used the screw drivers we had to create the slots so the flat screws would slide into it.

By 5 AM, we already had it standing on four wheels.

Yes, I don't really have a PC. I basically will be using the keyboard slot of the table to keep Pierre [my laptop]. Then using the desk space as basically a regular work desk. I can always pull out the laptop when I need it. 

That evening, I started working on rearranging my part of the room to accommodate the new computer table. I had previously bought some boxes for storage since one of my cabinets are slowly reaching it's capacity. It was rather cheap, I got them from St. Francis Square in Mandaluyong. One can even double as a chair [but I'm mainly going to use it as a foot rest]. 

Then, I also started working on the wall. My main passion in life is music. So much so that it makes me sad that I'm not much of a music geek anymore. [I plan to get back into that soon.] I have always found comfort in the so called universal language and I wanted that to come through in my little corner of the world. So, I worked on revamping the wall as well.

The wall stickers are also from CDR King. They really are coming up with great stuff just need a little more creativity to not come out generic, but they basically give you great key elements to work with. 

 

Safe to say that was one productive day, there are still a few things that I am still hunting down: chair, shoe rack, cork board, mirror and a lamp. Any suggestions where I should go? [Note that I have a rather tight budget.]

Anyway, I will be sure to update you guys on how this new space will turn out.
