I've been wanting a full-length mirror for a while, and mentioned it in passing while taking a walk with my mom and grandma yesterday- A couple of hours later, my dad finds one with a nice wooden fram on the street(or in the lobby of my building, not sure)! It's big and totally cool. "Funny how that works out!" said my grandma (in Swedish). Today I sanded it and cleaned it- Putting a new finish on it is too much of a pain in the neck, so I'm going to paint it white, and maybe paint something cute on the panel in the bottom. Pictures soon, I'm totally excited.

I'm guess I'm working towards a kind of dreamy, pseudo-princessy feel for my room. Girly but not saccharine, and classy. I'm not going to forsake my nerdiness (I've put away some of my plastic figurines but some are still on display). I want my room to be an oasis where I can relax or focus on work, and be inspired. I have issues focusing and tons of clutter and stress-inducing mess really doesn't help. I arranged all of my stuffed animals into a big giant pile on a corner of one of the shelves over my bed, and it's pretty cute. A good start!
