My old room was seriously lacking. All this time, I’ve been sleeping on a cheap twin-sized bed for crying out loud. The metal bed frame was wobbly and utter junk. I’m pretty sure it was pilfered from a random alleyway dumpster… then given to me to use.<\/p>\n
Instead of spending so much money elsewhere, I should have invested more in upgrading my room. Frankly speaking, I was never really motivated to do so because I didn’t feel connected with where I was living. The extent of my motivation was when I went to OfficeMax and bought a desk<\/a>…<\/p>\n Now that I was moving, I felt compelled to devote much needed attention to my room. I updated my bed to something a normal adult should sleep in: a full-size mattress on an Ikea Malm bed frame + nightstand with Ikea Sultan Laxeby slats. This bed frame combo was love at first sight. I loved the contemporary simplicity of its design and the low-slung profile. Best of all, in character with Ikea, it was affordable. Also, after using the same alarm clock since 1997, I finally bought myself a new one…<\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n For my desk and “office”, I chose an Ikea Galant table with chrome A-legs and black wood top. I was sick of glass tops, they just don’t feel right. The desk lamp is a nickel plated Ikea Forsa. The chair is a Scandinavian Designs Ovata high back.<\/p>\n
