The difference a foot makes

It's amazing how different a room can look once you've moved the bed a mere foot or so. I was all motivated to rearrange my room last night when I realized that to achieve my goal (not having the bed in a corner--it makes making the bed really inconvenient, among other problems), I only had to move my nightstand to the other side of the bed. So the bed is now about a foot away from the wall. Brilliant! I also moved my files from the plastic filing box they were in to an actual filing cabinet. And it's sad that now I feel that my room looks, like, a million times more grown-up. And yes, I have some weird obsession with having my apartment look like a grown-up lives there. I don't know.

Anyway, now I just wish that I had something to replace my plastic storage bin (which is something like this). Then my bedroom would look totally grown-up! Well, also if I had a headboard. But right now my room is too small for an awesome sleigh bed.
