WHAT.
Holy Moses on a motorbike, Batman! Does anyone still read this?!
Well, alright, that's a silly question. I know there are several of you who still check here every now and then! ;)
Man, what to say...?
I will keep it short.
2008 is going to be a big year! I am currently in the process of beginning the move to Downtown Sacramento sans roommate, into a charming little apartment with hardwood floors!
Annnd... By apartment, I mean a charming unit in an Art Deco Vision of the Future Circa the 1950s Dentist Office Building. It is ridiculously awesome, and I submitted my rental application this past Saturday. Cross your fingers for me and hope they hand it over! ;)
Being a cautious optimist here and assuming they give me the place, I have absurdly amazing plans to paint the different rooms shades of lovely light blue, subtle yellow, and either a sage green or neutral beige. Additionally, I intend do gussy the joint up with fun items from IKEA - a place I've always wanted to utilize, but have never had the opportunity to up until this point. :)
Painting the place several different colors and buying furniture from IKEA seems like a really flimsy plan, I know, but I am thinking of fleshing it all in as I go along. I've been visiting Apartment Therapy lately for inspiration, specifically, these links:
http://www.apartmenttherapy.com/scc.php
http://www.apartmenttherapy.com/scc2007.php
There are some pretty amazing spacings in those lists of links, though I tend to focus on the ones that look more cozy and lived in, as opposed to chic and cold. :)
I had to use my iPhone to take photos of the space since I didn't bring a proper digital camera with me. If I am lucky enough to get this place, I fully intend to document transforming it into a livable space. It will be very interesting to see its transformation!
This is the front room, which would be my living/working/reading/lounging&drinkingcoffee area.
This is an angled, partial view of the kitchen from the doorway between the living room and kitchen.
This bathroom is pretty retro with the light teal and coral pink tiling... This is going to need a bit of help to spice it up!
Here is a partial view of the tiny bedroom in the back. It'll be nice and cozy and easy to warm in the winter. Whoohoo!
On a totally different note, I am thinking it would be fun to start posting random iPhone photos I take here. For whatever reason, the pictures my friends and I take with my iPhone always turn out much more candid or fun than the ones taken with an ordinary digital camera. I am going to soon post the Pimp Cup pictures of my co-workers, but for now, here is a test shot of me hard at work... ;)
Doot! :)
