My New Home.... D104

Due to my sisters request, yet again, I am blogging about my new apartment. I need to catch up with other things but I wanted to show my new home..... and it is the complete tour with lots of photos so you can feel like you are here.
My wonderful table, it was a rough ride to get this table to where it is today but after it barely fitting in the Camry and then having to replace it because IKEA directed us to get the wrong legs (which made it so the screws went through the top of the table) we were able to get the perfect table and I love it!
I may just be starting out but thanks to my graduation money and gift cards I am not starving.
My fridge is also full and the freezer is also full of meat thanks to my wonderful roommate Kaitlyn. We should have taken a picture but we looked gross because we were cleaning our apartment so I could take pictures and my mom is coming on Monday and I wanted her to see I could take care of myself.
The Kitchen...
Full view of the Kitchen.
Our lovely magnetic board, thanks Uncle Jonny!
Living Room with our secretary desk.
Living Room with our beautiful chair and couch provided by my roommie.
My favorite wall, the TV!!!!! And the decorations are pretty cute too.
Our front entry and part of our Living Room.
This is our printing and calendar station with our menu listed so we know what to cook.
Bathroom.... yeah it is never this clean so enjoy it because if you come to visit the chances of it looking like this are slim to none.
Clean shower and my cheap shower curtain with frogs on it telling us to go green, go environment!
Bathroom again...
This is how I dry my clothes... nothing really to do with the apartment but I was drying them today so I took a picture. I hang them on my doorway to my bedroom so I have to duck every time I need to go into my bedroom.
My personal favorite part of my apartment is that it comes with washer and dryer!
Kaitlyn's bed.... she has a really nice bed and loves to spend time in it.
Another shot of Kaitlyn's room...
Can you tell she is an English major? Look at that bookcase! She has already loaned me several books and I love it!
Another great thing about the apartment is that we both have linen closets... this Kaitlyn's. She was embarrassed that I took a picture because it was so messy but usually the door is closed.
My linen closet.... not very full because I have a massive closet that you will see soon.
My bed!
My huge closet! This is only one side...
and the other side.
Back wall of my bedroom, as you can see with my giant TV.
My art work that I am too lazy to hang so I just put it up against the floor.
Oh and I do work.... here is my busy schedule for those who think I just.... I don't know think I watch TV all day. Excuse some of the notes.... my friend Melanie decided to write goals down for me such as "Find a Date on V-Day" which I wasn't able to accomplish that goal. Sorry Melanie.
For those of you who don't know, I moved to Utah to substitute teach in the Davis County School District and am doing great and able to get a job almost every day! I love getting paid for what I got my degree in.... makes those 4 years worth it!
I don't watch TV all day but I did aquire this huge TV from Julianne. Josh, he son was going to shoot it but I took it off their hands. My dad said that I should have let him shoot it...
The left side of my room with all my jewelry boxes.
I hope you have enjoyed the tour!
I love my new home but still miss my other home in Idaho, I am excited I get to go visit so often and only live 3 hours away.
