I’m moving in about two weeks and I’m starting to get really excited. I am so through with my current place. I cannot wait until I get the keys, that will be fabulous. I’m going from being really happy that I get to decorate a whole house to being anxious, because it’s so much bigger than my apartment, and hoping that I will not still sit in an undecorated house in three months because I got tired of working on it. I know I can’t have it perfect after just a couple of days, but I do have visions, and I want to try to realize them.

Like my office/library/guest room. I really want an Expedit shelf from Ikea, I have sort of fallen in love with them. I want it in white, but my desk is black, so I’m not sure if I should go with black instead. I want to colour-code all my books, which is something I’ve seen online and it just looks so great. I think that’s one of the main things I’m looking forward to, having all my books with me again. Right now, my place is way too small, and they are still in my parents’ basement. I can’t even really remember what books I have, and it will be so exciting finding out.

I also want to do something special with the bathroom. It has quite a strange shape, sort of long and not very wide. And it also basically consists of three different rooms. Bathtub, sink, and washer are in the first one, then there’s another sink in another little room which leads to a third little room with the toilet. I know I can do something fun with it, I just don’t know what exactly yet. I should browse flickr! for some ideas.

And then there is the largest room, the livingroom. I have some ideas, but I’m not sure they are appropriate for a room into which I might invite guests. Then again, it’s my house, and I should be comfortable in it. The room itself is quite bright, but I would like to add some dark elements to it.

I wish it was already two weeks from now.
