Hopkins CRIBS - Wolman East - 511B

Welcome to 511B, the cozy little corner in Wolman East that I call home.  Sit back, relax, and enjoy the tour. 

1. The entrance.   I promise it's not as messy as it looks.    Straight ahead is my bowl chair--often used more as a coat rack than an actual place to sit.  On the left is my desk chair.  At the time of the picture, it was holding my bookbag--I was just about to leave for the airport to come home for spring break.

2. Upon entering, immediately on the left, you'll see my wardrobe and part of my desk.  Right now it's serving as a multi-purpose shelf for whatever random things I can't find a place for, including: Clorox wipes, instant coffee, Dove chocolate bunnies, empy vases (usually filled with pretty flowers, but not right before break).

 3.  As you turn slightly clockwise, you get a better view of my desk and see a bit of my chair/coat rack.  My desk i s amazingly clean right now, it's  usually covered in books and papers.  You can also see my calendars and my Brooks Robinson picture above them.  Any good Orioles fan has to have Brooks somewhere nearby.  Anyway, I use my calendars to write out all the big assignments and exams I have coming up, for two months at a time so I can get an idea of what's ahead of me.  If you look closely, you can see several things highlighted--those are all my exams...there's a lot of them...

 4. A bit more of a clockwise turn brings you to the chair, my  daffodils, and my favorite study spot: my bed.  I kept my Christmas lights up after winter break because they're so much less harsh than the fluorescent lights in the room.  They're really nice for reading right before bed.

5. Here's just another view of my bed.  I searched far and wide last summer for a bedspread or quilt and finally found this one from Anthropologie.  I was afraid it might be a bit much but I love all the colors--it's happy!  I'm also showing off my new poster...yes, it's a periodic table.  It's so useful and pretty though!

6. Here's the end of my bed.  Believe it or not, my intention wasn't to show you the messy little corner I have.  I was trying to get a picture of how high my bed is; it's a half-loft and fits two stacked drawers underneath.

7. Just to the left of my door is this wall. This has my To-Do list and pictures from high school/home.  The list is one I wrote out early in the first semester, and it's not your traditional to-do list.  This one includes: have a tea party (check), befriend a dog (check), visit the farmer's market (check), knit a sweater (yet to be done), etc.

8.  As the tour concludes, here's another shot of my wardrobe and the area just to the right of my door (when facing the door, that is).  I have my Organic Chemistry SparkChart, and you can see more of the miscellaneous things that have found a home on top of my wardrobe.

That's such a cute bedspread! While I still think it was convenient for me (personally) to order my bedsheets from the campus bedsheet company, I envy those of you who bought unique bedsheets of your own. :)
