This is their story.
These are their tales...
I just realized that I combined the Real World into Cribs. Oh well, it happens.
This is going to be a mostly picture/video based, as I haven't done much of that, but no worries.
Rolling up to my new house for the year, I was excited to see what I was in for. Upon first looking at the house, I notice broken windows in the stairwell. If this wasn't a big enough hint, I already knew from personal experience: People who live here, Party here.
Facing our front door, you meet our construction paper name tag that clearly doesn't do us or our personalities. Bent and falling off on one corner, it hangs limpless. I took the liberty of adding a door cling that I've picked up in my travels. Who says you can't have your cake and eat it too?
After being met with these friendly faces, you enter our lavish kitchen, fully equipped with linoleum flooring and faux wood counter tops! There are many cupboards around the kitchen but noting my 5'2'' stature, it makes it pretty hard for these to be functional.
It's nice to have a full sized fridge this year to accomodate our full-sized lifestyle. Oh lookie who we found here!
As you throw a peace sign to the kitchen, you meet the family room. I got to say, I absolutely love this aspect of the apartment. It's awesome to have a veg spot. We have 2 uncomfy chairs and a couch thanks to our learning establishment, but we also have a futon thanks to Dees and a couch thanks to Steve & Jim. I don't have pictures to show you these lavish items, but enjoy our entertainment system, kindly assembled by Jim himself.
In another effort to be more homey around here, I bought some corkboards to hang quotes, pictures, or other roomie-affiliated things. It's a little bare right now, but I'm sure we will accumulate things as time goes on.
My boughts of domestic diva-dom don't end there. Heading into the bathroom, you might want to put your snorkle on. As a group, we decided on a shower curtain, and from there I went a little buck wild. Sorry for decorating.
OH. And I brought this super dope sign from home. Seemed fitting. Can't wait til a confused freshman gets drunk and thinks we have a men's room somewhere else in the house...
Insert "Under the Sea" lyrics here....
Plus what would a bathroom tour be without a myspace shot?
The definition of attractive.
After that, we hit up my room to check out what's going on. Of course I brought my tie-dye back, because what is a college living space without tie-dye? Let's not kid ourselves.
It has since fallen down. OH WELL.
Looking up into the ozone layer, we find my bed. You'd think it'd be cold like the top of Everest, but no no noooo this is not the case. In fact, there is a rainforest effect of sorts, which makes the air hot and sticky, even if the window's open. 
I'm super stoked on my pillows and pillowtop, though it shifts weird at the height. I also am glad to have the sunflowers and candles in their own places, it helps in making it feel more homey. I'm a big fan of pictures so I hung a bunch up because this dead space was just going to go to waste anyway.
Trying to overtake the Utah brown with some green! I hope I don't kill this thing-- I'm really amped to have it. Though I'm in the mountains of the east, but I love this pic from out west so I threw it on the desk.
