She says they are only for looks and we'll get the leather couches I wanted "soon". I told her I don't need that crapp but she proceeds to tell me she is also putting this single white column in there with what sounded like a statue of the head of Nero ( the roman emperor )and then hit me with a picture of Michaelangelo's "the Creation" and starts telling me what it is, as if I didn't know. I told her I don't want my place looking like I'm some art Fag

Couple of things.
First, Unless your Linda Richmond from Saturday Night Live, or Staten Island trash, have her leave the columns at home. I wouldnt want them either. They do look gay. Unless you're trying to open your own italian resturaunt in your living room, then they're fine.
Tell her you appreciate her help, but you are afraid that if she busts out some coin, the stuff she buys might get ruined. Youd rather have her get stuff for you after you graduate, thereby buying you some time.
If thats not an option, or If you are worried about what she will get you, go with her to the furniture store and pick out the stuff you like. Theres cool stuff out there. Thats what I did when my mom threatened to decorate my place. A day at the furniture store wasnt my idea of fun, but I did get some cool stuff outta it.
Best of luck bro
