I am so happy I get to move into my new apartment next weekend with one of my sisters (she is so sweet, Congrats on your engagement JG).

I'm trying to figure what color theme to have for my room (I'm still going included my phi sig stuff but not until after recruitment). I was thinking of different shades of blue, blue and yellow, bold colors, etc.

The other 2 problems that I have the room is small but I need a desk for my computer and another desk to study on (Is that too much). My second problem is I can not paint the walls so it that dorm room bright white walls. This room is so small and I have a lot of stuff so I have to condence a lot of my stuff and leave most of it with my parents.

How is your room decorated? Does anyone have any suggestions or websites that I could go to look at room makeovers.

a great idea that i did was buy white rolling cart from home depot
it's called something else. . .but it's a shelving on wheels
your computer can fit right on it
the only problem I have run into is my mouse
you can decorate the carts all you want

a big source of inspiration for my bedroom came from carrie from sex and the city's room with a dash of samantha's

I suggest watching Trading Spaces or While You Were Out to get some quick and cheap ideas. You mentioned needing a desk to study on and a desk for your computer. What about finding a deck that elevates your monitor and has a pull-out thingy for your keyboard? I have one and it has plenty of room to study on.

Good luck on your searches!

I moved in and my room looks great (I'll take pictures). I have a my paddles on my closet doors. A Phi Sig clock on the wall next two the paddles, a purple and gold Phi Sigma Sigma banner/flag above the front of my bed, a koala draped over my pillows, etc.

It's a great room and looks really good. I'm going to try to keep it this way.
