As we wind up to the beginning of the year, dorm decorating is on (almost) everyone’s minds. I went through an entire semester last year with no decorations up in my room and the place looked deserted. So this year I’ve been a lot more proactive about making my space more welcoming.

Wind chimes are both aestetically pleasing and lovely to hear, right? So I bought one. A light breeze is all it takes to experience that joy-enducing sound.

I also ordered two color-changing light cubes for my room which are now hanging from my ceiling. They add a nice ambiance but can be annoying to switch off when I’m tired and feeling lazy though. OH WELL! I still love them.
