Hello everyone!
Let me go back to the entrance of the room.
I just got off work and decided to film this
room tour because I changed my bed sheets & cleaned my room last night.
To be honest, I don't mind you guys seeing my room in its natural state.
But my mom is in Hong Kong right now.
If she watches this video in HK and see my room being untidy, she'll definitely nag me.
So I tidied up my room to film this video!
I can also show this video to my mom as proof of the house being clean.
You can see my entire room in just a glance.
My small & cozy room is "plain" on purpose
because my family moves around a lot.
We might move from city A > B, or move within city A
and personally, I move between my home and my dorm room.
Even if I'm living at home for the time period, I would travel to a different city every weekend.
So I made the decision to stop buying things that aren't practical.
If it's not useful, I'm not going to buy it.
So you'll see that I actually don't have much stuff in my room.
Right when you come in, you'll see the slippers that I wear in my room.
I keep my outfit for the next day behind my door.
Then we have my bed.
I hung up these lights myself with these hooks.
The hook over there fell so there's just a long piece of dangling wire now.
I'll fix that later.
I keep the book that I'm currently reading by my bed.
Backing up here. This rug is from IKEA for $15.
Then we have my huge mirror!
This is where I put together my outfits.
There's more random stuff up there.
I keep some of my bags there.
I'll also keep my camera gear in here.
This closet fits a lot more than you'd expect.
I hung up this bulletin board right beside the mirror.
I hung up some polaroid photos.
I hung up my necklaces with these pins.
I only keep my most frequently used accessories here.
Then I have this makeup shelf unit. You'd recognize this if you watched my dorm room tour video.
I actually want to sell this shelf because
my room is generally brown/orange/yellow toned
since my favourite colour is brown.
So I think this shelf is a bit too colourful for my taste.
The shelf itself is also empty now.
I transferred all my makeup to these few drawers.
This desk was DIY-ed.
IKEA has a sale section for slightly broken / leftover pieces of furniture.
I saw this huge, brand new plank of wood in that section.
I absolutely love this light tan, Muji-like wood.
So I bought this plank of wood right away, and also got 4 table legs separately.
The legs weren't expensive so in total, this is cheaper than if I went out to buy an actual desk.
Also, I love it because my dad made it for me.
I barely have anything on my desk because
my laptop is always in my bag (since I'm on the go).
I usually have a 24 inch monitor here
but I moved it into our office room since that's where I do my work.
So I only have a few pens here.
Let's shimmy over.
Alright, oh my gosh this shelf <3
It was super inexpensive (because it was the floor model).
I have some random pieces of decor here.
Back here, I have a mason jar that I made silver.
I did an organic chemistry reaction in my lab to produce this silver colour.
I keep my stationary on the left.
On the right, I have my unopened cosmetics and eye shadow palettes.
Drawer one: Face products.
Then we have eye makeup.
My false lashes and contacts are in here.
My lip products are here.
Some of my books and binders are down here.
I keep my less frequently worn accessories in here.
I hung up this vintage style bicycle wheel.
Then I have photos of my friends and I up here.
This was my cozy room. I hope you enjoyed this quick room tour!
Anyway, bye bye!
