Settling In

It's taken me a few weeks to settle in the new apartment, but considering what it looked like when I first moved in ...
and what it looks like now...

it's come a long way. On cold winter days like today it feels cozy and warm, on warm sunny days it feels open and bright. I've never liked to study at home (I prefer a coffee shop, bookstore or library), but this apartment feels different and I find myself being more productive when I'm home even though there are plenty of distractions (walking up to and opening the fridge every 15 minutes, taking naps, playing guitar, etc.). At least I don't have a TV yet...
