Home Sweet Home

I have only lived alone once in my life. It was several years ago, while I was attending school. I had a wonderful little apartment about 10 minutes from school that at the time I didn't fully appreciate. I now miss the quiet time that living alone generates, the not living with someone who creates a dictatorship over the thermostat, and not constantly being told were my things can and cannot be placed.

My biggest regret about my former little apartment is that I didn't give it the love it needed and I didn't really make it a home. Knowing it was only a temporary arrangement (yes I view three years as temporary) I barely decorated it. Instead I carried in only the essentials and basic furniture. Never during the three years I lived there did I hang a single item on the walls.

Being the girly girl I am I should have painted the walls pink and brought in every feminine detail I could think of. My apartment should have been filled with sparkly, glittery things and full of warmth and softness. If I am ever afforded a do-over when it comes to my own little place I will definitely do it right next time.
