Yeah, my sister, my friend, and I were pretty worn after all the moving was finished. I moved the Wednesday before Welcome Weekend, and my room is just now starting to take shape. When I moved up here from my great hometown, Fredericktown, I had no furniture except a lamp and a bed, which currently has mix-matched bedding because I'm waiting for my bedding to be shipped to JCPenney. I bought a folding table Tuesday (08/22) from Target with one of my gift cards from graduation. I am using it as a desk/nightstand. Most of my things are on my floor.
I'm one of those people who imagines some item in my mind, then goes out to try to find it. I have a theme for my room and a visual picture of how it ought to look. After spending excessive time and energy looking for my "dream" bedding, I finally settled for the first comforter I liked at JCPenney, and I'm sure I about drove my family up the wall. I approached my search for a bookshelf a little differently. I actually looked online with no preceding ideas of what it should look like or be made of and found something rather quickly. Hmm...
Moving was more than I had bargained for. EVERYTHING, absolutely EVERYTHING had to be moved. Just think about all the little things you have in your room--all the things you have stashed away behind bookcases and desks and underneath your bed and in your closet. Oh, it can be stressful! My advice is that should you need to move all your things to a new location, you begin with A PLAN. Planning is so important in moving because it can save you lots of energy, time, and sometimes money.
My friend's mom hired a moving truck to move our large furniture, which helped tremendously. We used the family truck for most of the other items.
Once everything is moved in, you're not done. You have to unpack EVERYTHING! Have fun. That's one thing I didn't have to do since I didn't have hardly anything to move. My roommates had to do it though, and they didn't seem overly excited about it. I guess it's what you make it.

Moving can be irksome, I just did it myself. It is now a month later and I am still putting stuff away
