Sandy the Pink and the Teleswap
Sandy, a year-long study-abroad student from the semester before me, left on Tuesday around 5PM, following about three solid days of saying goodbye to various people. Sandy and I think we met once in line for a Super Smash Brothers Melee tournament at Sakura-con two years previously, but we have no proof either way.
Sandy has been organizing a large portion of the get-togethers, parties, and most things with more than one person this semester, and acted as a mutual friend for almost every study abroad student. Aaron Poulliot, of my Central Washington University, came up with the idea of putting together a scrapbook for him, to which I was invited to contribute. I don't know if he liked my page or not, but I had fun making it.
We agreed that his empty room wouldn't make good use of his 24"-ish TV, and that my 13" would suffice just fine, so I talked to my manager, who happily let me borrow one of the Paradole dollies and I wheeled my 13" over. This was the embarrassing part, since the dolly and the TV weighed no more than 20 pounds.
But on the way back, I was sure glad for that dolly. You can see my fairly new TV sitting on the bed in the picture at right, on the left.
That same day, the manager came and fixed my lights, one of which had begun to flicker. So naturally, he just replaced all of them. With the stuff that was going on, my room became a bit of a mess, as you can see. Most of the mess is at the far end and looks smaller in this picture do to distortion correction, but it looked pretty bad.

Nice TV, the better for playing DDR with.
That is a bit chaotic for your room, but the ladder and all gives more of a perspective of the actual size of that room than some of the other pictures you've posted.
I REALLY like this comment format better, mainly in that I like being able to access the post while typing. The other format was slightly easier to read everyone's comments, but overall this one is better. :)
Nice white balance on the photo.
Yeah, I was playing with a new flash mode.
I'm guessing your room is clean at most times? It looks like you have things very organized.
Also, is there a way to get follow up comments sent to your gmail? I knew how to do it with the old format, but I'm kind of lost with this method.
