Shifting Paradigms

I don't know whether it's because I'm turning 30, or because I'm just bored with life in general, but I've decided to make some drastic (albeit cosmetic) changes to my life. The first, of course, is my hair. Whenever I feel the need for a change in my life, my hair is the first to feel the force of that change. The second is my room. I'm so over the whole "oak" look. It's tired, and I'm tired of it. I'm going to slowly be replacing the pieces of furniture in my bedroom for darker wood, simpler designs, although form does need to follow function in my case. I have limited space, and copious amounts of stuff to fill that limited space. So step one is putting up box shelves for my books. Step two will be to build the TV stand / unit to replace the wall unit. Step 3 will be to put up a wall shelf above that for DVD's / my dragons / whatever I can find to fill the space. Step 4 will be to replace my current computer workstation, and finally step 5 will be to sort out my bed. I want a headboard for it. I have much work to do to get my room in a liveable space, but at least I'm making a start.
