I posted this pic in a photoset before and honestly it deserves its own post - get her Eda!!
I'm either Jekyll and Hyde or Franknstein. Reblog to tag yourself!
If you're struggling with the cost of living right now (reasonable), this is your PSA to...
- Google universities/colleges near you.
- If you can't get out to more than one, look up which one has the highest tuition.
- Look-up when the graduation date is
- Drive neighborhoods near the university the week before graduation
So much stuff gets left out on the curb. Wealthy college students tend to prioritize convenience over money, so instead of carefully reselling their perfectly good stuff, they frequently give it away or put it out with the trash because that's easier than moving, reselling, or donating. Take advantage of this.
I furnished pretty much my entire apartment from college giveaways and yardsales.
What I got for free:
- Mattress and box springs
- 2 10 ft area rugs
- The massive 9-drawer chest (that has a label on the back that it was custom-made and shipped across the country) that my TV sits on.
- Two 13 x 2 ft raised garden beds
- My desk - just sanded it down and refinished it.
- Three short stools
- An organizer rack
- Watering can
- Tommy Bahama outdoor cooler (retails for $350)
- Chairs
- Shelves
What I got for cheap:
- Two futons for $50
- Custom coffee table with storage for $25
- Three tall stools for $30
Seeing all the tags where people are warning that picking stuff up OFF the curb is illegal in their area has the same vibes as the oranges in Grapes of Wrath, and I hope all your city councilmen get eaten by the live furniture from Monty Python.
this may or may not be a fantasy writing exercise for me. please reblog

reblog to give the person you reblogged this from a kiss on the forehead and a hug to let them know they did a good job today
the first day of my hand drafting class in my senior year of college, after the prof taught us how to frame up on the drafting table and went over how to use the tools we'd bought, he had us all take our pencils and make a mark on the top right corner of the vellum. then he walked us through the setup steps - the border, the title block, etc.
and he told us to erase the mark.
when someone - rosie, i think - asked what the mark was for he smiled.
"if you give a novice student an expensive, blank piece of paper, they panic. they think if i start using that i will ruin it. so the first thing i want all of you to do, any time you stare at a blank piece of paper, is to ruin it a little and take the pressure off yourself. pencil erases. anxiety has to be managed."
i hated that man for a myriad of reasons, but that was some of the best advice i've ever been given.
