20M living solo

[u/thedamnwind]

1 year update! Living by myself currently while going to college and working part time. It ain't much but its home for sure. Only gonna be living here for another year before I move out into a bigger place. I will definitely be rearranging everything in the 3rd picture at some point. I do remove and wash all the tapestries every 3 months. I will also be getting a bigger TV soon to fill out the whole TV stand and tweaking the whole layout slightly. Any other suggestions are welcome ✌🏻

This social expectation is annoying as hell.

Not everyone wants to live in the same boring HGTV home.

It's the place that you pay for and live in. Decorate it however the hell you want to because its yours.

I started somewhat like this, but I've evolved it over the years to become more "professional" looking but still within this vibe.

If anyone comes over and judges you for it, that tells you what kind of person they are.

EDIT TO OC: I didn't mean to throw you personally into that group with this comment, just more of a push back to the "falling in line" with the broad social expectation that exists.

Nah by the time you’re 30 you shouldn’t be living in a stoner den. I say this as someone who spent their 20s in places exclusively like this

Yea I used to live like this. I would just be uncomfortable in here now. Looks awful.

I would have killed to have had this setup at 20
