Being a film major, I have a monstorous collection of posters, though I think I will keep it to a select few in the living room. (well, I'm kind of forced to because I think that film posters without frames just look tacky; and when they are in frames they look like they really "mean" something to you instead of just "look at this poster I found at the theatre")... As for furniture, I'll probably be picking up new stuff as soon as the paycheck allows, but for the time being I have my couch from the dorm (its one of those black-metal futon things that look VERY college), my bed/dresser from home. A pair of nice standing floor lamps and (I believe) a pair of barstools my parents don't want (for my kitchen counter)...I also think they want to give me one of the nice recliners..but I wouldnt hold my breath. My main annoyance is that its going to look pretty disorganized. Any ideas on how to make that dumb couch look less like what it is. I suppose the other option is to just buy a shelf or two in the same "black aluminum" as the couch and go with that kind of a blue-black modern thing. Meh. Good ideas for the cleaning though, hadn't thought about that. And I honestly didnt have a trash can on the list of stuff to buy...bleh!
