Moving mania

So I'm in the process of moving out of my parents house, a very comfortable mansionesque place, and into my own little room/hovel in the basement of a town house a stones throw away. Maybe it just going through change but I keep getting these little bursts of panic thinking things like... "I have too much stuff and it's not going to fit! I can't take all of my books with me... I have no furniture besides my bed and desk... I need to buy a clothing rack... Can I get a wardrobe, two dressers, a 13" wide cabinet, and a tv unit for under $20? I have to rummage through storage to find my crock pot..."

I got to thinking last night about my furniture situation. Here is the thing, my room doesn't have a closet so I think I'll use ikea to solve that one. I like their cheap chic ways. And, as far as the tv unit goes I'm going to make one out of cardboard. Seriously. I think I can do it in a day. I'm drawing up plans this afternoon and will go on the cardboard and glue hunt later today to start. I have a concern, though, about making a cardboard Entertainment centre/shelving unit... will it actually look good or ghetto? There is only one way to find out my friends.

There is only one way to find out.

Update August 14- who is kidding who? I'm not going to be able to make a trustworthy tvunit out of cardboard in one day. Televisions are heavy. That kind of project takes time, research, and engineering. It also takes a lot of time with an olfa knife and glue. It was genius at the time though.
