I store some if my stuff under my bed but not in a messy way. I don't have drawers so I use plastic bins that are big but pretty short for clothes and you can cover it with a duvet or your comforter/blanket or whatever.
my bed has no under storage and itโs a tragedy. considering looking into different bed frames that give me storage options bc i miss hiding things under the bed
So it's easier to pull out once you dump alot of stuff in, if you're looking for basic storage. I recently got a floor to ceiling clothes rail though, because I wanted to put my not-clean-not-dirty-yet clothing on something other than The Chair (and actually sit in said chair to work lol), since drilling into the walls is not allowed.
i recommend big plastic ones that can go right underneath like the one linked. i also have an ikea โmalmโ type drawer for under the bed but if you ever get off the bed too quickly and hit ur legs the bruises areโฆ something else. better for the boxes to go right underneath
i moved constantly in college and this guy changed my life. they're super cheap, you can put tons of stuff under them, and make moving so much easier.
honorable mention: those big plastic bins from ikea. they're like $10 and way stronger than a box. just dump random crap into them and deal with it in the new place (plus you can see what's inside)
Knowing that seasonal depression isn't coming for me or any loved ones is a big one. I love wearing shorts. I love having a full day. I love that there's this opportunity to plan things ahead of time without being worried about not knowing the weather. I love the sun. I love the smell of sunscreen and chlorine on a beach towel. I love ice cream. I know it gets REALLY hot sometimes and humid and there's mosquitos but something about all the nuanced things that make up this season make it worth it.
I'm kinda loving this. I'm in the stages of being super confused and not understanding what's going on but this is nice. I like how slow it is on my computer I'm SO excited to slowly (but surely) get that instant gratification need out of here
I tend to think like this and start to spiral. It's so easy to believe it's in your best interests to ruminate about these things bc they're factual and out of your control. Rewiring your brain takes time but I found this youtube vid that made me forget about all my external anxiety and feel hopeful for the next couple hours. (I went into this thinking it would be dumb and do nothing but waste my time)
