I sleep on a crappy free secondhand mattress with a three inch thick, $100 foam topper. It's really amazing.

Hah, first time I've seen a paint-to-wood before/after on AT. Love it!

While a one-piece L-shaped desk may force you to angle your monitor, I've got a configuration in my dorm that doesn't waste any space. It's just a foot-wide shelf along one wall, with one end of my regulation desk pushed against it. I file all my papers in magazine holders on the shelf, right next to my computer.

The first picture is the only one that looks vaguely feasible in a dorm. The lampshade is cute (is that a tutu?); dorm lighting is pretty harsh.

The windows in my dorm let in lots of light, but their roll-down shades and black metal frames are really hideous. Thankfully, we're allowed to put holes in the walls. I picked up a sheer floor-length white curtain for $10 and cut a curtain rod from some scrap aluminum tubing -- my room instantly looked about 5x prettier.
