I'm also a grad student. Which means I'm poor, I'm often up to my ears in reading and/or writing, and as a result can be very distracted at times. Our apartment has a really great office in it, we painted it all pretty and everything. I have a great desk and an awesome tech setup. And yet this is my work space. At least right now. The office I share with my husband more frequently acts as our "crap we need to get out of sight but don't have time to find a real place for yet" room. As a result, the door is often closed, and I always have to move at least 3 things out of the way to get at whatever I printed (my brother is an IT god so our apartment is also almost entirely wireless. I am so spoiled) Last week I was up to my eyeballs in a research paper for my last class (I only have one class per month, and it's an all weekend affair... like the reserves!) I was struggling with getting my thoughts focused on this thing, so this is what my husband came home to that day from work... I had completely taken over the dining space... table, floor and walls... flip charts, class handouts, inspirational quotes, the whole shebang. It was crazy.
Maybe I should make a goal of being able to repost this topic in a month, with a photo of our office back in functioning order!! :o)
