My room didn’t have anywhere to put books in an ordely fashion, so in anticipation of the lot of textbooks I’ll be buying next week I had to get a bookcase.The natural choice then was to go to IKEA.

I settled for a smallish “Expedit”, 79×79 cm. I really wanted the birch-colored to go with the desk but they were sold out. The white one would have to suffice. It was quite interesting to travel home with a 20-kilo box using only public transportation at nine o’clock, but thanks to the amazing ZVV and SBB (more about that later)  I didn’t have to wait many minutes at each transfer.

The result is pretty good. The bookcase did a lot to alleviate the nakedness of the room, it looks much better now.
