There’s something about a new office that inspires people to work - the smell of new cubicles, the feel of new air-conditioning units, the overall atmosphere. Just as any makeover seems to help forget past troubles, a new office brings a refreshing feel of work.

You see, this year the school decided to provide the teachers a brand new, air-conditioned office complete with individual cubicles - a very welcome reprieve from a day’s worth of lecturing, standing, confusion and chaos. It comes fully furnished with chairs and extra tables. All that’s left is for the teachers to decorate and customize their own private areas.

And since it’s my first time to personalize my very own office space, I was excited to customize everything. I would always ask andrea to take a look at office furniture shops whenever we go to the mall in order to check out the most appropriate trinkets and supplies to adorn my cubicle. So far, I was able to procure a desk organizer, a new set of clips, push pins, and a new pair of scissors. Next time we go to the mall, I’ll be getting some book holders, a cork board and a few other items.

Hopefully I’d get to finish decorating my cubicle next week.
