Submitted to Contest #97

There comes a time in every girl's life where they stumble upon Pinterest and get the urge to move their entire bed frame to sit right under the window. And it's almost always worth it. And usually during the day time alone, I would lie on my bed, watch out the window and take a power nap in the afternoon. But for the first time ever, I decided stupidly, to experience night life.
