a cozy morning of coding | setting up my side project!
good morning friends! today i’m gonna spend a few hours before the day officially begins to get started on a brand new side project. i find it really hard to work on my side projects during the day because i have to work and by the end of the work day i’m EXHAUSTED, so today i’m gonna try to have a productive morning and get to work! i am unfortunately very much not a morning person, but i will say, having this quiet time to myself was kinda pleasant. :)

Mouse Pad - https://amzn.to/4eeV1Vo - i like it but wish i got a bigger one
Monitor Light - https://amzn.to/44sQc8M - no complaints, love this! Has brightness and temperature settings which is cool (no pun intended hehehe)
Philips Hue light bars behind my monitor - https://amzn.to/43Yqrx1 - i got mine secondhand on fb marketplace since they’re kinda expensive, but i do love these lights (and the philips hue lighting system in general!)
Wrist Rest - https://amzn.to/3DznQiu - cute clouds! don’t get brown bc it kinda looks like poo…
Keyboard - https://amzn.to/41ZTO1B - i love how the keys feel but wish it was bluetooth bc the wire is kinda annoying, it’s also usb-a and not usb-c
Chair - https://amzn.to/48zre8x - i love that this chair lets you sit criss cross, but it hurts my back a bit if i sit in it for too long! i only recently started noticing this bc i spend a lot more of my day sitting - Desk stand - https://amzn.to/4fqdbnY
below are the products i couldn’t find online, but i'm linking similar products :(
Desk - https://amzn.to/4hGQo9A
Monitor arm - https://amzn.to/3NUK940
Monitor - https://amzn.to/48wRQXH - i also got this off fb marketplace! super sturdy monitor but i think you should buy this secondhand if you can! def more worth it especially since lots of ppl just don’t need their monitors so there’s usually nothing functionally wrong with it
