I went shopping for new furniture yesterday but had trouble deciding which bed to buy. I saw lots of nice beds, but only two of them I really liked. They are different and would both work, depending on my mood of the day. One bed has four posts from which I could hang fabric to create my own tent in my room. The other bed has a bookcase headboard. I could use it to keep my books and homework nearby, and it would give me a place to put my glasses at night. They cost the same.
