Moving in to a new space is always exciting! It’s a blank slate and a fresh start, but the task of fitting all of your things in to a small space while still looking stylish can be a daunting task. Here are my top ten ways to decorate your dorm room, and maximize your space! 搬到一个新空间总是让人很兴奋！一张白板、一个崭新的开始，但是把所有东西塞进这个小小的空间与此同时还要有保持有品有型却是个令人生畏的棘手任务。十大方法助您装饰宿舍房间，最大化你的空间！ 1. Look for easy places to decorate, that don’t take up a lot of room. The floors and the walls are perfect places to look to add décor without taking up valuable space. Area Rugs can make a space feel so much bigger and brighter, and they make cleaning so much easier. 1. 坚持简单装饰，不要占用太多空间。地板和墙壁是添加装饰绝佳的地方，而不会占用其他有价值的空间。小块地毯可以是整个空间看起来又大又明亮，而且清扫起来也轻松很多。 2. If you’re sharing a space, coordinate with your roommate. This can be an easy icebreaker if you don’t know the person you’re living with. You can coordinate colors and make sure you’re not doubling up on dorm room essentials, the room can only handle one futon, I promise. 2. 如果你和别人同住，和室友协调好。如果你对和你同住的人还不了解，这可是个打破沉寂的好机会。你们可以商量好色调，或是避免宿舍里不需要的重复生活用品。我敢保证，一个宿舍有一个就够了。 3. Loft your bed. If you have the option, this will definitely be helpful. It only takes one quick call to maintenance before you move in, and you will have so much more space to work with. Lofted beds can add storage and high lofted beds can be great to make space for a futon or desk! (WARNING: do not try to loft your bed yourself.) 3. 架高你的床（一体床——既上面是床，下面是书桌和书柜等），如果你有选择，这个绝对实用。只需要在入住前给维修处打一个简短的电话询问，你就能有更多的空间去施展。一体床增加了储物空间，而高高在上的床体节省下的空间足够放一个或是一张桌子。（警告：请不要尝试自己架高床体。） 4. Pack the essentials and avoid the clutter. There is nothing that makes a small space look messy and unorganized than clutter. No matter how styled your space may be, you will only see clutter. Try making a checklist before you pack and stick to it! 4. 打包必需品而避免杂七杂八的东西。没有什么比杂七杂八的零碎物品使一个狭小的空间看起来更脏乱没有条理。不论你的空间是多么的有风格，你也只会看到杂乱。试试在打包前写个清单，然后坚决严格执行。 5. Avoid making your mark…. on the walls. As a freshman you will definitely be making your mark on your new college campus, but that doesn’t mean you should mark up your dorm room walls. Use easy release hooks and sticky tack to hang anything up. Avoid nails, holes, and paint chips at all costs! 5. 避免在墙上留记号。座位新生，你肯定想要在你新的大学校园中留下记号，但是这可不意味着你应该在宿舍墙上画记号。请使用易拆卸的挂钩和粘钩挂东西。在任何情况任何代价下避免钉子、孔洞和喷涂色块。 6. Lighting is key. Brighten up your space with floor lamps. The brighter the space the bigger it will feel. Plus no one can write a paper in the dark. 6. 灯光是关键。用地灯增加房间的明亮度。房间越是明亮就会让人感觉越大。何况没人能在黑暗中写东西。 7. Bed spreads are the perfect way to add color. If you’re going to spend money on your dorm room décor, focus on your bedspread. It is usually the main focus of the room and always is a great place to add color. 7. 床罩是增色的好方法。如果你打算在宿舍装饰上花些钱，着重在你的床罩上。这通常正是房间的主要焦点而且总是加颜色的好地方。 8. Add Curtains. Decorating your windows with curtains will definitely be a great way to add color to a room you cannot paint. Plus you will want to hide from the sun on days you want to sleep in. 8. 挂窗帘。挂窗帘绝对是个为室内增加颜色的很棒的方法，特别是当你不能粉刷房间的时候。另外，在想睡懒觉的时候你会希望躲避太阳公公的。 9. Style is in the details. Find ways to make your dorm room special and personalized. From hanging photos to lining the insides of your drawers with great wrapping paper, these touches will make the place feel like yours. 9. 风格在于细节。找到方法让你的宿舍房间更特别更有个性。从挂照片到用极好的包装纸为你的抽屉打内衬，所有这些都会让这地方感觉更像是你的。 10. Most importantly, have fun with this new space! It’s going to be a place where you will make countless memories and learn so much. 10. 最最重要的，享受新空间吧！这将会是你满载无数记忆和学习的地方。
