Ang Kurtina…
Our apartment has two bedrooms. One with windows but no cabinet, and the other has a huge cabinet but without a window. I chose the one with windows. Since I arrived in July, I did not buy curtains ‘coz I wasn’t able to find curtains that cost 500 yen (as if I could find these here in Japan). So I only bought two (2) 100-yen black blinds.

So I asked my mother to ship curtains from the Philippines! Of course I had things sent other than curtains. ^-^
When the package arrived, I immediately set up the curtains. The cloth design was not what I wanted but knowing my mother who loves vivacious colors, here’s how the wall (with the windows) look right now:
