I live in an apartment and there are various types of furniture. I do not dislike any of them, but neither do I have any particular fondness of them, except one piece of furniture---my couch.

I first saw it on Tmall, several weeks after I moved into my apartment. The apartment was not spacious. I only had a bed, a chair, a small desk, and a bookshelf back then. But the moment I saw that couch online, I couldn’t help myself from buying it because its color is a perfect match with the overtone of my room. The warm brown linen brings me the feeling of woods and forests, and surprisingly it fits into the open space beside my bookshelf.

Basically, every day when I get off from work and come back to my apartment, I’ll definitely spend some time on my couch, mostly watching videos or browsing the internet. There were a few times when I just listened to some soft music while seating on my couch, doing a sort of meditation. And during the weekend, if I am not hanging out with friends, I choose my couch instead of my chair or my bed to sit on for the whole day, reading books because my couch is not that soft as that of my bed, but more comfortable than my chair, and it is the easiest place to fetch my books without making many moves. I guess that’s the biggest reason why I like my couch and rely on it so much. It just makes me relaxed and lazy as well.
