    If you're in Halls, you're fairly limited in what you can do Posters, photos, some nice bedsheets, cushions, things like that.

    A tiger cub: awesome fun, and if need be, you can always set it on that one annoying flatmate.

    ^^ See how it's practicing the run-up for the attack on annoying housemates, people who set the fire alarm off and leafleters? Awesome.

    Things that involve lighting are the best. Posters etc are standard and also have the downside of blu-tac/drawing pins leaving marks on the wall and ending up costing you deposit money.

    A fairly plain room without much clutter on the walls, can be transformed if you get nice lighting effects, my ex girlfriend had an absolutely beautiful room with pink/purple hue lighting.

    Oh yeah - and not an animal, it might be cute but it's probably going to make a small uni room smell and if its nocturnal it will be noisy at night.

    Re: What would be cool to have in your bedroom?
    I have no idea what I will do with my room in halls. I can't have candles, floor pillows, fabric wall hangings (which currently cover my bedroom) and only a few posters cos of fire hazards. Guessing fairy lights are a no go, and I know rugs are. My room is going to be ****. Might get some window things, so they'll look cool on the rare occasions light shines in. And I have an awesome lampshade, might do some substitutions. But if your halls are anything like the ones I'm going to end up in this September, you'll be wracking your brains for a while. Hmmm. I'll let you know if I come up with anything. Catch butterflies and set them free in your room? Or ladybirds. Oh! Pot plants!! Cool ones. I'm going to have daffodils.
