She kept the black countertop but replaced the cupboard doors with brown ones with black handles. She also bought a new bed and bedding, a couch and a brand new TV, which she placed at the top of a table.

She shared in her post's caption:

"I borrowed an old bed, but today I'm here. 20-21 years old. It took me seven to eight months. We all can do it, no matter the age."
