Temporary Working Table

Working/Study table is essential, especially when you’re working with computers or laptops or taking down notes and sketching. It is hard to focus when you don’t have the right table to work and become productive.

Recently, I have decided to transition my career to User Experience Research. I spent most of my time with my laptop because I enrolled in some UX-free courses and started playing around using its tools, such as Figma and Adobe XD. Unfortunately, I don’t have a study/working table to set up my learning productivity system, yet I decided to improvise a table that can be useful to my learning journey.

I used to have a study/working table before, but my sister borrowed it because she is currently working remotely. I don’t have a plan to get it back because her work is more important than mine. Since I am still studying and practicing UX, getting a new working/study table isn’t necessary. Yet, I set that I will be rewarding myself with a new table once I finish the free courses that I am currently taking and when I get a job/internship remotely.

I have a side bed table that I don’t usually use, and I had decided to put a big empty box on it so that when I placed my laptop, the height was still tolerable. I use my bed as my chair at the moment, and everything works fine. Sometimes, I go to the dining area of our house to use the dining table. I am still blessed because I can still work on my progress for career transition.

I browsed my ideal table using the Shopee app because I planned to reward myself with a study/working table after my study phase. I am having a hard time choosing because they are all beautiful and affordable, but there’s this one table that caught my eye.

I like how minimal and affordable the table is. It also has a spacious surface to use and is easy to assemble. However, I haven’t tried ordering tables online before, and I am pretty worried about the missing parts, scratches, or damage to table pieces.

So that’s my ideal table ♥️ but for now, I am using my improvised table. Still functional and helpful for my learning journey. I can move it around and remove the box if I want to. 😂
