While I'm Here Losing Sleep

In parting ways with home in a couple weeks for my new adventure in St. Paul, I have devised a personal form of trickery to make the transition a bit easier. It mostly consists of a series of trial and error that fits a basic if-then format.
Examples:

1. If I buy a mini rice cooker, I can have warm soup and next year won't be so scary.
2. If I go to Build-A-Bear and make a new collegiate teddy, I will have a new friend and next year won't be so scary.
3. If I find the perfect tapestry for my wall, I will be surrounded by pretty things and next year won't be so scary.
   
4. Red. If I buy more red, next year can't possibly be so scary.
   

You can find me on the fourth floor next year. I'm the whack-o in red eating steamed food with a teddy bear who needs a name. Suggestions taken via comments and Morse code.
