"i dont think my mom is going to let me mount a press to the desk in my room"
Bolt the press to a piece of 2"x8" or 2"x10" lumber about 8" long. Use C-clamps to clamp the board to your desk. Make sure that the ends of the bolts do not protrude past the bottom of the board by countersinking them with a drill bit or by using T-nuts. Put a folded towel between the board and the desk surface before you clamp. That should eliminate the possibility of scratching, and allow you to have a removable press.
