new living quarters...

I have moved recently. Into the busy streets of downtown Halifax, I now reside in a tiny attic room on a quiet side street.. close to my internship for school.

It's called renting a room. It's definitely different. You don't know your roommates - seeing as you found them on Kijiji... Met with them once, then moved yourself in.

How are my roommates? My roommates are french. All of them. Some french from Canada, some french from West Africa. I, on the other hand, am not french.. whatsoever. Maybe come September I will be bilingual? Who knows.

The room is nice. Spacious. Real hardwood floors. Shelves built into the wall - ( I Love Shelves!)
I brought with me a tiny single bed, an army cot if you would. It's on a metal frame with wheels, and the mattress sinks when I lay on it. Yesterday, the entire thing collapsed. It was funny.
My bed from home is much to large to move for only 2 months.

Last night was my first night in my new room. Had an okay sleep.. kept waking up thinking I was at home and had to keep reminding myself I was in my ' other ' home now. Know that feeling I'm talking about?

Woke up this morning and scrubbed the bathroom and kitchen. Oh.. I forgot to mention that there are 6 of us who live here, and only 2 of us are female. Therefore, you can imagine the state of the bathroom...

The bathroom is small and quaint. There is only one, for 6 people... yup.
The sink was dusty and toothpaste stained and the toilet was as well. Took an SOS pad to that! And now it's pretty and shiny.

There are also an abundance of playboy magazines sitting quietly on the floor of the bathroom? Not something I'm used to seeing at home.. haha.

I'm now finished cleaning.. and thinking about how I am going to spend my day.
I need to go to the store and buy: a toothbrush (forgot myne at home)
facewash( forgot that too )
a hairbrush ( yup.. forgot that as well.)

At 3:30 I get to see my handsome boy.
We are hanging out tonight, thank goodness. I miss him.. haven't seen him in a couple days.. besides yesterday, but he was only here to help me move and then he left.

Anyways, tonight should be fun and will consist of cuddling, eating, and bad choice in rented movies.

Love.
