My god, has it been 7 days already? Well, stuff has been keeping me occupied what with moving and being sick and such. Yeah, I spent all my 5 days off from being in a varying degree of illness. Wasn't ever really sick, but not quite healthy either. Gotta love that.
But I managed to move my stuff... or most of it, with the help of mom. We took it fairly easy, and since I didn't have a lot of stuff really, at my little room, the whole deal was over with in no time at all. Only missing one box of wires, two chairs and the tv now. Will get that tomorrow after I've slept.
Different problems arose, of course, during the day of the moving, and these problems will have an effect on how fast I'll be living by myself. Technically I live in the apartment now, but my stepdad will stay there every other week as well, since he works two fulltime jobs every alternate week. But since he might have to move to a place of his own, I dunno if he'll depart the premises in a matter of weeks or, if he doesn't have to find his own place, matter of months. It's a little messy atm, but I guess it'll be ok. Just a matter of getting used to it, I suppose.
I'm settling in to my new, and so far, permanent abode now. It's good to be home, although I'll have to shake the feeling of being a visitor at mom's place. It's my place now, and I'll need to make the visitor feeling go away, and replace it with the "this is my home" feeling. It'll come around, eventually. I guess I just haven't really realized it yet. You know how you get something you've wanted for years, and then when you have it, the feeling you've imagined in your head for so long doesn't magically appear until after a few weeks. I think that's how I feel now. In the not too distant future, I'll start realizing it's my new home, and I'll start feeling it more. Also, most of the interior isn't mine. I'll customize the place forthwith. But I'm happy with a fully furnished apartment, as I can't afford all new stuff in one go. But it'll be nice to fix that in the coming years.
It's a roomy place, and I like having elbowroom around me. Been living in small quarters for ages now, and I'm enjoying the space. High ceilings, large rooms. And a view. Also, I can open windows now, without people being able to just climb in. And I don't HAVE to have the curtains drawn. This is the second floor. Many things are improved from where I lived before. I'll be alone, which is good and bad. But it'll be ok. I'll be just dandy.
I'm at work now, and it's boring as hell. Haven't managed to install much on this new laptop yet. I did get WinXP on there, and while it's nice to have something I'm familiar with, I do occassionally get the feeling that this box'd rather have vista installed. But I don't care. I'm off for the weekend, and I'll try to get stuff installed properly on here. 3Dsmax and photoshop and such. I'm liking the keyboard tho, which is nice. It's got some decent keys. Ok, right.. best be off. I'll catch you lot on the flippy side.
