My apartment building has an international bank, a dry cleaner, a convenience store, several coffee/sandwich shops, a massage studio, a dentist, a skin care clinic and a gym (so far). Talk about conveniences at home! Discovered that (A) there is a new W50,000 bill ($50-ish) since my last visit when we went to the bank machine downstairs (B) the man at the convenience store on the 2nd floor speaks quite a bit of English, (C) Cherry Coke is almost as good as Cherry Pepsi, and (D) Ramyeon is indeed a sufficient breakfast food (at least when it is accompanied by (C)) (E) I really need some dishes so I can eat some real food at home!
Today is moving day, the day I get to move into the new-new apartment that's really mine for the next year. I can't really explain how happy that makes me, and how much I can't wait for the afternoon to get here! My own place, that sounds gooood. Of course I don't know what time the Boss and his pal are coming, and he asked me not to put my day/plans on hold to wait for him... he said he and his friend would move everything, but I really hate to leave it all! I've got everything crammed (mostly) back into suitcases and bags so it's as easy as it can be. I wanted to take Mags and go explore a bit more today. We need more soft food for her (she's refusing her hard food and I'm indulging her by mixing the 2 together), but otherwise would just like to see what's out there. Tonight I have dinner plans with a friend from my old school, which I am much looking forward to. We'll be in my city as well, so even if we go to norae-bahng (karaoke) or something afterward I'll still be able to get home easily!
Well, I'm itching to get out of my apartment, so I'll head this over to the PC room (can't wait for internet at home!) and check my facebook and such. Oh, and it seems that I might need a card reader as the cord I have that I THOUGHT was for my camera isn't (NO idea what it's for really), and I can't upload my pictures to my computer!! Hopefully the right one will be in my bags when I unpack later... otherwise, I guess, stay posted!! :) I hope you're having a wonderful day as much as I am... off for more exploring, and thennnnn - Moooooooooooooving day!!!! Talk soon... S.
Love the blog! I'll be reading regularly - can't wait to see pictures of everything! Hope the move went well and your new place is GREAT!
ReplyDeleteI'm so happy you left me a note!!! Yay for Laura! :) I'm praying my camera cord is at home in my bags, but I'll find out tonight... off to unpack!!
ReplyDeleteAll I can say is that I'm glad I'm reading about these adventures after the fact. You know me... I would say you are taking tooooo many chances. Had a great day at the tournament today.Dylan's team did not win one game. For one game though it was a real family affair. Dylan was playing, Greg was coaching, Wes was reffing and Laura was managing.
ReplyDeleteGot a bunch of loot. Won the 50/50 TWICE, 10 free Movie rentals from Boyle Video. a set of 4 journals with the "Twilight" theme for the covers all packaged in a neat tin gift box and a set of 12 votive candles very similar to the ones in your bedroom here Sweetie.
I thought your apartment was supposed to be brand new. That is awful that it wasn't even cleaned for you. But you need the practice ... just kidding. You did a terrific job with cleaning at my place before you left which you know was much appreciated.
Firelynx said she will stop in tomorrow for coffee on her way home from Grande Prairie. It will be nice to see her.
3 years ago today I quit smoking. How about that!Day 3 for WW and doing great.
Don't ever forget how much I love you and think about you everyday. Looking forward to the pics.
Take care and stay safe PLEASE!!
Sounds like hockey was fabulous fun (though maybe not for Dyl!), congrats on all your loot, SCORE!! I'm having a great day, had to come back to the PC room to print an article off (no printer at home yet!) and saw your note. I really appreciate you stopping and leaving me some lines, I feel many many loved! You would be very impressed how clean my apartment is now, and a little shocked that it was by my own hands maybe! :)
ReplyDeleteI am SO proud of you for quitting smoking, you rock bigtime, and I'm very happy about the WW too, very very awesome!!
Love you much Mom,
