The Mother of all Updates Part 3: Living Arrangements
So I’m being kicked outta my house
Flatmates have sold up and are moving cities, which sucks, cos it’s been such an awesome place to live!! But it’s time to move on, for them, and me too I guess. I found some new flatmates, but they are stuck in hostels till November, so I gotta wait for them before we can look for a house to move into. BF (his name starts with I, so I can’t use his initial, too confusing!) kindly offered to put me up for a week or two. That’s now 2 months. The settlement date on the house got pulled forward. So.. living together after only 4 months of being together? Should be interesting! :S Last two bf’s I pretty much lived with from day one, so this is like a record for me haha. But I was envisioning maybe like a year or two down the track with this one…. It kinda works out well, one of his roommates is moving out, so I can rent the room and store my stuff in it. A pain to have to move twice too. It will be a good trial anyways, can see how it works out for 2 months! Then we’ll both be tied into flats for about a year, if we’re still together then, that’s about the time I would imagine we might look for our own place togther.
So that pretty much brings us up to date!! I would tell you about the new computer, but unfortunately it’s not that exciting (sorry Mary!). It essentially looks the same anyways, I just updated the system, it’s all fast and stuff, decent graphics card for when I can play WoW, and it doesn’t crash randomly while I’m flying on a hippograph! The annoying thing is I spent all my money on the computer and now the car breaks :/ I’m hoping it’s not too expensive (a clutch cable doesn’t sound bad right?! it’s only a cable…), cos I really can’t afford much right now. I’m soooo sick of the money thing. EVERY SINGLE TIME I get marginally ahead, something happens. Soon as the savings account looks healthy *bang*, it’s gone. New bed, car repairs/registration, new puter, more car repairs… that’s been the first 4 months of earning after uni finished. No chance of building up any reserves. I know they’re all kind of ‘luxury’ sounding items. But I gotta look after my back, hence the bed, no point having a car if it doesn’t go, so gotta fix it, and the puter was old and crashing….. I probably could have waited a bit longer…. hindsight is 20/20 though right?! Next thing I gotta save up a bond for the new place…. argh!!!
