Movin’ On Up
Where I call home now won’t be much longer as I will be moving out of my parent’s house. I find it funny how I’ve been looking around for an apartment big enough for all of my stuff when I’ve managed to fit most of it in one room my whole life. I’ve been looking forward to this moment ever since I can remember…not saying I didn’t have a great life at home with the rest of the fam, but I’m a pretty independent person. However, I’m just starting to realize how much I’
m really going to be responsible for. As my leasing agent put it, if someone decides to throw themselves off my balcony…I’m responsible for it. If my cat decides to bite someone’s ankle…I’m responsible for it. I’m really not worried about either of those situations actually happening but hey the world is full of surprises. Little Luigi has a good temperament I would say.
My boyfriend will be my roomie and who knows what he’ll bring to the table with his poker-playing, WOW obsessed friends. I’m quite excited knowing that I have my own personal office though where I can shut out any nonsense that might be going on. I’m not one to be bossy or anything but the second he said that he wanted to put the Master Chief Collector helmet in the main living area…a girl must draw the line somewhere…
It’s a whole new chapter in my life if you want to get all cliché about it. It’s crazy knowing that I have to pack up everything I’ve collected over the past 21 years of my life in seven days in the midst of school, my internship, freelancing and my regular job. Not to mention I haven’t seen the bottom of my closet in years…so that’s a whole venture in itself.
I figure I won’t have any time to decorate until summer rolls around…but when that time comes I can finally put all of that useless stored knowledge those home design shows have given me to good use.
