More than a week here and I guess this place really is like what that guide was saying. I think I'm more or less settled in now though. Thank you for letting me stay with you and your roommates, Umi ( Read more... )

It's okay, Louise. I'm glad you're feeling comfortable with us.

And I don't think it's a matter of jinxing, really: I got sucked in while I was going home from school. Maybe this place just tries to get us when we least expect.

Mm, yeah. Your friends are really nice, so it's easy to feel comfortable,...even if I'm not exactly used to living like that.

It seems like it though. Either that or it's a coincidence.

Really? So it's different for everyone?

I was just on my way to board my plane to go to Spain to go see my family, when I ended up in this place instead.

I get what you mean. Sharing a flat with four plus people doesn't exactly make for losta privacy, huh... Don't tell the guys, but I feel that way too, sometimes.

Um. I wish I could figure it out! I heard of many people who were on their way somewhere and ended up here instead! So maybe that's how it works...

alleviatingly April 16 2009, 03:03:41 UTC

Yeah it doesn't-- in my case I'm kind of used to having my own room and such, but that's probably from how I grew up. ...Don't worry, I can keep a secret

...Maybe. I guess that would be another one of those mysteries of this place or something.

soulofocean April 16 2009, 03:07:48 UTC

Well, I relate! I think we got that in common.

At least neither of us ended up dumped inside the fountain like some of the guys said they were. That'd have been a bit too much for me to handle just upon arriving.

1/2 alleviatingly April 16 2009, 03:13:23 UTC

Ah, we do?

2/2 alleviatingly April 16 2009, 03:14:25 UTC

Inside the fountain? Wow. That sounds like a horrible way to arrive to this place.

I guess we both are lucky that didn't happen to either of us.

soulofocean April 16 2009, 03:19:55 UTC

Guess so! In that we're both used to having our own rooms, I mean.

Yep! Drowning is definitely NOT my idea of what a warm welcome should be like!

alleviatingly April 16 2009, 03:36:59 UTC

Oh, you're right. I guess that does give us something in common.

Same here, I definitely prefer the way I arrived compared to that.

soulofocean April 16 2009, 03:42:15 UTC

Give it time, though. I'm not gonna say you ever get used to this place, but it does get better not that bad after a while.

Anywhere you're planning to visit when you look around?

1/2 alleviatingly April 16 2009, 03:50:13 UTC

Mm, yeah. I guess I'll just make the best of it for now at least...

2/2 alleviatingly April 16 2009, 03:50:54 UTC

Oh. I'm not too sure yet. Any suggestions?

soulofocean April 16 2009, 03:54:01 UTC

Well... it depends on what you feel like doing! The Square's a good place to start. Then there's that beautiful park, Xanadu. There're also pretty decent places to eat around here.

Anybody sent you a guide?

alleviatingly April 16 2009, 04:01:44 UTC

Mm, yeah. I do have the guide.

Maybe I will start with the Square and then go from there.
