Moving on...
Well its finally happening I guess. I figure since I started this blog right about the time I was moving into my (then) new apartment, I should probably at least give a post as I'm finally preparing to move out of it. I've been in my awesome place for 3 fantastic years now. It has by far been the best place I've ever lived. I have so many crazy memories tied to it. I honestly can not imagine what it'll be like to not live there anymore. But all good things eventually come to an end, right? I'm really going to miss my apartment.
But its not all sad times and sour grapes. Aaron and I are going to be moving into Nate and Molly's place as they have just bought a house! Very exciting! Theres quite a bit I could go over right there but want to keep this short so I'm just going to keep it personal :)
SO, what does all of this mean for me? Well I'm finally going to go through all my shit, organize, pack it up and store it until it time for me to make the Big move to Canada. I'm talking bare necessities here. I've always been such a pack rat. I have tons of stuff that I pretty much refuse to part with. But fact is Nate and Molly's place is not huge and Aaron and I need room to live. So this just makes sense.
Its going to be so awesome! Coming up on summer, we will have the sweetest pad for hanging out opening the wall (garage door in the living room :) playing games and having a drink. I think in a lot of ways its going to be like living in a dorm, which will be sweet cause I've always felt like I missed out on that having always been in an apartment during college.
With the way the house is layed out, Aaron and I are talking about splitting everything right down the middle so we both get a bedroom and living area to ourselves. So whenever we want to hangout, we can just walk into the other's place as it were :P
Another fairly obvious bonus I think will be getting to actually live with Aaron. We sort of did it once when he stayed with me in Portland for a summer. That was a lot of fun. And counting that time, Aaron has probably been the only roommate I've ever had that I didn't want to strangle at some point. :P
The biggest advantage for both of us will definitely be the super cheap rent. We'll be paying half of what each of us are paying on our separate places now. So we'll finally be able to start saving money and paying off our insane depts.
So thats it. The wheels are in motion. I'm really excited and admittedly a bit nervous to see how this plan works out. *crosses fingers*
