Things discovered while moving
I spent all of last weekend and part of this week packing, moving and then unpacking.
Moving is just terrible. But, when you find yourself in a FABULOUS apartment, with THREE giant closets, a south-west view of Toronto from your balcony and a north view of a beautiful old church and park from your bedroom, as well as the most giant kitchen (with an ISLAND) that ever existed, moving is rather worth it.
But, you find things - sometimes long-lost things you didn't know you were missing. Such as:
1. A purple scrunchie
2. 17 USB memory sticks
3. All of your papers from University (yikes. My writing was BAD)
4. 8 different spiral bound notebooks, many with scribbled beginnings of many unfinished fics, and some with sections of CIC (that were either incorporated, or dropped from the plot)
5. An entire external harddrive that you'd thought had been retired to electronic heaven, only to discover that it contains copies of: It Started with a Kiss, Meteor Garden and, most importantly, Mars! Guess what I'm doing this weekend? Overdosing on my favorite scenes from my absolute favorite dramas, that's what! (well, besides all the unpacking and organizing I need to do)
This is the first place I've lived in where I feel like I have a shot of living a lifestyle that resembles that of an adult. I'll be able to, GET THIS, invite people over for dinner, and have enough storage space in my kitchen so that I will be able to own place settings for more than 4 people. Isn't that just INSANE??
