Homeless
Not really. But I am going to leave here, and I don't know where I'm going yet. I've been expecting to write this since this happened so I'm not suprised. Unfortunately I'm not any better prepared for it. Basically my ex feels uncomfortable with me sharing her house (and who could blame her?) and her parents wonder why I'm still living here eating all the food. Obviously they don't realise that I have nowhere to go.
That's a big lie too. I could probably arrange to occupy somebody's spare room in York. I could even head back north to go live with my parents. But I'd probably rather eat my own legs. See, York just isn't as nice during the summer. It's nice and sunny, and there's something in the air... But nobody's around. There's nothing much to do. If I go back I'll literally be sitting in a bedroom, practicing guitar and waiting for term to start.
Which just drives me nuts if I ever get sick of York during term - when I know that I can't easily leave.
Even after a year Cambridge seems new and interesting. more so now because I've never really seen it on my own, only with my ex. I can actually choose where to live, where to go, I don't know why, it's just so different. I need to find somewhere first though, and all the horror stories of York students being hospitalised by bed lice infested mattresses spring to mind...
To facilitate my move, I'm selling everything I own on ebay. I guess I'll just have to make do with my laptop, my collection of 700 discs, 2 guitars and my books :-D I really have a lot of stuff I've needed to sell off for a long time, partly as a result of of a past stab at a business in recycling broken electronics.
Anybody with an idea of roughly where would be a good place to live in Cambridge for 2 months, or roughly how much I can expect to pay, or even just any encouraging words would be appreciated. :-)
