My Home Away From Home

G'day all! This morning I got the key to my new apartment residence and the key to my room in said apartment. For a university residence it is UNREAL. I love it. I found out today that it s Co-ed. and Bria was the first to point out that "That's generally how university residences are :P" however I dont just mean the whole residence.. I mean, well for example Village residence at brock is co-ed, and also apartments of 5, but girls stay in one apartment, boys in the other. In canberra boys and girls are in one apartment. ANYWAYS. its gorgeous. and clean and i'll post pictures when I have it all set up and ready. the weather here is collllld. I woke up this morning and it was -2. so i am QUITE pleased that i brought my jacket. I have put it to good use. and now, MOM, this part is for you cause I doubt that anyone else cares lol. I read on the website that it's a King Single bed. and I went out to buy King single sheets, so I am assuming they should fit :) Jeremy is lending me a "doona" or a duvet type thingo... LOVE you.
G'day Mateys of mine!
-Em xo.
P.S. My uncle the Baller (that means hes just overall unreal) and my cousin Ross the playa just left today. I said a farewell after they helped me move into my "ressie". I will miss them a lot. and my uncle has helped me TREMENDOUSLY with this adventure I am about to embark on and I could not be more thankful.

  4. Yes, make them neutral sheets....then you can wash with neutral colours.....So people were already living there? I thought it was new....

  5. OK--finally joined your blog. Tried to post a comment days ago, but it went into cyberspace.

    Sounds like you're getting settled. Saw pics of the res, clean and basic. Got a pic from ballin U.R. of sydney opera house, so they made it back.

    Did U.R. and Ross try to show you how to see an entire City in one day, on foot,for less than $1 a day? (My specialty) Or were they lost without me there to navigate the map and transit, and drag their sorry asses around from dusk to dawn, while they whine "mom's trying to kill us!"

    Be sure to recover this week from that gruelling epic trip, so you'll be ready for the excitement of starting classes next week!
