What a week that was.
So, I'm moving out of my place. Burn_bomb and his roommate are moving out of their place. Their one friend is moving out of her place somewhere in Alberta, and another one may be moving out of his place somewhere else in Alberta.
...and we're all moving in together! There are two parts to the thinking/feeling about this, so I'll break it down:
part A) The not so happy thinking/feeling part would be that what was first going to be a search for a 2 bedroom somewhere DT or in Kits (easy), turned into a search for a 3 bedroom in those areas (not as easy, but not too tough), and now seems to have turned into a search for a 4 bedroom (...not easy.) In addition, said 4 bedroom would be lacking 1 roommate for 1 month, and that person's portion would have to be covered by the other people...one of which being me. Who does not have the money (or inclination) to cover any of that person's portion. This is, of course, if it's possible to find a 4 bedroom in a desired location...which is by no means definitely possible. Otherwise, it's a 3 bedroom...between 5 people...which means, luckily, that the two other boys would split the master, and Alex and I would share a standard 8x10-ish room, with two computer desks, 2 bookshelves, a dresser, and a bed. Yeah, not so fun, really. Yes, I am perhaps being gloomy and pessimistic...we could indeed find a lovely place with plenty of room for a decent price. But, we shall see. There's going to be some discussing, I suppose. In the meantime, we're looking at a couple of 3 bedrooms on Sunday.
part B) The happy thinking is that - Yay! I'm moving in with a boy that I happen to be quite fond of. I've never lived with a boy. It shall be educational. But overall, I'm very excited. I'm excited to have a place that feels like home, a place that can BE a home. Basically, I just have this warm, happy feeling inside. Mmmm, happy.
I think I shall go drown myself in the shower a bit, now.
Cheers, over and out.

Well I certainly hope you find what you're looking for. Houses like that probably aren't easy to find. Good luck!
