Movin' On Up
Aaaaaalllll right there sportsfans, I know you have all been pining for a tasty slice of my blog, but I have not been in the kitchen, or when in the kitchen, have not been in the mood to cook. Convoluted analogy aside, I have been quite busy and as such have not had a ton of time to devote to my bloggings and such. However, I am back (sort of a hint as to the particular flavor of this blog) and rarin’ to get back in the “kitchen”.
Ironically, this blog has nothing to do with cooking, kitchens, or food whatsoever (despite my overuse of the theme in the first paragraph). In fact, I am here to talking about moving back in. For the last three years I have been moving in to campus housing to live for the year. However, this is my first year making “the move” off campus. I have had some fantastic times living on campus, and I HIGHLY recommend it. Especially you freshman, y’all are in for a treat living on campus your first year but for me it was the year to finally make the move off campus.
Anyways, I said I was moving off campus, and technically I am not in “on campus housing” but I am geographically practically “on campus” as I moved into the apartments known as The Wilshire House. It is located right behind California Dreaming and the other end of the Assembly Street walking bridge to the Strom. If you are having trouble picturing where it is, you’ll get the hang of it after you get here for a few days, trust me.
I started this “Great Move” back on Monday with the big help of Mom and Dad who came out for the move in, along with my roommate Ryan and our friend Chad. All it took was a moving truck, some eager sets of bodies willing to move, and about five trips up the elevator to get all of stuff moved in. I say moved in, but it was more along the lines of getting everything within the walls of the apartment. Once that was done, Ryan headed back to his home in Greenville and the real fun began as the unpacking and “putting away of everything” commenced.
In actuality, it was a lot of fun deciding how I wanted to organize my room, and putting together my furniture (another story altogether!) and when I took my parents to the airport on Tuesday, there was still a lot to be done. Even as I sit here and type this for you, there remains a few things yet to get done around our place, but I am pleased with how it is all coming along and I promise some pictures once we get it all finished, hopefully some time before school starts! Glad to be back in “the kitchen” and I look forward to much more. Take care!
