Okay, well, actually that's not true at all. My room does not have a view. Unles you count that as being a view into my next door neighbor's living room. Which, to my mind, counts as not having a view at all.
Nonetheless, I have moved in, finally. I have my own bed, dressers with drawers, and massive bookcases that actually house all of my books! I will now be able to being calling people to chat without being rude and talking in front of people. I will be able to get online on a regular basis, to watch tv, to go for walks and runs and live a normal life. I know that this doesn't sound incredily exciting, but it is. I have to go shopping and get soap, towels, food, etc., but for the moment at least I have somewhere to live.
My room is tiny, very very tiny. I have a bed and two dressers, and honestly couldn't fit aything else. If someone wants to come and visit, they either have to sleep in the living room on the sleeper sofa, or curled into a ball on my hardwood floor. Or, what I recommend, make a real visit out of it, and stay at a New York hostel in Manhattan. Personal recommendations. Also, there are huge bookshelves in my room, so it's like a dream room for me, with all of my books within easy reach, and plenty of room to get more. Oh, I'm in love.
I begin student teaching tomorrow, and I'm mildly terrified. I'll be teaching in an English language classroom, at least, so that much will be nice. And then it's just the month of July, one month, and then I'm free, free, free for two weeks. So, look forward to seeing me, all of those of you who live in A2 or GRap. Yes, Gen, it looks like your prediction may be true and I may be back in Collegetown before spring break. Thank goodness, because I miss all of you!
So give me a call sometime, let me know how your life is, etc. etc. Until then, I am happily unpacking and getting used to living in a brand new place. I love you all!
