Saturday was significant. I moved almost everything I own (save what I need every day) to my new apartment 2 hours from here. My parents showed up with the U-Haul from their house full of one entire bedroom of furniture, plus most of another, and some odds and ends.
We had a fun time getting things in order: arranging the living room to incorporate a conversation nook and an entertainment area; making the guest bedroom into a music room/office, too; and washing and putting away all of my new Pfaltzgraff dishes. It's cute, it's roomy and I'm in love with this place.
There were two particularly memorable things that happened. The first was the putting together of the bookshelves, which involved an entire box of tools, 7 pieces of fake wood, 4 people, and one generous hole in the side of the shelves. I hope to never forget how it got there. The second was my early graduation gift, which was...A DIGITAL CAMERA!
I am so excited with this new piece of equipment and am quite sure my life is about to change. I have all week to read up on how it works and what types of settings it has, etc. Which is thrilling. Hopefully, my blog will soon sport more pictures, as I will no longer have to wait for someone else to send me the digital photos to post. I can do it myself!
It's almost as if nothing can phase me this week. And to top it off, my landlord gave me a rice cooker that is exactly like the one she has, which I have been using and raving about all semester. How thoughtful of her!
A great way to begin the last week of my first master's career.
