On my own...literally!

Okay, so I really am ON MY OWN. None of my roommates have shown up yet (the one who has is in Minnesota, so I haven't met her). The apartment managers weren't home all day yesterday when I actually came to move in, so the assistant manager let me in. I just crossed my fingers and prayed I was in the right apartment. The managers were back today, so I went down and got a key. Let me tell you, it's awfully nice having a key to where you live. I kinda feel welcome now :)
So far living on my own has consisted of:
  • Unpacking my room (which took an hour tops).
  • Reading The Merchant of Death by DJ MacHale for about 56 pages
  • Falling asleep at 7:00 thinking I was just going to take a brief nap
  • Waking up at 11:30 and convincing myself to read my scriptures, write in my journal, and say my prayers
  • Falling asleep again
  • Waking up at 8 and deciding to get my lazy butt out of bed (I was almost disgusted that I slept for 13 hours!
  • Sitting around and playing my iPod, talking to Maci for 30 minutes, and Mom for 20
  • Convincing Maci to bring my straightener with her to Pocatello because I left it (she was doing a driver's lab and the teacher wasn't that thrilled that they had to stop to give me my straightener)
  • Getting myself presentable
  • Going to the IT help desk to get my laptop configured to the school's wifi
  • Trying not to die laughing when the guy said, "Maybe I have the wrong computer code. Not LIKELY, but I guess it's been known to happen...I have the wrong code." When he couldn't get it to connect.
  • Messing around on facebook
  • Blogging :)
Anyway, I posted some pictures of my apartment for your enjoyment. Maybe I should go think about getting myself some Spaghettios for lunch...but first I have to walk back to my apartment :P
This is your first view of the apartment. Definitely a college apartment,
but who could ask for better for 150 a month? Not me!
I'm not picky :)

Here's the kitchen. There's another fridge on the opposite wall and some
shelves just around that wall there on the left.

All those post it notes on the wall have quotes on them...from
the girls living in the apartment. I can't wait to add to it! And I also
can't wait until I actually get what half of them mean!

Here's my room!! Yes, those are ORANGE utility storage shelves :)

Is there any question whose bed this is? Orange and purple
all the way :)

TV cabinet with an ORANGE lamp and ORANGE flowers :)

  1. What, you're not engaged yet?!

    Okay, just kidding. You're going to have a great time in college, don't spoil it on boys! (At least not your first semester. I'm not a hypocrite.) I'm proud of you!
