Moving, Moving, Moving...Rawhide!
Jul. 30th, 2007 01:58 pmOkay, so the title is a bit weird, but it was what came to mind when silently chanting, "Moving, moving, moving" in my head.
I'm packing up home and hearth, and moving house -- again! Well, at least it's not a yearly event, as it was during my undergraduate years. *shudder* I've stuck it out in LA for two years now. Sadly, when you're not a total party-animal or clubber or have a partner, LA is rather lonely and isolating. There's so much to do, but I can't go to restaurants and cultural events by myself. I would feel even more lonely if I did that, and I couldn't enjoy my food or the movie or whatnot when I'm feeling like the only lonesome there. Ugh.
Plus, rent is hella expensive! It's nearly 3x what I would pay in graduate housing. To pay more and feel lonely is not worth it in my view. So, moving back to Irvine!
I've been posting ads on Craig's List to sell miscellaneous items that I don't use or need, and getting rid of furniture. I'm going to buy myself a REAL bed and a REAL desk for my "new" place. I think I'm old enough now. Tired of sleeping on futon mattresses.
