Moving stuff day

the semester ends abruptly when i came out from lorch hall after taking my last exam. looking back the days of the winter term, it was as if the only thing i have ever done during this period is study, study and study...so pathetic. and even so, i can't imagine what my results will look like...
it was supposed to be fun considering all the academic pressures have been removed. yet, there are still a lot of things to come. to name a few, the impending chaos upon moving out, the still cloudy prospects of getting the jpa full allowance (crucial for my getting a car), a writing test and a road test to be taken, and the ultimate concern of my which dwarfs all the previous events...my SOA first exam...(which will be held on the 25th of May). so there goes my supposingly carefree and relaxing post-exam period. more tension and cruel realities are awaiting me in a not so distant future...

so, as for a poor freshman like me, (who has no car, and not of a gender which has assets to get assistance from the opposite), moving out to a new place is almost an ordeal. first of all, i have to pack all my stuff into boxes, and that itself had already given me enough headache. then, i have to get transportation to move my stuff from north to central campus. i am truly grateful that a senior of mine (wei heong is his name, a sohpmore) was kind enough to let us share some space and time of the truck he rent (with eric driving it).

we (renjie and i) started moving out our stuff at 1pm. i had a total of 16 boxes (not all of them in the same size, in fact most of them were quite small), 2 luggages, and a fridge. with the assistance of qunfeng, we managed to finish it in quite a short while. after moving our stuff, we proceeded to help ivy moving hers. we loaded all our belongings on the truck, and set out without any delay. we went to ivy's house first, then to mine and renjie's. oh yeah, i forgot to mention about my new place. it's on the third floor of a house, an attic like place. the ceilings are low, but it has 2 bedrooms. the apartment is quite cool as there's a window which you can crawl through it to the roof, which is connected to downstairs by a series and flights of stairs. (i will show it in pic later) upon moving all our stuff to the living room, we paid the owner (a sweet looking but typical american girl in her junior year) 210 dollars by check (my first check!! 200 for rent, 10 for utilities)

after settling all the things, we went back to baits 1 to stay for another night. we visited wei heong's room on our way back. got to know a lot about couzen hall. informative trip i would say...haha.
