We finally moved to our own place, YES!! so happy, after 2 weeks sleeping here and there, i finally unpacked my suitcases.
After city visit, we went back to BJ's house and took over Johnny D room. Turner (whose room we took last week) finally got his room back and he was so happy coz he doesn't have to sleep in the sofa, now Johnny D's turn, we made him slept in the sofa... (sorry Johnny).
Tuesday morning, we both were excited especially Shea... we moved to this new place in Darley road Manly, 2 minutes walk to ferry, very good area but not the best place to live. these old building apartment has 8 small studios and most of it are rent by Brazilian or students which during the weekend it turns to be a party house. ours is ok, with kitchen (most important), small toilet and good side bedroom. Shea scrubbed everything from the floor and toilet, he cleaned up the whole studio apartment, vacuumed, mopping, threw some old furnitures out and get new furniture in. i really wish we could live in the city (which we can pay half what we pay now) but Shea wants the beach and no bargain...
Only people with $$ can live here coz rents are so expensive, those people don't really care living in a small place as long as near the beach. we r poorest of the richest... how do i explain this.... ummm yes i always complain about the price.. all about the price and living cost. it just shocks me coz i come form Indo where everything is so cheap and here everything is 10x more expensive... even US is way cheaper than here...one times laundry can cost me bloody $10... ($5 washing and $5 drying) it's ridiculous i just can laugh while bitching when i do the laundry.. lol.
Yesterday night i finally could cook my own food for the first time without spending fortune just to get the meal... (most of the menu costs more than $15 here, except burger king or Mc. D for $5), break fast can cost $15-$20/each... we've been eating junk food for the last 2 weeks...n yesterday we finally be able to eat something green... we still have no internet and stable job, slow but sure we will.
now i can say Home sweet home!!!
ps: apparently they have gay channel here, so i've been watching this channel... while Shea giving me disgust look:)
