Jocelyn and I are “movin’ on up” to the...well, south. We signed a lease for our apartment in Maida Vale, London yesterday. We won’t actually be able to buy food for our flat (I’m kidding, Grandma!), but there are so many benefits to our new location:
1. No more scary night bus to get home if we stay out after midnight. We can finally take buses that won’t take over an hour and we could also afford a cab since we don’t live a million miles away from natural civilization.
2. We will be able to actually use our internet - not just pray it works, only to be disappointed. We should be able to use our instant messaging to chat (yay to everyone who has a MAC with a built in camera - or PC users with an external).
3. We’ll be able to move when we sleep - there will be a full bed, not a child-sized bed.
4. We will live near Drew and Starbucks so we’ll always have good stuff around us!
5. There are actually grocery stores and pharmacies and I’m sure there is a book store near where we live. No reason to have to walk a mile for any and everything that we need.
6. We’ll have a balcony.
7. We’ll actually live in London - not Harrow.
8. No more sharing a mini-fridge with seven other people. We can actually get enough food to last us more than three days!!!
9. No more fire alarms at 3 a.m.
10. NO MORE LIVING IN HALLS!
All around we think it will be a great thing!!! There is an extra couch where everyone can sit and we can entertain. If you are ever in our neighborhood...
