Birthday 2008



I had a great birthday and got some nice stuff for my new apartment. A very nice pillow that will fit my red sofa, that I've seen at ILVA. I got some very beautiful roses and in the evening, for dinner, we had SHRIMPS!

Apartment hunting

I have just returned from England. I spent 2 days hunting for an apartment in and around Canterbury. It was quite a daunting task and I looked at 13 different apartments. Friday was a rainy day and the agent and I drove around to Deal, Sandwich, up to Ramsgate, and the back to Canterbury. There were a few nice ones, but none that I really liked. On Saturday we walked around in Canterbury and I found a very nice apartment. It's outside the city center, but only about 0 min walk from it. It has 2 bedrooms, a small ktichen, and a very nice living room.

I also drove for the first time on the left hand side and it went well. Only a few detours when trying to figure out the round about system.
