The place I rest my head

So I have the feeling that the only person that will read this blog of mine is Pari. Let’s see if anyone will prove me wrong? :)

So after entering my new humble abode I found myself with a chose, which room to take. There was one in the front left side, after looking in I saw a bunch of computer wires, a hub, and a router. So with out any more hesitation I walked down the hall into another room where I unloaded my stuff. Both rooms had full beds so that was the same. As I started to unload my stuff in the back right room I noticed that it had half the closet. Well I figured that I could handle some wires and stuff for twice the closet. My concern with the other room is that it is right next to the kitchen so if there where ever any late night parties, my room might be right next to it all. The other thing I did like about the other room is that it got more light during the day.

So after talking to the roommates I found that the net work stuff only works in my room. I was a little worried because both the router and the hub have blinking lights on them and usually I can’t sleep with a lot of lights. Ha, was I in for a surprise.

I love it how live can be so unpredictable. After meeting my roommates that whole party part is defiantly not a worry anymore, and nether is the blinking lights. Compared to lights out side my window, that flood into my room at night, the blinking lights are sparks next to a fire. Honesty, my room looks the same from about 9:30 p.m. to 10:00 a.m. It is kind of making my body feel a little confused.

I am hoping to have some pictures up about some of the things that I am talking about. That way it would give Pari and anyone else who reads these entries a little more enjoyment.

Into the Abyss… Welcome to Provo

Preface- This is the story of my first day I Provo after moving up. Now although the name does sound gloomy, it is called that not because I don’t like it up but just because it fits the story the best.

So after checking in to my apartment complex and getting all of my information for the apartment I would be living in, I found my apartment in the back corner of the apartment complex by the maintenance shed. I found out that my apartment was 104 meaning it was on the bottom floor of the complex. As I wanted down the stairs into my dungeon that would soon be my home, I noticed that there were a bunch of leaves in the stair way, a long with a half a dozen fliers for activates on the ground. On each door there is a clip that people can leave messages for the people in the apartments; on the clip on my door I saw the rest of the dozen fliers. I remember seeing on of the flier that was clipped on to the door for an activity back in October 2006. The door to the apartment was lock, so I thought that the apartment must have been empty for the last semester. Well anyone who knows me knows this was not the case, and when I opened the door I found this was not the case.

On opening the door the first thing I saw was a coffee table in front of a love seat and a sofa. On the table was three dirty forks along with a few other things that where one that clean. There was no plate or anything else, just the forks. The truly surprising thing was the next thing I saw in the room, an iron on an ironing board. That seemed kind of random. The next thing that hit me was the smell. Now it wasn’t an over powering smell, but it was that not so clean smell. Anyone who has been in a guy’s apartment on a mission knows this smell. At this moment I knew that I was not a lone. :)

All and all the apartment is fine and my roommates are great. Between the position our apartment faces, the growth out side, and being on the bottom floor we don’t get to much sun light. Between those factors and the blank walls, it helps to create the dark dungeon/abyss feeling. Well I think this is getting pretty long so I am going to wrap it up. I plan on updating this every other day or so. Thanks for reading, and hope you enjoyed the reading. If you have any comments, let me know.

Well that is all I have for an intro so I am going to get started with this thing.

Test

It is a new low for myself. But I figure that if I do this I can count it as a journal too. :)
