Welcome back to the literally gay SF mr vinci zhang.

Aight, I've moved into my new apt, it's a 2-room apt wit 1 bath and 1 kitchen. house is pretty big and the rent is 1300 per month, it's pretty cheap. however ulitilities are not incl. n in this gay place i need to pay garbage collection, typical usa houses. anw i don own the place, only rented the 1st floor, landlord is living on the 2nd.

landlord is a v nice guy, surprisingly. the interior of the house is nicely finished, but i found naught inside. so b4 i move in, he offered me a free 3-man black sofa. however i had 2 carry it wit him from his other house, he drove me there, took bout 15mins on the freewy and his new house is 3-storeys, built by himself. he's in the real estate business, rich. so we painstakingly carried the huge sofa outta his SUPER NICE HOUSE (sry i got no pics, but think of houses in movies) and painstakingly put it into his truck, drove back to where i live and again painstakingly moved into my living room. where else on earth can u find such a nice landlord?

let me talk abit bout my roommate. his name is shane from shenzhen china. there's a pic of us in a previous entry. anw shane arrived in sf after me and during that meantime, i looked for house and moved in 1 day before him so that when he returns he got place to live. in fact i arrived 2 weeks earilier than him, during that period of time i lived at gf's place. man, it was nasty. her da jie oso came to sf, meaning her house is v crowded and i had 2 slp in living room. that's ok, but during the 1st few days when i came back i was suffer from some really bad jetlags. imagine urself having no place to slp when u are jetlaggin. living room is always occupied by her family members so i cant slp anytime i want and i'm forced to adapt to GMT -8.

so. . back to talkin bout the new house, it's located at 55 madrone, so m gonna call it madrone from now on. i spent 1 day cleaning the kitchen together wit baby, another 1 day to fix my bed from ikea. n talkin bout ikea, da jie drove me there from her house, it was SUPPOSED to be a 40mins drive but she. . got lost. . *cut the details. . and we finally arrived after at least 2 hours. needless to mention about my mood at that time, esp she almost crashed twice into cars at the other lane.

in a nutshell, it was a lot of shit, a lot of troubles before i finally moved in.

tis time, m not gonna brag bout going out to buy furniture likes i did when i 1st came, i'm juz lazy to even type all these out. juz put urself into my shoes, from my gf's house to madrone is at least 40mins drive assuming u travel at a constant speed of 60miles, bout 100kmph. furnitures, food, internet, everything was a lot of shit to me. nevertheless i din feel v stressed to deal wit all these, mayb it's a sign that i've grown up? juz an optimistic way of putting it.

so shane came back, i picked him up at the airport. wat a lucky guy he is, coming back to a dust-free house with everything fixed up.

ok some pics of the house. taken RIGHT NOW when m blogging this.
