New Diggs

So Sunday Leah and I moved into our new shared house.  We previously lived in one of the nicer neighborhoods in the city, but it was more residential and had an older crowd than we wanted, so we moved to a younger neighborhood.  Unfortunately for us, the the previous tenant of the room Leah is moving into was a moron and kept the keys with them, so we have to share a room until they are fedexed to us.  Also unfortunately, there is only one key, but so far that hasn't been a problem.

The house is very cool.  There is a living room, thousands of bathrooms, and a huge basement kitchen.  I was just downstairs making coffee when I ran into a roommate.  We talked spanish for a minute, but he was talking waaaay too fast for me, so we switched to english.  He goes to BC and promised to teach me how to cook, so I'm already benifiting from this move.

We also had to say goodbye to our old landlords, which was a little scary.  I personally was terrified they were going to find something broken or wrong with the apartment, or at the very least realize Leah had stolen tuberware and I had taken an adaptor.  Thankfully, they noticed nothing and we got our deposit back.

I'm now off to study spanish and then go meet up with people at taco night.  Thats right, every Tuesday I go to the most American restaurant in the entire city and pay 1 dollar for tacos with the other US-food deprived ex-pats.  Hasta luego!
