figured i’d give you lot a bit of a peek into my new flat and whatnot…

the above is my view out of the window towards mornington crescent station

my bed and the two nightstands i’ve now got

my bookshelf, my jewellery, and my other random bits

first night in my new bed and my new flat. just going to put a few things in the closet, and then all that’s left tomorrow is the rest of my clothes then i’m fully moved in!

im really happy in my new flat, was a good move and im so thankful for simon. dear lord that boy puts up with a lot, don’t know what i’ve ever done to deserve so many good people in my life. thank you mamma and pappa, we all know i wouldn’t be here without your help

im ridiculously happy i’ve moved. yes ill miss marylebone, but no i wont miss living in a freaking dungeon. my flat now is much smaller, but it reminds me of the flat me and my father shared in Dublin. clean and new! even smells the same in the hallway.. weird much?

but seriously, bigger fridge, nice microwave, big bathroom which is clean and doesn’t stay moist for hours on end, and a fold away bed for storage and more space! yes it’s smaller but it’s only me living there.. i’m not that big! although i think i need a step ladder for the closet and kitchen.. im wee midgety aren’t i?

getting up ridiculously early tomorrow to drive to Ikea and get the last bits, then returning the car in marble arch… damn it gonna have to get public transport again.. not excited. love having a car.. feels so FREE!

Handed back my keys and said goodbye to Marylebone. It’s been one hell of a year with so many great memories, never going to forget my first flat!

Now I’m homeless for a night, so I’m staying in turnpike lane tonight before I get the keys to my new flat tomorrow morning. Buzzing!

Going to the get the car now and then hopefully if all goes to plan, Simon and I are going to move all my stuff out of my flat… feels weird yet exciting!

just had a shower, now i’m packing up the last bits for tomorrow. early start, so it’s better to get it out of the way now. i’m nervous and i’m not quite sure why…

oh well, bedtime it is. going to watch something and try to sleep relatively early!

tomorrows the big day… all my stuff is packed (for the most part ) and simon’s coming with me to pick up the rental car tomorrow morning at 830. worked out that it was easiest that way, and cheapest! a moving company wanted to charge students 60 pounds an hour.. really?!

anyways im saying goodbye to Marylebone and hello to Camden!

if all goes through as planned with the contracts and down payment, this shall be my flat when i get back to london from sweden..

a lovely little studio flat on camden high street! smaller than what i’ve got now, but much newer and cleaner.

just paid rent, and just had to think to myself how lucky i am. lucky i’ve got such supportive parents. lucky i’ve got the privilege to live and study in london. lucky to have lived the last 10 months in marylebone.

i love my flat. i wish it was different in some aspects, but looking at moving makes me appreciate how great it’s been to live here. lucky to have been where i have been. lucky to be coming home to this.

i don’t want to leave marylebone, i don’t want to downgrade. i’m being a spoiled brat i know, but you can’t blame me. if you were in my situation you’d understand as well.

it’s been a luxury living here, and i’m so lucky that my parents have been willing to put up for the rent.

so thank you mamma and pappa, words can’t describe how happy it’s made me. how much of a convenience and luxury it’s been! to grateful i have you two.

parents have been nagging on about me finding a new flat so i’ve been sat for the last hour looking around. after finding absolutely nothing i started to imagine what my life could be like. if i had a boyfriend willing to move in with me i could live in the middle of camden, looking over the canal.. and still pay less than i do now..

i’m becoming delusional. need to stop dreaming and get back to reality.
