hihihi guys!
so im finally settling in to L.A. fast and well and all is grand over here. i have Skype to thank for getting rid of the huge burden that was not being able to see my mikeycakes for months, and cyber face-to-face chatting is much better than plain phone chatting any day. fur reels. also mike lets roland and mr. fuzzypants into the convo every now and then, too, so it's like i have the whole cuddle club right with me when we're talking :)
anyhows, the apartments are rather pleasant despite being ancient (they were built in 1969...yeah...). i live in a quad with 3 other roomates, meaning 2 people per bedroom. sooo, even though the apt is nice and spacey upon entering, the actual bedrooms are pretty cozy - BUT they have good closet space, so this girl aint complaining! oh and each room gets their own bathroom, huzzah! (thank the big g i didnt ever have to live in a dorm with a community shower...ughh the nightmares) anyways, i'll let the pics say the rest:
my tiny little beddy
my lovely & large sliding mirror closet next to my bed. and yes, that is my queen comforter folded over, and yes i do sleep wrapped up like a burrito every night, cozy as can be :)
oh but dont mind my lack of a bedskirt, i am a gross college student just trying to make it by. u kno...
inside half of my messy closet, the rest of my more casual clothes are shoved into my dresser. yay for adequate clothes space :D
i cant believe i packed 2 huge luggages and these were the only pairs of shoes i could manage to take...i miss you, shoes back home! esp. my boots collections (see you in the winter!)
i have the left side of the dresser with the mirror, so appropriate for my vainass self. yah jk.
practically empty kitchen. someone come cook for me please!
dining room from afar
living room...with NO TV. wahh wtf, so all cable/premium channels are included in tuition but they failed to mention how they took out the acual tvs entirely...
and lastly patty the patio (my 'mates have no idea ive just now named her that, but i think it rings pleasantly)
alright so that's all for our actual apartment today, hopefully have more pics of the fun extra stuff/amenities they have on location - like the pool/jacooz (which i laid by most of today, maybe actually swim in tomorrow), tennis court, volleyball court, etc.
oh but most importantly, i want to thank you for all your warm and welcoming wishes, it really meant a lot and made me less homesick and more at ease. kishes for you! :)
wow! congrats! :) i love your new apartment.. and that green bed cover is just way too great! :) the kitchen looks really tidy and neat.. i'm now imagining living there, and that would be fun! :)

Wow you're all settled! Thank goodness for Skype, don't worry sweetpea, everything will be OK. Time will fly between now and when you see Mikey :)
ReplyDeleteThough getting a TV might help with time flying ;)
LADYBEANERZ!!!! I missed you! Glad to hear that you’ve settled in just fine… I like your bedsheets hehe! Don’t miss your cuddleclan/crew too much! Hehe! Oh and have a GREAT weekend! Woohoo!

Wow what a fab. looking apartment, i love your bed and yes i think i'm going to miss my shoes once i get out of home :(
ReplyDeleteI want your bedsheets :D
ReplyDeletelooks great!
ReplyDeleteI'll come cook for you! As long as you don't mind spaghetti, pizza, and French toast every day :D But your place looks great! I love your comforter, so green and b-e-a-utiful. Sounds like you live in a tight living situation, but looks like you made the most of it! It looks amazing :) Have a great weekend and I love whoever invited Skype!
ReplyDeleteNo tv?? EEEK. Place looks fabulous lady. Your bedding is too cute!
ReplyDeleteYour apartment looks very comfy. I think it's just the right size. & you don't need tv. ;)
ReplyDeletewow your place looks GREAT! It looks so cozy. hehe I got no TV right now either! Hopefully I'll get one soon.. and is that snoopy?! I love snoopy!!
ReplyDeleteand wow omg you should go see Ellen's show and make a whole post on it!! I think it'd be so much fun seeing it live! You have to let me know if there's actually an "applause" sign to when you're suppose to applause like how they show them in movies!
what could be more important than closet space?? glad you are getting settled in, the apartment looks lovely!
ReplyDeleteyour apartment looks cozy and lovely.
ReplyDeletegood luck to you on everything!
Hanh,
Home sweet home darrrling!
ReplyDeletehaha..wrapped up like a burrito?!
cozzzy!! Love the huge mirror as well, just don't too close during earthquake ok...it's California-hee*
Great new week, beautiful!
xo*
How absolutely wonderful!! Have the best year in LA !! The apartment looks great.. and thankfully technology will make the transition easier, except for the missing TV. :\ Well at least they are cheaper anymore..
ReplyDeleteSuper cute, I had those big mirrors in my la apartment, loved them!
ReplyDeleteGlad you're getting settled! As long as your roommates are fine, it should be fun living with them... and yay for skype! I talk to my parents long-distance via the webcam. So practical! It's a great thing you got a lot of closet space, but I find the no TV thing intolerable. Is there any way you guys can just get rent or buy a cheap machine? The non flat-screen versions should be pretty cheap these days. Look forward to more of your LA updateds. Take care!
ReplyDeleteHope you enjoy your time in LA!
ReplyDeletehahahha... I think you'll be on the internet a whole lot more now you don't have a tv, right?
*loves*
your place is great!!!! and if you think your place is old, mine was built in the 1920's!!! hah ahahahah
ReplyDeletehope la is good to you. :)
yay for the new pad!
ReplyDeleteWow, congrats! Looks really nice and cozy!
ReplyDeleteGreat place you got there
ReplyDeleteAnd thank goodness for a lot space for your clothes. Haha ♡

hahaha I totally agree with you that bad press is better than no press! I just came back from Toronto and I saw in a boutique store a shirt that says "Kayne is a whiny b*tch" LOL.
ReplyDeleteYou did good with the packing! The apartment looks nice, open and spacious. I mean you even have a pool- you are set sister! Very Melrose Place:-) I am so pleased!
ReplyDeleteThis is very bittersweet for me! I came to your blog to post the wonderful news of my trip to Boston THIS WEEKEND but sadly, you won't be there : ( I was all looking forward to a "bloggers unit" post. < sigh > I will have to save that for some other time I suppose. Enjoy the City of Angels. : )
