Two new students to move in!

So after bidding farewell to my housemate, I met with the homestay coordinator at the English school nearby and she liked my house :-) Then Friday I hadn't heard from her so I called her and we decided that I would take in two young girls from Brazil who have opted to do twin share half board. In the middle of the night last night, I shuffled furniture around and came up with this! It turns out that my sofa bed squashes in very nicely into the room and I had a valance spare and a matching quilt cover :-P I think the room is just gorgeous. The girls move in 6 July 2013.

Final cuppa at Dome in the international airport with Miriam and Tri


Farewell to my housemate

Feeling sad as I bid farewell to my German housemate who is heading home today - well home for her is Switzerland. I have learnt a lot from her. I will be getting two more international housemates in to live with me. My life will change a lot soon! I need change.

Putting up a curtain rod

My housemate cracks me up - I was using the drill to put plugs into the wall and then screws so I could put up a curtain rod and then some curtains. She snapped me in action! haha

Earlier this week, some random person just decided to cut all the trees along my wall so now you can see straight into my house! Thank you so much dear stranger. So today, I raced out and bought some curtains on sale in Spotlight (~$21 for one pair of ready to hang curtains) and the rod from Bunnings (~$47 with 21 rings).
