This week's Friday Five:
- How long have you lived in your current residence? One year and four months.
- What changes have you made to it since you got there? Oh, a lot. Mostly because a significant amount of my decor is BTS-themed and I buy a lot of BTS merch and therefore change things up quite frequently, especially wall art. But even in the last three months, I've added an air purifier and a humidifier and a computer monitor, changed my bedding and pillows and shower curtain and bath rugs. I've also changed all my small appliances since I moved in — toaster, air fryer, Nespresso machine — so my kitchen looks entirely different than it did even six months ago. So, yeah, as I said, a lot.
- What surprised you about living in your place or in your neighbourhood? There are way more people in my building with children than I expected. It has only further confirmed why I don't want children. It also surprised me how much people don't know how to properly throw out the garbage or separate their recyclables and organics.
- If someone were considering moving in next door, what would you warn them about? I would warn them to wear ear plugs to bed because you will absolutely not get a good night's sleep without them.
- If you have to move in the next 45 days, what are you definitely not taking with you? The 25" television that my friend's dad gave me when I moved in, which is still sitting in my storage locker. It's not that I don't appreciate the gesture, it's that I've realized that with the Internet and a good computer monitor, I absolutely do not need a TV.
I'm getting ready to move, and I considered not bringing the TV for the same reasons. However, my TV is only 32 inches so it doesn't dominate the room, and I like to watch sports on it instead of a monitor. So it's coming with me and the Nespresso machine is probably not. I haven't been using it because I've cut back on coffee. :s
ReplyDeleteOoh, congrats! Why are you moving and where are you moving to?
DeleteI tried cutting back on coffee, but it did not work as I simply do not function without it, so I actually have two coffee machines and yet still no TV... :P
However, my monitor is actually 25", so I guess it's the same thing, lol.
