Moving out

As mentioned in a previous entry, I moved out of home. Such a step is a leap forward in maturity and adult life.

I have learnt many things about living independently, which I wish to share with you:

• There's no need to have dining chairs when you have two computer chairs and beanbags.

• Saying "I'm moving out" is an invitation for people to dump their spare crockery onto you.

• Not having gas connected due to bureaucractic idiocy is not just a simple matter of not having an oven. Taking cold showers for a week is not as fun as you might think.

• Some people like watching TV at 2am, like our nextdoor neighbour.

• Chicken thigh fillets may be cheap, but it tastes like bum. In conclusion, breast is best.

• Crunchy Asian Noodle Salad from Woolworths is a cheap, tasty snack.

• Crunchy Asian Noodle Salad isn't crunchy any more after it's been in the fridge for three days.

• Bottle of Cold Power laundry detergent > Huntsman spider

Cold Power detergent bottle: 1. Huntsman spider: 0

• When I'm angry, I clean.

• The meaning of life: Sitting on our balcony on a beanbag while using this laptop and eating cake.
