Moving In

All of us had an early start last Sunday. We started packing the little things that we couldn't figure out where to put the previous day. Spaces that have been cleared out were cleaned. Mid-way through our packing and cleaning frenzy, our McDonald's breakfast arrived. Clarice, Em-J and I all ordered the Deluxe meal knowing that it would be late in the afternoon before we'll have the chance to eat again.


We called the cab company and asked for 4 Maxicabs (vans) to be at our place at 12:30. When they learned that we were using the vans to move, they said that they don't allow that so we were left no choice but to cancel. 

We were still thinking of how to transport our stuff at around 12:20 when we received a text message and a call saying that the Maxicabs we asked for were already downstairs. Imagine the panic, I haven't had the chance to take a shower yet so I took a very quick one. We then started hauling all our stuff down. This took about an hour to complete. The drivers were saying that we should have taken our stuff down earlier but we really had no choice since we were caught unaware.



One van then had to leave early as he was already running late for his next schedule. Em-J and I rode with him while the rest followed soon after. On the way to our new place, it started to rain. The owner then texted that they will be a bit late. We had to wait by the lobby while some of our things got soaked.



We finished moving in at around 4pm, our agent then treated us with some pizza. 


Eli, Clarice and I then headed back to our old place to tidy the place up a bit. In our hurry, we actually left the place in a bit of disarray. After that, we headed to Fair Price to pick up some food and things that we still need. Needless to say, I was spent.
