My New Digs



So today has been a tough morning, I am so frustrated because I feel trapped... Literally my room mate is very different than I am and she enjoys the country's night life I prefer to spend my nights sleeping. Since there is an alarm on the door I am stuck. I have unpacked already and have set up my room and now there is nothing to do.

I made a small video of the apartment however for now my computer is not being willing to upload. So instead I have posted pictures of the view from my window. I like the Church across the street the cross lights up at nights and gives me a sense of peace and security. Also the mountain is really pretty they are tall and surround the entire city. Meaning that there are millions of hills to walk up and down.

So for now I have mixed feelings about this whole new situation. I am not sure I am loving it so far, however at the same time I think of my lack of alternatives. I think I miss my family so much because I love them so much and since we are all so close it makes it even harder to be away.

Amanda, I can identify with how you are feeling right now...
I remember at University having a rooomate who was just opposite to me. I did feel trapped. As time went on and I got to know her things got better. We also set up some boundaries that worked for us.
Mom and dad are only a phone call away it may help to think of it like that.
I will pray for you, prayer and God definitey makes a difference.
You really have quite the view of the surroundings. What floor is your apartment on?
Today we are doing nothing special, we are off to church and then home again. I am on holidays this week so I am planning on decluttering a bit around here. It is harder with a little one to keep our home the way I would like it.
Is there a cost to call home or do you have skyper with web cam?

Love Aunt Lori Lei
