It's 01.15 in the night. I am just back from Italy, and quite tired. I left 15 C in Milan, the same that I found here when landed...for once temperature here is the same that in Italy...for once I go to Italy, it rains...!!!! Nevertheless, now, seated on my bed, I am looking around me, trying to familiarize with the brand new bedroom. It's the first night I will sleep here. It's not too bad so far. I thought it would have felt different, weird, instead not. I am a bit "cold", like if it was a normal night, Not too excited, but this is me. Emotionless at time. But this is only one aspect, more I will see in the next days. When coming back I will find nobody at home, or eating every night on my own... I mean, not that I always chatted with my flatmates or had dinner together, but I knew they were always there... Don't get me wrong though, I was waiting this for long time now...for various reasons that house sharing brings along...
I am using somebody's Wi-Fi...funny cos I didn't catch it the other days, when I tried to connect from here. But i didn't need it...Anyway in the meantime that I will set up mine, it helps...
I reckon it will take still a month to clear up everything, unpack all the boxes and store everything, but no rush...I can take all the time I want. There is also something still to buy, many things in fact. Ikea...I will come back soon.
 

...and then...? and then I am moving out...! My adventure at Hughenden Road is coming to an end...Sad, but true. Leaving this place where I spent over 4 years is a shame... Honestly I feel sorry about that...! I love staying here, I loved living here...! I am moving to a new flat...my own flat...a big big step!! There is a lot to gain, quality of life first, in living on my own...then privacy, whatever you want...but yet I will miss a lot this street, this flat with its stunning view...and I will probably feel also a bit lonely at the beginning. It is a funny feeling in this time, with a mix that I don't even recognize sometimes...! I am happy and excited for this new adventure, but I'd rather call it phase of my life...I am a bit stressed and tired cos last two week I have spent all my spare time looking for, and choosing, furniture for the flat...I am slightly worried cos from now on I will be responsible for maintenance and managment of the flat...and I had already a first sign of it... I had to call the plumber on Monday! I will have to deal with the neighbours...and this might not be easy as well...but I will see it later...it is really like that...but in the end I think it's cool to have to deal with all of this...!
Tomorrow there is the furniture delivery, Friday they are coming to replace the carpet in the bedroom, over the weekend some friends are helping me out assembling everything...then I still have to choose few little things, to buy plates and all the rest is necessary in the kitchen...so...still a lot to do...plenty of things to think about...!
And last but not least...I have to choose a new title for the blog...that's the hardest task...
