Parallel Universe

A collection of my daily thoughts... most of the time.

| Apartment |

My apartment here in Greenville is really nice. It has a lot of space and is very comfortable. All of my furniture is rented for a couple of months. The couch is absolutely wonderful. It feels almost as good as my door mat back home. I mean you can just see the beauty. Very chic. As you can see, my monster tv is ready for hours of entertainment. Yes, those are computer speakers. They are there for my satellite radio that you see on top of the tv. I listen to that a lot actually. I always turn it on after work to keep my spirits high. I typically only use the tv to watch the evening news while eating my dinner. It's nice to have just some background noise when living alone. Lack of human interaction really starts to get to you after a while. It's no fun eating alone as all of you know. I'm not too worried actually. I mean just look at the beautiful furniture I have...

Moving on to the dining room... The furniture there is really pretty nice. The table is nice and... solid? And the chairs really do well. I tried all of them. My mom helped me to spice up the place a little bit by giving me the plant that you see there as my center piece. I eat breakfast there and sometimes eat my dinner there. It depends on how interesting the news is. The picture on the wall there is of Lake Michigan. My uncle took it when I was muy young. Oh, and the window there looks out to my screened porch. It is a beast porch. I don't think I took a picture of it though... ok well just take my word for it. It's beast. Yea, so that's the dining room.


My bedroom probably has too much packed into it. I really didn't want all of my computer stuff and keyboard and all outside in the main part of the apartment. So I made a pretty decent attempt at getting everything crammed in here. Yes, my computer is on a mountain of boxes. Yes, my desk is... small. A tad different from the blacksburg desk, eh? It's fine for the time being though. I'm only here for about 5 months. It serves its purpose. I don't do much written work in the evenings. If I did, I'd probably use the beast dining room table (see above).

I forgot to mention that I have a really cool look-through window thing into my kitchen from my living room. I use it as a place to dump my keys and stuff after work. I also pretend to watch the news while cooking dinner. What really happens is I stare at the tv, can't hear it because of my sizzlin' food, burn the food, and pretend like I understood what happened. It works.

Amanda made me the blanket you see on my bed for Christmas. :-) So these pictures should give you a good idea of what my apartment looks like. Most of what I have typed is a joke - you know that.
