I has moved!!  
I meant to post earlier, but work and moving and all the stuff in between is keeping me very very busy. I posted almost 9 days ago. That's over a week. A lot has happened since then. I have spent last weekend packing boxes, organising my move, meeting with friends and yes... moving. I now officially live in Düsseldorf. Since sunday. But since my brother had to find in apartment pronto I also had to drive him around a lot. And work.

He now also has his apartment. He's going to be moving tomorrow and today so after work I'm heading there and helping him.

I have unpacked some boxes last night but I still don't have shelves, so I cannot store my books. T has been a great help though and a lot of my friends helped with the move. So that was all very easy going.

Anyways, I wanted to celebrate with pics but I have been a little remiss in taking them.ff

I guess moving has to be chaotic ;)


But at some point you can move around again




More here.

ps: is two weeks for phone and internet connection normal? what is EVN and do need it or not?
ps2: I guess I should specify that these pictures show my old room in my parents house!

Two weeks is at least not "un"normal. It's a pain, yes, but apparently aynthing up to 4 weeks is sadly "normal".
Sorry.

But Yay! Congratulations on the new appartment and that the move went kinda well!

I can't believe you actually found an apartment ;) Congrats! It looks really lovely.

I think so. I had to wait that long, too.
[identity profile] elli.livejournal.com on February 18th, 2010 06:32 pm (UTC)
Heee.. the pics up there show my old room though ;)

And gosh..I think I'm going to go mad that long without the net.

The new apartment looks really nice.
[identity profile] elli.livejournal.com on February 18th, 2010 06:44 pm (UTC)
Heee..thanks... but the pics in this post actually show my old room in my parents house :D
[identity profile] acari.livejournal.com on February 18th, 2010 08:45 pm (UTC)
Hee. No, I meant the nice niche with the three big windows and the, um, Kronleuchter.
[identity profile] elli.livejournal.com on February 19th, 2010 08:25 am (UTC)
Heeee..you went to the flickR ;)
You are right then : Thank you. The Kronleuchter is not mine though.

Man, I'm feeling a little excited seeing this post - all that blank wall and space to fill and make your own. I LOVE decorating \o/

You moved!!! Another thing my clumsiness missed uh, made me miss.Did you ever get my tweet?

So, Düsseldorf. How much less time do you need to work now. Not that you can actually enjoy it yet, what with moving stress and all?

[identity profile] elli.livejournal.com on February 19th, 2010 02:29 pm (UTC)
I so did!!!!!!! And well... I wasn't very vocal about it.

Which tweet?

I take 10 mins by car and 25 by train.... shaves an hour of my joourney in both directions.

Moving is such a chore, but I'm sure your new place will be great once you're totally settled.

It took more than two weeks for my phone and Internet connection when I was living in Wales. I got it done in about ten days when I moved back to England.

Love the paint job on the chair. =)
[identity profile] elli.livejournal.com on February 19th, 2010 02:31 pm (UTC)
hope so... it will be a while before I completely moved in.

Thank you :D

That does look chaotic.

YAY! For getting moving done and everything.

And 9 days is not a long time to not post. I didn't post in a month. ;)
[identity profile] elli.livejournal.com on February 19th, 2010 02:25 pm (UTC)
It was very much so :)

Maybe... but I meant to post more... and I think people at least expected an "I've moved". I dunno.

I don't think anyone expects me to post anything at all anymore. I am so lazy with posting. But I mainly got my LJ to read other peoples' posts and spam their comments anyway. I am still decent at that. :D
[identity profile] elsmoka.livejournal.com on February 18th, 2010 09:26 pm (UTC)
YAY! So glad everything went well. Did you get the lamp yet? :D
[identity profile] elli.livejournal.com on February 19th, 2010 09:48 am (UTC)
Not yet :( I'm gonna order it off amazon think.

Thank you :)

YAY for the move and it's so nice that you got help from your friends. Moving is a pain, and it's always nice to have some help. I hope everything went alright with your brother's move.
