While waiting for the bus on Sunday (buses in Perth come every 30 minutes to every hour on weekends), a man with a beggar-ish appearance approached us with an offer of a house for rent.
It seemed liked a pretty good deal: cheaper than our current lodging and fully furnished too. Plus, the rent would cover electricity and gas so there wasn't any need for us to fork out extra money on that score.
The only catch: we've paid up for our hostels for the entire semester.
It's a shitty feeling knowing that there stood a better deal and we were not able to take it, what with my housemate-who-does-not-clean-up-after-herself and the un-homely bathroom, I would have given almost anything to get into a warmer environment.
My only consolation was that I haven't been feeling homesick much, due to hanging out with friends quite often and keeping myself busy so I won't have the time to, to quote joe ann, 胡思乱想 (having wild thoughts).
(HKL lied, who says one can't find friends if one joins school in the middle of the school year? She's a bugger)
Anyway, I have grocery shopping to do tomorrow, seems like that is, and will be, the only shopping I'm gonna be doing for a very loooooonnnng time. Sigh, what a life. What a life!
