Hey everyone!
So as I said on my Friday post, today I will be talking about my adventure of
moving into my own home. I moved into my house on April 30th,
because we got permission from the landlord to move in a day earlier than the
start of our lease. So we began moving at around 9:30am and by 11 we had the
moving van packed with the first load of mine and all of my roommates things (I
have 4 roommates) and we go to start moving things into our new house. We got
there fine but as soon as we walked inside of the house we see that the living room
is full of couches and items from what looked to be a bedroom. We then go over
to our bar area and see more items piled everywhere from what looked like
another room. By that point we were all confused as to why there was still
stuff in our house and our landlord explained that he gave permission for two
of the previous tenants to leave their stuff in our house until they could come
and get them. The fun isn’t over yet.
Our landlord then decides to say something along the lines
of “so yeah, when you guys move in tomorrow…” meaning that me and one of my roommates
who planned to be staying overnight in our house which we were lead to believe
was ours on April 30th, were not actually allowed to stay overnight
in our house. So we were angry because when we asked for an early move in time
we figured that it obviously meant that we were planning on moving all of our
belongings and staying overnight on the same day, but no. So my mother and
another parent expressed their feelings in a rather obviously angry fashion,
but we ended up being able to stay over that night.
Also, within the past week my roommate and I discovered that
we have a disgusting and creepy bug problem. Now I have lived in this area of
Ontario my whole life and never have I ever seen this bug before, nor do I want
to see it again. A few nights ago my roommate came home from work when she goes
to go into her room and screams. I rush out thinking she’s hurt or something
but no. We are faced with the most disgusting bug I have ever seen in my entire
life. A House Centipede. Yes, look it up if you want to see what I am living
with but I caution that it is not a nice thing to see. We did eventually kill
it after a few freak-outs and almost heart attacks but it was, in the end
destroyed.
Now lets move on to last night. Last night I was home alone
because my roommate went to her parents’ house and would be staying over there
for the night. Now we had someone moving in to stay with the two of us for the
rest of the summer today so I was going to tidy up before they came. What I
wasn’t expecting was to be interrupted by another disgusting House Centipede
while I was home alone. I freaked. I scream and grabbed as many “weapons” as I
could while calling my mother all at the same time. I was freaking out because
I have being issues with bugs so while I was on the phone with my mother I was
crying and flipping out while she was trying to calm me down. So after I got
off the phone with my mother I go into killing mode. I grab what I can and
prepare to kill this bug but no. It disappears like a Houdini Centipede! Now it
is the next day and we still have not found this bug so I will be paranoid and
freaked out until we find it.
Anyways that is it for today, I know this was a super long
post with a lot of text but I really needed to get this off my chest. If you
have any moving stories or bug stories feel free to share them just so I know
that I am not alone and have bad luck.
Take care! xxx
