Midnight Blues

Staying up late tonight studying for the stupid test on Thursday. As always, in actuality the only thing stupid about the whole situation is me not studying til the very last minute. Ah well, bygones.

An opportunity arises this weekend for me to get a ride to Van city with the purpose of scouting for a room to rent. Although this works out very well, it also forces me into decision making.

1) Do I really want to move to Van in July? That seems like such a short time from now. Besides I will miss all the fun events on the island. Folkfest, Skafest, Jazzfest and also the Latin-Caribbean Fest. Some of which free tix are a possibility. Not to mention missing all my friends and my parents. Wah si, life decisions. I'm not ready for them. Again, as always, nobody gives a shit whether you're ready or not.

2) Even if I do decide to go to Van this July, where will I stay? Should I get an apartment on my own, share an apartment with someone, rent a room in a house? No smoking/ No pets/ In-suite washer dryer...the list goes on! Here's my rendition of what a perfect ad would look like, right about now.
