The house! It’s great!

new house!

please take note of the goats. they are super awesome.

also, the yard is nice and big and fenced. i think Maddy would love it. er, when she’s not loving the air conditioning or cool shaded veranda.

i absolutely adore the new house. it’s fantastic and small and clean and fun and white and just so so good. there are a few ants to deal with, but i’m so happy and excited.

thanks for everyone who sent good karma vibes our way. i’m absolutely positive you helped. : ))

    Wow that looks like a great place. it looks like you are going to enjoy it. Hope it isn’t to long of a bike ride to school.
    Maddy will have fun with the goats.

    When you fall asleep tonight in your new digs, I hope you think of all those poor suckers in their little dorm rooms :)
    (although I guess they’re not there yet)
    (and I think ‘tonight’ has already come and gone for you..what’s the time difference anyway?)
    (also, how much does a place like that cost to rent??)

    hello, ladies (and Joe!). : ))

    thanks for the warm comments! it really is “warm” in here. i don’t have to worry about my morning coffee cooling off too quickly. : D

    Joe – i’ll post a map later showing my new bike route. speaking of which, i need to open up the box (it arrived!) and put it back together!

    to answer Sarah’s questions:
    - apparently some are here, but i hear the first week of classes is a bit of a panicked whirlwind for most new students in the dorms (setting up internet, banking, etc). suckers. ; )

    - Nevis is in the GMT-4 time zone. with daylight savings, we are 3 hours ahead of Vancouver.

    - i am paying $850US/month for this place. single dorms at MUA are $500/month, if you can get in as a single.

    more pics soon. you guys are awesome. : ))

    Hi Jennifer,

    I will be attending MUA in January and I cannot tell you how informative your blog has been. I have a few questions and I am hoping you can help. I noticed that you did not stay in the dorms during your first semester. How did you organize your housing? I am not too impressed with the dorms and even less so with the likelihood of having a roomate – I need my space! I found a housing list on the campus website. I contacted Charlene Huggins wanting to see picture of the places, but was told that you will only see what you are assigned to..?.. Therein lies the problem – I don’t want to be assigned to anything, I’d like to select willingly.

    What do I do? Also did you even bother to submit the housing form?

    Please help :)
