Holy shit! My sleeping cycle is fucked up! I can only sleep 4 hours continually at the most, then before work I take a 2 hour nap. I feel wore out when I’m awake. I wanted to make this post much sooner, but shit happens.

The old place I was living at was a small studio apartment. It cost $330 a month. I had been living there since September 1999, the rent first started at $285. I moved out of my parents house and dropped out of school and needed to find a place quickly. It was the only place I looked at. It wasn’t very good, but I loved the location because it was close to downtown. The apartment was empty for a long time, because there were a bunch of calcium deposits in the toilet due to it not being flushed.

I grew used to living there and didn’t mind much. The thing that bugged me the most was that the apartment had bed bugs. At first it was infested, but after it was fumigated it got better. Their bites inch like crazy and the worst is they will bite in rows, annoying motherfuckers! The kitchen was small and cramped, I just couldn’t do much.

After, I got my current job I started thinking about my life a lot. I have been too complacent and lazy! I needed a change in my life. I decided to move to a much bigger and better place, and most importantly in a new neighborhood. I’m happy my goal was met!

Here’s pictures of my old place.

I got the keys to my apartment on Thursday, August 27th and started moving my shit to the new place the next day. I had asked my brother to help me move, he has a Chevy Tracker (It’s a small SUV). I work overnights (10:45am to 7:00am) and I didn’t want to go to work exhausted. I decided to start moving at around 9am, after I got a little rest from work. I had rested in my new place and walked over to my old place where my shit was.

I called my brother and told him not to eat anything for breakfast. I was going to treat him to pho (I love that shit!) for helping me out. We were both starving and drove to my pho spot, Pho Nguyen. Bad news, it wasn’t open yet! They opened at 10am and I decided to start moving to kill some time. The pho was real good after that first trip. Yummy!

We kept going back and forth from my new and old place about 9 times. We stopped at around 5pm and we were exhausted! The weird thing was that the toughest part of it was just walking up 3 stories to my old place without anything in our arms. We moved all the boxes and most of my belongings that day. I counted 52 boxes total, with 33 being medium to large boxes. I got them from work, I had been collecting them for the past 3 weeks. I would walk home with them after work (No car life is the shits). My friend, John, helped me moved my mattresses before I had to go to work. My brother’s SUV was to small to handle it, not John’s though.

On Saturday, we finished up in about 2 or 3 trips. I treated my brother to pho from another place called Vung Tau. My brother suggested we go to a coffee place called The Meadowlark to play some chess. He kicked my ass pretty bad, and there will be a rematch.

Here are the pictures of the things I moved by Saturday afternoon.

The living room. Look at all those boxes!

After a long search, I have found a home that I can call my own. The first place I rented when I moved out of my parents’ home was the only place I looked at. It was crappy, but I liked the location because  it was close to downtown. I had been there since 1999. I found this new place after a thorough search. I toured 9 different places and it was my clear favorite.

Here’s some pictures. I got off work at 7am on August 28th and walked 3 blocks there. I had gotten the keys to it the day before after I paid my rent for September.

Another crappy day. The weather was miserable. I wanted to go out and take some new pictures for the blog. Oh, well. I have pictures I took from last year.

Last year around lated spring and early summer, Lincoln had an unusual large amount of rain. There were some flooding because of it. Holmes Lake was filled with more water than I’ve ever seen it. Some benches and walking paths were flooded.

I touched up the pictures with Gimp2, I took them with my old Sony Cyber-shot DSC-S40 camera. My intention was to give them an HDR feel and look.

I was planning to go out and take some pictures today, but I overslept until late afternoon. It was a nice day and I only had time to go grocery shopping. I wanted to post pictures and I’ll be damned if I don’t! These are pictures I took around Park Middle School in the summer of 2008. I went there a long time ago. I wished I had made the most of it and enjoyed it more.

No time to reminisce, onto the pictures. I touched up the pictures with Gimp2, I took them with my old Sony Cyber-shot DSC-S40 camera. My intention was to give them an HDR feel and look.
