we got the flat. XD yes, THE one, the first one we saw, the one we really liked! we went for a second viewing this morning, and then we gave the guy 200 £ as a holding deposit, so... there you go. XD i'm so excited. they're still doing it up, they need to finish the floor (in my room), the kitchen and the bathroom, so... we're moving in on the 11th! i so can't wait. it's wonderful; the windows are even bigger than what i thought, there's so much light coming in! and it's on the second floor as well. the living room isn't huge, but we don't have to have a desk or a table in there, so it's more than enough space in there. the kitchen is great, new tiles on the floor and he'll even be able to fit a table and chairs in there; plus we got a big fridge (finally!), loads of cupboards (twice as many as last year), oven and a microwave (yay). the guy is also gonna give us an iron, an ironboard and a hoover (and you might expect these things normally, but last year we had nothing like that). the sofa and the armchair in the living room aren't great but he said he's gonna buy throws for them; and we will have a table thing for the tv and a storage/bookshelf thing as well. all brand new, which is great. my room is more or less the same size as last year, but it feels a lot bigger because the ceiling is so much higher and it's a more normal shape... i'll have an absolutely gigantic wardrobe, a desk and a bedside table... which is so much more than what i had last year, lol. sophie's room is huge and so so so pretty, but well. those two deserve the bigger room... ;p
i'm so excited, you have no idea. i can't wait to get in there, put all of my stuff in, make it mine (well, ours), and then take loads of pictures. jay said he's gonna get next weekend off work to help me move in everything... it's gonna be great, i'll get to move everything in AND christen the bed... XD
i need pictures, PICTURES! it's so pretty. ;__;
