On the MOVE ep. 1

I am going to move....

When? Where? Why????

Let me tell you about my current place. This is a rather nice apartment with a bus stop just below the building and food at the most convenient. Taxis are regular here. And to add on the highway is super near and it goes directly to work.

Now, the unfortunate story behind the beautiful facade...

My cosy room faces a common corridor where my neighbours walk by to get to their unit.
Almost every morning I have an automated alarm that goes off at 8am. No matter what time I sleep the night before, I am awaken by my neighbours' slippers being dragged as though going to the market is a REAL chore (probably it is.. OH JUST SHUT UP!!!).
And to top that up... these two ladies just speak with an utterly low, LOUD, and HARSH voice.
Well, now I suppose the next best remedy is to turn the air-conditioning on.
- I know! Who wouldn't know that?!

There comes another problem... the air-condition is a window unit that sits on the window railings and the rattling is AMAZINGLY LOUD!

The second problem being health related... I get terribly dehydrated. My throat would just dry up and itch. And then my nose will start its bulldozer engine noise while trying to clear the throat.
See how much problem it causes me!!!!

And you think those are the only reasons for moving out? NO!!

My room is equiped with a study desk, a queen size bed and a three-panel cupboard that barely even touches the ceiling.
The study desk and the bed is doing me just fine, except for the three-panel cupboard that is only suitable for someone who wants to live here for a short period of time. Over the time, my wardrobe has expanded and it purely needs more space. At this moment, I have to stick my head in to look for clothes.

"Have you ever thought of buying an additional cupboard to keep up with your ever growing collection of clothing?"
OF COURSE I HAVE!! I just don't have the space...

Now that I have answered the "WHY", the "WHEN" and "WHERE" will be revealed in the next episode.
