T=months
L= my life
I'll solve the equation for you because I'm really good at math obviously: I've moved 6 times in the past three months... [and two more to come next month]
A little ridiculous, but welcome to my life. First, I moved out of my apartment at the end of April after spring semester back home. I packed our SUV so full there was only room enough for me to sit in the drivers seat and drive home, whoops! Secondly I moved from home BACK to school for first session of summer classes at UMW. Then after two weeks the lease on that house ended so I had to move a third time to a new house, because there was no water in the house I was actually subletting in. After a few days in the house of my third move house number four was habitable so I lived there for the remainder of summer session. So, if you are keeping track our tally is up to four moves. Well summer session ended after what felt like an eternity in chemistry111 hell and I moved back to my home home. I had 10 days to relax and pack and then I set out for Spain. I moved in with my host family(move number 5), Magdelena and her two kids Paula and Rodrigo. They were great and the kids were really fun...
...but unfortunately they unexpectedly have to go visit a sick relative and I would be alone for upwards of a week if I stayed there SO move number six was to a new host family. I am now in Bilbao instead of Getxo. I am further away from the beach and have a less astetically pleasing view from my window but my morning commute to the university is much shorter; 3 metro stops instead of 9. I am now living with a married couple, Elisa and Alfredo. They are SO nice, and have been cooking some really awesome food, so all in all I'd say move number 6 was a good one! Move number 7 and 8 come when I move back home and then about a month later BACK to school. No complaints on my end though, its all well worth it.
