Yet another breaking point

Tis that time again, which seems like a recurring constant throughout the year. Time to find a new place to move into, which entails negotiating the ethereal realm between the old place and the new place. Meaning, getting the deposite from ye olde place and funneling it into the new place. Now getting blood from stone or alchemy are less draining on the body or soul when compared to these tenuous of tasks. Precision, financial dexterity and manoeuvring reminiscent of a world class jewel thief are called for.

Added to that mix is the fact of trying to find a decent accomodation in a big city.

Dublin would be no different from any other city on the planet, except the prices here are stark ravingly high in comparison to the dearth of modern living accomodations. The country side boasts much fancier abodes at a fraction of the cost. I DON'T LIVE THERE unfortunately.

Some of the living arrangements entered into would not be altogether out of place in a third world country but somehow, it was quite suprising and vexing to find it in an european city. Two or sometimes three people sharing a bedroom, although not quite near 5-6 or more people sharing a room found in certain countries, is still off putting. Shared lodging ah what a concept. I cannot wait to be done with that. Atleast this year i'll get to live with people I know, hopefully. Here's to a happy future turning it the way you want it with the people you want in it.
