Update for the last few days!

Hello! Sorry we haven't updated much! Savi and I still don't have internet at the apartment and probably wont for a little while. Any, here are a few random pictures:

Savi and I about to take the train to Ikea. Ahh, those were the good days. The days of youthful ignorance and its associated bliss. We were so wide-eyed and optimistic. Surely, our experience at Ikea would be a positive, if not an ordinary one. Just another day. Surely not the type of event that one remembers all other events as pre or post. "Well before the storm . . .", "After the moon landing . . ." Surely not.

Anyway, we ordered our furniture and waited for it to delivered the next day.

Meanwhile, I went to Monash to get all of my paperwork in order. I got my ID card! Woo.

Fast forward several days. We have furniture and a fridge! This means groceries! 

And beer! Cheap beer though. Savi and I have been sampling the more affordable options, but even those are $16 for a 6-pack.

This is Dino Quixote. He is a gift from my buddy Jake. Jake gave us Dino Quixote to keep us safe. He is an essential part of the apartment.

First day of school! This is the free shuttle pulling up the the Caulfield campus (the one we live near) that brings me to the Clayton campus (the one I work at).

I'm not sure what this guy's name is, but I call him Nega-Parlton. He's very testy. It is almost as if his owner didn't take the time to figure out that he prefers purple to green grapes and Creole tomatoes to any other thing the grocery wants to call a "tomato." Anyway, this guy lives in one of the Bio buildings.

Door to my (shared) office! Look at that "staff only." Thats me. I can go in here.

My desk! I'm leaving the old monitor there to reserve the space that I'm not using yet.

Well thanks for reading the blog! Savi and I have just about completely settled into our apartment so I think we're going to make a video tour and post it this weekend.
