Moving to new apartment

This weekend, Will, Joe and I moved into our new place. Our 1-month stint at Oakwood came to an end and it was time to move on...

Our new apartment is awesome. It's a townhome complex called Willowbend in Sunnyvale. This is where we'll spend the next 12 months. Our apartment is 3 bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms, living, dining, balcony, etc., but it's different than everyone else's in that it's two floors; bedrooms upstairs, everything else on first floor.

It was a hell of a job moving all the furniture this weekend. On Saturday, we went around to 5 old interns' apartments and U-Hauled everything into the living room. On Sunday, we organized the furniture into separate rooms, but it wasn't easy getting beds up the ridiculously narrow stairs to second floor. I originally bought a queen size bed, but there was no way to fit it through, so I traded it with my good buddy Jacques' double, which is actaully quite a bit better. I also like all the other furniture in my room; a desk, dresser, cupboard, floorlamp, chair, and drying rack. The whole room cost close to $200, but it's a pretty complete set.
