New Apartment!!

Today I moved into my new brand spanking new apartment in Glebe! Glebe is a south western area of Sydney, its about 3 km away from the main city (1.8 miles). It is supposedly popular with the young hipsters, there are a bunch of 'ethnic' restaurants and a lot of cafes. Glebe has a large outdoor market on the weekends as well which I'm looking forward to going to. It's called Glebe because it used to be a glebe, an area of land given to a priest so the priest can use the land to support himself either by renting it out or farming etc (Wikipedia).
My apartment opens up into a hallway with a small bathroom to the left. To the right is a stairways leading upstairs to the 2 bedrooms and the full size bathroom which has a bath and a shower. Walking a few feet forward from the entrance brings you to the kitchen and the dining room/sitting room. There are 2 bedrooms in my new apartment, I ended up in the big one that has a balcony. We did a lottery where we all wrote our names on slips of paper and then drew from a bowl. My new roommates seem nice.  They are named Mariya ( who is actually in my room), Lindsay, and Lyndsay. Mariya studies animal science and goes to Cornell. She likes to party. A lot.
Other than that I have just been unpacking and buying groceries.  It is really nice to just have a place to relax and that I can call mine.
