A Sporadic Diary...

Finally got to the new room!!! ;)

I'm moving... Just got to the new room yesterday (March 03, 2012)! As per contract, it's time to review the yearly-basis contract for my room. Since my previous room is for two people and my friend has already gone back to Cambodia, I need to find a cheaper single room to live. Finding a new room is not easy here for two reasons. One reason is itself related to my time; I don't have much time to search for the new house. Second reason has something to do with the "deposit", called "보증금" in Korean, which is really crazy here in Korea. The deposit I have to pay for my previous room is 1,000,000 Won (about 1,000 USD) which is relatively cheaper than that of any other houses which ranges from 2,000,000 Won (about 2,000 USD) to 5,000,000 Won (about 5,000 USD); therefore, to find such an affordable house is not that easy.

The decision... Fortunately, the house owner seems don't want to lose me either as I've been her good customer since the beginning. She decided to give me some discount for the price of living alone in the double room. So, I also decided to continue staying in her house for another year. But this time I exchanged the room with my Cambodian friend's room as she needs to stay with her friend. This is because my previous room is a room which consists of two separate rooms inside, which is really good for her case. As a result, I did move but it was a short-distance move, really nice ha!

Moving is nothing, but cleaning is... As it is just a move from one room to the next, moving is really Ok. ;) But here is how the tiresome comes, the "cleaning". :'( The most weary thing is to clean the window. Awww, I tell you "it's terrible" since the room looks like it's not been cleaned for years. Anyway, finally I made it. Everything is clean now.

The new room... So, ultimately everything is setup. I'm quite happy with it coz it becomes the huge single room now, and the rental free for every month is 380,000 Won (About 380 USD). ;)
