grown up living quarters

My quadraceps and calfs are still sore from the run over dragon's back that I did 3 days ago ... I'm starting to get worried that I am out of shape. Not to worry, I'll test myself with another 16 km run this Sunday. I often wonder why I derive pleasure out of inflicting pain out of my body - hey, that should make me a prime candidate for some other non running activities.

Looking at one end of the apartment with the fancy flat screen tv and the IKEA mood lighting I feel as though I've finally grown up and got myself a big boys apartment with proper furniture and fittings. However, when I walk into the bedroom I see the 5 unpacked boxes cluttered in the corner. I reckon they will be in the same location when I move out of here and so at the end of the day things really haven't changed. However, the other day I cleaned the kitchen, vaccumed the floor and cleaned the bathroom without expecting guests or any sort of mold... and believe me, no one ever has ever suspected me of cleaning up on a whim - thats usually Min Wei's job. Perhaps now that I'm living alone I'm starting to get more organized about day to day chores? It could just be the exitement of living in a new place and once the motivation goes - the state of the apartment will go along with it. I'll have to get back to you on that on in a few months.
