There is nothing more satisfying than saying to your dentist "Yes I have been flossing regularly!" and you mean it.

In other news, we are still ALMOST all moved in here in our bitchin' apartment. Today was the day I fully unpacked. How, you may ask, have I been living in my room but still not unpacked? Well kids, it's an adventure, I'll tell you how!

First of all, make sure you have almost no furniture at all. I had a bed and an almost useful bookcase. Then I made sure to pack all of my clothes that I would actually want to wear at the bottom of my suitcase. That way, I had to throw all of my clothes out onto my floor to find an acceptable pair of pants for the day.

Now, you may be saying to yourself "That's when you pack all your clothes back up, right?" Well you would be wrong, friend! You leave them out, half on the floor half in the closet.

Now my shoes were difficult to manage so I packed them up into a box and tucked that away onto the top shelf of my already half messy closet. See, that's the trick. You have to make sure everything is as inaccessible as possible. It makes every morning (especially those when one is running late for class) that much more of a fun game of frustration.

Well I've taken this far enough but I'm sure if you're still reading you get the picture. So I put together my dresser that came on Thursday today (and some yesterday) and I impulsively bought a TV stand and put it together in a record breaking 10 minutes.

Now I feel at home.

Olivia bought all her furniture all at once and had it her first day, Lana bought it all in a similar time frame. Rokaya has her left behind bed and desk and now she's waiting on her dresser (so she's still playing the "living out of suitcases" game) to be delivered.

Anyway, that's the update on the apartment. I'll be in touch.
