All of my housemates were away this week for their spring break, which meant that I got the entire house all to myself. Such solitude.
There have been snippets of time when I would have the house to myself for an afternoon or so, but this was the first time where I would have a solid chunk of that freedom.
At first I was hesitant to be alone at night, to come home to an empty house. But I quickly got over that feeling. I absolutely love living all by myself. It is so nice to wake up in the morning to the quietude of small rays of sunshine peaking through my window. Loafing around the house is a natural event, and doing it in my pyjamas is a common occurrence. Also, there is this satisfaction in picking my own music for the evening to listen to while I make dinner.
Arman and his girlfriend came home last night, and while no loud, drunk, obnoxious partying occurred I was still mildly resentful at having my Friday night suddenly intruded upon. Oh well, what can you do. We ended up watching The Invention of Lying, which was hilarious with Ricky Jervais, and I recommend you watch if you have an hour and half to spare. After that we saw The Time Traveler's Wife. My feelings were mixed about this movie when I first heard about it coming out as I've read the book, and wasn't sure how it would translate on screen. It turned out that the movie was surprisingly good. Definitely a chick flick (as in it made me tear up), but the plot flowed quite well and didn't leave me bored at any point.
I had every intention of going to the farmer's market this morning, but sometimes you just need to sleep in. It's 1pm and I'm still in my pj's. Today is just going to be one of those beautiful days.

Is it because you didn't know Arman and his girlfriend would be coming back last night, and you were walking around the house with your face covered in one of those deep pore cleansing masks? :P haha, just kidding!
hey! and how do you know Arman isn't reading this right now? How do you think he'd feel! :D you know you're renting a shared house and anyone can come and go as they please! haha! just kidding again! :) I actually think I can relate 100% (i.e. time in France, uh-huh).
p.s. sweet sweet breakfast! :d mmm, I want some! sounds very vegetarian of you too actually!
p.p.s. mmm, Time Traveler's Wife was ok. I do kinda like Eric Bana and Rachel McAdams though! And I heard good things about The Invention of Lying!
p.p.p.s. Miss you! Glad you're coming home to see me SOON! :)
you must really like sweet breakfasts. i did bread + banana combo today too (no raisins or coconut or honey) and it was way too sweet.
