Moving to Chaoyang

Oriental lady packing stuffs in view of moving

I’m moving to Shuduizi 水碓子, in Chaoyang district of Beijing at the end of next week, as my current rent agreement is coming to an end, and I have to move. Although the rent is about the same, I have to pay additional expense in terms of paying the connection fee for internet (about RMB200), and I’m not sure there are decent very cheap restaurants around there. Will check again after I move in. On the other hand, I’m probably going to do some cooking, which might reduce a little my expenses (not likely, stuffs I buy from the supermarket are not that cheap). Why am I moving to Chaoyang? Well, Chaoyang district is the business district, meaning that if I do get a job, it’s going to be not so far away. Reduce travelling time. I currently need about an hour by metro to get there. From my future appt, I wil be to the Guomao station in about 15-20min by bus.

I might also end up not being too much online during the Spring festival, because by experience the number of net users skyrocket during that period, meaning broadband available gets reduced considerably. Added to that the current problems net users are currently facing since the Taiwan earthquake, it’s going to be a real pain in the neck.

Partir c’est un peu mourir would be the terms that I would think of in this circumstance. My Chinese vibes tell me:life is only a succession of changes…after winter comes spring.. Do kiss goodbye to both the pleasant and challenging moments the present location gave you, & file them as souvenir in your life book. Look up to your new abode as the start of the season you have to live to with its inconveniences and its lot of new joys. Experiences to live, a new world to discover! May the new year, the new flat, the new job bring you growth in prosperity and serenity.
You surely got help for your moving…with the femine touch..Very appropriate picture with the carton boxes in the back ground.
