Okay, I did it. I am now the proud sublet-er of a three-bedroom row house in Strathcona. I'm terrified. It's only until Sept 1st, which may seem crazy, but that is an entire summer in a real neighbourhood. Four months of space, a garden and super fun neighbours. I met a few tonight. The ones closest to me were eating oatmeal outside and few doors down a young fellow was having a party with a gaggle of giggling girls spilling in and out of his front door. The rent is $1000 and that includes all utilities - including cable, phone and internet. Now I must trim some fat. Streamline my life and get rid of a lot of stuff. I think it will feel good.
