Farewell, 56 St Mark's Place

Tonight is my last night here, a place called "home" for me during the past eight months and a half month....almost 2% of my 293 month-old life.
Feels like some part of me will always be in this house.


1. First Encouter

I found this house from craigslist.org, in December 2005.
I never believe in love at first sight, but I fell in love with this place since the first step entering this 120 years old house.
Everybody keep saying "are you crazy?? it's tooooo far!!!"
but that won't prevent me from moving here.


2. First month in the house : mid Dec 05 - mid Jan 06

I finished my fall semester in NYIT, had a new year party with almost 12 Thai friends, and saw the snowstorm for the first time in my life.
It was a magical moment
Cozmo became "my boy"
I started to learn how to cook
went to Baltimore


3. Second month in the house : mid Jan - mid Feb 06

Spring semester started, I took five classes
less time to enjoy the house, missed the cherry blossom because I was too busy with school
Started to shoot video, starring Cozmo


4. Third month in the house : mid Feb - mid Mar 06

entering the 25th year of my life
P'Golf moved from San Fran Cisco to New York
play hard, work harder
Learning a lot from school
Funny how it was still cold, as if it was still winter
went to wolman ice skating ring for the first time
bought a new camera, get closer to Suna, Chien, Ed, P'Golf


5. Fourth month in the house : mid Mar - mid Apr 06

6. Fifth month in the house : mid Apr - mid May 06

7. Sixth month in the house : mid May - June 06

my parents loved the house, and I was so glad they enjoyed it

8. Seventh month in the house : mid June - mid July 06

Summer semester ended

9. Eight month in the house : mid July - now

found a new place
started moving like crazy
and here I am
updating my blog in the kitchen, just like old time

I will always love the memory here
