Moving
I was helping my little brother moved to San Francisco yesterday. it was quite a day =P
I love his new apartment, it's on the 11th floor and has a georgeous view, very airy and bright with many big windows. I don't like the small kitchen, by the way, it's way too small for me =P, but very practical for my brother since he lives alone.
It's a one bedroom with private balcony and spacious living room with chimney. The storage is heaven. 2 large built-in book cases (1 in bedroom, 1 in living room). 3 closets (1 of which is a walk-in closet) and 1 shoe storage.

I'm not sure whether I can survive living in SF, though. I'm more of a country-side girl, I love living in quieter neighbourhood with spacious space.
In fact, there are 3 things I hate about SF. First, the parking sucks. it's hard to find one and if you can find it, it's very expensive. Second, many of the people who drive there are full of anger and always seems to be in rush. honking is a necessity. Third, some neighbourhood are quite scary and I'm pretty sure that you won't see me walking around by myself there...
BUT... there are things I love about SF too, it's quite a lot actually =) The FOOD is number one on my list. So many good restaurants with fairly cheap price. The weather is always cool. The shopping, both clothes and grocery. The accessability, you don't have to have car to go around the city because it offers so many public transportation from bus, muni, bart, cable car, taxi, etc...it's very convenient indeed, although if you live there and need to buy grocery you might still need car if you don't want to carry lots of bags by yourself.
There's always pro and con for everything. While there are so many good things about living in SF, I still prefer to live somewhere just close enough from it so that I can still go there once in a while. How about you guys? Which one do you prefer, living in a big city or a quieter area? Let me know... =D
