List: New Apartment/Old Apartment

Things I miss about the old apartment:

• top (third) floor corner
• southern exposure with bedroom window facing west
• huge living room
• lots of storage
• light and airy

Things I like about the new apartment:

• green carpet instead of pukey brown
• water tight
  
• no giant holes in the walls of front room where dry wall was removed to dry out wet wall from leak
• new sofabed (thanks, Karine!)
• more storage
• brighter bathroom

Things I'll have to get used to in the new apartment:

• all windows face east, therefore apartment is less bright and airy
• more noisy neighbours, being on the second floor

The weirdest part is that the kitchen is similar to but not the same as the old kitchen, meaning that instead of adjusting to a whole new layout, I have to negotiate a weird layout that resembles the old one. It's kind of backwards, but not entirely.

Photos tomorrow. Fully unpacked (though could use an IKEA trip) but photos not yet hung.
