saturday: finding a place...

since i was turned down by peter's place,
i needed to act further in finding a place to live.

i sent an email friday night for a place that's kind of far from campus,
and stands above some steep hills.

(what i was thinking...)
walking around and taking a bus in hawaii is completely inefficient.
if i could get a moped for about $500, that would solve all my problems.

the guy called me saturday morning about the place.
i told him i was looking to get a moped,
and that i will go see the place sometime in the afternoon.

the search in buying a moped goes completely awry; the day was hot and humid,
and nothing was going as it should, kind of like jonah, on his way to tarshish...
by then, i was pretty sure the place on the hill was not where i was to live.



i had a phone number for another listing that was located a lot closer to school;
if i were to live at that location, i would only need a bike.

the only hang up that i had about this particular listing was that the listed phone number had the area code of "541." i had no idea nor any interest at the time where "541" was.

throwing up a prayer, i called the number.
long story short, i end up at that location; praise God.
(it turns out, "541" is in the portland area)
