After high school graduation with my good buddy we thought to continue with the education. You know why, right. That is one of the most basic things that your parents imprint to you wail growing up. You should study so that you can get a good degree and start a job witch will be beneficial and you will like. A job that respectful not something minor like cleaning dishes or being a storehouse boy. Yeah that kind of imprint.
We thought that continuing together in one university would be best solution, since we were friends for quite some time now. But then again we had different interests. He was interested in economics, business and stuff around that. My interest was with computers, design, programming, administration and so on.
That was kind of a wall between us. How are we suppose to study totally different subjects in the same university ? One thing we go clear, that from this point on in life each of us would have to take a different path. Of course that wouldn't mean that our friendship would perish. Still I thought that we live in the same town and we will get to see each other from time to time. Even our apartments were close, our parents knew each other. But unfortunately for me I was wrong that we would live in the same town.
My oldest friend decided to study abroad. Not that I want him to get all the fame but he was really smart and knowledgeable. He easily went through high school and was taking extra lessons from a privet school. If he really wanted to succeed in marketing or economics it was necessary for him start properly.
I mean to say that here in my country that won't possible because of the lacking education system. If he were to start properly everything would go more smoothly for his studies. His decision was based on that if he starts learning everything in english language not only that his english would improve but also his understanding and communication would would be better. Special terms would be easily understandable and pronounced. Its a fact that english is the most widely spread language on the planet. Almost everyone communicates on it, if they are from different countries.
Well when we met started talking about english this and english that. And he was talking about learning economics so I took a wild guess that he was going to study abroad. I got right.
Since today it has been one and a half year when he moved partly there. But the reason why I am telling this story is that he decided to move there, permanently. He constantly kept saying that to live in London is like a dream. The problematic part was when I found out that he wants to get some furniture form his room back home into the the new one in UK. I found that really disturbing because he moved on from our country, his lifestyle should be entirely different from ours. I guess even if he went to another country he had some kind of a nostalgia for his old place and wanted to move on step by step.
Well lets get to the part witch from the start I thought it was going to be problematic. Moving furniture thousand of kilometres was...well kind impossible. Meaning it would be more than expensive to hire some moving service from my country or to make his parents do it was out of the question.
Following along, my friend said that isn't a problem. He just happen to start a part time job with some moving service in London. He said that because he is a employee there he will get a discount. Also depending on the season, the type of service and other bizarre reasons he got a big discount.
Eventually the moving was done fast. It took them less than a week, well less than I had anticipated for them to finish. I was partly in shock how good can a moving company be. He recommended it to some friends of his who were moving out of London. They got pleasantly surprised because they didn't thought that moving services from London would actually do business out of the city or even out of the country.
So by any chance if you are going to move in to UK find the moving services London and they will take care of everything for you.
