Script
I have to find a new place to live. My apartment is just too small, and I can’t fit all of my stuff inside. First, I need more than one bedroom. Second, I love to cook and there is no space in my kitchen. Finally, I like to host many parties for lots of friends, so my tiny living room just doesn’t work! A larger bathroom with a bathtub and a shower would be nice, too.
