Apartments

Firstly, I have to say this:

WOW, I actually kept up this for a week. Seriously, I am shocked, man. I didn't think I could get myself to do this because I have such a busy schedule. I suppose typing these entries in the morning before I head to class is the easiest thing to do after all. :)

Looking back at the first week of entries again...makes me realize I need to start keeping a diary again. I didn't realize I was carrying all of this baggage on me. Not that I have shared anything overly personal on this blog, but what I could have typed...I can't even bring myself to share it with my closest of friends most of the time. I'm a private person by nature, so I need to find some way to just let all of this baggage go, I guess.

I did talk to one of my friends about the whole dorm situation yesterday and it turns out that more of my art school friends are staying closer to campus, so that situation is resolved now. Good thing too, with room lottery coming up at my school tonight. My roomie and I are going to try and go for houses with quiet hours, but if all else fails we'll live in an art related house (which is very likely that we'll end up in a decent house because I ended up with a pretty awesome number yay). 

Soooo my roomie and one of my friends and I are looking at apartments since we're all thinking of living off campus starting mine and my roomie's junior year if my semester away doesn't pan out in sophomore year. My friend kept looking on Craig's List for apartments that were like, $500 less a month and I'm just like ".....yeah good luck with that". In the area we are in, it's impossible to get an apartment below $1700 a month. She complained about not having the money for splitting $1700 a month and I'm just thinking "it's called a job, all four of us [including our fourth possible room mate] work one we can manage". I just don't see how it would be feasible to get a working apartment for four people at less than $500 a month, especially considering we would need to get at least two bedrooms so that we don't all drive each other mad if we end up living together.

So, alas, the apartment search continues. Yay for us. D:
