I am officially an apartment leaser! [08 Sep 2006|09:50pm] [ mood | cheerful ] So, back to regular old news. I know I've been super bad at actually updating about things of importance that don't include boys and i'm super sorry for that! So on Rent.com there's this little thing where you post a profile saying you're looking for a roomie and all that shit and this girl sent me a message and i was all what apts are you looking at and she told me and it turns out that 2/2 between two people is waaaaay cheaper than a studio for one person. So we exchanged numbers, decided to go look at this one place and my grandma came with and we get along SO WELL. I'm so happy! And she has a really really cute doggy! Anyhoo we looked at a couple of places and we were both disappointed at what we'd seen. It was all smelly and dingy/small for outrageous prices. Then yesterday we went to look at Colonial Grand Apartments at Palma Sola and as soon as we walked into the apartment we looked at eachother and knew that it was THE PLACE and super affordable too. So we did all the paperwork, paid this lil fee and we were both kinda sweating whether or not we'd get approved (even tho she's 25 and has more to her app). Then today she called and told me that we'd been approved and that we're moving in on the 22nd! Isn't that awesome. It's great cuz my grandparents have a friend who got me a ton of furniture for free and i've been getting all this stuff and everything has just fallen into place except for a job. But it'll work itself out. Funny thing is lately I've been really bumming about how everyone I know is going off to their nice colleges and stuff and I was feeling kinda like a failure even though I know very well I could have done the same thing. I will eventually, but now is not the right time. Maybe it is for everyone else, but I am actually out in the REAL WORLD. Going to college is that, but a little different. This is a real nice break. I'm really loving it. And I'm actually starting to put on a tan. I'm going to be glowing like J. Lo this christmas! Imagine that! 2 comments|post comment
