Things Will Change

Lesson of the day, don't assume things are always going to work out the way you want them and be open to new possibilities. It's funny how you think you have life lessons like that down, but really you don't...in other words, we didn't get the apartment on pine because we found out they were asking for a 5 month lease plus a deposit when we are only here till May. It was definitely not worth it, though the neighborhood was a little cuter. After a long search all over the city (when I was just expecting to sign a lease) and going through emotional roller coasters as places were taken from our fingertips, we found our dream loft. It will be finished with its new renovations by Saturday when we move in. It has wood floors, an all brick side wall, 4 bedrooms, 2 baths, and a stainless steel bar/counter top area. Its style is great. The best part--$288 per month for 5 people. Utilities are around $150 so that means $30 per person extra per month. Such a good deal!

Next step is signing the lease tomorrow at 1:30. Also we have our first City Seminar which is my political science class and then some thrift and rental shopping!!

Okay, I would elaborate but I am exhausted. Have a great night!
