Moving Can be a Breeze

Ok this is the point where I’m like “I wish this thing was done already!” I want my social life back! Up to now, I was fine with having that same study/research/class/clinic routine, but now, i.want.it.done! Maybe I’ll feel better in the morning? Let’s hope so cause I’m only nearing the half-way mark.

Oh yes, I found a place. But what a horrible process it was! I was about to sign the lease on this minuscule apartment – scheduled the date and everything – but that same day I saw a new listing online, made an appointment to see it right after class, at NINE THIRTY (needless to say I was exhausted!) and when I got there to meet the realtor, I felt like I was in a HGTV episode of House Hunters. That put a smile on my face. Who knew that a NY realtor could be so outgoing, professional and warm at the same time??? Then we got to the actual apartment – AMAZING! So I put in an application right then and there, and had to wait a few excruciating days to find out if I got it. And I did! It so happens that Irena (the realtor) also went to St. John’s. Oh and get this, my school’s shuttle bus stops 2 blocks away. Perfect huh?! Anyway, now I’m de-boxing and putting things were they belong. Made good progress over the weekend, but still have a way to go. My cousin’s moving in June, and you better believe he’s gonna go with Irena (I’ll make him!). Come to think about it, my movers were pretty great too: lightning fast, professional and chatty (well I was in a good mood so that might have helped the chattiness). 
 
In other apartment news, I saw the cutest side table, and I’m determined to get it… If it’s still available on Saturday that is. Fingers crossed! Maybe I’ll post a pic if I can figure out how to do that.
