Things I've missed in the past 3 months:
-my own bedroom with four walls
-my own bedroom that has a door
-my own bedroom that I can stand up in
-my own bedroom I can trash without bothering my roommate
These are the types of things you have to sacrifice in order to live in Manhattan.... and I miss them dearly. So, I went on Craiglist-seriously, how did people find apartments before this groovy site popped up?- sent out my cover letter to prospective roommates, and looked at a couple places.
I liked the first place right away. The layout, the roommates, the location- it was all great. And guess what... they asked me to move in! :D So, I'm moving into my new place on April 1st. I will miss my fantastic, current roommate SO much, but she's just a train ride away.
Exciting things are happening over here for me. Not only did I get the place I wanted, but I got rehired at the hair salon which laid me off after only 2 days of work. My mom always taught me never to burn my bridges, and I guess she was right, because when the job opened up again, they called me up and asked if I would come back. YAY MONEY! YAY GOOD INTERNSHIP! YAY NEW PLACE! YAY NEW BOY... more on that later though. I don't wanna get ahead of myself :)

This is so exciting!! Do you have pictures or a link of the new place??
