This is our room. It's a pretty good setup.I didn't notice my photobombing roomie until
after I uploaded this, so sorry Jess! Love you!
This year I feel like I'm just tolerating it until I can upgrade. Don't get me wrong, it's not that bad. I like my roomie and we've got a cool room and it's still fun and all, I'm just a little bit sick of living in a 12 foot square. I'm tired of climbing a ladder to get to bed and sharing a bathroom with 30 people. I want my own bedroom and a kitchen.
So next year it's an apartment! Only I'm still not sure where I'll be living, or who I'll be living with. My current roommate is going to live in the on-campus apartments, which are really nice but really pricey. It'd also be nice because it's close so I wouldn't have to drive to class, and like I said, I like my roomie! Money isn't a huge issue, but I don't want to have to take out more loans just to pay for housing when I could live off-campus for way cheaper. Plus it'd be nice to have a little more freedom and not having to worry about moving back and forth between campus and home. And I'll be 21 next year, so....
The lottery for the on-campus apartments starts Monday, so I kind of need to figure it out soon.
Oh and another issue, my friend that I've talked about living with off-campus happens to be a guy. Not my boyfriend, but a guy that's a friend. I don't see this as an issue, but apparently a lot of people think it is. I talked to my mom about it and she actually seemed ok with it...at first. So now I'm waiting to hear back from my parents, because while I don't really need their permission to live anywhere, I don't want to make them mad. Plus they help me pay for stuff. It'd be really great if they would call me back in a timely fashion, since I do kind of have a deadline here.
Either place would turn out fine, but I'm just not sure what to do yet!
