Move Time!

This is the story of how I found my first solo apartment

     I've been looking at apartment listings online for about forever.  So when Brett was planning a visit he offered to go look with me.  I was a little worried about his response to seeing a studio, no matter what it looked like.  I don't think he's ever seen an apartment in the city let alone one I can afford.  
     As soon as we got off the el I knew I was in trouble. The area was super cute with children playing and people walking around everywhere, if the apartment sucked I was going to be very sad.  We walked the very manageable distance from the train to the building which is across the street from the lake.  Near the el and the lake and a Dominick's (that's a real grocery store!!).  Location, check.
     The maintenance guy was super nice and as soon as I walked into the apartment I was sold.  It had everything on my check list and my wish list. Nice.  I'm really happy and excited to move. Since I moved back into the parents house about three years ago some of my stuff has been in boxes.  I have things I haven't seen in years. Weird.  
     This will also be the first time I've ever lived alone.  
FREEDOM! 

     Also, Brett had to make a short video of himself (like a day in the life) for an internship application.  He decided to draw pictures for his video instead.  It's fantastic!
