finally found an apartment!!!
it was the last one i saw today... and i think it must definitely be karma... cuz there were so many little things that happened by chance, without which i wouldn't even been able to see the apartment at all... so it must meant to be for me! :)
i'm so excited!!! it's literally 3x bigger than my current space (well, that's not too difficult, as my apartment is only slightly larger than a regular-sized closet --- not very guest-friendly at all)... it's in this really cute old building on beacon street, 2 blocks away from charles river & the esplanade, has a dark red wall on one side, a beautifully carved old black iron stove (not working) which really adds character to the room, plenty of closet space, separate kitchen with counter, a real bathroom, washer and dryer right outside of my room, and oh, did i mention that the apartment is HUGE?
all for $5 more than what i'm paying for the little hole i'm in right now...tragic, isn't it?
tried the route from my future apartment to the nearest T with Willy, and found out that it would only take about 5-7 min. walk... so it's not too bad... i just have to wake up a little bit earlier... afterwards, went to "the dish" for dinner & wine with kiki, dini & gusye... a really nice and cozy little place in south end...
i'm really beat though... walked around in my platform shoes almost all day yesterday and all afternoon today to see apartments... so glad it's finally over, and i don't have to think about it anymore...
went to see "about a boy" yesterday with wendy, jimmy & audy... it was a pretty good movie, even though it's a little bit too hollywood... audy said that nick hornby's novel was much more interesting... after the movie we decide to walk down to the beantown pub for a few drinks... had some pretty interesting conversation and ended up staying there until the place closed...
