New York is rainy today
I'm in my apartment in New Yorkkkk
No pictures though, because the weather is DISGUSTING! Pictures to come later in the week, hopefully this narsty weather will clear up.
Here's the lowdown...
My apartment? Not exactly as swanky as I had hoped. I was expecting it to be as least as nice as Commons but it's really not at all. It's cool to have the 2 floors (downstairs is the bedrooms and bathroom and upstairs is the common room and kitchen) and the common room is huge, but this thing really is a glorified dorm. Sure, my room has real walls, but it's so bare...I definitely need to do some decorating. The common room also needs work - definitely needs some color and maybe some string lights? And we're getting a tv from my roommate Celeste's uncle, so obviously that is important to me haha. We have to pay for cable, but it comes with HBO which is AWESOME because I get to watch Big Love!! Hmm what else...the previous occupants stored a ping pong table in the closet so we moved that upstairs because our common room is huge and it will be a sweeet pong table. Oh our stove doesn't work. This is a biiiig problem that I will be working on tomorrow, seeing as I don't start working for another week.
I wish the weather was nicer so I could explore!!
Anyway, my parents and I went to Ollie's for lunch, which was really delicious and I'm glad I could introduce them to it. And I already found an awesome supermarket right on Broadway. I need to make a shopping list - another thing to do tomorrow. Since I'm trying to diet I think I'm going to make a sort of "meal plan" for the week and then make my shopping list based off of that.
My roommates are cool - my roommate, Katie, goes to Southern Methodist in Dallas (as does her friend who lives in the single next to us) and she's from NC. Her friend Meredith is from California, our other roommate Celeste is from Mississippi and our last roommate Quinn is from Minnesota. I'm the only one who drove, lol. Katie and Celeste are interning at NBC - women after my own heart.
So yeah. I think that's about it for today - definitely need to get that oven fixed tomorrow!
