Confirmed
Move-in date to my new apartment will be July 1st. Who wants to help me move?
My place is about a 2.5 minute walk from Downtown New Haven, .. meaning :
1. Lots of bars close-by. Drunk + no driving + crash space nearby. So come by.
2. Lots of restaurants nearby. A vegetarian place, a few noodle bars, a diner, a pizza place. And, of course, Mamouns. Right across the street. Seriously. Falafel's for all.
3. Close to Southern. Good for schooling. Not far from work, too.
.. The downside of my apartment. I'm no longer in Stratford. Yes, yes, it's crazy. I mean, sure, other people have gotten dorms and what not, but they just stay there for school and come back home. This apartment will be, essentially, my new home. I'm not just going away for school and coming back. I'm going away. Not far, mind you, and I will come home to do laundry and all but, .. it's weird. Next month, if you come to my house to hang out, I won't be there. I can't just run over to Pat's house after work. I can't just go to the Green to get some chinese food, or talk a walk to Longbrook. If I want to visit Courtney or Crystal, it's no longer a five or ten minute walk. It's a half hour drive.
In essence, I'm gone.
Already, it looks like my summer is booked. Lots of hanging out with the usuals. And now Amy is moving in on the same day I am, about a block away. So she's super-psyched we get to hang out. Not to mention Marina, a girl from security, wants to hang out with me once I move in, being she just moved into her place in New Haven last week. Oddly, she was sending me secret text messages the other night when I was five feet away, wanting to know if I wanted to go out to drink with her. Odd.
Also, there happens to be a girl down at GameStop, though she has a boyfriend, whom is very affectionate towards me. Run-and-hugs when she sees me, telling other officers to say to me for her, .. all that. She even bought me an anthropology book she saw at the bookstore, because she thought of me. Because she thought of me. It may not seem like anything big, but this doesn't happen to me. Ever. Seriously. I don't think it's ever happened to me, in my life. I can't recall an incident where a girl simply bought me something, on a whim, because she saw something I might like. When she told me she had, I was baffled. I just kind of was like, "Oh. Thanks." .. I had to inform her how happy and enthusiastic about it I actually was, because being so dumbfounded and surprised, I had no expression on my face or in my voice. I need to work on that.
