When it rains it POURS
So it's no secret that I want to move back into the city soon.
It's been looking pretty grim - then today BAM.
I'm looking at two apartments tonight and I have two more on the horizon.
Tonight:
Apt #1
Studio. 102nd and Bway
My old college room mate lives there now, but he's moving back to Cali.
I hear from people that its gorgeous. Great Neighborhood. But MEGA expensive. He pays $1380 now and it will most likely go up if/when I sign the lease.
Apt #2
2 BR on 68th and 1st
With Kenton. HILARIOUS co-worker/co-chorister. (Will we be seeing too much of eachother...?) It's a rental from a renter so it's a SMIDGE sketchy. Rent due in cash. Plus I'm a little wary about what happens if the guy wants his place back like...now. There's no lease. SKETCH - but it's cute.
On the Horizon:
Apt #3
3BR in Astoria (exact location unknown at this point)
A friend from college and one of her friends.
VERY CHEAP ($618). 15 minute walk from the nearest subway (boo). Don't know much about it yet, but i'll check it out for that price.
Apt #4 (most excited about)
2BR in Astoria. Steinway and Northern Blvd. This neighborhood is REALLY nice (Movie theater, great resturants/bars, and they just opened an Applebees!)
Co-worker, Ahmad. We get along very well. The apartment was recently GUT RENOVATED. It's a block from the train. My rent would be $700 (!!) And he has Rock Band. For real - does it get better? But he has a current room mate where he lives now that he wants to ditch so badly - but he's very nice and doesn't want to leave him high and dry (but he really does)
SO IT'S ALL UP IN THE AIR.
One thing's for certain. I will be back in the city one way or another before....May?
Yes. May. It's in writing now.
