mission accomplished

So incase you guys haven't heard...I did INDEED find an apartment, and I AM moving out the 17th. It's called Bremerton Gardens, and I am extremely excited.
I have some furniture, and I have been bargain shopping for like lamps and rugs (I have hard wood floors)
Other than all the excitement of that, there is all the anxiety of being at home, with my parents nagging me every second I am home, telling me I am heading for a disaster. And perhaps I am..but when am I not? I just have to make the best of everything that I have, and be resorceful now..Shouldn't be too hard.
My mom said she'd help me out, and is sending me a gift card to Target, b/c she knows it's my favorite store, and that I am gonna need some things. My dad keeps thinking that there's some guy involved in me wanting to move out so soon, or that I'm pregnant (He hasn't said that last part out loud, but I can tell he's thinking it) But he's wrong in both cases. I am not moving out to live with a guy, nor am I pregnant. I want freedom and complete independence. Something I've strived for...well since I knew what those words meant. I took my dad, Adam and Ben to see the outside of the building and the neighborhood after Sunday dinner a couple days ago, and my dad said he felt a little bit better. B/c it's a nice neighborhood, and the buildings are clean. And on the way there, he made the comment of: "Kristen, please don't tell me that you're moving to these apartments just because you're mother lived 2 blocks away from here.." And I had no idea. The way he said it was heart-breaking. Why does he hate her so much? Well...I think I can figure that out. But jeez. And he took us over to her old apartments, and then it was like lightning..all these memories came to...sitting on the grass by the pool, underneath the willow, talking to her bird, Casey. And walkin around with my baby blanket. It was amazing.
Well as to my "Boy Situation" Mark is completely out of the picture. He left today, and called me Monday night to hang out with me and Steph (he has a friend, Taylor who wanted to hang with her) But I said she couldn't b/c she hadda stay home. So he was like Ok, let me call you in a few minutes...So an hour later, I call him, no one answers...And about 2 hours later, I text him saying that I was frustrated with him, and all I wanted was to see him again..And I still haven't heard from him. So whatever. That hurt a little. But I'm ok.
I've been hangin with Keith, Mike and Ben, and a new one Brian, Mike B., Shane and Aaron, Daryl. They're all really cool, and we have hella fun.
Ah damn, I gotta get ready for work...later
