"We're movin' on up, to the east side"

I am now currently in the process of having my annual moving.  Every year around this time, I move it seems!  But hopefully, this time, I won't want to move after just one year.  The plan is to actually stay in this new apartment until I am done with school/save lots of money to move into an actual house of my own.

I've always wanted to live in this building that I am moving to (because one of my best friends has lived there for almost 3 years and loves it) but when I went to look at openings in the building a few weeks ago all the one bedroom apartments were VERY small.  My bed would probably fill the entire room.  So I went home a little discouraged that I would not be able to get an apartment layout similar to my friend's place.  Then I decided to keep pursuing and not settle for less than I wanted and well, it paid off! I emailed just a week and a half later and they replied to me right away saying they just had the keys dropped off for #405 (the next door to my friend!) and I could see it that day if I wanted.  So I went to see the apartment, loved it, and the manager recognized me from having lived in a different building he owned back in 2008, so he said right away if I wanted it I could have it and he wouldn't make me pay the application fee even!

So July 10th I will be back in downtown Milwaukee and LOVING IT!  Pics to come soon!

Now if only I could stop procrastinating on the packing... ;-)
