upDAT

my lease is signed.
one year.

my apartment is simply perfect.

when you walk in there is a short hallwayish thing. on the right wall there is door number 1. door number one is a walk in closet. then door number 2, the bathroom, door number 3 is a linen closet. on the left side of the wall you'll see door number 4. door number 4 is yet another closet. you can walk in it but it's not technically a walk in. at the end of the hallway thing there is my bedroom door. after you see all these various doors you can turn left and walk under an arch thing out of the hall & into the living room. walk straight in the living room & turn left to get into the kitchen & dining place thing. thingy.!

the living room was this odd yellow color on three walls & then a lighter yellow accent wall. the hallway was also an odd yellowish color & the bedroom was a dark, dark, dark, dark (i cannot stress this enough), dark forest green. so not my taste...

&&&& surprisingly, my parental actually gave me the option of painting these places.

= <3 much love, so:

last week i finally picked out the final colors for on the walls. entryway hall thing: blue, bedroom: green, living room: blue, archway into living room: green

sherwinwilliams.com search = straightforward green & splashy

with that out of the way, time for furniture :]

today was that day.

in my living room i've a couch & a loveseat as well as a floor lamp, two end tables, two lights (for said end tables), an 'entertainment stand' which matches the end tables, television set, STRAWBERRY SH0RTCAKE DVD PLAYER. yes, i admit it. :] on the other side of the room = my laptop desk & thingy to do my projects on.

in le bedroom i have a new canopy bed which i am already well in love with. it has blue/greenish colored curtain thingies on it & i l0ve. also a chair i reupholstered which i love. &&& a closer & a dresser that i will absolutely not be able to fit much into because of a combination of: i have too too many clothes & it's a tiny dresser.

tomorrow i am going back to get everything in order and put things how i like them & then i will finally be able to live there.

the only - is that the parking situation is pretty much nonexistant. i get to park a few blocks away or more basically every day. & i have to move my car by 8 the next morning if i do luck into overnight parking somewhere after 6.

whew

time for relaxing :D

move in, move out

i broke up with james craig on his birthday, the 25th. i didn't even make his cake. he was terribly drunk and acting like a complete idiot. the whole ordeal i just wish not to relive. it is so odd that right when you start to think you can count on someone, they let you down. i feel like i just wasted the last two years (& some months) of my life on this person. we are still friends i suppose, but are we really? if i really needed something, could i rely on him to help me? i do not know. not knowing things is what gets to me, because i feel so unsure.

i'm glad i did it, but i feel bad at the same time. he needs to learn to grow up, and i'm not sure that is something he can handle. he is also not on any medication at this point, which makes him unstable and explosive whether he sees it or not.

i have two more boxes of things, and then i will be completely moved out of that apartment. college is coming in august, and there is this beautiful apartment not half a mile from the school which i fell in love with today. today, today. it is gorgeous. it is in the historic building registry for the city & it was built in the 1930's. it's absolutely wonderful!

i am so nervous about college starting, making new friends, moving again, so many things.

i have been very confused lately.

at this very point in time i must go because my cat is biting my leg(?) & i need some smokes.

ta (:
