A Cardboard Box Would Work

Well, really it wouldn't. Not even in the slightest. Unless it had enough room for me, my things, a desk, and a bed. Oh! And was weather proof.

I've been apartment searching in Boston for two weeks now and my brain is killing me. I do not have an endless budget by any means. I have almost no money to my name currently and after the summer I want to have enough money to pay first/last/security deposit without fully destroying my bank account. It's not easy trying to find an apartment within my price range.

Boston University and the Arts Administration program have been very nice about helping me out as much as they can. I am not being spiteful towards them at all but waiting till June to hear if they have an opening? Classes start September 6th; that is cutting it a bit short wouldn't you think? And the other girl I emailed whose price range was within my own has yet to talk to me...and that was three days ago. I'm a bit antsy, yes I know, but all for good reason. I need a place to stay.

I know I'm complaining and I apologize. No one would happen to know how to find an apartment for less than 650 a month and/or a roommate who is willing to spend that amount so we can have an apartment in the city?

Many things undergraduate didn't prepare me for and this is one of them!

On the bright side, I have been talking to one of my friends who lived down here but then moved up to Massachusetts to be in the armed forces and promises me that he'll be there on the day I move in to help me settle in to my apartment. What a wonderful friend!

Things are working out, I just need to settle down and keep an eye out on things.

I mean hey, I still gotta graduate :P

Love,
Dre
