aaaaugh.

so i've been waffling on whether or not to stay in my current place after graduation - it's not the perfect apartment, and i'm getting kind of lonely on my own, but moving is such a PITA... so I was leaning toward staying, until I got home just now and found a notice on my door...

they're jacking my rent.

not by just a little bit, either. it's going to go up to $850. that's a $100 increase. EIGHT FRACKING FIFTY. do I look like I can afford that?

$850 for a 600-sf, 1br, 1ba, tiny little 1-person apartment. $865 if you include Frida's rent.

no. fracking. way. guess i'll be giving them my notice and looking for somewhere else to live after graduation.

DAMMIT.

Hey!

That totally blows. I don't know how students afford rent; I don't know how I will when I'm in school this Sept. If you ever need a place to crash, just hit me up. I'm currently living in an empty, 2Bdr apartment. Rent is $500 and I'd be happy to kick the jerf moving in out and open my door to you!
Are you graduating next weekend? Congratulations!

hmmm... that is very tempting. but i don't want you to have to kick anyone out on my account... you're still in Eastlake, right?
yeah... I'm graduating 2 weeks from yesterday... scary!
