Metro DC

In a month I’ll be moving to the Washington DC Metro area. We already have an apartment. Here is the floor plan our place. It’s 1,000 sq ft. The building is brand new and in a wonderful area. The area is also where I had stayed one summer so I am somewhat familiar with it. It’s also super close to the metro which is great.

I’m SO ready to move and very excited about this place. Mike’s brother checked it out for us and said it was awesome. However, it’s going to cost us $1,000 just to move our stuff up there =_=. People keep suggesting we just leave everything and buy new stuff when we get up there. Oh well, moving is expensive. I’ve been putting in more resumes. I think because I live out of state no one wants to even LOOK at my application. I hope moving there will help me get a job easier. There’s more than enough opportunity which is nice.

I had dinner with my family last night. It was okay. There seemed to be mixed reviews about my moving to DC. My grandparents seem happy, my Dad seems completely indifferently pissed, my Mom is just sad because she knew I’d move far away some day. My little sister is super excited because I said she can stay next summer !

I’ve been doing some knitting, Kim would be proud!

Since school has ended I’ve been passive about everything. Mike hates it because he doesn’t believe me anymore when I say what I feel. I don’t know. I don’t think it’s a bad thing. I’m not scared about moving. I think he wants it to “hit me.” But it’s just not. Sure, going up there with no job and just my savings is scary, but my stomach isn’t in knots over it. I don’t know. I’d rather be up there with no money than here with plenty and miserable. I’m happy. When I think about it I feel happy inside. I haven’t felt happy like that in a long time.

It’s been raining daily, but not long enough

   Wait wait wait, so does this mean I can stay over too?

   …nevermind that’s not a good idea. You-know-who might get mad.

   Wow, the apartment looks really nice (lookin at the floor plans, ). XD I think it’s so cool that you’re gonna up and move to DC with no job or money; it’s neat that your just gonna DO IT. For me, I couldn’t see myself living anywhere else. =/ I’m just the kinda girl that doesn’t like drastic change…. It seems like the RIGHT thing to do for you since you’re not feeling “sick” about it. Congrats and I hope you enjoy your new apartment once you get there and I’m crossing my fingers that you don’t get stuck with noisey neighbors, haha. XP

   niiiiice! looks like it’ll be a great place to stay. $1000 is insane! Hire a big truck and drive your stuff there.

    I’ll be visiting a friend in Alexandria, right outside DC in Sept. Really looking forward to going shopping at knit happens, home to Wendy of wendyknits.net.

    And well. doing all that touristy stuff and shoving my face full of food. ’sounds good.
    Hope the big move goes well. And as for a certain boy, well, maybe it is transference?
