new york apartments Saturday May 22
i came to new york to get some time away from school life. time to do things i want to do -- like play guitar, write, study japanese, make this website more than it is now, etc. yet, since i got here on wednesday, i haven't taken a single moment to stop and post about everything thus far. i've been far too busy apartment hunting. let's see, i've already seen ten different places in the past 3 days. that's a lot, given that each one requires an initial phone call or e-mail, followed by an arranged showing, which i have to take time to go to and find, followed by the eventual phone call where i tell them i'm not interested any longer because i found a better place.
problem is, the better place i've found is too rich for my blood. so instead of relenting, i'm searching for roommates. i would live slightly cramped in a nice apartment before i'd have all the room in a dull one. and that's where i think i am different than most people; it's a matter of finding someone who thinks the same.
let's see if i've got any stories yet. new york is great for stories. oh, this one will do. i met a guy today who works for nickelodeon. what a terrible job. but he deals with steve from blues clues, and so he was telling me about steve. apparently steve lives in williamsburg (where else, williamsburg is where the cool kids whose parents still support them live-, or where the hipsters are. or both.) and he has a band that is reasonably successful -- they've got major distribution on their latest record. who would have thought, from the guy who everyone said was dead a year ago?
