Apartment Hunt

After not receiving a housing contract to live on-campus next year, I have to say that I was at a loss for words. In past years, they had offered 85-95% of applicants housing contracts. This year, I just happen to be one of the 15% who didn't get lucky. I really didn't know what to do; everyone I know had gotten a contract. However, my roommate and two good friends were willing to get an apartment with me. It wasn't my choice but living off campus is my only option since a second housing lottery is highly unlikely.

As a result, in a few hours, one of our good friends will be taking us on a road trip, soul searching for that perfect apartment. And by perfect, I mean cheap. I'll probably have to get another job in the summer in addition to the one that I have lined up in order to pay for everything next year but I don't mind working hard. Everything happens for a reason.
