Okay, yeah, the apartment is still more that I would like to be paying, but let's be honest, it will probably be worth it to only have one car and be 1.2, yes, 1.2 miles from Baylor :) Oh, don't worry there is a beautiful park across the street and on the other side, the school. I am so excited for the walking/biking trails in the park and the zoo and museums. I really like the area we will be in. After seeing so many apartments in one day, they all looked the same: tiny. However, this loft is spacious and open, with tall ceilings so I don't think we will feel crammed like we do now. I can't wait to get in there and decorate. I for sure need my lovely interior designer's help. KF Designs help! It is seriously a loft though, cement floors and all. Poor Jerrick, just back home working/studying trusting me to find a place. "So, there's no carpet, like at all" "Um, no...... I will buy you a nice rug" :) So, yeah, I have to start looking for something soft, fluffy, and inexpensive!
Also, they have a pet deposit of $500, you get $250 back, so I said we will be having a dog. I AM SO EXCITED TO HAVE A DOG! They are just so sweet, come on, what kind of person isn't a dog person?? Jerrick really wants to take Sisco from his parents, his golden retriever he got when he was like 11 or something. I've done a lil research, and I've heard that even old dogs are okay with a move as long as they have some familiar things. Sisco loves Jerrick, and Jerrick says his parents don't really want her and couldn't remember the last time she went for a walk, so I think it will be good. The poor thing is just about on her last breath, but will be such a sweetie to always come home to! If anyone has advice about moving a large old dog... input would be gladly appreciated. :)
After talking to Amanda, I ordered all the books I needed! I will probably be delving into them a little early. Let's face it Mom, you were right, I'm a nerd! I also got a couple vaccines that Baylor requires that I was due for so, I'm pretty much ready to go!
But even BEFORE all of this excitement, we are going to Italy. I just decided, if we don't just do it, we never will, and I want to travel so many places! So, before school we have this amazing trip planned. I am so so so excited!
So, pretty much, this blog is me letting out my excitement a little. Because really, I have to remember that I still have to work and finish Microbiology. And me? That's nothing compared to what Jerrick is dealing with. So, for his sake, I will not show my excitement until his semester and MCAT stuff is over. Let me tell you, he and I both can not wait for that day! But right this second... YAY!
