Time To Vent
SO i've been away for a couple of weeks-with moving out of my dorm, having a week off before returning back to school, living off my friends and then finally moving into my apartment which was today!
Okay I've finally realized I’m not a little girl anymore and it's quite frightening.
So-last semester is behind and I realize I no longer want to study journalism at my school. I still have aspiration to do television and writing but I just hate the way my school teaches journalism to us. It's not about how to perfect your writing style it's all about how to change the media, which is great, and dandy but-who the hell cares at least that's how I feel. Plus I’m tired of writing, which many of you gals know. So I’m changing my major to Films Studies. Hopefully I will like it and once I graduate hopefully I can still do television.
As today I moved into my apartment by myself and it was so hectic. I'm still not finish. First off the girl living there before me left it completely dirty. The floors were disgusting and the walls were hideous. Seriously I have no clue what she was doing in that room. The vacuum cleaners and I sort of clean the walls but only so much an all-purpose cleaner can do isn't the best.
I got myself a bed frame since my friend was giving me her mattress-but since I got it from Ikea that means I have to hook it up as well as the cute pink desk I got. Which is fine but I’m a girlie girl I don't think I’ve ever picked up a tool in my life.
I also decided i want to paint my room a different color. Just to have it brittnyfied!

Post a CommentThat really sucks, Britt. I've never been in an apartment that hasn't been cleaned first. The one I'm in right now smelled like cleaners when I moved in and was pretty spotless.
If I could give a bit of advice - don't paint. When you move out (which seems far off but will come sooner than you think), you have to repaint or face fees. Bring color into the room through your furnishings and your textiles (pillows, blankets, etc).
I'd love to see what you've done!
i want to see your room too (especially the cute pink desk!). Maybe you want to invest in getting a cleaning lady to come in? i think its about $30-50 for an apartment. i hate cleaning so i would justify it as a new apartment gift to myself.
As far as school i think that if you weren't happy then it was the best move to make. DOnt waste ur time on something that wasn't making you happy. As long as you have the drive and determination i am sure you will be able to get into TV.
I agree with Fiend!! you have to do what makes you happy! As far as the messy apartment goes, i just moved into a house, which i rent, and the tenants before didnt clean it either! I was totally disgusted having to clean someone elses filth! LOL. not really. anyways, did you have to put down a deposit? Someone told me if the place you move into is not clean, then you should not have to put down a deposit and/or you should not have to clean when you exit the premisis.... maybe check into that? it sounds like you are having fun decorating thought. painting a wall sounds fun!!

Btw i put together my entire bed sunday night.
YAY to you britt for getting the bed together! hope you get your new place totally brittnyfied real soon
WOO HOO for getting your bed put together. I have assembled a ton of furnature from Ikea...fun times! When we moved into our new house I had to clean the kitchen and it was soooo disgusting! The previous owner let stuff drip into the drawers and left it there, just disgusting stuff like that. I wish I had had someone come in and clean it for me. Next time... Good Luck!!!!!

Lots of luck to you, Britt! I hope it works out for you (changing majors, as well as the apartment).
Best of luck! And I bet your room will look great afterwards.
