I have to move because our lease is up on Sept 1, and we are currently over legal occupancy of our current apartment. Here's the long, convoluted story:
I moved in to my current place June 1 last year, taking over for someone who wanted to move in with his girlfriend. Two of the other three people moved out in August, my best friend and his girlfriend moved in Sept 1 last year. So it's me, my best friend, his girlfriend, and one of our (female) friends from our drama club at school who had been living here in our 4 bedroom plase. Mac was in Turkey for a year doing study abroad and got back around the same time. We all talked about it, and everyone said it was ok for Mac to move in with us this June when everyone he was living with graduated (he has one more year left like me). Then in November, our female friend's boyfriend moves in with us, without asking. Doesn't even start paying rent or bills until March/April. Mac moves in in June as talked about before, because he has nowhere else to go. Our female friend and her boyfriend are messy and rude, and now we have 6 people living in a place for 4 people. So Mac and I, and my best friend and his girlfriend are moving around the corner to get away from the other couple in our current apt. Oh, and our landlord won't come do any repairs. They're not critical, but it's things like the kitchen sink is screwy and you have to turn it off a certain way to shut it off completely, some of the lights don't work, the front door needs to be rehung (you have to slam it to get it to shut), stuff like that. So we decided to get out of here. Don't worry, we're paying lots of friends in beer and pizza to help us move, and I'm sure the boys won't let me overdo it. They have a tendancy to be overprotective of me.
And I have decided to take out a larger student loan to at least pay off my credit card and help pay for the fibro doc. I'll keep my current job, if nothing else, because I'll go crazy with absolutely no income, and I actually do like my job. And the way my school works, I can't get the money from the loans that overpays my account until after the second week of each term, so I don't want to get caught in a pinch.
Thanks so much for the suggestions and the love!
