a place to call home

Things are looking up. Yesterday I put first month's rent down on an apartment in Brighton Center. Assuming all goes well today when the landlord reads my application, it's mine.

The apartment has its pro's and con's as all apartments do when you're on a budget. Check out the listing here.  Craigslist may take down the ad soon, though. 

Pro's:

- Modern kitchen & bathroom

- Hardwood floors

- Laundry in building

- One block from 501 express bus into town

- In heart of Brighton Center, close to everything we need

Con's

- It's small

- It's on top a store front

- It's not in Brookline :(

- It's far (relatively) from my Brookline family

Despite the con's, I truly think Christian and I can make it our little home! We promise to host dinner and game parties even if it's no mansion. I can't wait to go "Ikea crazy" on the place, haha. 

However, that will have to wait as it is costing me $4k to move in so I'm broke for awhile, argh. 

What do you think? Is it cute? :)
