Apartment Search, The II

We're —we being my father and I— hoping to move out this house by August; he says the house is already sold, but I'm not sure what exactly he means because of the ambiguous way he says it and the fact that most of the tenants are still here (so maybe that hope to move out is more of a have to move out).

There was a studio I wanted to get (with the intention of eventually paying my parents back for it) but my mom doesn't think it's a good idea since if I ever wanted to move in to a place with better privacy (i.e. have a bedroom and separated kitchen) it would be hard to get rid of the studio.

It's not helping that New York City isn't exactly known for low rent, but I really rather find a place in Queens than in any other borough: Manhattan is too expensive, Staten Island too far, Brooklyn too dangerous, and the Bronx is too far and too dangerous (no offense auntie rofl). Actually, to be fair, that's not entirely accurate but it goes without saying that it's hard to find an affordable place in a decent location. I'm hoping I can get full time hours with what sounds like a very much free lancey job I got at the tutoring company.

More importantly, I want to be able to go back to school as soon as next Spring but no later than next Fall and try to figure out the differences between the intricacies of the programs I'm interested in (MSW/LCSW, LMHC, and MSEd.) so that I get into the right field with the better amount of flexibility (as I see myself working in either a school or a private mental health practice).

I better get moving because time is running out.
