a new apartment
wow! life has honestly been a blur since i got back to vegas. it seemed like i spent a split second back and then i was rushing to find a new place just a week before my lease was up! learn from me, do your research beforehand so you don’t have a mental breakdown in your car with your parents like i did.
but after days of searching, countless calls, and endless miles driven, i finally have a place of my own! and she’s SO cute! its a one bed one bath, (honestly a lot bigger than i was planning on) and just perfect. i live so close to all my favorites and i’m only 5 minutes away from a trader joes, so honestly, i hit the jackpot.
also, i have a roman bathtub? didn’t know what that was until i moved in and it’s this ridiculously oversized tub? seriously, i can lay down in it haha. i’m not a bath person, but maybe this will give me a reason? my mattress is also currently on the floor and i sort of love it? my parents called me a hippie but, oh well.
it’s so fun decorating a place of your own and seeing it all come together just makes me soooo happy. at first it was weird, living alone. i found myself listening for other peoples noises because i’ve always lived with people. so now, that i am alone it’s this really cool feeling of being independent but also wishing someone was here? i don’t know how to explain it. i’m talking myself into getting a cat— or 40 plants.
but i do love living by myself, i cook when i want, no one can tell me to turn my music down, and i can decorate the place of my pinterest dreams! last night i had the night off so i camped out on my ridiculously comfy couch (the couch my dad hates haha) and watched 10 movies while eating trader joe cookies, and it was simply perfect. i’m getting into my own groove here on my own, and it is quite exciting.
xx,
