In the Beginning

And the blog has begun....

Expect me to be all over the place in the next few weeks. In the midst of graduation, leaving my internship, traveling for a month, and starting a new job in Houston, I will have a wide variety of things to write about. Besides that, I find my thoughts quickly changing from one subject to another naturally.

Right now, subleasing is on my mind. Since I won't be in Austin much over the summer, I decided a while back to sublease my room and save a bit of money. Now that I am definitely moving to Houston, the idea is even better. I had someone set up to lease my room several weeks ago that should have moved in last weekend. Silly me, believing in the honesty of people, didn't make this guy sign anything or give me any money upfront. Then, when I go to get a hold of him, he doesn't ever respond. At least if you are going to flake out on something, let the person know!! This guy has yet to make contact with me. I don't get it. So, the last two weeks of my life have been frantic as I have tried to secure a new person. Of course, now that school is winding down, EVERYONE is thinking about subleasing (all those UT students who want to go back home for the summer). I sadly watch as the Craigs List posts pile up day by day, and realize that it will be much more difficult to find someone else - now, weeks later.

To make a long story short, I have JUST found someone, after multiple apartment cleanings, meetings, and fall throughs. Hooray!! I thought the day wouldn't come. I am counting the minutes until I have that check in my hand, and then (and only then), will I be completely happy and breath a huge sigh of relief for the $1000+ dollars I have saved for this summer. And with that, I am done.
