As of the signing this morning, my 6 friends and I, yes thats 7 girls all together, will be living in a house just off campus known as “Paid Vacation.” I will get my very own room! And all that good stuff. This is very exciting, especially with the ordeal that we went through to get the house.
It all began the first weekend back to school. We hadn’t even started classes yet and we were out, knocking on people’s doors, asking to see their houses. We had two weeks to find one we liked, talk to the house owners, and get the lease signed.
The house we absolutely fell in love with was named Endzone, it was HUGE, brand new remodeling, three floors, three kitchens, 8 rooms. yeah – it was awesome. But it was also over 3k a semester to rent. That is really freaking expensive.
So we kept looking around.
And we talked to the renting company.
And we bugged them some more.
Until finally they essentially promised us a house. They gave us a list, sent us out to look at all their houses, and we got to pick the ones we wanted. Then they told us we would have to wait, they would let us know who was re-signing and who was passing their house down, and things like that.
So it was the night before we were supposed to find out. And one of the girls calls – she decided not to live with us. That put us in a really bad position. We needed to find one more person to live with us to get the house we wanted!
So we set out on a quest….at 10pm the night before. Lucky for us, 3 sorority girls we sort of knew were looking for a place to live. We had them join our group.
The next morning we get a call, we were getting Paid Vacation which had a small second house attached to it for 3 people. Perfect! It worked out really well. 7 in the main house, 3 in the small once.
We got up this morning at 8am. Signed the papers, paid our deposits, and now we are all set for next year.
I feel kinda nervous, its like graduating from dorms! But it will be a great learning experience, and it will be awesome to live with my friends.
Wish me luck haha
