The Baby
Today I went house hunting with Rebekah. We found some pretty intriguing places to call up and read more on...like Van Burren apts. off of Smithville and a few cute, but run down places in Southpark that have ALOT of character to them. Probably the best was this quaint one-half of a duplex in the Oregon District...it even has a private back patio area and is probably Rebekah and I's favorite feature! I could probably walk to Stivers too once it gets relocated to its new building on 5th. It IS however JUST out of the budget we wanted to be spending...so I don't know, I think we'll look more on Wednesday and tomorrow I am going to call about those places in Southpark.
I am, however apprehensive about moving out. For really ONLY one reason and I'll tell you why...My parents really really really don't want me to move out. In fact, they don't want me to move out so much that they've offered to help me with grad school IF AND ONLY IF I stay and live at home. I thought that was pretty low of them...its pretty much blackmail in my opinion. That's A LOT of money to just be throwing away, but if I'm not going to get out there and get on my own feet now when will I be?? I'll be attached to my parents all through grad school if I let them pay for anything and I figure if I really need help...won't they help me anyway? I don't know...I am really angry at them for putting me in this position. I want to move out, I make a decent amount of money now and I've been doing well responsibility wise lately. Yes, I understand I'd be saving a lot of money living at home, but I'm 22...I feel like it might be time for me to live on my own...I'm the baby, I was spoiled, I need to stop being so. I don't know.
I died my hair last night (I'm not being a very good flower child putting chemicals in my hair...). Dark Mahogany Brown. I like it a lot. I also got a ton of clothes from Value City for super cheap and they are CUTE!
My mom has been finding a lot of vintage cameras for me at garage sales so far my new collection includes...
Polaroid Automatic 103 Land Camera w/ Flash Bulb (pretty sure the film is long since out of production for this camera...)
Kodak 35mm Pony 135 w/ flash
Kodak 620mm Vigilant Junior SIX-20
so it looks like the only really usable camera is the 35mm but we'll see how things go...
hair cut tomorrow, vet visit wednesday! bye!
