Apartment hunting is tiring. My mother is here this weekend and we have been actively looking for a new apartment for me. To be honest, I'm just so tired of going into the exact same apartment on a different street with different carpet. I feel as though every single apartment is the same floor plan and that nothing we go to has everything I want. I know I'm just being a snob and that if I genuinely want to save money I will have to sacrifice something, I just don't want to!

Other than the repetitive apartment hunting things are going really well. I've been keeping myself out of trouble (mostly!) and enjoying the summer.

I read HP7 twice. Yes, twice. I rushed through it the first time because I wanted so badly to know what happened that I felt a second read through was necessary to fully understand every last detail. I think it was a great choice. I really enjoyed the book. To be honest, I am a little upset that there will be no more Harry Potter. I truly loved those books and the characters and now I will have to rely on the movies (which of course, are just mediocre) to fulfill my HP addiction. Or I can reread the series...tough choices.

Packing is meh...I haven't really started too much, but I have tons of boxes! Goals for this week: get an apartment (turn in apps, etc.), finish packing all books (take any I don't want anymore to used bookstore or give away), go through all of my clothes (take anything unwanted to goodwill), and pack up a large portion of the kitchen. Whew! Sounds exhausting!

Wish me luck!
