nycmermaidWell it's done... the apartment is mine! Now, my head is exploding. My family is telling me I shouldn't move my stuff in until after I get back from Scotland. My father is not being very forthcoming with information or help, which is not like him. I know he doesn't want his little girl moving out, but I really need his help or at least his support right now. I can only move in on a weekday, so I should probably do the big stuff (my dressers, desk, etc.) next Thursday or Friday while I have the long Labor Day weekend. But I'm going to need help and the only person who can do it and doesn't have to work is my brother.
Also, how am I supposed to move my furniture? I only have 2 or 3 large pieces to move; the rest will have to be delivered when I buy it. Can you believe my parents right this second are actually discussing what I can do with all my new furniture when the year is up if I move back home? Thanks a lot for the vote of confidence, guys. "Or maybe you'll be married in a year," says Mom. Bang head here ----> X
So should I rent a van? A U-Haul? There's no way I can drive a truck. My brother is a fairly confident driver though. (I know you have to be 25 to rent a car, but can my 22-year-old brother drive it?) Should I move in my furniture but not move in the computer, TV, etc. till I get back from vacation? Now mom is saying I should buy everything new. There are so many things I have to buy new though.
How did everyone else handle moving into their first apartment? I know everyone's experience is different, but I have so many questions. I also have to start an account with Con Ed and with the phone company. I guess I should do that before I move in, right?
I can't believe this is all happening right before Ally's wedding and my trip. Oh wait, yes I can.
