I just deleted my entire message centre that I haven't checked in ages. dA appears to have lots of new features that I missed. And I'm sure everyone's lives have been as crazy as mine. Well, maybe not that crazy. Shit's been pretty weird.

I've moved around a bit but ultimately I'm still in Orlando... I'm currently living on a friend's futon. I moved back home to Stuart to find a job for a few months and save up money. And then I ended up getting an $11,800 settlement last week from my car crash case (wasn't my fault and the kid tried to blame me so I got an attorney). So... now I can afford to move back, which I have. :aww:

I'm currently hunting for a house to rent between $1100 and $1500. I'm going to get some roommates, save $5000 in a money market account and use the rest on home furnishings, a bed, and some recreational experiences. Oh and of course I'll be paying off my debts first. I owe my mom, my brother, my old roommate, the University of Central Florida, and *wazzdakka money. :paranoid:

Anyway, I've been looking at a few places near UCF (I'll be going back to school in a semester or two) that I'll be viewing this week. Hopefully I'll find something awesome fast because I'm tired of living on a futon in a house with my former roommate. I love Nick to death but his girl problems are astronomical. Fuckin' crazies. :no:

Also bored as shit because my computer is in my car (along with all my earthly belongings) and all I have is a couple books I've already read, a bunch of movies I've already seen or am not thrilled about watching, and a shitload of porn that I can't watch because I lack the privacy to do so. :cry:

Plus Nick's new roomie is a bit of a jackass. He's okay and all but he makes me uncomfortable... tries to be funny but it comes across as crude. Nick manages the same thing but it's just funny... the new roomie can't pull it off. :roll:

Good news is that I can now afford a queen size bed, my own kick ass place, and all the shit I've ever wanted. Okay maybe not everything... nobody knows better than me how fast large sums of money go. But I can at least get a lot of the basic things I've been wanting... I'm 20 now and would really like to stop sleeping in a twin size bed with a pink quilt. And I'm tired of living with my mom or my friends. I was renting from Nick for a year before I moved home for a couple months but even then I wasn't doing so well. :hmm:

Now's my second chance. And miraculously we also have a new president who is actually eloquent, intelligent, practical, and all around awesomeness. So I'm pretty psyched about that. =D

:glomp: Hope everyone is doing well :heart:

(Also, damn it's great to be back in Orlando... with shit to do, phenomenal crippie, fun people, and 24 hour pharmacies.) :boogie:

I wouldn't spend the money till you find a job. Shit's hard in the US, and job finding is hardest of all. I don't care how old you are, you shouldn't be living in your own place (even with roomates) unless you have income.

Hi! Welcome back. Kinda. :slow:

I recently moved back into my mum's place after being evicted at the start of December, which is fine by me. I have given away 50% of my possessions and will sell the other 40% as I prepare to move to Texas for good.

The moving date has been chalked up as roughly mid April - May, hopefully with a job waiting for me, but if not I'll just get hitched.
:iconicameplz:

When I do land, if I don't already have a job, I'll be out of the job market for about 2-3 months while I wait for the green card to come through, but even if I do have a job when I arrive, Misha and I will still only be looking for an apartment for around $700. :slow:

Awesome! Glad to hear everything's going so well.

And as soon as I find a place I'll be looking for a job. I've got great references from the owner and manager of the bakery that I worked at in Stuart. I'll find a job eventually... things like a bed and a house can't wait, though I'll probably hold off on picking out art and stuff like that.

With roommates (which should be easy to get considering I'll be living near a major university) I could theoretically be paying little to nothing in rent, so hopefully finances won't be too tight.

Well, just be careful. Nothing worse than being broke after having that much money. :slow:

I know, I've been there a few times =P Being broke always sucks.

Good to see you're not dead! Whenever I don't see any sign of life from someone I know online for more than 30 days, I just assume they've been hit by a bus, so, yeah.

Not too bad. Hoping I can get my life back in order.

You?
