So we got a new apartment.
We moved out of Valley River Court (VRC) to live at McKenna Estates and be close to school. We ended up moving in with Dad because we hated it and it would be cheaper to break the lease and live with Dad relatively free than stay there, plus we could be near dad to help him recover from his upcomming surgery. Still, we've always missed our old neighborhood and regretted leaving. So we were driving around Sunday and had been talking all week about all the nostalgia of the things we liked while living there and had also been discussing asking them if we could move back in September when we were done staying at Dad's. They told us that if we wanted to move in this week, we could sign a year lease for $665/month rather than the standard $850, so we took the deal. Rather than being in our lease through September having graduated in June (next year) and having 3-4 months of uncertain ability to pay rent (Will we get a job right out of college?), we'll be there until June which is when we graduate. It works out better because if we get good jobs we can renew our lease, and if we don't, or get good jobs out of town, we can choose not to renew. The timing is amazing and so is the price. The floor plan and layout of the apartment is identical to our old one, it's just two buildings further down the complex. The view is good, there's plenty of sun on the deck for our plants, and the carpeting is brand new. We're so happy.
Alyssa had her rehersal last night for her composition recital and said the instrumentalists did an amazing job. They barely need more practice and said they loved her piece. I can't wait to hear it.
I've finally finished a song I've been writing on my guitar and I only need to add some lyrics. The other members of my band (Alyssa and Emily) really like it and are eager to try it out. I'm happy with how it's coming along. Maybe I'll upload a small snippet of part of it so others can hear it.
Anyway, that's all for now.
