This shit is CRAZY..

Just for the fun of it after I finished studying for finals, I was looking at apartments in State College.
Alot of them have everything included or almost everything. I was looking at the one, Parking, Cable, and Electricity wasn't included.. and it was over $1000 a month. Plus the other bills... I mean if you have a roomate that's fine. I'm glad everything is included in my apartment and my parents pay for it because I couldn't pay for it. And, I have to pay for parking too. That's why why I have twenty thousand loans, and a job and soon two jobs.. And what confuses me is that it's cheaper to have a 12month lease than to have a 9.5 month lease.. that's retarded. I was looking at the Ashwicken Court townhouse type thingers.. I don't know what to call them.. Alot of apartments up here you get furnished.. which is definately the way to go.. at least in my opinion. My apartment is furnished.. now I brought things of my own in so I could have some 'home' in it. The Ashwicken Courts doesn't include electricty which includes - heat, lights, cooking, hot water, and air condtioning.
In my life, I couldn't go without heat.. That's just retarded. Lights, how the hell are you supposed to study at night when you can't sleep becuase your neighbors are having a party and blasting music, cooking.. hmm, how can you live without food? fast food.. eww. I hate fast food. hot water, I like to take showers thank you very much. Cold water doesn't do it. and it doesn't clean you as well. air conditioning.. i like to be cool in the summer.. i don't want to be sweating my tits off. And cable isn't included.. um i think i want to watch some tv... i do have somewhat of a life.. but not a big one.. and i also have a 2.5 year old daughter, her without tv.. nah.
Anyway.. my apartment is $825.00 divided by 2.. who knows what that is.. i don't feel like figuring it out.. somewhere around $412.50? And and i think 325 for parking.. i don't know. but my parents pay for most of it.
anyway. i just felt like getting that out.
it was kind of random.. but who cares.
i hope to get a student teaching job up here somewhere.. so i can keep my apartment..
