THIS IS A JUBILANT SHOUTING THREAD! I CAN HAS NEW APARTMENT!→[More:]

THE BOOKS HAVEN'T BEEN PUT INTO IT YET AND THERE'S DEBRIS ALL OVER THE PLACE AND I KNOW THAT I WILL HAVE TO BUY PLASTIC BINS FROM THE CONTAINER STORE SO THAT I CAN PROPERLY USE THE SHELVES AT THE BACK OF MY WALK-IN CLOSET, BUT I CAN AT LEAST HAVE ENOUGH CLOTHES TO WEAR TO WORK AND I BOUGHT NEW CORELLE DINNERWARE AND OMG! THIS IS THE FIRST TIME I HAVE NEW FLATWARE AND NEW DISHES AND A FREAKING SPICE RACK AND I GOT THE COOLEST BLUE GOBLETS AND I HAVE GUINNESS-THEMED PUB/PINT GLASSES NOW AND A SOFA BED (DID I MENTION I HAVE A SOFA BED NOW?) FOR FRIENDS TO CRASH ON WHEN THEY VISIT AND I HAVE THE BEST FRIENDS EVER WHO HELPED ME MOVE IN, UP THREE FLIGHTS OF STAIRS INCLUDING THE STOOP AND EVEN THOUGH IT COST A LOT OF MONEY FOR ME TO GET THE STORAGE UNIT AND THE TRUCKS/VANS AND TO HIRE A THIRD GUY TO GET STUFF UP THE FRONT STOOP, IT WAS ALL WORTH IT BECAUSE I LIVE IN MY VERY OWN APARTMENT IN NEW YORK CITY ALL BY MYSELF!

Actually, there's a guy on the same floor as me, but he seems nice and the landlady does live on the ground floor, so I'm not totally alone. Please do not stalk me.

I AM IN NEW YORK CITY!

I SAW JONMC AND PIPS ON SATURDAY EVENING! WE HAD GREEK FOOD! JON IS NOT AS STINKY AS HE HAD LED ME TO BELIEVE.

YESTERDAY THE PINK SUPERHERO AND I WENT TO THE SALLY BEAUTY SUPPLY. TPS HAD A BIT OF A WILLIAM HEIRENS MOMENT AND I HAD TO STOP HER BEFORE SHE BOUGHT TOO MUCH.

I MET TWINKIE! TWINKIE HATED ME AT FIRST BUT THEN LET ME PET HER, BUT I HAD TO BRIBE HER WITH POPCORN AND BITS OF CUPCAKE FIRST.

AND TONIGHT I'M HAVING DINNER WITH TRISHALYNN AND HEARING ALL ABOUT HER NEW APARTMENT.

OH, AND MY TEAM WON YESTERDAY. I WATCHED THE GAME IN AN IRISH DIVE BAR IN QUEENS, WHERE THEY WERE ALL SMOKING AND MONEY WAS CHANGING HANDS IN ILLICIT WAGERS.

THEY WERE MOSTLY CHELSEA FANS, THERE WAS JUST ME AND ONE OTHER MANCHESTER UNITED FAN. ONCE THEY REALISED I KNEW ABOUT FOOTBALL, THEY TREATED ME AS ONE OF THE LADS. THEY APOLOGISED TO ME IN ADVANCE FOR ALL THE CHEERING THEY'D DO WHEN CHELSEA WON, BUT WHEN OUR THIRD GOAL WAS SCORED, I WAS UP ON MY BAR STOOL YELLING "IN YOUR FACE! IN YOUR FACE!"

IT WAS AN AWESOME WIN AND STRATEGICALLY VERY IMPORTANT.

WHAT I FOUND HILARIOUS/IRONIC IS THAT THE CO-COMMENTATOR ON AMERICAN TV IS THAT MASTER TACTICIAN AND MANAGERIAL SUCCESS IAIN DOWIE. YEAH, I'M DEFINITELY GOING TO TAKE NOTICE OF HIM CRITICISING MY TEAM'S TACTICS. (YOU REALLY HAVE TO BE AN ENGLISH FOOTBALL FAN TO UNDERSTAND THIS COMMENT.)

I DIDN'T BUY TOO MUCH; I BOUGHT JUST ENOUGH! YAAAAAAAAAAY! NOW I HAVE ALL SORTS OF FABULOUS BEAUTY TOYS, INCLUDING A "DRY BRUSH" SO I CAN "DRY BRUSH" AND GET ALL MY "TOXINS" OUT. I LOVE "TOXINS".

YAY! I'VE NEEDED TO VENT MY HAPPY, BUT I'M SO AFRAID I'LL JUST ANNOY SOMEONE!

I JUST GOT A PORTION OF MY TUITION FOR THIS TERM COVERED BY MY COMPANY BECAUSE IT PERTAINS TO MY JOB! ALSO, I'M ALMOST FINISHED WITH MY DESIGN AN ART TIE ENTRY AND HAVE THE MATERIALS TO START STITCHING AFTER MY FIRST CLASS TONIGHT. ALSO, ABOUT HALF MY FELLOW STUDENTS ARE AS NON-TRADITIONAL AS I AM!

PIE ENTERED THE LAST OF OUR PAPER FORM SURVEYS AND WE ARE PAST BREAK EVEN ON OUR EVENT IF WE CAN CONVINCE THE MAYBES TO BECOME YESES.

I COMPLETELY PAID OFF ALL OF MY CREDIT CARDS AND CAN NOW SAVE MY NON-BILL CASH TOWARD SCHOOL LOANS, HOUSE, WEDDING!
