Another week in

Another week in and everything seems to be fine. Got me a mattress and bedroom set and work is going just fine. I think I'm actually starting to learn things.

I went to the DMV today to get my new license and it was so sad. I was starting to give away part of my New York-ness to come to Virginia which is so much different. And let's not forget learning about yearly sales and use tax which is not cool at all. And there are even more fees on top of all of that. Wow they really want money. I guess that's one of the things I was scared of when I headed down south.

Two weeks in

So I've been here in Richmond for about two weeks now. I got myself a nice 2 bed-2 bath apartment not far from all the main shopping centers and in a nice area. But let me say, it's no New York. It's more humid here and its cheaper. The area I live in is supposed to be the pricey part, but its nothing compared to what rent was at home.

Problem the one thing I don't enjoy is the way people drive around here. No one really moves and have issues turning and merging and I feel like I'm just way more aggressive than normal, even without going over the speed limit.

So I've been trying to get furniture together since I really don't have anything, and the best thing happened. These people who were moving in upstairs needed to get rid of some stuff and saw that I had nothing, so they offered some of their furniture. Now I am the proud owner of computer table and sleeper sofa. Hooray. It was just so nice!

Only a week left

And I will officially start working and I can't wait.

Other than that, I saw this site today:

http://www.go4college.com

It's a site that will tell you the chances of getting into different colleges for a price. It's interesting and shows just how important getting into top colleges is getting. Weird.
