Apartment Searching in NYC

I will soon be moving from my little orange apartment in Hell's Kitchen. It's bittersweet.
This was my first "home" in NYC, and I've had a lot of great times here.

However, I'm excited to get into a place of my own.... and have walls that aren't BRIGHT orange.

I'm currently waist-deep in the NYC real estate scene.
After running into countless dead-ends via semi-sketchy apartment search websites and  Craigslist, I was counting down to my first nervous breakdown since moving here.

Thankfully, Melissa, my former voice teacher extraordinaire, came to stay with me this weekend. Among our many adventures, she wanted to check out the semi-annual Eileen Fisher sample sale in the Village. I thought, what the heck, it'll be my first sample sale experience. Yay.

I walked out of the store with a beautiful new fall jacket..... and...... A REALTOR!
Yes, Melissa and I made friends with a wonderful lady who works for a large real estate firm.... over a cashmere sweater.

Funny how life works out sometimes.

So, wish me luck. I have showings tomorrow and hope to have something locked up by next week.
After this is all said and done, I'll be back with crazy audition stories and my normally-scheduled blogging :)
