Complete independence.
April 25th, 2011

Can I just say it’s simply AMAZING discovering that some of my old web design pals are still around ♥. It makes me happy :).

In other news… In my previous post, I told you all that my best friend and I were looking for an apartment to move into it. Guess what? We got the apartment!! We moved in on April 9th, 2011. HELLO complete independence!! I have always had an independent mindset and now I am completely on my own. I pay for the roof over my head, I pay for my food, transportation, etc. It feels GREAT. I am so thankful to God that I was blessed with a job last year, which enabled me to make this move. I just cannot express how happy this makes me! My family has been a great help- my aunts have helped a lot with the purchasing of items. Utilities are included in the rent (whoooooo), but we have to pay for cable. I ordered basic cable last week and let me tell you, it was such a bust!!

Silly, foolish me did not know that basic cable meant “regular” channels with about… hmm… THREE cable channels (I re-ordered to get better service)!!! I was SO upset. Not to mention, the African cable installers were hitting on me. It seems like you can’t be nice to men, they take it the wrong way. What’s INSANE is that one of them was trying to give me free (illegal) cable. He told me to call Comcast and cancel the installation, but he’ll still install it. I told him no thanks. At the end of installation, he left his number on my receipt (how unprofessional) and said he has something for me (a free cable box). I told him I’d think it over (to be nice, I suppose). Did I call that man? NOPE! But this past Sunday, I received a text saying “Happy Easter” from an unknown number. I asked who it was, AND IT WAS THE CABLE GUY. I was SO pissed off because I did NOT give that man my effing number, so it meant that he’d taken it from my Comcast information!!! I sent him a text, saying that was very unprofessional and against protocol and that I did NOT give him my number. Then I’d told him to not contact me ever again… He’s lucky I didn’t report him and get him fired tbh.
