My name is Melanie. I’m a twenty-three year old college graduate living in Philadelphia, PA. I’m shy. I like cute puppies, cool designs, and city lights. My hobbies include playing music (clarinet and piano), songwriting, designing, and social media. I’m pretty indecisive, especially when shopping. More...

movin on up

…or, rather, down?

I can’t believe I literally only have 2 days left in my apartment! There’s some things I’ll miss about it…other things, not so much (mainly the guy next door who likes to blast heavy metal at odd times during the day ). I’ll miss not having my own space. I’m already thinking about how I want to decorate my new apartment when I move out (who knows where and when that will be haha). Hopefully I don’t lose my mind at home. I need to look into saving up for a car so I can hang out with friends more and get out more often. I don’t know what kind of car I want, but definitely something very small. This weekend I’m moving out so I’ve been trying to pack little by little all week. All I have left to box up is the kitchen stuff, my clothes, and whatever is in the bathroom. I have a feeling this weekend is going to involve lots of physical labor.

I have to start taking pubic transit next week to get to work. Ughh. I’ll miss walking, even though it was uncomfortable when it was hot/cold, at least I was able to control the time I got in and not have to depend on someone else lol. I’m going to have to take the train with my mom Mon-Wed because my Septa pass doesn’t start till July and its easier for my mom to just buy train tickets. Unfortunately, she leaves for work really early and I’ll probably be at work wayy earlier than I have to be. I can’t leave later cause the train station is too far away to walk haha. After Wednesday, I’m going to try taking the bus to 69th street and then taking the subway to city hall (which is basically where my office building is). I’ll be able to leave later, so hopefully that will work out. I really hate buses though. From my experience, they’re pretty unreliable. Though maybe suburb buses are better than city buses…I don’t know. haha. Then I’ll just take the train back with my mom since she leaves around the same time I do.

Shawn is coming up to Philly next Thursday! Very excited! I took next Friday off. We’re going to his family’s beach house for the weekend and he’s heading back to Charlotte on Mon, so its not very long but at least I’ll get to see him.

Still having issues with LJ crosspost! (anyone else having problems?) It keeps telling me “invalid password” when I try to post. grrr. Also, still looking for a few more hostees! Email me if you’re interested!

EDIT: Apparently WordTwit (the plugin I use to post new blog post links to Twitter) isn’t working either. What the eff? I feel like this new version of WordPress messed everything up haha

Too tired to think of a good title

Hey guys. First off, Adorability has a new hostee, Sara, so please visit her blog! Shes awesome and she actually used to be my host when I first started my site

So I ordered a new bathing suit last week (its this one in black) because Delia’s was having a free shipping sale. Hopefully it fits well. Its always a risk buying something online without trying it on lol

Did anyone see the new Lady Gaga vid for Alejandro? It isn’t bad, but not really what I was envisioning for the song haha. I always pictured like summer and beaches for that song (or something along the lines of what she did for the “Eh Eh Eh” video). I think I liked her older videos a lot more than her last couple ones. haha. They’re a bit too cinematic for me.

I called Comcast today to cancel my internet for the end of the month. It took longer to wait for an actual person to get on the line and all of 2 minutes to actually cancel it. I’m going to attempt to set up wireless on our network at home, but if its anything like what I had to go through to set it up here (aka an hour on the phone with customer service), then its going to be a major pain in the arse.

I’m having an issue with LJ crosspost. It used to work, then it didn’t, then it did again, and now I’m getting a “101: Invalid Passoword” error. Guess I’m going to have to manually crosspost? ugh.

Don’t have much else to say. Really tired.
