Heh?
Oh, I gots to write somethin on me blog. Uh…..
I looked at an apartment yesterday. I had 2 bedrooms but not very many windows. It was a bit lame. But cheap. Cheap is good. I suspect, however, that getting any apartment, even a cheap one, will only result in my having to move out when the rent goes up six months later. You hear it said that Perth has a booming economy, and people are supposed to be getting wealthier, but I don’t think that applies to grad students. I seem to be getting poorer. At least relatively speaking.
Gabrielle Everall had to move out of her apartment because the rent went up. I mean, she hated the place. It wasn’t a good writer’s space and it affected her poetry. But where’s she going to go now?

You could always sign for a longer lease, or move into a shared accomodation type thing.

Longer lease? Doubt they’ll be interested with rents rising so quickly. I am thinking about sharing, but it’s a last resort. Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay last.

Don’t share! Unless it’s with Mish or myself, then sharehousing is the (bad)balls. Mish cooks awesome food and I constantly sing power ballads at max volume. We pretty much rule at sharehousing.
