... I don't know...

This morning I've made an appointment to go and look at a flat in the evening...
I felt more excited by each hour that passed, it looked promising.

Shopping (without buying) and reading a book calmed my nerves somewhat.
Yes Kana, I managed to finish 'Scorpia Rising' so I'll give it to you tomorrow.
Aaah, Alex Rider *dreamy look* As the Sunday Times said: "Dark and damned clever."
I'll say no more...

The flat was excellent (for its cost) if one could ignore the constant rumble of traffic. I'm not sure I would've gotten used to hear numerous cars and trucks speeding 50 meters (if not less) from my window if I decided to open it.
You heard it right, if... I did not take the apartment.
There was another young woman along with her father to take a look at the flat at the same time I arrived and she decidedly wanted to rent it. She had arrived first AND was the first to vehemently declare how much she loved to rent it hence I think it was only right she should get it.
I wasn't entirely convinced by the flat, the nearby motorway and the longterm renting period may have had to do with that feeling. I admit, I want to much for too little money and... and... 

And I just don't know at this very moment. 
My parents are causing me stress, neighbours having a constant row at a high volume and never being sure you are or will be alone for a certain amount of time drives me insane.
Yet I don't know whether I want to change that kind of stress for the one where you'll have to save every euro to get the bills payed, if you can manage that, that for a place where you can't have a window open or keep a cat or...
Argh, I really want too much :(

Next time better I suppose...

*hugs* :( I'm really sad for you, that it's so hard to find a place to live!

About the stress... Fom my personal experience, there'll always be stress, and it's just a matter of knowing how to deal with it. I've been having financial troubles quite a bit while I was in Australia and it's about to start over again in NZ after so long without a job, so yeah, that's stressful. On the other hand, having independence and freedom makes it worthwhile, at least for me it does.

You want to find a place where you can keep a cat? :-) Cool!

You know.. If I got back to Belgium, and start working in Antwerp or somewhere in that area, we could maybe look for a place together? It might be like hotesl accommodation; it's cheaper when there's two people? Unlike Kana, I'm primarily interested in renting rather than buying at the moiment.

Anyway; keep looking around, I'm not sure when I'll be back..

*big hug*
