Apartment Living: It's nicer than I thought it could be.

(NOTICE: This post will have to be published in two parts due to both the amount of time that's passed and number of events that have occurred since my last post.)

Let's begin:

I reach my 26th birthday in 4 days. It feels a little unreal, but I'm ready for it. Sure I feel like I'm 24, but it's cool because I act like I'm 21. That's a good thing, right?

Summer feels like it's nearly come and gone in the blink of an eye, but it's been a GREAT ONE. Although they seem instantaneous looking back, a lot of great changes have happened.

I moved into Post Brookhaven this past June 12th with Alex Hnizdor and Daniel Czeczil. Our location is legit. We're right on the pool, have 2 nasty sound systems, a fridge dedicated entirely to beer, and many many more amenities...

It's been one hell of a ride since our debut here. We all know that summer, itself, is fun to begin with...

Hnize Quest

There have been a couple mess ups, but only a couple. (See Right)

We've met some fun people who've surprisingly accepted our friendship. Lauren Garrett, Kelsey Fox, Stephanie Mus: where would we be if y'all hadn't dropped in on our lives? These girls (and their friends) know how to KEEP IT REAL. I won't even write it in Spanish: Our House Is Your House.

I've also experienced a few great high school pseudo/semi reunions. (So many of us live down here now.)

I'll definitely be posting some (detailed) comments about my residency in Post Brookhaven as of yet.

THEN there's July 4th and the aftermath... (Coming Soon)

Voegs Not Questing

Self Sufficiency

Twenty days... It's been a while since you wrote something to yourself or anyone else caring to read about you. Let's get it together, Will.

I began moving into Post Brookhaven on June 12th and am still a long way from finishing (for a few reasons). I figure I will slowly, but steadily, be moving/setting up stuff for the next couple of months.

Moving is a big deal, I know. It's time consuming, frustrating, physically and mentally exhausting, interfering, and... NOT costly thanks to the KooKoo Krazy Hut! Dear Sweet KooKoo gave me the green light to squander a delivery truck and van to execute my entire move with. Those vehicles were an unprecedented favor.

Alex, Danny, and I commenced and completed most of our move on the HOT, SUNNY, HUMID (post thunderstorm) afternoon of Tuesday, June 12th. When I say hot and humid... I mean... Yeah... REAL. Overall, it was a great feeling, though.

It's great to be in my own place and in my own room. I finally feel like I have at least a decent amount of control over my life (not withstanding the powers of God, government, laws, and Comcast...). I work from home most days, have an excellent view of one of the pools (a.k.a. chick nest), and free Wi-fi at Starbucks if I need a new scene.

As if timing couldn't be better (considering the extra expenses and stress) my boss/business partner worked out a nice raise for me. I'm slightly more relaxed about buying a car now. Thank God.

So much more has happened that I need to fill myself/y'all in on... It's real juicy stuff, too, which makes it that much worse to have to wait for. Damn...

How do you gauge fortune? With: luck, good will, hard work, light spirits, easy looks, education, drive/motivation/determination (all same thing to me), and/or patience?

What makes you feel like you deserve or don't deserve something? Throw out deserve and switch it up with earned. Throw out both of those terms. They both have negative connotations. What have you BUILT for yourself?
