home sweet home

So a big part of senior year is planning for the years to come. Most of this planning WPI can and will help you with. Things like job searches, interviews, plans for paying off loans, etc. However, one of the biggest plans one needs to make is finding a home, and this is something you are on your own for...

So today, with the help of my parents, I went for round 1 of apartment searching. I saw 5 or 6 apartment complexes and now I have some serious questions to answer:

Do I want a roomate? or to live alone? Do I want big windows? spacious rooms? high ceilings? closet space? Do I want to be able to walk to work? or ride the bus each day? Do I want pets? a cat? a dog? Do I want a fitness center? a pool? Do I want to spend more or save more?
