 Hi everybody. I hope that you're all doing well. So guess what we're doing today? Guess, guess. Today we are finally closing on my apartment. I've been talking about making this video for going on 10 months now. It's been a very long journey with some dead ends, a lot of learning experiences, but it's finally happening today and I'm so excited. It almost like doesn't feel real. I'm gonna finish getting ready while I talk to you, but I am making the first installment, I guess, of this moving series on this channel and I thought I would just bring you along today while I do all the things. Obviously won't bring the camera into the closing because that wouldn't be appropriate, but I will kind of just bring my camera with me today. Before the closing, I'm going to go to the actual apartment and do a walkthrough, make sure everything looks good and you know nothing is broken or nothing changed since the last time I saw the apartment and then about like an hour and a half after that is the actual closing. So it's kind of early-ish in the morning right now. It's gonna be a long day. I actually do still have to go to work later after the closing, but that's okay. I just didn't want to take a day off, so I'm doing a half day instead, but it's gonna be a super exciting day. I think my dad is meeting me at the closing so that I have somebody there with me, which will be super fun and yeah. So I'm almost ready. I have to find something to wear because should I have planned an outfit beforehand? Yeah, did I? No. So we're just gonna wing it. It's really hot outside so that's not helping me, but it's okay. I want to wear something comfy, but you know, nice enough. I don't know. I have no idea. We're just gonna wing it. So I'm ready now. I'm gonna go pick out an outfit and I will see you guys in a little bit. Okay, after much back and forth, this is what we're going with. I think it's okay. I don't know. Good enough. Okay, so I'm all ready. Let me just show you some of the things that I have going on here because I'm gonna be honest with you. The packing hasn't really started yet, but I'm trying. So here, I'll show you this first. So these are three big bags for donation. So it's mostly clothes. I gotta drop all that off. I'm gonna try to put that in my car today just in case I have time later to drop it off. And that's still not everything that I'm gonna donate, but it's a start. And then if you come downstairs, we have a lot going on here. That's not mine, although I would take it if they'd let me, but I have glasses. A lot of this is like kitchen stuff. I don't think that big box is mine, but it might be. And then I have some stuff in here. So this is full of kitchen stuff. That's full of some decorations. And then I'll show you some other things here. So my mom picked this up for me the other day. I told her that when I move, I want to get a little fish for my kitchen. And so she got me this little fish tank. So that's gonna come with me and I'll get a little fishy to go in there and probably keep it in the kitchen. I have some hangers. This is a box of hangers. I need to get more because 30 is not gonna cut it, but they're like skinny little felt hangers, which I really, really like. So I'll have to pick up more probably on Amazon. I've had this Google Home. It was a gift from my job years ago and now I can finally use it. I have a bath mat over here. That's actually a kitchen mat supposed to go in front of your sink or something. It may or may not match though. So TBD on that, but little things going on here in the kitchen. Oh, one more thing to show you. So the couch that we've had, we've had for years and my mom was ready to part with it and she already bought herself a brand new one. So I said I would gladly take the couch. So the couch is already wrapped. It's a pretty big couch and it comes with an ottoman. I'm not sure which one is which, but they are wrapped and ready to go somewhere behind all this madness. I also have a rug that's ready to go. I don't know how many of you live in apartments. I don't know what your house rules are, but me, I have to have my apartment roughly 80% carpeted just out of courtesy for the people living below you. So I have to get a couple more rugs, but I have a big one that's going to take up a lot of space in the main room, which is the living room. So that's good. So yes, little by little, things are going to come together, but it's a bittersweet. I'm excited. I'm definitely going to miss this house for sure. And I'm going to miss this girl right here. Maya blew over here, little old lady. Maya hasn't been doing that great health wise. Poor baby, my little old lady, but she's still hanging there. I'm going to miss her very, very much, but it's okay. I'll see her soon. So yeah, that's it for now. I have to head out in about 10 minutes or so and I'm hungry. So I'm thinking it's a scrambled eggs morning. So I'm going to make some eggs and then I'm going to head in the car and we're going to make our way over to the apartment. Okay, so I just left the apartment. I did a walk through. Everything looks pretty good. It's going to need, you know, a paint job, some cleaning, the standard stuff, but everything looks really good. Only thing is the stove doesn't work or the oven. The stove works. The oven doesn't work. So that was a surprise. So that's something that we're going to have to talk about at the closing. Everything else looks good. So I have like an hour and 15 minutes to kill. So I might make my way over and just kind of hang out in the car just to make sure that I'm not late because I don't really know where I'm going. So, but yeah, first step is done and I'm getting excited and we're very, very close. So stay tuned. Well, that's it. It's done. That's crazy. It doesn't feel real, but for the most part the closing was pretty painless. I was in and out in like an hour and a half, signed a lot of papers, but it was, it was good. It's crazy to think that I just bought a home, my first home, which was cool. My dad came and was there for about half of it, which I really appreciated because I was nervous, but it went really, really well. When I tell you, I signed a lot of papers. Let me just show you what I walked away with. Okay, hold on. Okay. I don't even fully know what all of this is. Most of it's stuff I signed. This whole big thing down here has to do with my actual building. It's just a lot. It's a lot of papers, but I had a little bit of time to spare. So I came to Target. You guys know how it goes and I got a couple of things like basic, basic things in addition to the stuff I already have. I still need a lot more, but I'll show you what I got because why not? Everybody needs a scissor in their life. So got a little kitchen scissor, shower liner. It's one of the first things to go on, right? So you can shower, shower liner, and shower curtain. It's hard to see because it's white, but it has, I don't know if you can see, it has like little diamonds etched into it, like a diamond shape. My bathroom, which you'll see later, is like a gray, grayish marble kind of. So whites, grays, that's kind of where we're going to live for the bathroom theme. I wasn't planning on going to pick these up, but they were three bucks, just little ice trays. They also match the scissor. So I love that for me. And I need to go in and do like a deep clean of the apartment before I move in and stuff. So picked up some windex. I still need other cleaning supplies, but that's a start. And yeah, so while I was at Target, I picked up some Starbucks. These are just like egg white bites. I'm starving. I haven't, it's like three, and it's almost four o'clock now. I ate at like 10 this morning. So I'm getting hungry. So I'm gonna munch on that a little bit. I do have to head to work in a little bit, but I'm kind of just like taking my time, taking it all in. That's probably going to be it for this video though. I knew it was going to be a short one, but I just kind of wanted to document the day. Next up in this series that I'm calling it, I'm going to do an empty apartment tour. I'd like to do a move-in vlog. Once I'm in, I'll share like some decor things that I've gotten and halls and things like that. So there'll be about like four or five episodes, episodes in this series. But yeah, if you want to follow along with me, I'd love to have you so you can just subscribe. And I will of course keep you guys updated on when those videos are coming. I'm very excited. And I hope that you guys are too. Thank you for all of the support as always, and I will see you next time.
