Get Used to Rejection

It was raining the other day. Not a big deal because luckily it wasn't cold and not very windy. But for someone who is only five foot two, it can be a little difficult. Walking through the city holding my umbrella, I literally have to dodge everyone else with their umbrella because my umbrella is up to everyone's face.I am about to poke someone's eye out if I don't be careful. I took this picture from my Instagram to try and show what it looks like from my view.

Rainy day!

Anyways, I am still looking for a place to call home. I found another website that has listings.

• sublet.com 

 and was told just now about these

• naked apartments
• Villow
• Zillow

I decided to pay for the upgrade on Sublet.com and I have received positive feedback and responses since deciding to pay for the service. Paying probably does pay off in the long run especially because I am on a time crunch. I found one that I really liked even though the roommate was hard to understand because she was Japanese. I don't mind living with other cultures; I actually enjoy it. But I found out that she chose someone else. I was frustrated because I don't think I can take it anymore!! Well that isn't true but I am so tired of looking!! Ahh the rejection! Go numb? No. Get overly upset? No. But I'm getting desperate here! I almost agreed to an apartment with a dog and they weren't allowing anyone to use the kitchen! But then I came to my senses and realized I need to be able to cook and also not live with animals, including the neighborhood mouse (which was actually mentioned in one listing). I just have to let go and get used to the fact that it isn't going to be easy and it isn't supposed to be!!

Thank goodness to one of my dad's best friends. He lives in Midtown Manhattan and remembered one of his friends who is in real estate. Hopefully they can help me find a place soon!!!! I will not (cannot) give up!
