Finding an apartment in the NY City area has not been the best journey but it is always worth it when you find something you love. I absolutely love my new apartment and as I made the transition from the bad and scary apartment, I knew I had to have some divine intervention on finding my new home.
I remember a story that someone once told me about her house-hunting journey. They said, “I knew it was the right one!”I said, "How did you know?" they said that they had seen a sign. Therefore, as they went on to explain the sign... it was simply a wind-chime that had brought them joy as they heard its lovely sound. For me... it was less romantic and lovely.
Kitchen
For those who know me... know that I LOOOOOVE ice! I know the right shape, density, etc that makes a great ice cube. So, when I went into this place it was hot and I was tired. So I said, "God... if this is the right place for me, please let there be ice cubes in this freezer. If there are ice cubes in here 'good ice cubes' then I will know that, this is the place for me. I opened the freezer and there was my favorite ice cube shape in the freezer. I moved in that night!
Livingroom
When I left Florida, I told myself that I had to live in the apartment I landed in for 5 years. That meant no looking left or right... wondering what I was missing in another place. That I was going to make the best out of the place I had chosen. Now I expected that the rent was going to be less and the space going to be smaller but as you will view the price and area is all worth it.
Today I Am... Sitting in my new apartment and just smiling and enjoying my cup of ice in my 2 bedroom Jersey Heights Apartment!
