I only have to do 8 rotations this year. This means I'll be done with school at the end of February. Match Day is March 19th, so after that I don't see any reason to stay in my apartment anymore.
I have lived in my apartment for about 5 years, and I think what has happened here has taught me a lot about myself and what I need.
I need:
1. a roomate who PAYS the rent and doesn't skip out, leaving it to me.... I had to pay off $1200 from my savings account for Becky.
2. a roomate-with-friend-potential to be honest... not send me a long email listing everything I did that pissed her off over our 2 years living together.
3. a bed that doesn't require a ladder and can fit 2 people
4. a closet
I have loved my place otherwise. I live in one of the best neighborhoods in Boston. I can walk to school, work, my mom's office, the post office, the grocery store, the pharmacy, the gym, Newbury St.
But it's time for a change... a big one... in a big way. I sent my father an email tonight. The man likes to ponder issues, so I figured an email gives him time to process my demands. We communicate the best through emails anyway, and to be perfectly honest (if it isn't already obvious) my father and I are big fans of bullet points.
The email:
A few thoughts on the imminent end of medical school.
1. I am done with school at the end of February. Match Day is the third week of March. At the end of March, i don't see any reason to stay in my apartment. Even if I do my prelim year in Boston, I don't want to live in my place anymore.
2. Sister and I have talked about me living with her in california until graduation. I can also take me step 2 clinical skills exam in LA, so I may avoid the extra expense of flying to Atlanta to take it.
3. Since I never want to live in a place without a closet or proper bed ever again, I will need the $25,000 I gave you a few years ago back. You may keep the profit (or suck up the debt). But since I'll be on my own, I'd like to have the extra cushion.
Love, Roxy
My father wrote back that the money has always been available to me. I don't know how, but I'll figure it out soon enough and get it into the account I know and love.
