Recently, I got the chance to move into a new apartment, which was an exciting opportunity (as it should be). I was super pumped about it...until I actually started the moving process.
1. You don't realize how much stuff you actually have until you start packing everything, so you literally just want to avoid the process.
2. You don't have enough boxes and storage bins (I actually dumped some of my already packed belongings onto the floor and used the empty storage bins to get even more stuff).
3. You run into the most random items and start reminiscing.
4. The new place doesn't have enough space to fit everything you own, and neither does your car (insert crying emoji here).
5. Your friends offer to help, but if they do, you won't know where anything is. Also, they're not the most careful people.
6. You have to clean the old place, like REALLY clean.
7. You're angry because your room was never as clean as you're leaving it now.
8. Talk about back pain.
9. You have to tell people where your new apartment is because they don't know where you live now.
10. Settling into the new place always feels awkward for the first couple of days because you're so used to the order you had at your old apartment.
Despite the trials and tribulations of moving, there is one positive thing to look forward to: redecorating!
