yeah, NYC is expensive. EVERYTHING costs more - going to the grocery store, one can pay about double what one pays outside of the city.... ....and there, for instance, i paid half of $1650 to share a studio loft (not very exciting) and get to sleep on the floor, because the loft part was used as a bedroom for my roommate. Here, i pay half of $895 to split a 3-bedroom house, in which i not only get my own bedroom (and a bed! woo!) but my own bathroom, as well. I'm thinking about law school up in the DC area, because i think i might like to go into international law of some sort, and that metro area seems to be the right place to go. i've had my bachelors since 1999 and did the scientist thing for a few years; now that i'm in florida i'm just working at a job downtown to pay bills. it gives me free time to focus on...um...my future. yeah. i need to go back to school, lest i lose my mind.
