So here is our apartment which is located in Arlington!! It's really nice and spacious, and it also has AC - which I pretty much turned on as soon as I arrived!!! The weather here is not too hot yet but even though it was only 80 today, it was still 86% humidity, so basically if you walk anywhere you have your clothes sticking to you! Not so much fun, but I'm sure I'll get used to it!
Tonight I am alone in the apartment and the other 3 come tomorrow afternoon! It's kind of lonely, but it's also really nice getting here a day early so I can unpack and explore the neighborhood! I went out right when I got here because I was hungry and I also found out that we didn't have any toilet paper which was a bit ridiculous - so I had to find a store to get that, and also find some dinner! It was really hard to find things because we are basically in an area with mostly hotels and apartments but after wandering around for awhile and getting a little bit lost, I finally found a restaurant to get something to eat! I also found Rite Aid, so now I have toilet paper for our apartment and granola bars for the morning! On my walk I also found a post office and the metro which I will be taking to work in the city next week! So I pretty much now know where all the essential places are except for a grocery store, but I'll wait until the other girls get here to find that!
Now I'm off to unpacking and getting some much needed sleep!
