So, my sister and I have been talking about moving out to the Concord, Pleasant Hill area so that we could go to DVC together. We searched for jobs and apartments and everything out there. My sister finally presented the idea to our dad that we both want to move and go to college out there. He suggested that she and I move into the San Pablo house. The San Pablo house was our grandmother's and when she died she gave it our dad.
My dad is very logical and thinks that it would be better that we live here because rent would be a lot cheaper than living out in Concord and it would be an actual house and way bigger than an apartment. Though secretly I think its my dad's way of getting this house looking nice. Currently it's sorta sad looking.
Along with my dad's logical thinking, he suggest that my sister and I both go to Contra Costa College which is a 5 minute drive from our house. We'd save like 80 minutes and $7 each time we went to school. So my sister is set on going to CCC but I'm not to sure that I want to go to that school. I sorta had my mind set on DVC and their music program which is more extensive than the program at CCC. My sister really wants me to go to CCC with her. I'm undecided. I think im going to go to DVC and just take the extra time and effort to get out there for school. Their program seems to suit what im looking for in a music program. We'll see......
On the other hand, my sister and I are both really excited about living in San Pablo. We have tons of ideas about how to fix up the house and to make it our own. We went back and forth to Barnes and Nobles looking at interior design books and walked around Target a lot, looking at furniture and appliances. We discussed painting options and even knocking down a wall and adding stuff here and there. Hopefully we can get this done before school starts.
More to come later......
