I was denied the apartment because of my bad credit which is scary because I do not want to pay my landlady $925!  However, I do have some options which I just located off of craigslist.org.  Walking to the hotdog stand cleared my mind because I almost cried from rejection even though resident manager urged me to not be discouraged!
The other apartments has a one-bedroom for $795 located in Suitland, Maryland.  Also I have located a nearby apartments to review them also.  If I am approved for the first apartment then I will move there Thursday.  Go get my stuff and roll because it costs $130 less than paying her.  However, I will conduct due diligence by inquiring about how residing out of Washington, DC would affect my paycheck.
Okay.  I did not know that how loud I was talking because a colleague came across the hall to show me how to locate the house on Google Maps.  It felt a little like the Careerbuilder.com commercial where the lady says “even my boss asked me how my job search went” but applied to apartment hunting.  Dang!  However, I did receive some great advance and wonderful information for next time. 
My last financial literacy meeting is today and though the news is disparaging at least it is a lesson that I will take with me.
