I know it probably sounds difficult having 5 roommates, but a large city can be so isolating. It sounds nice to come home to people you know have got your back :)
I dont know about that.....I have to deal with my coworkers 8 hours in the day. Coming home I just want to relax and take it slow on my pace, I dont want to be forced talking to someone about my day or putting a front on.
@@jonguyen100 also, they have their own rooms. they dont have to sit in each other's faces all day. ive gone days without interacting with my roomates. its not that bad.
Literally sounds like one of those House hunters memes "I'm an actress, shoe model, and occasional ballerina and I pay 1200 for rent in Brooklyn" lol impressive
5 roommates is LITERALLY the dumbest shit I've ever had. My 3200 Sq foot house has 5 bedrooms / 4 bathrooms. I have 0 roommates, no kids, no wife nagging. ALL MINE~
Jen Tuesday not mold or mildew, it’s part of the two toned pottery glaze 🤗 However, poop particles can go airborne during a flush and that can create a landing pad out of toothbrushes 😬
April Martinez yeah, she's lucky. When I lived with 4 other people, most were guys who never cleaned and the landlord was so lazy to fix the plumbing problems, we all left by 11 months later. One of the most important things when moving into a place with other people is how well you'll get along and respect them.
My range of emotions: *reads title of video* - holy shit what does she do?! *hears 5 roommates* - holy shit what is she thinking?! *finishes video* holy shit I wish I had 5 roommates!
Im too obsessed with cleanliness and hygiene and sometimes too irritating about it. If I had to live with someone with low hygiene and cleanliness standards id just die of regret and shock. Lol. U need so much patience and tolerance to share your space with ppl. Kudos to these all. Lolzz
Well, life in nyc has you out and about more often than not. You gotta hustle there and I’m guessing between the group there are at least fifteen jobs:-/
This felt like it was more about the roommates than it was about the apartment. Like she could have spent more time talking about the space rather than those outdated friends references.
The space seemed to be about 80% bedrooms. It'd be kind of awkward for her to be walking into everyones room, talking about their design choices and whatnot. I feel like they did the best they could without.
Sam moore Right?! My mom’s brother, uncle and cousins are in a rent controlled apartment in Williamsburg and were always the only black people in the building because her uncle was the old super. Now Williamsburg is so different and it feels so hipster whenever I visit. Ugh.
Debbie Potter it sucks and it used to be very neighborhood, a little secret gem, no one wanted to go to Brooklyn, I’m watching the same thing happen to Astoria right now 😩
How can this series just continue to get better with each episode??!!! I know I say this all the time but seriously this is my all time favorite episode!!! The family atmosphere in this beautiful house is so awesome! I love it!!!
aww this was super sweet! didn't really get to see much of the decor (i guess because she lives with like 5 other people) but she seems really nice and her living situation is so unique!
thats not how a toilet sink works. the water that comes out of the sink is the same water you're getting from the main water supply line as everywhere else in the home. You're not getting water that comes out of the toilet tank, how do you think the tank gets filled?
@@lsamoa nope I watched it all and honestly bruh I watched this 2 years ago and I'm not about to watch it again 🤣 so .... whatever you trying to get at I don't even care ✌🏽😊
Blah blah blah if you’re in the NYC area Manhattan,Bronx,Harlem,Queens,Brooklyn are all high paying rent,so this is what you’re going paying like it or not sheesh...Stop Debbie downing a persons choice..I’m sure she knows that her rent is a mortgage etc...But people wants to live in the city/if they can afford 🤷🏿♂️🤷🏿♂️🤷🏿♂️
Location location location. She gets to live and feel like she’s expensive on a much smaller budget. For her lifestyle and life season, it makes sense. If she were married with children, her viewpoint might change, but I think she considers the location, the company, and the financial freedom it gives her worth it. 💕
A studio in NYC for $1300? You could still find one in Far Rockaway, Brighton Beach, East New York, Brownsville, ... in other words a long way from Manhattan or an area you wouldn’t want to live/die in.
She better stick with the yoga job. There a million just like her in nyc. No way she will be a big actress. Nice to dream though. But I guess it’s fun to say, I live in nyc and I am an actress. Lol. Sure you are. Good luck though
Debbie Potter right?!? I lived there, PAST TENSE, I wasn’t there to be an actress but my cousin could be this very girl and after graduating top of her class at a prestigious performing arts college she moved there and after nearly a decade she finally found permanent employment as an usher at new world stages...who puts in broadway shows 😬 Oh, the irony, her partner who wanted to work for Cirque in Vegas and not touch NYC with a ten foot pole is a sound designer, he had ZERO difficulty finding a well paying consistent job. She was full of resentment but ultimately needed his job to keep her ridiculous dream going. I don’t know at what point give up their dreams? Child birth may do it, who wants a mom as a roommate or to be a mom with a crowd of people?? Let’s say FORTY. I’m forty and unless I married one of the shit for brains bankers I dated no way would I go back to being broke there. Nope!! Give me the yard and garage and starry skies. I will day I miss the food delivery and endless people watching, I miss the opera and vibrancy, but I’m all old and pregnant and the thought of schlepping babies around is TERRIFYING, let alone the cost of child rearing in a city that forces you to be a type A competitive nervous wreck! My family bailed long ago and we are happy in the Midwest, seems like we watch someone take off to live their dream every season and we don’t bet on failure or wish anyone ill will, I can just say that most of them return with five years.
kate carew It would stress me out having to piece my money together to pay rent every month 😬 auditioning, waiting on a shoe model call, is she getting paid for being a Ballerina and what if no one who’s up for yoga class does she still get paid? But I guess it really doesn’t matter as long as she can pay her rent.
if she made her own TH-cam channel like, vlogging her daily life andsharing fashion tips/outfits and showed us her favorite beauty and health products I would definitely watch it. If you see this comment girl go for it, extra income on the side :)
Everyone's hating on the toilet sink, but I think it's a sensible thing to do in a small space! If I was building my own tiny home, I would go for one of those!
axeking3440 that’s still an ok price though. I know people that sublet a room in DC for 1,000 that’s so much smaller than that. It barely fits a bed. It’s crazy
I know this is a late comment, and I don't know if anyone else mentioned this already...check the bottom of your dishwasher for leveling legs. You might be able to tighten the screws and shorten the height of the dishwasher so it fits better.
I was born and raised in this neighborhood but like many, had to leave because of the unreasonable rent. There are no more families around. Landlords only rent to roomates. Its a shame because we fixed the neighborhood then were 'kicked out'. I saw a post where a man said his neighbor shoots his gun in the air a couple times a month to keep the rent and taxes down lol. You gotta do what you gotta do lol
It’s to bad they have driven the rents up the way they have. I thought it was going to be gorgous. Far from it. And such a small common area for so many. And a crappy dishwasher to boot, seriously.
I had a mean ex tell me "life cant be like a sitcom", yet here she is living her best life in her own version of Friends. These Sweet Digs are so inspiring, I can't wait to be this successful and happy!
MM, What makes you think she is living her best life? Who in their right mind first of all would want's to live in NYC and pay outrageous rents. Only idiots. She is living with 5 other people because she probably can't afford it on her own. With all the jobs she is supposedly doing, why can't she afford a place of her own. Wake up and smell the coffee my dear. If you think this life style is a sign of being successful and happy you are starting off on the wrong foot.
@@roberta.lofgrenjr.9182 Gee, who took a piss in your cereal this morning? People individually have different perspectives on what constitutes a good life to them, this may not be befitting to you and the lifestyle you crave, but it doesn't take away from the obvious satisfaction of the life shes choosing to live.
She mentioned she found this space through a Facebook group, do you know what group? Hoping to move to Williamsburg as well, and a FB group sounds like a great resource!
Wow. I lived in Williamsburg at the beginning of 2000, before they built all those full-service condos. You wouldn't have seen many people like her around. LOL.
@@ascott2168 And that's fine! Everyone's different and I'm glad if it works for her. Like you I prefer to keep to myself. As the rent prices continue to increase this will become the new normal, but I dont want this lifestyle to be forced on to people who would prefer living by themselves you know?
$1300/month... My mortgage for a 1000 square foot home 4 blocks from the Pacific Ocean, in Imperial Beach Ca. 7000 square foot yard, minutes from San Diego. Even in pricey SoCal my prop taxes were a fraction of what my baby sister pays on Long Island. And the weather is Heavenly!
So how does it work when one or more roommates leave, and there's no immediate replacement? Are you all on the hook for paying their share of the rent as well?
I assume they would have the people who left find someone to replace. And because this is nyc and space is always limited there will always be someone trying to rent a room.
If your in you're 20s yes this actually sounds fun and exciting . Anyone over 30 it might be too many compromises. (Although in NYC its completely normal to have roommates at that age anyway)
I live with 2 friends in a 3 bedroom condo in San Diego, California. I have the master bedroom with an on suite and they have their own rooms with a shared bathroom. We also have 2 parking spots, a garage, in house washer and dryer and a front and back patio! We pay $2400! I couldn’t imagine living with 5 other people and paying that much, but hey it works for them🤷🏻♂️😅
It saves water if you are using it to wash your hands after a flush. It is supposed to be in a water closet or half bath. It actually wastes water if you use it otherwise such as brushing your teeth or other common uses.
My thoughts exactly. And a crappy dishwasher. These people letting landlords take them for a ride like that. If they left it empty it would drive the price down to where it should be
Maybe its just the fact that I'm from Texas so I'm used to everyone owning a house and rent for really nice apartments only being a maximum of $1,800 for 2-3 bedrooms, but WOW, this series really opens my eyes to how people in other states live. It's really interesting. Like here you can get a really nice 3-4 bedroom 3+ bathroom house for $300,000, and the mortgage is just a little under $2,000 a month, the house is located in a well-off neighborhood and you're set. A $639,000 4 bed, 4 bath, 3,033 sqft house here only has a monthly mortgage of $3,292.
The people in these videos are insufferable. “Im an actress, shoe model, ballerina, and I work at a yoga studio” “and my apartment is furnished by Urban Outtifters” *GAG*
Goodness... 7500 for THAT?! I don’t care what the area is like. There is PLENTY of beautiful, great neighborhoods with amazing schools and a wide variety of restaurants, malls, etc for $3,000 a month that would get you a House 3 times the size of this apartment.
Toilet sink! I was in CT’s women’s prison, YCI, last year and we had a counter from wall to wall, a sink on that counter, a toilet separate from the sink but next to and more shelves above the toilet. I thought I had it bad but you live in a $7500 apartment and have a toilet sink. I feel much better about the bid I did.

@@jonguyen100 also, they have their own rooms. they dont have to sit in each other's faces all day. ive gone days without interacting with my roomates. its not that bad.
For $7500 a month I'm sure as hell not having a broken dishwasher and a toilet sink. TOILET SINK
That's the price to live in NYC. (Unfortunately)
How can u even wash ur face in that?
That’s what I was thinking!
Just think, you can pee in the sink
That's how most toilets are in some Asian countries, like Japan and South Korea.
Literally sounds like one of those House hunters memes "I'm an actress, shoe model, and occasional ballerina and I pay 1200 for rent in Brooklyn" lol impressive
rainepanda I was thinking that! Lol
I was going to comment the exact same thing, thank you 😂😂
rainepanda "I sharpen pencils for a living, my budget is a $1,500,000."

loooool right on point
An introverts nightmare living with 5 other people!
Ci Silver Completely agree. I would honestly probably kill myself.
Agreed
Ci Silver yeh Idc how much money I’m saving nothing can make me live with 5 roommates
Yesssssssss!!! 🤣🤣🤣 I've worked 2 jobs (while in school full-time) to keep from having roommates.
Im an introvert and I live with people and its actually the best because you don't get lonely but don't have to leave your house to meet people
5 roommates?? Hell no
Tima T Got that right!!!😂😂😂
Hhahahhaha same
I live with 11
I once had 5 roommates. It wasn’t as bad as I thought it would be. I like having my own space though and chilling in my underwear
5 roommates is LITERALLY the dumbest shit I've ever had. My 3200 Sq foot house has 5 bedrooms / 4 bathrooms. I have 0 roommates, no kids, no wife nagging. ALL MINE~
I know that toilet-sink hybrids aren't uncommon, but am I the only one grossed out about the proximity of the toothbrushes next to the toilet seat?
Jessica Exactly!!! Get them off of there!! 😩😩😩
That grossed me out honestly. 🤮
I’m more grossed out at what looks like mold or mildew at the bottom of that toothbrush holder.
I first saw that type of toilet in Japan, you wash your hands with the water and it then goes to the toilet tank.
Jen Tuesday not mold or mildew, it’s part of the two toned pottery glaze 🤗
However, poop particles can go airborne during a flush and that can create a landing pad out of toothbrushes 😬
I feel like I didn't get a full view of what the house looked like this time.
Ojaswi Sharma there were probably people there. Most of the time the episodes has the person living alone or a couple so we can see the entire place
its harder to show a spiral duplex which i am assuming what that one is since its common for williamsburg
maybe other roommates wanted things private....too many people in that home
That's cool how they all get along so well & enjoy each others company!
April Martinez yeah, she's lucky. When I lived with 4 other people, most were guys who never cleaned and the landlord was so lazy to fix the plumbing problems, we all left by 11 months later. One of the most important things when moving into a place with other people is how well you'll get along and respect them.
April Martinez who doesn't like a person with a non essential shoe collection, when someone has no money to eat?
+aprilmartinez It's so cute!!
right? I dont even like 5 people
1200 and I have to use a TOILET SINK? No, absolutely not. The 5th bedroom was cute !!
C H its not like youre washing your hands in an actual toilet. And it saves on the water bill
Personally, I wasn't as bothered by the sink as I was the fact that she's paying $1,200 to live with five - FIVE - random people.
Being such a devoted introvert, I really do have a lot of respect for people who can thrive in this type of living situation.
My range of emotions:
*reads title of video* - holy shit what does she do?!
*hears 5 roommates* - holy shit what is she thinking?!
*finishes video* holy shit I wish I had 5 roommates!
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Dude, I want 5 roommates now lol
I freaking love this series
Those toothbrushes are far too close to the toilet's splash zone!
😂🤣🤣🤣🤣 really gross to think about!
These apartments are all cluttered and yep, toothbrushes or makeup kits next to toilet. Who does that??
Im too obsessed with cleanliness and hygiene and sometimes too irritating about it. If I had to live with someone with low hygiene and cleanliness standards id just die of regret and shock. Lol. U need so much patience and tolerance to share your space with ppl. Kudos to these all. Lolzz
Fatma Atma So true! I'm such an introvert that just the thought of coming home to five roommates exhausts me. Lol.
Well, life in nyc has you out and about more often than not. You gotta hustle there and I’m guessing between the group there are at least fifteen jobs:-/
Lmbooo same. I can’t do the roommate situation.
You and I both.
5 roommates... I'd like to see videos where the title is actually what the person is paying. Like she is living in a $7500 apartment by herself.
Misha Janette I have to say I was kind of annoyed when I first saw this thinking this young girl had a $7500 apartment. 😂
Not how I expected this to be!! Gorgeous and surprisingly functional/ spacious
I live in westchester for 1050 a month (1 bedroom). 5 minutes from the metro north. Can get to 42th street in 20 minutes.
This felt like it was more about the roommates than it was about the apartment. Like she could have spent more time talking about the space rather than those outdated friends references.
The space seemed to be about 80% bedrooms. It'd be kind of awkward for her to be walking into everyones room, talking about their design choices and whatnot. I feel like they did the best they could without.
IKR. Just tell us who smashed.
I remember when Williamsburg had 2 parts. The hood and the Jewish part and highest rent you paid was like 600$ for a 2 bedroom
Sam moore Right?! My mom’s brother, uncle and cousins are in a rent controlled apartment in Williamsburg and were always the only black people in the building because her uncle was the old super. Now Williamsburg is so different and it feels so hipster whenever I visit. Ugh.
I grew up in Williamsburg
The Jewish part
It’s a travesty now.
They have driven the rents sky high. It’s to bad
Debbie Potter it sucks and it used to be very neighborhood, a little secret gem, no one wanted to go to Brooklyn, I’m watching the same thing happen to Astoria right now 😩
I had 3 roommates and honestly that was enough for all my life

That’s so awesome I am happy for them. They vibe well together and keep a clean house! God bless them and their successful NYC careers ♥️
As a dancer, when she said shoe model then occasion dancer I thought, how does a dancer have good looking feet??
Exactly
And how can one be an "occasional" ballerina? Ballet requires commitment. You can't just be on-and-off about it if you're doing it professionally.
@@lsamoa dance differentiates to ballet. There are many jobs within the dance industry, which aren’t as intensive as the title “ballerina”
@@theorca3451 I know that, but that's what she called herself, an "occasional ballerina", which makes no sense.
@@lsamoa she probably doesn’t realise that ballerina means principle dancer. I think she used it as an umbrella term for maybe commercial dancing?
Well, this is definitely one of my favorite episodes ..
Cool House and amazing roommates .. love it ..
I'm not paying that much for no damn toilet water to brush my teeth with ect Just no . the landlord is lazy and very unprofessional like who does that
thats not how a toilet sink works. the water that comes out of the sink is the same water you're getting from the main water supply line as everywhere else in the home. You're not getting water that comes out of the toilet tank, how do you think the tank gets filled?

Did you miss the part just before where she showed the bathroom?
@@lsamoa nope I watched it all and honestly bruh I watched this 2 years ago and I'm not about to watch it again 🤣 so .... whatever you trying to get at I don't even care ✌🏽😊
Goal is to move to NY. I love LA but NY just has the amazing vibe. Has anyone else moved from LA to NY and have any tips/advice they can give?
Get ready to be broke
Thank you to the roommates for allowing us to see your rooms 👊🏾😃 This was great.
+patriciasonia Thanks for watching!!
WOW! You got really lucky, not only with that beautiful place but liking the five people you share with x
I cannot tell a lie. I was distracted from the apartment because this felt like watching gentrification 101.
jllsdoe Best comment ever!!
When she said 5 roommates I was like “awful” then I realized I grew up with 5 siblings and checked myself. I
ummm what apartment complex is this? i might have to move here
Luxury Condo in the downtown area.
That’s the southern part of Williamsburg
I’m disappointed that she allows her self to pay almost 1,500 to live with other people when she could just have her own apartment for that amount
Cielo Quirico it’s Williamsburg
Yea it’s Williamsburg but it’s other spots in nyc that she could of got for her own space. She basically paying for the location
Cielo Quirico
Which is stupidity
She could be putting that towards a home of her own ...
Blah blah blah if you’re in the NYC area Manhattan,Bronx,Harlem,Queens,Brooklyn are all high paying rent,so this is what you’re going paying like it or not sheesh...Stop Debbie downing a persons choice..I’m sure she knows that her rent is a mortgage etc...But people wants to live in the city/if they can afford 🤷🏿♂️🤷🏿♂️🤷🏿♂️
Location location location. She gets to live and feel like she’s expensive on a much smaller budget. For her lifestyle and life season, it makes sense. If she were married with children, her viewpoint might change, but I think she considers the location, the company, and the financial freedom it gives her worth it. 💕
damn this is a good apartment
I would love a roommate that cleans. Mine expects me to be his mother, and clean up for him. She’s blessed
Yeah Im not going to live with 5 random people when I can get a decent studio for $1300.
Where? Unless you live in a rent stabilized apartment or NYCHA?
My thoughts exactly! For that amount, she could get something by herself, and not have to worry about a large group of strangers.
Not in the are she wants to be. And some people don’t like living alone
A studio in NYC for $1300? You could still find one in Far Rockaway, Brighton Beach, East New York, Brownsville, ... in other words a long way from Manhattan or an area you wouldn’t want to live/die in.
sabbottart Not true I live in Forest Hills literally 30 mins away from the city and I pay $1500 for my 1 bedroom!
The friends references are so cringey.

Oh, the irony, her partner who wanted to work for Cirque in Vegas and not touch NYC with a ten foot pole is a sound designer, he had ZERO difficulty finding a well paying consistent job.
She was full of resentment but ultimately needed his job to keep her ridiculous dream going.
I don’t know at what point give up their dreams?
Child birth may do it, who wants a mom as a roommate or to be a mom with a crowd of people??

$1300/month... My mortgage for a 1000 square foot home 4 blocks from the Pacific Ocean, in Imperial Beach Ca. 7000 square foot yard, minutes from San Diego. Even in pricey SoCal my prop taxes were a fraction of what my baby sister pays on Long Island.
And the weather is Heavenly!
the toilet sink is actually cool as hell
Cute, it looks like she’s having fun in her life ❤️
Ok wtf this is such s good space esp. considering her personal rent was only $1225 + utilities
My 3200 Sq Foot house has a mortgage payment lower than that.
Lalala123 there are apartment where she can have her own space for the same price
Cielo Quirico that’s what I’m saying lol
Yes It's Me For New York though this is a really good space/really good rent. Obviously in most places asides from New York, this is a lot.
But you probably live in a suburb and she lives in one of the most famous cities in the world...there is no comparison
How does everyone fit their food in the fridge and cub boards?
she can literally find herself a studio for like 700 dollars more. she'll have more space and her own privacy. like $1.3k just for a room? sis..
I loved it! I love your videos! please more of new york and maybe Europa, Spain! please
I need to know where this is. I’ll pay $1,225 utilities included for that...in Williamsburg!!! Holy moly.
So how does it work when one or more roommates leave, and there's no immediate replacement? Are you all on the hook for paying their share of the rent as well?
I assume they would have the people who left find someone to replace. And because this is nyc and space is always limited there will always be someone trying to rent a room.
I don’t think it would stay empty for long
My favourite series! Please do an international version :)
+gtmj Stay tuned!
Yes great idea
awesome idea!
I'm so in love with the windows in the bedroom upstairs.
People lost their mind when choosing to live with so many roommates while paying $2500 per months. Absolutely ridiculous.
I grew up with toilet sinks! They are actually common in Japan and it saves water :)
Noémie Daniel-Endo how does it save water if it flushes Everytime you turn it on. Sounds like a waste
This is the dream! It's literally like friends ahhh
If your in you're 20s yes this actually sounds fun and exciting . Anyone over 30 it might be too many compromises. (Although in NYC its completely normal to have roommates at that age anyway)
How do they organise cleaning?
Loved hearing about her roommates and their personalities!
I’ve been so obsessed with this series! Been waiting for a new ep
+jayceeweber We upload Sweet Digs every other Sunday!
Refinery29 omg I didn’t know! my Sundays just got a little better!
The best serie on youtube!! Thanks
I loved the take with all the roommates...made me smile
I can’t deal with that many roommates. Two other people is the max amount of human contact I can deal with within a home environment.
I get a good feeling from this space, the roommate “family” and the location! So cool!
Her? Rachel Green? Yeah RIGHT!
bflower88 exactly. This woman seemed to have as much spark and personality as a three day old cup of black coffee.

I know! At first, I thought she may be dull and monotone because she was nervous being filmed, but to be an actress she really lacks in charisma.
I live with 2 friends in a 3 bedroom condo in San Diego, California. I have the master bedroom with an on suite and they have their own rooms with a shared bathroom. We also have 2 parking spots, a garage, in house washer and dryer and a front and back patio! We pay $2400! I couldn’t imagine living with 5 other people and paying that much, but hey it works for them🤷🏻♂️😅
The sink is how they do it in places like Korea - saves a lot of water
hotgiial101 it's cool!
I think Japan has more common practice of those sinks :) I’ve never really seen one in Korea tbh
It saves water if you are using it to wash your hands after a flush. It is supposed to be in a water closet or half bath. It actually wastes water if you use it otherwise such as brushing your teeth or other common uses.
I’m not much of a New York person but I must admit this apartment is niceeee
Seems strange for a house with 6 rooms to have such a small common living space.
My thoughts exactly. And a crappy dishwasher. These people letting landlords take them for a ride like that. If they left it empty it would drive the price down to where it should be
the kitchen was small also.
LOL the sink!! That’s hysterical hahaha what an innovative landlord
They matched outfits at the end 👌🏼
seewendy1 that was probably planned haha but it was cute
I actually love seeing all the rooms, thanks. I makes it more real some how.
No way in hell am I paying $1,200+ and having to share a washroom and kitchen lol NOPE!
Maybe its just the fact that I'm from Texas so I'm used to everyone owning a house and rent for really nice apartments only being a maximum of $1,800 for 2-3 bedrooms, but WOW, this series really opens my eyes to how people in other states live. It's really interesting. Like here you can get a really nice 3-4 bedroom 3+ bathroom house for $300,000, and the mortgage is just a little under $2,000 a month, the house is located in a well-off neighborhood and you're set. A $639,000 4 bed, 4 bath, 3,033 sqft house here only has a monthly mortgage of $3,292.
The people in these videos are insufferable. “Im an actress, shoe model, ballerina, and I work at a yoga studio” “and my apartment is furnished by Urban Outtifters” *GAG*
Sincere question, why do you think they are insufferable? 🤔
Greg what... would you rather they be?
I love the people in this series. They’re all charming.
Based on the room and items on the clothing rack..... Eugenia is definitely a Phoebe.
Goodness... 7500 for THAT?! I don’t care what the area is like. There is PLENTY of beautiful, great neighborhoods with amazing schools and a wide variety of restaurants, malls, etc for $3,000 a month that would get you a House 3 times the size of this apartment.
That adds up to about 8,400?
rent and utilities ma'am
Toilet sink! I was in CT’s women’s prison, YCI, last year and we had a counter from wall to wall, a sink on that counter, a toilet separate from the sink but next to and more shelves above the toilet. I thought I had it bad but you live in a $7500 apartment and have a toilet sink. I feel much better about the bid I did.
This girl looks dead behind the eyes. I don't see how she's going to be an actress, she has no presence.
carnival30 Savage .. but true
Shes stale af!
With her *overall cuteness* lmfao
Rude
@@Jebjess but true though!
How do they handle the refrigerator
