Stay
After looking at many, many apartments, I decided to stay. It wasn't an easy decision. After all, I did give my landlord my 30 day notice and was pretty sure I was going to find a great new apartment. Something better than mine, something that's an upgrade to what I have now. The places I saw were either not good enough, or almost there, but not quite. The whole experience was quite humbling. I thought I was overpaying, but now I think this is pretty fair. Of course, if I continued to look, I might find something better. I just lost my drive. I did not feel like calling places, making appointments, checking out sub-par or slightly better apartments, and then giving up again. I might as well just stay and be content. I was glad I took time to search very carefully and aggressively though. I was casually looking before I gave my 30 day, and I was never that serious about finding the one. Because I set that deadline myself, I pushed myself for definite results. Even though in the end I didn't find the apartment upgrade I was looking for, I learned my apartment was actually pretty decent, even if it had its own problems. For now, consider this task checked.
