I landed on a Friday morning in San Francisco<\/strong> knowing I only had that weekend to get settled in my new place before I started working on Monday.<\/p>\n

I took an Uber from the airport straight to my new apartment. I had done some research on the neighborhoods and decided on this room but wasn’t too sure about what to expect. I arrived into a beautiful victorian style house and grabbed the keys from a lockbox. I walked in with my suitcases and was met by a very friendly roommate. She showed me around the apartment and where everything was. I was introduced to my two other roommates, they are all USF students!<\/p>\n

I started unpacking and realized how much stuff I needed to get organized. I spent the weekend going to the bank, visiting numerous Ikea and Target stores to set up my new room, meeting my roommates and trying out the public transportation system. I already started noticing how intricate the city was and how different neighborhoods were from each other. But sightseeing would have to wait until I finished getting settled, I still had so much to do! I did some grocery runs and tried to get my room ready to feel prepared for my first work day on Monday.<\/p>\n

Trying to figure all of this out at once in a couple of days wasn’t easy but I managed to get it all done and feel somewhat ready for my first day at work!<\/p>\n
