Hey fellow PCO first years, I need a roommate! I've checked out several apartment complexes near the school and have information about them. The ones I visited were: Brookview at Elkins Park, Jericho Manor, Trilogy, and The Colonade. I saw the exterior/surrounding area of Wyncote House and Regency Park Apartments, and I did only that because Regency Park was closed for the day when I got to them and Wyncote House was "busy."
My favorite was Brookview, but I also liked Jericho Manor and Trilogy. I didn't really like Colonade and it seemed like the rent was a ripoff for what you got. I laughed my a** off when I saw ducks swimming in the dark green water of their pool and then the leasing agent said that they'd open up the pool soon
. I didn't care for the area that Regency Park Apts was in, it is in north Philly and things started getting a little too congested for me. Wyncote House did not look like anything special from the outside and they're expensive and I also don't want to live with a bunch of older people who I've been told are snooty. Also, the leasing agent from Wyncote is always busy when I call, so I figured they didn't want my business. I checked on the availability for the apartments at all of the places for around mid-August and they recommended that I get back to them as soon as possible if I'm interested. Colonade told me that there is now a wait list. I find that hard to believe.
I want to split the rent and I want a roommate so we could study together, have fun, etc. I've always been a commuter so I'm ready for something new. I need to know soon if I will have a roommate so that I know whether to get a 2 bedroom or a 1 bedroom. I'm an easy going guy who is easy to get along with and I have a good sense of humor. I'm pretty much right in the middle of the personality scale, a mix of extroversion and introversion. I can be quiet but I also enjoy going to the bar for some drinks and fun.
PM me or leave a post if you think you might be interested. Then, I'll tell you more about my personality and interests. Thanks, Matt.
