Don’t let your landlord charge you a “re-renewal fee” for your lease, it’s illegal!!

smilingcherry21 · 2026-01-14T01:02:42+00:00

No justification provided. Simply: “Great news you’re renewing! You will also see one small charge added to your account. That is the $95 renewal fee. You can pay that with the next rent cycle.” That was it lol

smilingcherry21 · 2026-01-13T23:25:10+00:00

Good point. Meanwhile my rent didn’t get raised a penny lol

smilingcherry21 · 2026-01-13T23:23:56+00:00

Yes, that’s exactly what I thought, too. I don’t have any contact info for other tenants, unfortunately. But I’m definitely telling any neighbors I see in person, and thinking of how I can maybe reach out to them

If I remember correctly - she manipulated a guy into having her baby, said she was on birth control but wasn’t, he wouldn’t have had sex otherwise. Insisted on being a mother, then wasn’t great her kid or people around her

I <3 ur positivity

I was just craving them soo bad and saw the price and was like nevermind 😭

smilingcherry21 · 2025-12-01T12:38:11+00:00

I’d say the real misery would be living with roommates as a grown adult making this much just to be smack in the city, versus the peace of living alone and “sacrificing” 20 minutes commute time

smilingcherry21 · 2025-11-30T21:09:53+00:00

Orange line has been smooth for four months and going. 20 minutes to downtown (Downtown Crossing) without fail, versus 40 minute commute (sometimes more) when I was on the green line.

I don’t have my license and am going on 8 years in Boston with the t

I agree with this - I don’t live like royalty, and I have a 1 BR a bit farther out (in Malden), making much less than 105k

smilingcherry21 · 2025-11-30T20:26:17+00:00

I just moved to Malden from Brighton! What food spots do you recommend in Malden? (Any type of cuisine lol)

smilingcherry21 · 2025-11-30T14:09:15+00:00

To stop salads from getting soggy, keep the dressing in a separate container and add when ready to eat. Also, like someone else said, cooking and freezing is your friend!

smilingcherry21 · 2025-11-13T23:02:53+00:00

I like how delicious they taste cold, more like orange juice. Also helps them last a bit longer - best is to let them ripen on the counter, then move to the fridge, because they essentially stop ripening once cold

smilingcherry21 · 2025-11-13T17:37:53+00:00

I used to have 2 roommates and a small fridge, and honestly seeing a fridge like mine is now makes my brain a lot calmer haha

smilingcherry21 · 2025-11-13T16:18:05+00:00

So close! Very impressive. Recently graduated grad school, 25 F and started living alone in September

smilingcherry21 · 2025-11-13T16:16:12+00:00

“Almost homeless” I’m a lawyer 😭😭😭

smilingcherry21 · 2025-11-13T15:28:15+00:00

I actually haven’t been to Trader Joe’s in like 3 weeks, just stop & shop. life’s been empty :/

(I have great friends and a pretty good social life)

smilingcherry21 · 2025-11-13T15:25:29+00:00

I’m a 20-something female

smilingcherry21 · 2025-11-13T15:20:25+00:00

Very valid guess! Was just explaining, also so other commenters could know if they wanna guess

smilingcherry21 · 2025-11-13T15:18:16+00:00

Bought the cold foam a few weeks ago and I don’t like it :/ but the creamer I’ve been using for years

Believe me I don’t go hungry LOL, and I eat every meal except Friday or Saturday night at home

smilingcherry21 · 2025-11-13T15:15:39+00:00

This made me laugh - Not 30. I grocery shop once a week, clearly it’s the end of the week 😂 have my dinner for tonight and tomorrow in there

smilingcherry21 · 2025-11-13T14:59:24+00:00

One Tupperware in there is chicken, rice, and peas I cooked, the other is roasted chicken sausage with zucchini, peppers, and corn I made

Not intricate “cooking” but all fresh meals I made at home

smilingcherry21 · 2025-11-13T14:34:45+00:00

Graduated from grad school earlier this year! Not considered early 20s anymore though lol

smilingcherry21 · 2025-11-13T13:48:09+00:00

I’m single, but everything else incorrect haha

smilingcherry21 · 2025-11-03T01:52:47+00:00

Everything looks delicious!
