More apt hunting and any advice?

I went to another apt. today. It's in Back Bay basically right on Mass. Ave. It would be very convenient to work, just go over the Mass. Ave. bridge and I'm there. The building was nice and secure w/ elevator, laundry downstairs, though the apt. was on the first floor so don't need the elevator. Laundry is good though! it's a small one bedroom. you walk in and you're in the kitchen. step forward and you're in the living room. to the left is the little bedroom and there's a bathroom. probably enough space for me, and better than a studio because there's a separate bedroom even if it is small. the realtor guy sucked, he was late and then didn't have the key to the apt. just to the front door so i had to wait even longer for him to go get the key. meanwhile another realtor came to show these 2 girls and after they were done he let me look real quick. then he of course gave me his card and said he had the best apts, of course you do. so i keep waiting for my guy. he eventually comes and i take a better look. hardwood floors, high ceilings, everything seems nice, just a little small. it's available now so that's the biggest problem for me. i have another cheaper place to look at next wed. so i'm not making any decisions before that. but this back bay place is $1300/month, unless i take it sooner than later the realtor said i could get it for $1250 or $1275 maybe, whatever that means. i'd also have to pay this crummy realtor half fee. it comes w/ heat and hot water but i'd still have to pay for cable, internet... so it's kinda too expensive though i could probably manage somehow. i found out what my next raise will be end of july, basically enough to take the place and i always have the backup credit cards. anyway, i have another place in harvard sq. to look at that's a one bedroom for $1100 and everything included, even cable and internet. so anyway, that's the latest.
