Apartment hunting is pure hell

I'm currently looking for apartments around my college to live in my junior and senior year. For all those that have never done it before...it is not fun. My older brother and I planned to be roommates so I've been looking for two bedroom ones. I had been looking everyday for a month and had yet to find anything. I pretty much exhausted Craigslist. Yesterday after riding around I finally found the most perfect house, conveniently located and conveniently priced. Then my brother backed out of me in favor of living with a friend. So now I'm both homeless and roommate-less. Hopefully things turn around and soon. For now its back to square one...searching for more apartments.
