I almost have an apartment... just waiting for the official lease agreement. And I'm coming from outside the mainland US so I will not have any furniture to take with me. I'm hoping there will be some garage sales in the vicinity of where I'll be moving, just so that I won't have to go home to an almost empty house. Also, there are some things that I would like to bring which I know will not fit into my luggage, so I'll definitely ask my parents to send them to me either by USPS or by private shipping (e.g. FedEx).
