I can imagine all the mixed feelings. I have moved 9 times!! Doesn't that sound crazy? My only consolation is that I get to clear off a lot of unwanted junks. Hope you settle down soon.

It's a crazy town, here are my top 10 survival tips: 1) everyone's a crazy driver 2) feel free to turn left on Red or you will never turn (and hereby become one of said crazy drivers) 3) When driving down Wilshire for the first time, the lines on the road are not stopping optional crosswalks -- they're mandatory crosswalks with pedestrians in them (you don't want to learn this the hard way! When I first arrived years ago, I blithely zoomed through all of them and got an aghast look and the finger from a woman who screamed "thanks a lot biyaaaatch!" to my mortified "sorry!" It was my CLUELESS moment) 4) everyone's aspiring to be someone else and that's good and bad 5) Go to the beach in Santa Monica often 6) everyone's in "the biz" 7)LA is neighborhoody but not New York neighborhoody (people don't attach their identities to them) 8) they're are great little escapes when need to get away in LA or just out of town 9) somethings are just different out here, don't expect like normalcy or order ;) (you seem to be discovering that already with the apartment hunt! One apartment building we lived in, one day the receptionist in the leasing office answered the phone saying "Welcome to ____ hotel!" Hotel? Um, no, this is an apartment... so LA!) 10) enjoy it, it gets into your blood, and try to come up for air because everyone is very career focused, which is good and bad! hope this helps! ;) Welcome to LA!
