How I did it:  I wasnt't yet ready to fully move out on my own being that I'm paying as much as I can for school each quater to lower my loan bills,fees, and buy my supplies and books out of pocket consistently and working part-time. My middle aged sister called and asked me if I wanted to move out and get a townhouse together. We got it in Novemeber and everything is peachy! I tough we'd go at it like bulls because we usually do. But, now we're closer than ever and we split the bills downthe middle. our lease is up in December of this year and I graduate this month.I got a lot of job offers lined up that will provide me stability and support my good lifestyle so I can live on my own and working full time in the coporate world!:)

Lessons & tips:

• There comes a point were you have to buy what you need and hold off on your wants
• How bad do you want to saccrfirice your wants sometimes
