How to move out of my parents house into a place of my own
It made me
proud & lonely!
 "It is very liberating to live on my own, but I miss my family."
How I did it: Technically, I moved out of my grandparents' rather than my parents' house. I think they are happy to have their space & it makes me happy to make them happy. I also enjoy having space that I can arrange as I please. It is also nice not to feel the need to explain why I am in my 30's and still live with family. But I miss them. I don't see what's so important about moving away from your family- people throughout history & in other cultures would never dream of such a thing. |

I’m on a waiting list for the apartment I want. Apparently the leasing agent had a busy day yesterday and had a lot of people in for that apartment. The good news is the two people who are ahead of me need co-signers if they want the apartment and I’m being approved to take over if they can’t get one.
$250 is put down though. $150 deposit, $50 application fee, $50 admin fee.

Overtime at work is allowing me to move out sooner than expect. My mother is coming with me to look at both the floorplans in the complex I’ve been eyeing and hopefully I can begin the paperwork afterwards for a July 1st move-in.

Found the perfect place on Monday. Now I just need to save to get furniture for it and build an emergency fund and then I’m good.

I thought about it and September isn’t really realistic if I want to be out without struggling month to month until the new year rolls around. So, my new dat is 01/01/2010.

I love my sister, but I cannot live with my parents, her, and her family.
Her having financial difficulties gave me the push that I need to save more money and finally get out of here. I even set a date. I want to be out by September 1, 2009.
Since she’ll be moving in, that means I won’t have to help her out financially anymore and it can go straight to my savings.
♥♥ Rissa Adell ♥♥ is glad its summer but missing school
I’m not particularly keen on this actually. I love my family. But I’ll be 19 on Monday (March 9) and I need to do this for school. I live in Seabeck and go to Olympic College in Bremerton, which is fine right now. But next fall I’m starting the Music Theory courses and they start at 7:45 in the morning. I’d have to leave my house by 6:45 just to get there on time, earlier in the winter. I’m not a morning person, and if I move back into Bremerton I wont have to leave for school until around 7:30ish and should still have a few minutes once I park. There you have it. Early classes and gas are my rationale for moving. I’ll be saving up the funds for this endeavor from here on out and plan to work my butt off all summer… and hopefully find a roomate or two… or three. The goal is to have a place by late August/early September 2009. I probably need to live on my own anyway. It may very well be the only way I’ll be able to get a handle on some of my problems, and truly feel like an adult.
