Untitled 2 weeks ago

Im half way there, i was all the way there with my ex husband but now im back to being halway there and a happy camper. Im renting a room from a cool girl my age and we get along great, fortunatly its cheap because jobs are hard to keep these days but when i do get a good job and keep it for a few months im looking to move out on my own into a cozy one bedroom appartment, it will be interesting since i dont have any furniture except the stuff ive collected over the past few months thanks to my boyfriend. but it will be fun im sure to be able to have my own space with no one to tell me what goes!



Deciding and finding a flat 2 months ago

Decision was made. Freedom of being on your own and having room for yourself became greater than living at home – where you have company, someone taking care of laundry and food and all the expenses. So on a less busy month of april I checked 5 apartments and 5th was a nice deal. Not to expensive, nicely equiped. Although with some small problems like ants, dripping toilet pipe and not fully functional window blinds. But it should not be much of a hassle. So now I have the keys and I am slowly moving. This was a bit shock for my parents despite that I mentioned it a few months earlier and was also notifying them of what apartments I was checking. Keeping them informed was a good idea though as they were getting at least a little accustomed to the idea of me moving out.

Moving out. 3 months ago

I am dying to move out on my own but it is hard since I am an only child and I feel I am leaving my mom & grandmother behind.



Finally! 3 months ago

I got myself a part-time job, so now I can start looking for a place I like :) I hope I find something as soon as possible.

This is really planned for the near future. I think it is time to become independent and start living my own life.



RibbonCandy is taking a vacation

I'm a 26-year-old cheapskate 7 months ago

My mom doesn’t care that I’m still home, so neither do I. Okay, that’s a lie. I’m so ready to move. I’ve been saving up like crazy. I dream about having my own kitchen. I went to look at a condo nearby and got so excited when I saw it had a pantry. A pantry! I’m pathetic.

Rent or buy? Condo or house? I don’t know what to do, so for now I’m still daydreaming and saving. But I am going to start paying my mom rent. :)



stephrenia is.. Thinking that soul mate stuff must only happen for other people.

WOW! So not as easy as it sounds.. 8 months ago

I have a goal and a plan though so lets see how that works out. Something always has a way of messing with my plans :( I have LOTS of work to do and lots of changes to make! I need to cut down on some of my posessions and pets. Nicky want some more pets? I love you! London wants her own pet :)My original plan is for March 15th.. sooner would be great.

excited,nervous, 11 months ago

I’m moving away from home to the other side of the sea. I’d move together with my boyfriend, we’ve practised co-living already and I think we can live together without getting too much on each others nerves. I’ve had enough of being here. Just 2 weeks and I’d go there look things up. Then move as fast as possbile. After this whole summer of waiting I can’t wait to be there. Mum’s not happy about me going away there with him but she knows there’s no way to make me change my mind. AAAhh soon soon
