How to move out on my own
It made me
 "Growing up."
How I did it: It was impossible for me to find a nice apartment in the city. I tried and tried and tried. I don't know how people move into Manhattan. It's impossible. Who can pay $1,800 rent and still hope to put some money away? Lessons & tips: I think it's a shame sometimes that life doesn't work out the way we

How I did it: I was thinking about it for quite some time. Then I made a plan of what I want and a circumstances helped a bit. I was monitoring adds for a two months since I was in no hurry and quite busy. Then I started calling some ads. And seeing a few suitable flats. The cheapest ones were quite hard to get, since the owners were manually picking people to take. Then I decided to rest for a while, but a nice add came and I still went to see it.

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
6 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.

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