My mom kicked me out in December and I had been staying with my grandparents till this week. I’m renting a room in a house with two older women. They both work at an abortion clinic and love to talk about it all the time, which is cool with me as I think it is kind of funny actually. I signed a lease for six months and I think it will work out ok. ---

Congratulations on taking responsibility for your life. It won’t be easy, but the rewards are more than worth it, much more. ---

Wow. That really is mundane and pointless. Thanks for sharing. [insert smilie here because I’m to lazy to go advanced] 🙂 Not so lazy after all. ---

Congrats! I absolutely love not living with my family. They are great, don’t get me wrong, but to them I will forever be a 7 year old girl and that doesn’t make for happy living situations. Im sure you will love living on your own (well, with roomies, but that is also good.) ---

Congratulations! A little under two years ago, my mother and I got kicked the house we were living in (long story). I chose not to move into a new place with her. Instead, I ended up living with my (7 years older) brother for about 9 months before graduating to my very own place. It’s a blast, even though I’m sure I will later regret the massive student loans I take out in order to somewhat afford it. As a bonus, I have a MUCH better relationship with my mother now that we’re apart. I can genuinely say that not only do I love her just 'cause she’s my mom, but I actually LIKE her too. 🙂 I don’t know what your situation is, but if there are bad feelings there I wish you luck in resolving them. Otherwise, have fun living it up on your own!
