Right now I'm solo.

Having no money really complicates life. Sure, it was my decision to live alone and pay more than double what I was paying last year, but doesn't my emotional well-being count for something? I don't think I would have survived living with a roommate for another year, and I almost mean that literally.

Don't get me wrong. I love having my own place. I love how everything in it is mine, chosen by me. I love how, when I get home from work, everything is exactly where I left it. I love that I can move from one room to another and do whatever I want, whenever I want. I can watch my shows, sit online for hours, take a long shower, and it doesn't matter because I only have to answer to myself.

Does it get lonely every once in awhile? Sure. But my two best friends live in this very building, just a 20 second walk away. And with those two, you can really never get too lonely.

But the money thing is the real downfall. I have methods starting in four (!!!) days, and I don't have the wardrobe for it. I have $25 in the bank right now. I have rent due again in 25 days. It's never-ending. But this is what I chose. This is the life I decided to lead. And you know what, I think it's a pretty good one.

Independence is awesome. But just like the over used cliche, with greater freedom comes even greater responsibility.

Best part is everything is where you left it, right!

Great post.
