Like most people that have made it past their college years, I've had my fair share of good and bad roommate experiences. When you're stressed with school or work, having a great living situation makes all the difference in the world!
With all this in mind, I knew that when I moved back to Boone, I wanted something completely different. I wanted an apartment that I felt happy coming home to and somewhere I would enjoy spending my time.
I was ready to live on my own!
Luckily, after a lot of dead ends, I found the perfect apartment. It's a 1-BR, 1-BA, that is super nice! It's small enough for me feel cozy, but big enough to move around (and house most of my furniture.) It's the perfect situation! I can do whatever I want, whenever I want to do it!
Every day I think of new reasons why I love living on my own, here are just a few:
1. I can wash clothes anytime I want
2. I can arrange things exactly how I want them
3. I'm not woken up by anyone else slamming doors or inviting their loud friends over
4. I hardly have any dirty dishes
5. I can watch whatever I want on TV
6. I can put my things on every shelf of the refrigerator/pantry/etc.
7. The apartment is always clean
8. I can study, read, and work without interruptions
9. I can turn the heat on as high as I want!
10. I can shower as long as I want, whenever I want
Don't get me wrong, there are some things I do miss, like the companionship of having a great roommate, but at this time in my life, living alone just feels amazing!
Expect an apartment tour very soon!
As always, Have a Sweet Day!
So lucky you are to live on your own!! I would love to live alone, I made the mistake of living with my best friend for about 7 months...worst thing ever!! haha xo
ReplyDeleteThat's exactly why I want to love on my own!! I hope I can move out of my parents place soon :)
ReplyDeleteI have a wonderful living situation right not but I do have a roommate. This post makes me very ready to get my own place! Even with a good roommate being able to do the little things like watch what you want on tv and keep the dishes clean make all the difference! jealous, hopefully my time will come soon! (:
ReplyDeleteSo happy that you are happy! I really can't wait for the apartment tour!

Can't wait for the tour! I chose to live with a roommate post college, but only because I was an RA in college so I never had the experience of apartment living with a friend!
