I recently moved into my first apartment shortly before my second year of college. I lived in the dorms at school for my freshman year, which kind of sucked, and I of course lived with my family for my entire life before that. As my family helped me move into the apartment, and for the first week after the initial move-in, these are some of my thoughts on my new living situation.

1. Finally, I'm out of my parents's houses and done with dorm rooms and free to live my life unsupervised. All I have to do is move all this stuff into the apartment.

2. Two flights of stairs isn't a lot.

3. I have a lot more stuff than I thought.

4. Do I really need all this stuff? Is it worth sweating this much carrying it up these stairs?

5. Ok, now that it's all in the apartment, where is it going to go?

6. I need more stuff to make this place cuter.

7. Wow, I'm so ready to be on my own.

8. I have to make sure I'm not too loud, I don't want to disturb any of my neighbors.

9. I really hope I never have to speak to any of my neighbors.

10. I have no food but at least everything looks cute.

11. The grocery store is literally the worst I'd rather starve.

12. Who's gonna take my trash? What do normal people do with all their trash when they don't have someone to pick it up?

13. Better not leave all these lights on I don't want a crazy electric bill. Maybe I should turn off the AC... Wow, I am now an adult.

14. Yes, I get to choose what's for dinner and when to eat it.

15. Eating without my family is kinda boring.

16. It's really quiet and kinda creepy at night around here, better make sure the door is locked 30 times before bed.

17. I miss my family.

18. This will be so much better when my roommate gets here.

19. I love the apartment life.
