Things you need to know before living on your own
If you're preparing to take the big step of living alone in another country or another city where do not count with the support of your family, you should consider these tips that will help you.
With the situation of this country many young students are considering moving to another country to finish their career, others wants to be independent and living alone. Most of the people who want to be independent are young students who have always relied on mom and dad, without experiences and with afraid to do not know what do to; but do not worry about that things that you probably you have never done alone, i will give you these tips that WILL HELP YOU!
1 YOU aRE GOING TO HAVE UNPLANNED EXPENSES
You'll be happy because you will manage your own money, but everything will be gone before you started to plan on what you will spend the money, you will start to have so many debts that you did not see when you lived with your parents because they paid the electricity, your clothes, your food, etc; AND NOW?
My advice is: Do not spend all your money on everything you would ever want for the simple fact of living alone, save every day a small amount of money and you will see that you can pay bills without any problem.
2 YOUR ROOMMATES MIGHT BE CRAZY
Most of students are living with a roommate, and BELIEVE ME it is not easy, maybe that person could do things that you do not like, maybe they might not respect your things, perhaps that person could be messy or maybe have a very different personality
My advice is: just establish clear rules when you arrive to your room or apartment, speak kindly and say the things you like and and the things you do not, tell them that you like order and tell them that they have to respect your food and things; so that person will have clear the rules and you will see that there will no problems in the future.
3 CLEANING WILL HAPPEN and cooking will also happen
This is a fact that you should know before living alone, everything gets dirty very very very fast and remember: THERE IS NO MOM :( to help to clean up the mess, or wash, or cooking.
My advice is: ORGANIZE YOUR TIME, choose a weekend to wash all your clothes, so it does not accumulate, also keep your place clean always, it will make it much easier to organize. You can do everything, all is a matter of organization because is not easy be responsible for washing your dishes, doing your laundry, dusting, sweeping, mopping, cleaning toilets, etc.
These are some of the things you should consider and be prepared for when you decide to live by your own
Money, cleaning and sharing, those I think are the most difficult topics for when we talk about living on your own. But as it could be stressful having a roomate it could also be really fun, besides you won't feel so alone in your place. The must important is to organized yourself, schedule everything and you won't have any problem. PS: loved the friends gifs.
ResponderEliminarI imagine that it is not as easy as it sounds, and that is why everyone wants to live alone, because is hard to assimilate the real struggle that it takes if you have not live it by your own, I am very proud of you for doing all of that because I know it must take a lot and your need to be very responsible because otherwise your house and life would be a total mess, I am very glad you are able to manage all of that and in addition you try to help other with your own experiences.
ResponderEliminarI thnik that living is a great expierence for a person that needs to grow up, to prove himself or herself against the world. Money, cleaning and all this stuff are very difficult to do, mostly when you do not have your parents for helping you. Your tips are pretty amazing for those who wants being responsible and being able to care about their own life, future and everything.
