MOVING OUT!!! (yes, literally i'm being forced outta my home ASAP ;;)

ha, you fell for my clickbait.

 

OKAY but yeA ; - ; technically i'm still moving out of my house by the end of this week and because of that (and many other things i wouldn't or i would yet to mention) my mind has gone all over the place.

i'm currently a uni student (freshman uwu pls i'm still a kid at <3) and since my uni is two cities away from my place, my folks and i decided that i should stay in a dorm so that i could just walk to my classes and not have a hard time travelling to and fro errday. (it takes 2-3 hours to commute btw >_<)

 

The problem is... I'm not really prepared. For anything.

 

right now, i still have a lot to pack, i still need to buy a few items here and there. and i still am on the verge of another breakdown (again).

 

PLUS PLUS PLUS there are just so many things to worry about when you're living alone. like, what food you're gonna eat, hOW TF are ya gonna wake up early for school, what are ur roomies like, how do u get by every day, WHO DO YOU TALK TO, where's mom... who's gonna take care of u when u're sickie... what if u got no money to spend for the rest of the week? eMeRGenCIEs?!?!? what if u had a panic attax... shiet man.

 

i've been sheltered by my family all 18 years of mah life nOWWW I'm Really Going Outta My Comfort Zone. man this is scaring (scarring? hopefully never!) me.

THINGS LIKE THOSE seriously make me sigh so deeply right now. ADULTING IS SO HARD MAN HOW TF DO GROWNUPS DO THAT.

 

any thoughts? also, i think i really need a hug right now. even just for a sec. hug 듀떼용 ㅜㅡㅜ

It might be scary and hard at first , but you'll be thankful for the experience as it helps to prepare you for adulting. As for food , you can keep some dry supply like biscuits , cereal , cup noodles .. Slowly , you can try learn how to cook easy simple dish too , or go outside and eat.

You can set you alarm and wake up on your own. I believe that you should at least be capable of doing so because that's like the most basic thing . You'll have to learned how to managed your time .

Don't worry too much about your roomies. What's important is that you respect each other and be considerate . Don't on songs loudly when they are sleeping or studying , clean the place after using , don't touch and use things that are not yours without permission , and etc .. Basically as long as you mind your manners , you'll survive.

Don't won't even have the time to worry about how to get by the day because you'll be too busy rushing for all the deadline for assignments .. You'll wish that there's more than just 24 hours a day when that happens.

Who do you talk too depends on how well you carry yourself? Be friends with everyone that will help you alot. However , do becareful in picking the right person to trust . Don't mixed and learned all the bad / wrong things . Know that your purposed is to study and do well . If you missed your mom , you can always call back home. Now you'll realized how much your mom have done for you all this while. So be thankful (expressed it , treat her better and love her more).

You have to learned to take care of yourself when you're sick. Prepare some medication for fever , flu , diarrhea , cough in the medical kit. Go see a doctor if you have too. Sometimes, if you have good roommate , they will help take care of you .

If you have no money left for the week, it's due to money management . You need to learn how to control on your spending. I suggest you to keep a ledger . Write down all of your expenses in order to keep track of your expenses. Keep the receipt and also staple them together . There's always ways on how you can save cooking on your own. Share food with friends , and etc ..

Emergency - you have to always be prepared . Learn to solve things own your own and taking good care of your own safety and belongings. Go seek for help if you need.

As for panic attacks , maybe you can tell your friends and roommate about it once they gained your trust .. so that they know about your condition . You can seek for help if you need . Don't worry , no matter what , I think as long as you asked politely , people will help you as they can especially when it comes to health , safety that kind of thing.

Basically , don't think too much. Just try to enjoy the journey as much as you can. Go meet different people , go explore and experience many different things. Make memories . I think if you can make studying fun , you will do well.

All the best in your future undertakings :) Don't be afraid . It's all part of the process . You can do it! Have a blessed day . *Hugs*

Aw, I’ve lived on my own for the past 6 years so I know your fears uwu and let me tell you, adulting is a thing you never really stop learning lmao
But it’s gonna be fine and you’ll find food. You’ll learn what’s easy to make or what you like and you’ll eat it because you can do whatever you want and honestly, that’s such a relief :3
You’ll do fine! :3 I hope you don’t stress too much, learn from it ~ you don’t need to have everything under control anyway!
