This has gotten more difficult over the years since I first lived alone, but I recommend it if itโ€™s an option. Otherwise, do everything I didnโ€™t do enough of: travel, date everyone, go out with friends, talk to your relatives, exercise, go to the dentist. *Do not go into debt to do any of this, however. And open an IRA account if youโ€™re American and must leave your retirement up to the whims of the stock market.

this March i moved out from my parents' to my own appartment, at first it was scary bc i didn't think I would be able to afford living by myself and keep my two cats, sometimes we're tight on money but so far it's been the best year I can think of, I've learned a lot from living on my own and I was able to do lots of things that I couldn't if I had stayed with my parents, like focusing on my own and on my projects and travelling with friends I'm really looking forward to next year <33

It's so crazy of me to even consider this as I haven't worked a single paying job in a year. I had a breakdown of sorts which led to me quitting school and stopping work. My parents were super supportive but perhaps not anymore. I want to move out now and have my own space. I don't want to wait for my life to "get in line" for me to try stuff and do things. Like moving out! But everything is so expensive in Addis and I would need at least about 5 months worth of monthly salaries to even consider moving out.

Okay, so I'm moving out! I'm so glad. I have no plan and I have no money but it's happening. ๐Ÿ˜…โ˜บ๏ธ Any advice on how to move forward?

The occupation persists, the oppression persists, the torture persists. The occupiers are psychotic and their work is never finished. People whoโ€™ve paid attention wonโ€™t be surprised by this photo from Gaza.
