Moving

On this past Tuesday, I moved out of the family nest for the first time. Despite the difficulty of the move and having a few less conveniences, I made the right decision to leave home. I take pride in the fact that I've organized all of my belongings and am more self-sufficient. I cook all of my own meals without relying on my Mother and every morsel of food tastes that much better. Money's going to be tighter but the pros seem to be outweighing the cons so far.

To those of you who have been on your own for at least a few years, are there any tips you have? Any other things I should expect as a result of the move? Let me know. This phase of my life is extraordinarily new.
