Have you seen how many YAGTs the OP posts asking the same question? It gives the appearance of someone who can't make their own decisions and needs a lot of hand-holding.

Expenses:
Rent
Utitilites (Gas, electric, water, trash)
[Cell]
[Parking]
[Cable]
Internet
Consumables (Food, alcohol, household supplies, etc)
Furnishing (Initial expense, might lay out some serious cash)
Vehicle (Fuel, maintenance, insurance)
Health insurance
"Going out" (Dinner, lunches, bars, [clubs], movies, etc)
Clothing
Laundry
Personal Recreation (Computer, Television, Books, whatever your 'thing' is)
