I need advice to a young adult going away to live for the first time but I don't know anyone who lives on their own.

Obviously its for school. Any and all help would be appreciated. I don't know anyone whose gone away to live on their own yet... 🙂

Are you going to live in a dorm? Apartment?

Will there be roommates?

No, its not me. Its an assignment my English teacher asked us to do...

I'm not going to just do your homework for you. Help? Yes. Do? No.

Put yourself in this person's place. Suppose you had a friend who was going to live on their own for the first time. Why are they making this decision? Do you agree with their decision? What will you tell them?

No, I actually have to ask someone. Here's the actual assignment:

"Ask an adult for advice to a young adult going away to live for the first time. Make a list on 8.5" x 11" paper with a heading"
 
Don't listen!! he is trying to trick you in to doing his homework!!! That is not really the assignment. 😉
 
Ah, ok. 🙂

My advice would be to budget carefully.

How long does the list have to be?

And can the advice come from more than one adult?

Man you guys are rough. Here is a scan of my notes to prove I'm not lying... 🙂

I'm going to poll as many people as I can. The more the better I guess...
