So I made a list of things I don't like about living by myself. Here it is:
Downfalls of being a young women living alone:
-Easy to get bored when alone.
- No one to play board games or card games with when you do get bored.
-You have to cook when you get hungry, even though you don't feel like it because there is no one else there to do it.
- When you do feel like cooking there is no one to cook with to make it fun.
-Also no one to bake with.
-There is no one there to try the new recipe you found.
-When you cook too much food there is no one there to help you finish it.
-No one is there to kill the scary bugs that appear in the bathroom and you have no idea what it is, but it is scary and you don't want to be near it.
-No one is there to trace pictures on your back or rub your back when you can't fall asleep.
- No one there to comfort you when you have a nightmare.
-Every noise makes your mind wander to the worst possible scenario (burglars, ghosts, scary people) (which can also make it difficult to sleep).
-No one there to ask if the outfit you are wearing looks good enough for the public eye.
- No one to come home to tell about your day, or hear about theirs.
-No one there to make sure you don't sleep in too late.
-No one there to make sure you get to work on time.
-No one there to immediately express each crazy thought that appears in your head.
-No one there to look at you like you are crazy after you express that crazy thought you were thinking.
-No one to build a fort with (because building a fort is no fun when done alone).
-No one to have a pillow fight with.
-No one to annoy by throwing pieces of paper at them.
-No random dance parties (it's not a party when it's just you).
So there may seem to be a lot of downfalls about living by oneself, and maybe more that I didn't list, but there are also some upsides...
Upsides of being a young women living alone:
-You can play music as loud as you like.
-You can play whatever music you like and no one can complain.
-You can say crazy things and no one is there to look at you like you are crazy.
-You don't have to worry too much about how messy the apartment looks because it's just you.
-You can eat ice cream right out of the carton because you don't have to share.
-All the food is yours.
-You can sing as loud as you like with out worrying who is listening and judging your skills.
-You have your own schedule and no one is there to mess it up.
-So much time to read.
-Dinner is whatever you want, no need to worry about other peoples taste buds.
-You can take extremely long showers if you like, no one else is waiting to use the bathroom.
And even though some upsides are really nice, there are still a lot of downsides. And even if I could think of more upsides I would still prefer to have a least one roommate of some sort. I think I miss living with my family or having a roommate like I do at school. It makes me more excited for the Fall semester to start or it makes want to move to Florida to be with my family all the time...The Fall semester is closer.
I'LL LIVE WITH YOU AND HELP ALLEVIATE YOUR BOREDOM.
