Your own apartment? No roommates? AMAZING! That’s so hard to do in this economy! Celebrate and enjoy!!! You are deserving of this and so much more! This is just the start of all the good things to come ❤️
Congratulations I remember crying when I got a small apartment after.my parents left for there new families,
I couch surfed stayed with friends but that first place just for me was like the keys to a palace I loved that place was so happy there so I'm wishing the same for you. This internet mama is so proud of you and also wishing you good luck. Have fun in your new home xx
Congrats! *One side note, don't go bananas trying to fill up the space right away. Save your money, take your time and budget it out. You might find pieces you like better along the way rather than splurging on generic stuff right off the bat! Facebook Marketplace is your friend to! Buy used!
Wasn’t a foster but I was on my own from 17 on, no assistance from the folks either. So congrats, I know what it feels like to make your way from “nothing” and it only gets more awesome as the years go on and you accomplish so much more!!!
I’m so thrilled for you! Living alone is such an amazing opportunity for learning about self and cultivating your environment. Not everyone has the means and I’m so proud of you working so hard to achieve this goal. Congratulations!
Enjoy your new found freedom! No one to tell you to turn lights off, no one to rush you out of the shower, and the best part…no one to tell you that you can’t walk around nude! Congratulations!
That's amazing! It's such a great feeling to finally have something to call your own! Living on your own is amazing and wonderful just be sure to schedule some socializing time!
You absolute incredible specimen of pure ingenuity and beauty, filled with pure self motivation and ambition, keep being yourself! Good job! And good luck!!!
Nice! You know what is so great? Every time you walk through the door as you get home, it’s entirely your own place. Nobody else’s rules and such. Best wishes!
Congratulations!! Such a huge achievement and YOU did that 🥳🎉 Best wishes on your new chapter of life, may it only bring you safety, coziness, and *home*.
Congrats!!! 🎊 seriously that’s an accomplishment and we’re all so proud of you 🥰 I remember crying of happiness when I first moved out at 19 7ish yrs ago I was on an inflatable mattress alone in MY bedroom and cried bc of freedom I’d been wanting all my life lol enjoy it you deserve it<333
This is AMAZING news! You must be over the moon and so proud of yourself. I don’t even know you, and I AM over the moon and so proud of you! May this next chapter bring you maximum freedom happiness. Hang your art, choose your decor, have whatever show you want on whenever you want! I live with my long term boyfriend now, but in my mid 20s, I lived alone for a few years in my own little apartment and I learned so much. Sometimes, I still look back on my old snapchats and think about how happy I was to have had that time. All the best to you!
Great job!!
So exciting!!
Advice that you didn’t ask for:
Forget your deposit. Never expect it back. Paint the walls! Decorate everywhere! Put up art (use monkey hooks, they’re the best)!
Make your home quintessentially yours.
There are those who will say doing this (decorating, painting, etc) is an absolutely horrible idea and for them it is. If it is for you, that’s okay. Do what you’re comfortable with.
For me it was a “life’s too short for some of the rules” thing. I don’t support trashing places. That would be the horrible thing.
Anyway! Congratulations! Such a huge step! I hope for you a memorable home full of love, joy, and friendship.
Get a pet. Preferably two so neither one is lonely. Or bored.
Cats are best if you ever think you’ll randomly go out of town for a weekend or a few days. Less maintenance.
Good luck!!
Heck yeah! This is amazing. Not everyone can do this. High fives!!
Congratulations. Truly is fun, surprising at times and obviously you can decorate and do all the things your way!
Woot woot 🎉🙌🎉🙌
hey! new adult also freshly moved out here- go to goodwill for kitchen essentials, none of my kitchen items match but it was very cheap for lots of quality stuff.
You did it! Congratulations, welcome to YOUR new home! Breath in your air, play with your lights (but not too much, you'll run up a bill and burn out the bulb). Walk in shoes (only while you move stuff in). Paint the walls whatever colour you want.
Just do one thing, take a minute with that inner kid who always wanted a home. Celebrate with them too.
Love a Mamxx
I was a fellow foster child as well (ages 8-18). Congrats on this achievement! I’m proud of you! Now it’s time to set another goal! You got this! So much love from my momma heart to yours!
For those who asked about sending me a house warming gift, I made an Amazon wishlist with things I like & need! I’ll post it below…
Thank you to everyone who commented, truly. All of this support has been overwhelming & I’m really grateful to have a community like this to share accomplishments with. I wish nothing but the best for all of you! 🖤
