hermit sticks head out of front door, smiles

alyssamarzolf:

i’m excited.

my sister moved into a new apartment and i’m watching the office on her big TV while she falls asleep with her boyfriend.

they’re a good couple. i hope they last forever.

her cat has a chirping bird toy that she leaps on regularly. so cute.

i’m seeing my oldest friend tomorrow. we’re going to go shopping. everything is fun if you’re with loves.

i may even see molly while on break.

i’m feeling adventurous. who wants to go on an adventure?

and when i get back to chicago i’m moving into a new apartment and living by myself for the first time in my life. it will be lonely yet liberating.

Having your own place is pretty great. It’s strange, when people ask me how I like living alone it sounds funny. It sort of implies that I feel lonely. I’d say I feel more independent than anything. Instead, I just respond “I don’t live alone, I have my own place and it’s wonderful.”
