Growing Up

There is a time when every young person matures and gets a job and moves out of their parents house. For some people it's when they turn 18 or when they graduate college. I even have friends that moved out as soon as they graduated highschool, not even being 18 yet. Everyone has to move out and if you don't your life could get seriously messed up. There are those 30 years olds who are thirty and they still haven't moved out. My girlfriends uncle for example, he lives at my girlfriend's grandma's house (or his mom's house) and he has three kids. It's really a strain for all of them to live there because it's not a very big house. So what people need to do is move out as fast as they can or as fast as they can afford it. I am moving out in about two months from my house, though I wanted to move out as soon as I turned 18. I didn't have3 a job at the time so me moving out in December, when I turned 18, would have been impossible to afford it. I have a construction job lined up making 11 dollars as hour as soon as I graduate. My friend works there and he gets weekly checks of about 350 dollars so it seems like a really good job. I know that if I work there for about a month then I'll have enough money to get an apartment started on my own. I'll even have enough money to get a new car if I wanted to. There is a bachelor pad on edgewood road for 180 dollars a month and my friend is planning on moving in with me as soon as he turns 18 and that'll cut all of my costs in half.
