Ch..Ch...Changes

There are a lot of things I am very concerned right now and occupy nearly my every waking thoughts. The first one being my students, in particular my Mock Trial kids and having them come together and work as a team. The new students that I just have seem great but I miss some of my old favorites from last semester. The second concern is living conditions. To live on my own or not is the question. My roommate is buying a house. She is great and is so excited. She also found a GREAT DEAL!!! This house needs some improvements but for the neighborhood and the price she is getting it for it is a STEAL!!! I mean it. But her buying this house has made me face what I am doing sooner than when I wanted to and it has actually made me really concerned what is the best for me. So I am going to write Pros and Cons as follow

Pro of the house with my roommate:
Nice Location
Cheaper than current room
Trust the roommates
We are respectful of each others' space
Free to do my own thing
Close to School
Save Money

Cons of the house with my roommate:
TEENY TINY ROOMS, seriously my bed will take up one room and I would have to put a lot of my stuff in other places around the house. (Suggestion by the roommate if you wondered)

GROSS, OLD BATHROOM!!!!! Seriously nasty, and the showers are so so short!

Then my roommate said to me, "We get along so well living together because we all just do our separate things and stay in our rooms. I don't even need to buy a coach for the house." Where she is saying this is a pro, I put it firmly in the cons. If I am going to be sharing space with people, at this point of my life, I want to be friends with my roommates and do stuff with them and throw parties with them and have fun with them. Otherwise what is the point of living with people.

Don't know who gets what, such as parking and rooms in the house

So where does this leave me...RENTING MY OWN PLACE!!!! It is so exciting to me. I just get so happy thinking of being on my own and not dealing with roommate crap.

Pros:
MY OWN SPACE!!!!!
No drama!!!!

Cons:
Have to buy more furniture
MORE EXPENSIVE!! That is scary to me. Really scary I like saving money and having plenty to do whatever I like because I am careful with my money. This would make it nearly impossible.
