I only have two.

Move out.
Be happy.

The two will be one with the other. Trust me. Once you are on your own, you will have all the independence you can wish for, and you can just be happy and enjoy your own company.

Eh, depends. I wish I could move back home, I barely make enough to support myself with a full time job.

Not really a New Years resolution as much as just something I wanna do: Put on some weight. I've come to terms with being a shorty but being scrawny won't do anymore.

On the opposite end, I live in my own place and make more than enough to support two people and still have some left over. And I make minimum wage. It definitely does depend.

It's absolutely beautiful, we really do live in paradise. Because I'm deep in the city I don't often get to experience it. The west coast in the south island is the middle earth. On the east side we get amazing beaches, lakes and snowy alps.

This year I'm finally going to do it. I'm going to propose to The Batlord.

I get to walk the bride down the aisle.

Essentially, it's a very good life, but you must be careful where you tread.

There are a lot of things to be learned about this world. Please promise us you'll be careful with your money, mindful with the way you spend your time, and entirely grateful for whatever you can obtain for yourself.

It's hard, but doable. I haven't seen my parents in about 2 years; I spent very little of my adult life in their company, and I'm a lot better off, but it has been difficult at times. Your perspective on a lot of things will gradually change and you'll learn so much, but you'll be so much happier once you're comfortable and confident.

Aye, I do know it's a mesmerising place (few people seem to rejoice at the thought of visiting the most fascinating and dazzling places on Earth, such as New Zealand, the Brazilian beaches, the Argentinian Patagonia, etc), but do things really go awry in the city? I thought the whole of NZ was absolutely well-organised!
