    Yes, for me, It’s freedom too. After all, we’re all adults. We are required to stand on our own and be independent.

    One of my dreams, when I live alone, is a refrigerator that is full of beers! All my friends are welcome to play Xbox with me. Isn’t that exciting?

    A friend of mine always invites me to come over to her apartment. I asked her, why is she even doing that, hosting a party is quite expensive. She said that she’s tired of being alone.

    Isn’t it more fun if you have a housemate? You have someone to talk to, and you can still do those things even if you have a housemate, right?

    Having a pet at home makes you feel that you’re not alone. Please, do not buy pets, as much as possible adopt them.
