Hey, /adv/. I'm sick of living with my family. I want my own space.
I'm 21 and going to school for a computer engineering degree. I currently have a part-time job.
How do I even get started moving out? If I get my own place I would need to have a car. I don't know if I could afford any of that. I just want to be independent, mang.
Live on campus??

Nah I live at home with my parents. Don't own a car. My dad drives me to and from campus and I have to wait until he gets off work to return home. Needless to say I feel very restricted.

No you idiot. Move into campus dorms. Easiest way to move out.

Not him but my school only let's first years live on campus. That being said there is a shitload of housing close to the school, and that farther away you go the cheaper it becomes (but still within reasonable public transit distance)

Yeah pretty much this.
Seems pretty damn expensive, though. Don't really know where to go from here. By the time I save up that much money I'd be out of school.

Just stay with your parents. It's super cheap
Save up money to get a car first. Any civic or corolla around 4K will do. Maybe a miata. Cars are not super expensive.

You're right, getting a car would go a long way toward my gaining independence. It's not like my parents give a shit about what I do, but I can't do anything because I can't go anywhere.
