A spice rack? For real? I was on an air mattress for my first month or so! A spice rack was the last thing on my mind when I moved in.

Luckily my roommates are older than me, so they’ve amassed grown-up stuff like vacuum cleaners and and curtains.

Melissa, I never looked at impending graduation in this way... what a good way to look at it! Getting set-up could become an emergency for the unprepared. Thanks again for your thoughts about joining the "real world" over at Geezeo. Good luck, I look forward to hearing more about your journey!

Melissa: First of all, congrats on the Geezeo interview. It was peppered with tips and wit in true "Melissa" form. Great job! I remember my first apartment and considered the move-in moment to be my financial coming of age. It taught me independence and what it means to be self-sufficient. Of course, after the move I never felt I could or should ask my parents for money. Welcome to adulthood!
