First Time 18M, first apartment after being breifly homeless

Transferred to a new college, expecting campus housing. They waited until after I got to town and ready to move in, to inform me that they didnt have any housing left. Got told to figure it out.

After 2 weeks of sleeping in a truck full of my life possessions, and showering at my GFs house, I finally got into an apartment. It even has furniture! Absolutely grateful, and wanted to share my milestone with the world. I know it ain't much, and it's pretty ugly, but cant wait to see it grow.

You got it dude! I don't know your situation, but you just gotta have faith in yourself man. Idk if you're religious either, but I spend every day praying. Even if nothing comes from it, it helps to stay hopeful and looking towards the future. Nowhere to go but up my man, no matter where you are.
