I am not going to make a litany on how hard it was for me to live away from home because I was not really trained to prepare my own food, do my laundry, budget my money, shop for my needs. I believe that as a child, it should have been taught early on by my mom. Its just that she thought, excelling academically would make my life better.

I can relate to that, except for the budget part. That was never an issue for me. I've learned since very young to always spend less than I earn.

I cannot drive because, the possibility of dying from driving a car is likely.

I had a car for a few years and I got involved in several accidents. Next time, I might not be as lucky. So now I use Public Transport, too, as I'm sick and tired of crashing.
