I have been in my first place for about three months now and I feel like I spend half my time googling things I genuinely did not know I needed to know, like I had no idea water pressure could just be a personality trait of an apartment. Mine takes a full minute to warm up and I have just accepted that as part of my morning routine now or the fact that i can hear my upstairs neighbor's entire life in real time. I know his schedule better than my own at this point. i did not sign up to know when this man wakes up but here we are.

I feel like there is a whole list of things nobody tells you until you are already living it. What is the one thing you wish someone had warned you about before you moved into your first apartment?

Okay, earlier when I was eating rice with ketchup with my friend and she looked at me like I had just personally offended her. I have been eating it that way since I was a kid and I genuinely cannot understand why people act like its a crime.

It is sweet and salty at the same time and it works. I will not be taking questions.

But it made me realize everyone has that one weird food thing they do that other people find either gross or just baffling. The combo that makes total sense in your head but the moment you say it out loud people look at you differently.

So what is yours. I promise this is a judgment free zone. Mostly. XD
