first day living in my car
long story short got kicked out for a short period of time, am pretty much dead broke but have to live in my car for a few days. getting my paycheck in a few days then i can move in w one of my friends, while getting a new job i have lined up that pays better than my current one.
it feels really weird because i thought id be crying and in absolute pain getting kicked out, but this first day has just been so much fun. im normally cooped up in my room practically 24/7, especially after a bad breakup recently and losing my social groups, but today i went and did random things ive always wanted to but just was too lazy. i visited the river, walked the trail, went to the library, just sat at parks and enjoyed nature. i met new people too, and drank a bit with strangers and we did random stuff and worked out and talked about life. the only bad things are its really hard to get food because im broke, hard to start making more money, and really hard to sleep in my car. im just really restless and not even tired, its 3am as im writing this.
im very hopeful for my future, even if im only doing this for a week or so i feel like im going to learn a lot from this. if anyone has any advice for short term car living let me know, ive currently been walking around town to conserve gas, found spots i can charge my phone, get water, and use the bathroom 24/7, just need to get like $20-50 more dollars somehow so i can get a planet fitness membership to shower, do my laundry, and get basic hygeine for when my supplies run out. im most likely going to thug it out for the next 5 days, probably sell some of my old stuff, but any advice is appreciated. going to enjoy this short little journey
