Let me be excited

I wish people would let other people be happy and excited with out trying to bring them down.

The best example I have for this right now is me moving.

Obviously I'm extremely excited because its the first time I'm moving out, and not into a dorm.

I'm excited to write my first check for my first months rent (I've never needed a check book but I have one now so yeah shut up I'm excited).

I'm excited to make my own rules, and take care of myself (which is basically just doing what every I want whenever I want).

I'm excited to finally just...you know LIVE.

The one thing that I keep hearing from people, when ever I tell them I'm excited, is the same fucking thing.

"Yeah you're excited now but wait until you have no money after paying all of your bills" or some version of that.

OBVIOUSLY I know that money is going to be a little bit tight.  I'm not going into this thinking I can continue living the way I've been living for the last 21 years.  I've already started to change my spending habits, and my eating habits.

I don't go out, I don't go to movies as often as I would like (which is difficult because I love movies), I don't buy unnessacary clothing items (or items at all anymore).

I work 3 jobs and decided to go places based on if I can spare the gas.

I'm very much aware of money.   I don't need people reminding me something I've been thinking about for the last several years.

So please, if someone is excited about things, let them be excited.  Don't burst their bubble just because your's was.
