You miss understand lol.
I am deciding what I wanna do in uni now, ready for when I go in 9 months.
Most people here spend at year in the uni halls then rent a flat or share a house.
Soooo technically I could be in my own house very soon, I won't be, but I could be. Some of my friends have been living on thier own since they were 16.
So here, the age gap between us isn't that great.
