I’m 60 and when I got my license my dad taught me to change a tire, change my oil, install a new battery… your dad is raising you right.

The years between 18 & 21 were super long for my husband and me. I was 17 & he was 18 when we got married. However, once age 21 hit….the years flew. He’s gone, I’ll soon be 80. Enjoy your life. ❤

My suggestion: Allow parents to purchase large apartment items like bed washer/dryer and plan on leaving them behind. Purchase nothing that won’t fit in your car and or whatever size uhaul trailer your car is capable of pulling.

You are soooo lucky to have a Dad who is ready, willing and able to teach you how to take care of your car! This skill will save you so much money, time and pain in the future!! Yay, Dad!!❤❤❤❤❤

Daddy made me learn to change my oil, filters, plugs and tires before he let me get my license. At least you have gloves. You haven't lived until you dropped the plug AND his wrench into the old oil you just drained then have to fish it out with your bare hands. Those are good memories. LOL!!! Anyway, you did a great job and you've got this! You're dad did an awesome job teaching you how to do this. Wait until you get to change the tires. I can still see myself having to JUMP up and down on the tire iron because the lugs wouldn't break. Fun memories.

Hint: It is often cheaper to buy new furniture, when you move, than hiring a moving van. So...let your parents pay for it all and leave it with the apartment.

If cash is an issue…Heads up about kitchen supplies….goodwill has tons of quality dish and cookware.

Not pouting! Mourning! And he deserved that time. Set a reminder on your phone for oil changes.

Dad is making you a pioneer woman of modern times.

I am 70 and my dad was a Greyhound bus driver and he told me before I got my license, that not only did I have to pass drivers ed, but I had to pass his instructions. He taught me how to change a tire, oil, keep the battery in working order, and equip my car with emergency bag, including jumper cables. Best training I had because it came from someone that cared about me. You are very fortunate to have such caring family to help you learn these life skills. I love your first purchase. It is bright and colorful. When you are not using it for tea, it will make a beautiful vase. Adulting is hard sometimes, take it slow, you will always be an adult, enjoy life before all the hard decisions need to be made.

When googling something keep in mind, Google is controlled by popularity, not factuality.

Super cute video!! Don't forget some of the items you want can be birthday presents from family and friends. Make an amazon wish list for that.

Remember, You don't have to go to college, there is also vo-tech schools. Which may be worth your wild, you won't be in debt so far.

your dad is a brave man to stand infront of your car

I am envious of the life you have ahead of you! You have such a good foundation, a wonderful family, a great head on your shoulders, AND a fantastic support system! I wish you nothing but adventures and joy... and money, because it helps! Maybe in the future, you can share your love with another pup - perhaps a rescue, senior, or special needs bundle who needs a big heart and happy home.

Thrifting is the best!! But you usually have to go multiple times!

On my 18th I joined the Army. With your family support I see nothing but a wonderful future for you and a tire rotation :) God Bless Nevaeh.

Do yourself a favor and make the bedroom a zero TV space. Can't wait to see what you come up with for decorations! It's time to start developing your style, but don't be surprised if it changes over the years. 😅

The bird was the 1st resident of the new apartment. Good luck living on your own, you've been given great skills so take every opportunity available.

Yard sales and secondhand stores can be good places to get furniture. It may not all match. It just has to work.😊

Love how funny your videos always are! I am glad that your Dad taught you how to change your oil (a skill everyone should know). Hope your move is successful 😊🙏🙏🙏Blessing’s

I balled my eyes out when I found out your beloved puppy passed away I know you had them for 14 years wonderful memories cherish them is there any thrift stores in your area I think those are the best than a big box store!! It brings out your creative side..❤❤❤

You are SO blessed to have parents willing and able to help you with the transition from childhood to adulthood. Flea markets, Goodwill, garage sales, estate sales and auctions are also good places to find more affordable household items. I bought my first set of furniture on consignment (back in the late 70's - Lol). I don't know if they do that anymore.

Love the lessons on car care!! All 3 of my children had to learn: how to drive a stick shift, change oil, tires, belts, filters and plugs before they could get their license. Today's car not so much on somethings, but they are great life skills that helped them as adults. Another option is yard/estate sales in your area for household items. Generally, great prices and you can find some amazing finds.

My dad taught me how to change oil, tire, antifreeze, battery, jumpstart a car and how to know what’s wrong with a car by the sound it’s making.

Tupperware pitchers are great for storing iced tea in your refrigerator. Keep shopping those thrift stores for those necessary gems to adorn your apartment. As far as furthering your education post high school, look into a 2-year school that has a curriculum in web design or videography. Certainly will help in your career as a KZfaq creator! Be well and God Bless!

Also, change the cabin air filter, usually behind the glove box. 😉

There’s always thrift stores to buy stuff too

Excitement of your first car. 18/hs graduation. Your first Apartments. These are just the beginning of your firsts. So many more to come. ❤ Enjoy the Ride.

When my wife and I got married and moved into our first apartment, we had a bedframe and mattress, a ceder chest, a 19inch color tv (old school), and exactly four plates, cups, bowls, utensils. You will do well because you have your parents and family giving you the love and life skills you need to succeed.

part of becoming an "adult" is learning the difference between needs and wants and what you have for a budget. also saving some money to be able to get by when you get hurt or something major breaks and needs replaced/fixed.

My Gawd! Groceries are awfully expensive there now. It's the "CLOWNS"!!!!😅😅 The stairs look great!😊

You have the COOLEST DAD EVER!

Used pianos are dirt cheap. Get one in Portland or Seattle. Cheap because it's become old-fashioned to have a piano in your house.

Be sure to measure those stair before you make any big purchases! You need both width and height where it is shortest distance between stairs and any ceilings. Things can get a little tricky when you have to take furniture up stairs. Still trying to imagine bringing a piano up the stairs, LOL. You are going to do great - you have awesome support and wonderful role models in your life.

Girl…live your dreams…so excited for you! Yay!!!🥳May God be w/you! Best wishes to you & your family! 👋🙏🏻🫶🇺🇸👍🏻

Best of luck in your transition....just don't be afraid to ask for advice or help from your parents as needed.... live and learn....it will all come together....Lisa

Save your Money for Piano!! have your parents furnish the apartment with the basics bed, couch, tv etc. Piano and large Pooh are for you 😁

You did a great job with the video Nevaeh. A sense of humor goes a long way. You have a future on You Tube!

Oh boy I don't wanna be 18 but its coming by so fast AHHH but hope that you have a very bright future

I hate clowns, too. Creepy. When I was little, I loved them, but Hollywood ruined that for me. Can't wait to see how you decorate your new place! Great video. You always make me laugh.

I love your comedy style. You are so lucky to have the parents that you have. That's a gorgeous place! I can't wait to see it filled with furniture. And you living your best life!

You will be fine, Mom and Dad have raised you well. By the way, your hair is gorgeous!

I just realized that your name spelled backwards is Heaven. Hah! I guess everyone else probably already knew that and I’m late to the game? 😂. Ok I’m gonna watch your video now....

Iced tea lemonade. The best

Congrats I've watched you and your family for a few years. Good luck on your next adventure. May God be with you always.

A good look at a ( todays) kid starting to plan for their future!! You got this Miss N! 🤙🐺🧙‍♂️👍

suggestion save and use old cardboard boxes bigger the better for when changing oil etc that saves floor stain and mess

The very best to you. May God be with you in your travels, please keep us informed of what you decide to do.

Speak with friends of the family , see if you can get a fridge/freezer 2nd hand, likewise bed frame, cooker/washer/dryer, buy yourself a set of pans and crockery / cutlery. cheap which will do for a few years and replace with better as time passes .In the the uk a lot of supermarkets have a basic set of kitchen utensils ,pans ,and bedding, towels etc as a student starter pack around the time college starts. Mattress buy new because its your back.

Neveah I am very happy for you and I wish you the very best in your apartment. We all have the thought when we are kids turning adults wanting to break free and get all grown up and have our own place. A great idea your parents have done building the apartment/flat above the garage for you to try it out and experience all what it takes in purchasing goods for a home etc etc. Love your videos they are so humorous and I am so sorry about Kenji he was a lovely dog. Take care and look forward to watching your journey. Your mom and dad are going to feel it their first born turning 18. Have a lovely week.

Great job on your first oil change! My dad taught my brother & me how to change the oil, pack wheel bearings, and service the transmissions on all of our vehicles, 5 or 6 at that time, before we could officially drive😂. I think he wanted a pit crew😊. Good luck on the move, you'll do fine.

If ;you like iced tea I highly recommend "Y'all Sweet Tea" It is the best! I know it says "sweet" tea, but it doesn't have sugar in it letting you decide how much is good for you. The instructions is on the back of the package. Easy peasy lemon squeezy. That's actually one of the choices along with plain, peach and raspberry. You can also get caffinated and decaf. As I said before, It also comes either in gallon size or half gallon size. I love your videos!

Thrift stores, garage sales, estate sales and FB marketplace to score some really cool deals! Retail is abominable! Also, buying gently used items saves it from going to the landfills.

Good job with the safety glasses!! You should note the mileage when you change the oil and check your owner's manual for the recommended interval to the next change, Car repair places note the mileage on a small label above your head on the windshield so you "can't miss it",

Navaeha, I'm just sorry that you are planning for this experience at a time and in a place that is very expensive. I started earning money mowing lawns before I was a teenager. And I learned to paint interiors in south Florida with my father's business. I took a job as a bag boy when I was 14 years old. I was earning minimum wage of $1.95. I'm 61 now and I've worked several different jobs. Doing something you like or have an aptitude for will help you you reach your goals. Good luck! Also in 1977 when I was 14, I paid my parents rent!

My first items came from yard sales, and a Walgreens dollar isle.... for baking, and cooking. Walgreen's probably doesn't have that anymore, though, as I am 65 now. lol You will do great, and these days go by so quickly! Enjoy them! God bless!

Happy for you neveah!!💜💜 congratulations 🎊 on all the new up coming changes wishing you the best,, and have great thrusday..🩵🩵

I'm a 2006 too, I'm going to turn 18 in May, and I'm French. Things differ so much from France to USA, to me it's a whole different world; though, wherever we are, this period of "becoming an adult" is quite intimidating and initiatory in anyway, and I understand you because I think I share some same feelings (about what this age represents; wisdom teeth removed; social pressure, etc). I'm homeschooled too (I would even say "unschooled", and it's been 10 years I'm autodidact), I'm an artist (notably singer and musician) and everyone is asking if I'll get my bachelor degree; but actually, it's not my plan, because I think I'll simply not need it. But when you are a novice in adulthood, and Responsabilies :-b, everyone open its mouth on what you should do; it's benevolent, they worry about you, but at some point they can communicate you their anxiety: it made me quite apprehend turning 18 so soon, but after all I think it won't be such a catactysm, hahaha! Anyways, your videos makes me feel less alone and spend funny moments! Thank you, and greetings from a 2006 french girl. ;-) Salut! 🇫🇷 ღ𝒾𝓁𝔞 🪶 📜 🐿 🌸

May I suggest a Fumoto oil pan drain valve. No plug removal, it replaces the plug. Just move the lever and voila, it drains. Not as fast as with the plug pulled but WAY easier and WAY less messy. Don't forget to check/change the cabin air filter as well. Go for the parental furnished apartment. If there is something you really like and want to take with you, you can buy it cheap because it is used ;) You are a clever young lady Neveah, I expect you will do well whatever it is you choose (and you are a good musician). NEED college to make a living? Not necessarily. Maybe not what YOU want to do but we need trades people and they make good money. Where would we be if all the "could have been a carpenter/plumber/electrician" people go to college and get desk jobs instead? In a tent, in the dark, with a bucket that's where.

Good on you kiddo! I made my daughter also learn how to change her own oil as part of learning to drive. The more you understand about your car, the less likely someone can "scam" you into unnecessary repairs or maintenance on your car. Keep it up, you are killing it!!!

I like that you can start to adult and not be completely alone. Just wait to feel that sense of pride as you see it all come together. Prayers for a happy wonderful transition.

Congratulations on learning how to change your oil. I think you got this having your own place thing. A lot of people I know furnish their home with the small things like dishes, bed linens, towels etc from everyone's favorite store Walmart. Letting mom and dad supply the large furniture and appliances will allow the apartment to remain furnished when you leave. Yes, being a pianist I believe you need some sort of keyboard. My dream piano is an electric baby grand in cherry wood. Wishing you the best. Wish we could see you more often on your channel.

You are a big girl👍🏼 You can do this👌🏼 Believe and it will be ok💐❤️

How does Just meats arrive, frozen or rotting? ? 🙄 Seriously thinking about it to add protein to my diet without the hassle. I can do most beef dishes and pork ribs but can dry out the best chicken. Grandfatherly advice, take what the parents will furnish in the beginning, especially furniture. You have up to 4 years to save money, decide what you really need in the beginning and grow up some. If you think 13, 16, and 18 next door to security is change, wait until you really move out and have to handle it all. You have time to adjust. Our daughter did that half way through college, got a job, moved out totally and after graduation moved from Tennessee to Salt Lake City to the corporate office. She grew up really fast, and has some emotional scars to show for it, but her mantra is... "The hard process made me the person I am today" which is a good Christian woman and mother of daughters.

well, don't tell your parents I said this because they might not like me, but anything that wears out over time you leave behind and let them pay for it, and you take the things that retain value. Mattress stays, Bed Frame you take. Couch stays, coffee table you take, dishes you take, rugs stays ... I hope this make sense. Also, I am not sure how far your closest IKEA is but when I first moved out on my own, I bought a lot of items there and now, almost 30 years later, many of the dressers, cabinets, even chairs still exist and are getting used daily.

You can prepare your snacks! It is easy and not expensive, you know what you're eating

Looking forward to video of you in your cap & gown attending your graduation.

Good luck and have fun on your very first apartment Nevaeh!

Another awesome video Naveah and the fact you are deeply missing Kenji is so understandable, Losing a loved Pet is such a challenging moment but also a very inevitable experience that we all must one day endure as many of us have. you show that you are 100% human and Kenji was all the better for the life that he shared with you growing up great great to see you learning skills from your dad. Jeremy is an awesome teacher and so is mom Melissa, you literally sound like her. It’s such an inspiring reason to be following your entire families journey. I get to watch all three of your channels yours GSL and NWOS and so following the SOUZA family is a great inspiration. You all are thank you from Regina Saskatchewan, Canada, as always.🇨🇦🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🌹🥰💯🙏🏻

It was awesome seeing you learning to change your own oil with your father’s help! That’s something that you will always have. Be sure to keep a log of your mileage when you changed it so you know when it’s due again! I hope you know just what an awesome family that you were able to grow up with!

I love watching your videos! I'm so sorry for the loss of Kenji!

I love your shots and editing at the thrift store! Very nice tour of your apartment especially the catching/releasing of your first visitor.

Keep your eye on those corners, they will escape from the bag and run away. You'll never find them. Get another bag, there are several flavors. Stack as many in your apartment as possible, in case there is a food shortage. 🙃💖🌞👑✝️😃

Great kid kiddo😀 You're well on your way too freedom and responsibility....YEAH!!!

You are funny. Good luck in your future as an adult. You have great role models.

Kenji was such a calming force in your (and your parents) videos! While I made mild fun of his appearance on KZfaq, it was 100% for fun! You are facing the problem of equipping your apartment with the expectations you have after living with a home space equipped over decades. Give yourself many years to accumulate the stuff! And one of life's big lessons: we have _too_ _much_ _stuff_ . I have a garage full of once-precious stuff I now need to get rid of. Hopefully most of it can be recycled or donated away.

Just a couple things: There is also a filter inside the car (probably behind glove compartment) that filters the air from the outside for your heater/AC. Funny smells can come from that after a while; When shopping for initial set up, think need not want. It'll help in your budgeting; Now is when life gets bouncy, like a yo-yo. Be prepared! lol You are VERY fortunate in your upbringing. Even though we've only seen a little of that, the results you all are showing give ample examples of what you've learned. I do believe you have been blessed and pray blessing continue through your life. Be strong. lol

You’ll never know what size your apartment will be…I bought things for one that didn’t fit in next…just a heads up do dishes pots pans vacuum silverware glasses etc…things you need.

If you have a dollar store near you, you can get dishware, silverware, bath needs and some food

Advise from an old Grandma. Learn the difference between WANT and NEED. Good luck and have fun!

Nevaeh, you have a wonderful Dad who is teaching you about cars. My Dad never told me that the oil needed changing in my car. He asked me about and I was like what are you talking about. When you do not educate your children about these things, they will never know otherwise. Anyway, my first car got its first oil change at 25,000 miles. Cherish your Dad.

Your vlogs are always fun to watch. Congrats on making steps towards your own ice-tea'd future! 🥰

Nevada it's good you have a father that shows you how to maintain your car. Nevada you are blessed. The video was great. God bless your channel.

Neveah, I love the way you are approaching this big change in your life! I am a senior citizen now, and I can tell you that my entire life might have been very different for me if I had approached this change with a plan. (a plan is defined as something that changes the moment you contact the enemy! 🤣) Keep it up and start looking at places like Walmart (ugh) and look for some pleasantly pre-owned. My wife is big on used pianos. They are frequently very cheap because no one in that household plays it anymore or no one wants to spend the money to move one.. Look around, you might be very surprised and pleased. Just take some strong guys (plural!) and a trailer when you go pick it up. Best of luck and I am looking forward to your journey!

It’s an exciting time, I remember my first apartment and the fun/anxiety of decorating on a budget. Enjoy every moment ❤

So sad to have a beloved pet fur baby pass bit remember the good times and know they are with us even if they are not physically

FYI K&N Air Filters and Oil filters used with Royal Purple high performance extend the life of your engine. Increases mpg, and horse power. The really neat technology of the air filter is it only requires to ne cleaned every 50K miles never have to purchase them again. I recently installed the cabin filter for insode thr car.

My gosh GF food is so ridiculously expensive! I’m allergic to brown rice too which is limiting 🤷‍♀️

Make every day count Nevaeh, enjoy it.

Glad to hear you are changing th oil on the Urabus or it would be a Urabroken! Great job!

The transition period from childhood to adulting is an exciting and confusing time. Learning to do things for yourself i.e. maintaining, and choosing what to put into an apartment can be taxing, just embrace these experiences. You have a few months before moving so make a list of what your essentials will be and complete that list first. Then do the decorating part. All those small little details can be done after you move in. Don't rush so that you can enjoy the experience. This was another good video. Keep up the good job!

Great video today! Love watching all that you are learning.

I just saw a white piano on market place in Bonners Ferry !

Is where any thrift stores in your area to buy things for the apartment?

y'all got enough wood in the backyard to make your own furniture. there's probably a make/paint your own pottery place around there somewhere, too.

You are amazing! Such a joy and thank you for allowing us the opportunity to watch you grow!

Start off slow with the bugger items. Then, decide on the smaller item as u go along. That way, u can figure out what it is that you need to have to balance it out. Take some time. Cause u start buying things and then end up not liking it cause it doesn't look right.

Good luck Nevaeh!
