Update/State of Affairs

Hey guys. I know I haven't been active here that much. Lots of shit has been going down and uhh yeah I'm here to explain all of it.
Soooo first of all I'm moving away from home for the first time due to college and I'm more nervous as hell than excited. I found a place for rent where I'll be moving in next week. The place is idea, right across the street to campus and next to the free shuttle that'll take me to the BART in Hayward where I can use it to go to work. The rent is also very cheap $350ish a month BUT the only downside is that it's a one bedroom one bathroom apartment that I'm sharing with 5 other people. So I don't have my own room and I'm sharing the living room with 2 other guys so I won't have privacy at all. I mean I know what I was getting into since it's college and all but I'm slowly starting to regret it. The dorms are too expensive even with financial aid $12 K a year. I'm not on the lease and I can leave at anytime with of course one month notice and what not. I want to find something affordable and I want my own room but with it being California I don't think I'll find the chance. Most of my financial aid is going to paying off school and with work well I don't think I can make enough money with rent/bills/school/food/ect and I don't wanna take out any loans I'm not sure I can pay off.
I wanna give everything a try and if I fail I fail and pick myself back up and then I'm left with a few options, Stay with parents or go out of state and go somewhere cheaper I just don't know where and put my education on hold until I can become stable. It's hard and I've worked so long for this it's just I'm not so sure of my financial stability with all of this. My parents can't help me at all cause they have their own problems so I feel stuck and I don't want to be a burden to any of my friends.
tldr; I'm moving out from home to finish up college, scared for my financial stability, living situation is ideal but no privacy what so ever, may have to go back home and possibly move out of state if I fail.
But yeah that's what's going on. Thought that you guys should know what's been going on with me and that I have to vent out all of this frustration. For those who read thanks for listening.

I hope everything works out for you and you find a place more suitable to your situation. Sharing that amount of space between that many other people is sure to have heads butting even when someone doesn't mean to.
