I kind of understand where you're coming from...my mom does the whole "if you live in my house you'll follow my rules" thing too, and a lot of my friend's moms are the same way. I'd say your best shot is to move out asap! It's great that mom is looking out for you, but she needs to understand that you need to learn to look out for yourself. You're in college! If there's absoloutely no way that you can move out by next semester, I'd recommend some family counseling for you and your mom. It might help your mom realize that she's being kind overbearing and that she does need to back off a little and realize that you're all grown up now. However, I think ultimately you are going to have to be the one to take the initiative and to "cut the apron strings" because it doesn't sound like she's going to let go. Good luck!
