Change is good. I changed my hair. Dark. Sideways bangs. Different. Florida. This place is way out of my ordinary. I like having sunshine. Aside from my mom and brother constantly butting heads, I feel calm here. Downtown Orlando might just be that place I've been looking for. You know-the one where I'll go to school for a couple years, joining my peers in their quest to find money. No wait, I've learned that college is more than finding a career, it's the experience that should make you closer to "whole".. I want that. I want homework. the experience. Being here is nice. I'm increadibly sick of working minimum wage jobs, just trying to finish through the day instead of enjoying it. If I don't have enough money to eat, at least I could be expanding my mind with an empty belly all while getting one step closer to deminishing just that. I know I'll end up in California. Be it state college or just work...I know it. I'm over the stage some people go through during the first few months of moving out where I avoid calling home or being anywhere near that-it used to be like a warzone for me. No way could you have gotten me to walk into that. I'm over it. I realize my family's here to support me, not throw granaides. I feel ready for the city life. I love this place. I go back home on Sunday. I have a ton of desicions to make....the clock's ticking.
