If ever there were a story of more woe...
than Lyssa trying to land her Romeo. Okay, so that's not so much what's going on, but whatev.
Alright, so here's the deal: I need to get off this island. Hawaii is beautiful and the people here are unlike those from anywhere else, but there's no real opportunity. The jobs here are primarily low-paying, tourist-related jobs and the cost of living is so high that any "decent" paying job is usually accompanied by a second job. So what's the verdict? Hopefully get the job with HPD, suffer through the next year and a half to two years and then hot tail my rear end back to the mainland. It's just such a bummer living here...Maybe I'll move somewhere fun...like Indianapolis. I've always wanted to go there. Or maybe Texas! That'd be pretty sweet. Who knows? I miss home. I haven't been back in three years and to be honest, I miss homegrown avocados, Mexican food, and drivin' on the 15. But more than anything else, I miss my friends, and a few more than others mind you, but still...I miss seeing my grandparents "just because" and takin' the drive along all the Fallbrook roads like Mission, Reche and passing and saying "Hey, that's where Nickerson's Nursery used to be" or "Look! The pumpkins are getting big" while passing Bodacious Pumpkins. *sigh* Hawaii's nice, but I'm over it. Someone save me!
