It's strange to think about how everyone in small(smallish..) towns mocks the fact that our local news is super lame, yet why would you want the news occurring locally to you to be about crazy crimes and bad things happening. I would say that "Purse stolen and then found at the mall" is a pretty lame news story yeah, but I would rather read something like that than "Another 2 men murdered at the mall, more at 11". I absolutely do mock it all the time, but I'm pretty glad this area of the country doesn't have super devastating things happening all the time. It kind of makes it so we can focus on more localized and specific issues in the area.....or at least, maybe it should
Just a thought.
Thinking about that kind of makes it harder to try to leave this area. I almost wish I grew up somewhere else, so I could come live someplace like maine when I was older. But then not at all, because I'd be an entirely different person if that was the case.
I don't know, weird how that works. I do love the small town'ness of maine yet I don't really enjoy being in the exact town I grew up in. Maybe I need to get over my "never going to move further north" issue and do that. Even though that would be a terrible career move, moving FURTHER away from any legit potential job. I think doing just a semester in some other part of the country would be perfect, especially considering I can't make up my mind with where I want to live...ever/I just feel the need to change everything in my life about every 6 months or so. I'm not amazing at following through with things, but I really am trying to follow through with this...it seems like it would have the potential to be one of the better decisions I've made, at least in my college career.
Also..just curious
who else still uses LJ?..I'm pretty sure I just use it to rant at this point, with the assumption not really anyone reads it.
