The End
I'm moving back home.
I tried living on my own for awhile and I've decided it's best to cut my losses. My position at the bank is unimportant and ultimately not worth the fight. I had found a person to move in, but unfortunately, it never came to fruition. Rather than continuing to lose half the rent and nearly my paycheck, I think it's best to discard a job that is truly not for me and discard a living siutation that exploded in my face. I could never have forseen being stranded by my roommates; I expected us as friends to mingle with others and form friendships with many people. The bank is not an ideal place to make friends; and living alone, it's really hard to kindergarten-ish "Wanna be my friend?". I met people at the tennis courts and that worked for tennis; but in my situation, I'm the guy who lives upstairs, works at a bank, and pays rent. Only 1st year in the dorm did I really make friends in college outside of class. As you move in with people, you befriend them, and generally not so much those who live below you, to the right, etc. I really miss friends. I miss my friends; I miss enjoying work; I miss having someone to meet at the courts; I miss my parents. ...sadly, I miss TV lol.
Had I just gotten a roommate, I could've furnished the place and gotten cable, etc. I could've duked it out and fought for a reason to stay. I stayed because of the job, and because the job allowed me to pay for rent. I expected to get someone in here and I expected to befriend people my own age. I have failed in every aspect of that attempt. People at tennis meet for tennis; why welcome in one person to an already established group. I should've gone to church or something to make friends. Oi, I should've done a lot of things differently.
Well, it's the end. My last day at work is Friday the 16th; and my move-out day is the 15th of December. I have a month to move and once I'm at home, I can relax, breath, watch freagin TV, visit friends, play tennis, enjoy life. I can also find a job to pay for personal expenses and help with food for the house. I can have the comforts of home again. I need this. I need people. And I know where my people are.
