The Oasis
Woah, this is actually pretty big!
After the hash muffin incident, I randomly sent an email to Rhys asking if there were any spots open at the Oasis. I didn't expect anything to come of it, I sort of assumed there were no open rooms in the Oasis. I guess I just wanted to see what happened if I sent the email, almost as a cathartic release I didn't expect anything to come from. Well today Aurora called me and we talked about it. There are 2 rooms opening up. They also desire more females, because a lot of the ladies have moved out. We talked about it for a bit on the phone, I was still in a state of thinking it wouldn't really happen. I was just surprised to actually have this presented as a real option. I've never really considered leaving as a real option.
I don't totally know how I feel. I almost feel like I need to make a big pro con list. After talking about it and thinking about it more I'm excited by the idea and definitely want to consider it as a real possibility. It is actually pretty scary to think about leaving the forest house. I've lived here for so long. I've developed a lot of my personality around this house. A lot of my social identity was formed here. It'll be a big change, but my huge attachment to it (despite a lot of unhealthy aspects of it) has always been a major concern, and something I'd like to transcend. The Oasis would be so different. Who would I be at the Oasis? Obviously still me, but what aspects of my personality would it bring out? I think I have an industrious self and a very slothy self and this house brings out my slothy self. Living at the Oasis might inspire me to live a more healthy and fulfilling lifestyle. A lot of my energy probably gets wasted living in such chaos.
Lots to think about.
