I am SO enthusiastic! Daniel and I leave Anchorage for Boston in less than
28 days! We're not entirely sure where we'll be living or working, but we are
well on our way to figuring it out. He has been working a lot of overtime and
I'm still working for Title Wave full time, so we should be alright with money.
I don't anticipate having any trouble finding a job in Boston, it's just a
matter of it being easier to do it once I'm there, although I'm pursuing a few
things online at the moment. It's hard to believe I'm really leaving again,
finally! I feel really confident about this venture out of Anchorage and making
it work. Pretty much everything I hear about Massachusetts is fascinating and
exciting, so it will be a blast to explore everything.
Most of what I will really miss about Anchorage are the people here I love.
It's been a wonderful opportunity to live with my paternal grandparents again,
and one of my aunts has been here too, which is nice. I am leaving behind two
best friends, Dana (whom I've been close to since middleschool), and Mike
(originally from Boston and now loving Alaska). I'll miss them a lot, but I'm
sure we'll keep in touch. Most of the time I've been with Daniel, we've been
playing Dungeons & Dragons 3.5 with a group of his friends, and Dana joined
us about a month ago. I will definitely miss spending time playing with and
learning from this group of funny, smart people. Except for Dana and me, all the
members of this group are men, and every one of them has been patient, generous,
and kind toward me, and I'm really glad I got to know them.
I am feeling passionate about my intellectual life. I have a big goal of
creating an alternative learning environment, and I have been working on
learning about things that will help me build that. I have also been training
myself to write on a regular basis, good for many reasons. For anyone serious
about changing their life, I highly recommend Tony Robbin's book, Awaken the
Giant Within. Never have I read anything so personally empowering, and I
am really taking it to heart.
If you couldn't tell, I feel supremely alive, and I'm not letting this
feeling go away. Let the great changes continue!
