Lately the only thing that has been on my mind is what it would be like to live somewhere else. I have grown restless living in the same town my whole life. I have eaten at every restaurant; been to every bar, and shopped at all the same stores……I need a change.
I am trying to look at this from a “realistic” point of view as my dad would say, because you can’t just quit your job, pick up your whole life and move somewhere new……..can you?
Lately I have been trying to come up with a plan on how to do this, I have been researching potential cities, scouting out jobs and apartments in those areas, and hardest of all trying to figure out how much money I need to save up before this actually can happen and how long it will actually take me.
The places I would most want to move to are as follows:
Seattle, Washington
Oahu, Hawaii
San Diego, California
Boston, Massachusetts
Chicago, Illinois
Denver, Colorado
Anchorage, Alaska
Bangor, Maine
I realize how crazy this seems, with the economy we live in, and Oklahoma being one of the cheapest and most secure places to live but I feel like I am moving into adulthood way too fast. I graduated and went right into the work force. I am 24 years old and have already developed the same routine my parents have, of working, coming home, making dinner, watching my shows, reading and going to bed. THAT IS NOT OKAY!!! I mean I never went to school out of state, I never took a semester off, or took any time for myself to explore the world and explore myself as a person and I feel like that is starting to catch up with me.
What to do……What to do…..
