INDEPENDANT, STRONG, INDIVIDUAL ....
I swore I was all those things, at least I thought I was...
Uprooting your life and moving to a new city, new state, new apartment, new job ... is 100% SCARY! Not the scary like you are sure you are going to get mugged and stuck in the ghetto kind of scary, but scary like you have just lost your entire support system that could phyically hug you, kiss you, hold you, and tell you everything is going to be ok. No, that support system only exists via telephone and man it is FREAKIN' SCARY!
I talk to friends at home and still enjoying their last week of christmas break and they sound so carefree and calm (because I am dialing digits as promised!) and then there is me, here, alone with my dog who hates it here and me wondering "what the fuck was I thinking!" I hear their voices and my eyes get a litle watery, and mom tells me some obsolete bit of info about the horses and I start to cry...its disgusting, but I totally miss home. Apparently I am not as rock solid as my little brain liked to admit, but oh well...
I am not letting this get to me though... My BFF from the summer when I was here called and I cannot wait to hit the town with her. I have other friends in this area as well that I am connecting with. I'll be damned if I back down from this opportunity without a fight! I am working for one of the premier children's hospitals in the UNITED STATES! My job had over 1000 aplicants and they picked ME! I am here, I am happy about, and I am gonna rock this town!!
I was ready for a change, unfortunately all kinds of changes decided to happen in the week I was packing to move. Christmas, Moving, Boy, New Years, Move Permanently...Man this is tough, but doable, and I'm doin' it!
Bear with my Ohio, I am here and staying! No more tears from me, it may be rough but I'm going to be thankful for every piece of it!
