In one of my more earlier submissions, I mentioned moving to Savannah, Georgia. Initially, I thought of this as a romantic joke - I mean, really, can Jews like myself survive the humidity? There's a reason why I've only been to South Beach a handful of times in my life. But now, the more that I think about it, I believe it to be the best idea I've ever had.
Los Angeles is simply everything I expected it to be. I'm relaxed, calmed by the Pacific Ocean breeze on the PCH, spending my nights drinking wine with friends and eating delicious caprese salads, and spending the occassional night out. I expected this all.
What I didn't expect, truthfully, was how unhappy it would make me.
Some people thrive when in a routine. They enjoy knowing what's coming next and they need the comfort of preparation. Me? I'm never prepared, I like not knowing a damn thing, and I appreciate spontaeinity. Where better to find this then to move to a completely unfamiliar place?
I hope to make this move within the next year or so. I will get my BA first and if Grad school is in the cards, then I will try and find a college that coincides with my southern comfort.
the other night, while chatting with a girl that i'd just met from chicago who is studying at fidm, we both came to the conclusion that the united states may not be for us. don't get me wrong, i love the good ol' us of a, but if mccain is elected then the country will spiral deeper into social and financial ruin.
so many options, so MUCH time.
