its not as carefree and exciting as the title suggests. HA! gotcha. well now that ur here, im sorta trippin out about this. who gives a fuck about some dude on the internet's problems right? but i lived in colorado for six years, experienced it, made a couple freinds, went to high school, worked a little bit, had some good times, some bad ones, and now i feel like i pretty much know what all it has to offer and i dont really like it. i was raised in california, so i know its tight and theres a shitload of cool stuff out here, but im still fuggin scared. so many things could go wrong. this could all flop and i could end up homeless. i could end up being mildly succesful and going to school and working and shit, but then never really amount to anything. i aint worried about making freinds, thats easy enough, but what if i dont get close to any of them? is 21 too old to become part of a new community? do people still make good close freinds at this age or is that a younger thing? have any yall done somthing like this? moving thousands of miles away without really knowing how its gonna go? isnt it fuggin scary? did i mention that im tripping the fuck out?
Make sure your credit is good enough to get a place. Make sure you have enough money to live for a few months while you find a job. Never too late to join a new community.
it is really good to hear that last part. i really need to beleive that. luckily, my grandparents are letting me stay with them while i work and save over here. i already have 1300$, but i obviously need more. i have no credit. is that bad?
Not totally sure about this but I remembered hearing that if you just get a credit card and rarely use it (like spending the minimum on the card) you can get a real nice credit score over a couple of years. That's what I plan on doing
commit to your dreams, commit to your goals, and commit to your happiness. Do it with love, and you will be just fine.
you guys are right. y'know, ive come to a conclusion. even if this doesnt go as well as i want it, at least ill be trying somthing instead of sitting around and playing it safe. thats how you end up being a working stiff with no good stories to tell. i feel like: faliure gives you knowlege and experience. success gives you reward and confidence. apathy doesnt give you any of these things, but takes them away. i could fail and learn, succeed and be rewarded, or be apathetic and get nothing.
