I want to get away from this place, maybe when I finish up the 2 classes I have left in school, which will be by December of this year. I will move to Seattle. Perhaps it will be temporary, or even permanent. I don’t know anyone over there, only went there once, but all I know is that I want to be there, because I know it will make me happy. 12 months ago

Four years later:

Yes, I really like Seattle. Moving here was a good idea. I don’t want to move back to Sacramento. I’ve met most of my major goals for the time frame; Got here, got work, got state residency, got into school, got a degree, successfully graduated and am now employed in my new field, and this town is just beautiful.

Sometimes it doesn’t feel like I have the energy or will to get much done, but when I look at the past four years since I set this goal, and other related goals, I realize that I can do it. 20 months ago
