I feel like this is never going to happen.
I mean, I can’t move just yet. But I feel like when I finally can, I won’t. I feel trapped.
How to move away
It made me
Relieved 
"I realized one day how fed up with my life I was, and I knew that I needed to make a drastic change, so, I left, and it was easier than I ever expected."
How I did it: I have been toying with the idea of leaving for quite a few years, but I could never get up the courage. My mind was always full of what ifs:
What if I can't make any new friends?
What if I can't find a job?
What if leaving my family means not seeing them anymore?
What I realized was that this world is full of uncertainties, and we can either stay in a solid, boring ball of safety, or we can get up and take some risks. So I took some huge ones. People said it was stupid, that I would surely end up homeless, that I couldn't possible make it alone.
It was very rash, all went very fast. It was maybe two weeks before I moved that I put my notice in at work and told my landlord I was leaving. I completely threw it all up in the air, hoping that it would all fall into place, that I would be free from the place I had been trapped for so many years.
Now, here I am. I have ia gorgeous house. I have found a job, too, and sure, it's nothing glamorous, but it pays the bills, and I don't hate it.
I have accomplished my ultimate goal, and now, I am unstoppable. Watch out world, I'm on the loose.
Lessons & tips: You will never be able to do anything unless you take chances. Moving to a foreign town is a big thing, possibly life changing, and it can be very scary. Remember to keep your friends and family close, because they will always just be a phone call away if you feel scared, or you just don't know what to do.

I’ve always said I want to move away from Michigan. It’s nice in the summer, and the beaches on Lake Michigan are awesome, but I despise snow and wintertime.
I see myself moving maybe to Chicago at first and then eventually somewhere warm. I’m thinking Cali, Florida, SC, or Texas, but we’ll see how things play out :)

I left home and joined the miltary…twice!! i havent seen my family now for 2 years, and it hurts. i have a neice Ive never met and a nephew that is turning 2 this year. It sucks. If you are going to move away make sure there isnt anything there holding you back. Cause once you leave, its hard as heck to try to get the money and time to get back home for visits. Luckily Im going home for Christmas….pretty excited asbout it!! : ) I miss seeing my family.

I’ve been talking about wanting to get out of ohio for years. Not that there’s anything wrong with Ohio, it’s just not that great either. But in two days i’m finally moving away to charlotte, NC. and I can’t wait.
