Move to the east coast

It is gorgeous here!! I love it!

I want to move from Seattle to the mid-east coast this fall…:)?

I’ve lived in California my whole life. I want to live somewhere with real seasons, and be super cold and cozy in the winter. My boyfriend and I are thinking Boston would be a good location.

until I fly out to Providence. Sure, it won’t be my “permanent home”, but Brown University will be the closest I have to one for the next four years.

I’ve lived in California my whole life, except for the summers I’ve worked in National Parks, and now that I don’t have COLLEGE to go back to, nor a steady job, and now that I’m SINGLE, it’s time to be more adventurous! I LOVE california, but I really want to try living on the east coast, see what it’s like. I can always come back to California, it’s time to branch out!

I miss the west coast terribly! But that’s expected since that’s all I’ve ever known. Things are different but it’s a nice change. I’m seeing and getting to do things that I otherwise may not have been able to had I not moved here. I might end up on the west coast eventually down the road but in the meantime I’m situated decently on the east to keep myself sane.

This is actually an accomplishment of note. I’m feeling a sudden burst of pride, breaking through worries about jobs and friends and graduate school. But I’ve a place to sleep, a street to wander down, a local bar to frequent. And although I’m thousands of miles from my birthplace, Oregon will wait for me. (She’s that kind of girl)

In light of this goal, I am currently staying with a friend in the woods in tiny Holland Massachusetts, awaiting a week of training which will hopefully culminate in my placement somewhere nearby. I’m learning that nearby here is often another state, but I am not overly picky. I am overly nervous. But all my possesions are located in the living room and the backseat of a subaru, and I’ve yet to learn any buddist lessons about abandoning a connection to things, despite their impermanance.

I am from Arizona myself….and went to college on the East Coast three years ago. I love it….it’s an amazing experience. Things are so different here! We have no idea out West what these crazy people are really like! Hehe!

Have a plan. Going with friend from work to start a business. Going sometime in December 05 to April 06
