Been thinking a lot lately about where I may find myself living in the near future. I've lived in the Bay Area of CA since I was born, and it's time for a change. The older I've gotten, the more I've realized that I don't belong here. I've been looking at some of my options, but nothing is truly jumping out at me.
First there's Orlando, FL. I have 2 friends who live there, and one of them says he will be looking for a new roommate sometime in August. This would be really cool, and there's lots to do in the city I'm sure, but it gets really freakin' hot there, and I'm just not a big-city person at heart. When I was thinking of where to live, I kept picturing living out in the country. Ever since I spent a month in Georgia last year, I've come to love and appreciate living away from the city.
Which brings me to the next option, Georgia. My dad has his house out there which is super-nice, but he's looking to sell his property and leave pretty soon, so I don't know if keeping that will be an option. I don't really know if I would want to live there anyway, at least in the community where my Dad lives. It also gets really hot here.
Another place I was looking at, North Carolina. I know a few people who live there and I know I would have fun. From what my friend tells me, it sounds like exactly what I'm hoping for - away from a big city. But I'm not sure what's really out there, what kind of jobs, etc.
Of course there's always Washington, and then the not-so-far Santa Cruz area. The weather is much better with these places, but I don't really know anybody in either place.
Well I didn't really accomplish anything by writing this down, but hopefully I'll be able to come up with something near my birthday. I hope I can move out before the end of August..
