…and honestly it both sucked and was amazing. i went to indiana from the east coast and between the ldr i had at the time and seeing all my friends have fun without me, i felt i was missing out on so much. but i also felt so independent and pushed myself to make friends despite being so introverted. i had an amazing time with my new friends, but we don’t really keep in touch anymore.
nowadays i would love to live in another country for a few years or move to the city. but my friends from high school stuck around and i wouldn’t leave them behind unless they left first.
but whatever you do, probably don’t move to indiana. there isn’t too much to do in indiana

Im so glad youve found a job that you love. One of the biggest risks i took was moving to the other side of the country, alone and away from family and friends, for school. It was really hard at first, but I think ive learned so much and grown in a lot more ways than if i had stayed at home. Right now I couldnt be happier. Even though its been years, my family and friends back home and I are still close, even if we arent able to talk or hang out as frequently. Wishing you all the best <3

Don’t get me wrong, I love travel and I’m game to befriend everyone, but i was clearly made for home and mountains and books and isolation, none of which I found in Florida.
I’m looking forward to spending time with my family man. It’s a small life after all.

i've got an internship which starts in september which i'm super excited about but it's meant i've had to move back with my parents till this time next year. and while i love being back at home, it can be very suffocating cause of the severe loss of agency,
plus my core friend group at home is more or less extinct as well as the plans we made for summer. but a smaller circle has come out of it, we see each other once a week which is really lovely and we've been on the arts and crafts grind recently. on the days i don't see them or my other friends, i feel ridiculously adrift. july was like a big sleepwalking episode just a very inert atmosphere so i've decided to make august more memorable, which has been going alright so far.
i haven't got a summer job so i've just been spending and now i'm kind of worried about money but like that's a constant worry i guess and just nervous overall about the future in general cause of all the upheaval. not sure which masters to do, if i should even bother etc. some of my friends have moved and are moving abroad for uni or just live pretty far away from me. it's been an ok summer so far but yeah idk.

i feel like so many times when i’ve gotten disheartened or uncomfortable when trying/learning something new or
encountering an unexpected situation, ive just mindlessly strayed away. the reality is they were opportunities for growth and i neglected to think twice about it
