I want to get away.

My family is really odd. My mom never went to college because she got pregnant with me and just decided to deal with the hand she got dealt. I'm the third eldest grandchild and neither one of the older two went to college and they're in their twenties and still live at him with, excuse this, mediocre jobs. I want to be different than the rest of them. I live in Arizona and my best friend lives in Ohio and she has a great relationship with both of her parents and she wants me to move to Ohio so I can go to school there. I'm scared to death. What if I can't do it and I freak out? And worse, what if I become like my Aunt and just grow to hate my family and look down on them? I want to be successful but, what if I'm just destined to have a job at Wal-Mart and live with my Grandma forever?

Is It Normal?

  • It is life, everyone wants to go at the age. I would advise you to do it. BUT now this is the most important thing. If you read this please remember. You can do anything anywhere. Do you like to write? Do you like to take photos? Paint, sing, play an instrument? Good with your voice? Think about what you're good at and just become great at it. That can be done in any state in the nation. Or any country in the world. No one can hold you back from that forever. If they try then you start to run and get to a safe place where you can do that. They are non-existent within your future unless you sit still.
