Devious Journal Entry

Well...

I have recently dropped out of college and am trying to bring my problems here in Pittsburgh to an end. Beside the money problems, it became pretty clear to me that because of how I have changed here(mentally and everything), I'm not really meant for this right now. This place is meant for kids who don't have to work and have mommy and daddy fitting the bill for everything so they can focus on school and don't have to be subjected to the vile cold of this city on a daily basis. I'm not exactly bashing those types (and there are plenty around here), but I am a little jealous of them.

Now what's going to happen is that I am going to move into the little basement at work and live there for awhile and try to figure some things out while I save all of the money I make. Some options are me going to California with my sister to get into a potentially better situation, military, or..stay here and get into a hella cheaper school. I have yet to decide. All I know now is that I need money.

I have also spoken to my father recently. We had a nice long conversation about what I've been doing. Although things have been terrible between us from the day I was born to only recently, I know I can trust him for a no bullshit and relatively educated opinion. He says that going to California with my sister would probably be best. I want my relationship with my family to improve (only those members who want it to) since it has been completely shredded. For that to happen, I have to be honest with them. Me being gay is a pretty big secret that I didn't want many of them to hear, but I do now. If anything good came from this city, it is that it has made me more honest.

So, to recap, out of school, hate the north, planning on next step, trying.

Wow wondered why I hadn't heard from you. If you need some help you know you can send me a 911 hon. I know how rough it is and you are right that school is rough on kids who don't have someone footing the bill.

You have to do what is right for you and don't let /anyone/ tell you differently. Also don't let this make you feel you don't have any talent or are a failure.

If your sister has room for you that might be the best choice but don't make it out of desperation. Make it because it feels right in your gut. You are a strong guy and I know you can turn this into a much better situation than what it appears.

aww man dude. im pretty much in the same situation but at least my dad can help me a little bit.

money is probably the thing i hate most in this world...mainly cause i dont have any i guess..the whole world is based around it and its kinda sickening.

*hugs* i hope you find your way man. just as i hope i eventually find mine.

i dropped out of college after first quarter because of the money as well :/

that would explain why I have heard from you in a while. I'm not mad or anything, I just wish you would've told me all this before all the fuss about the income tax refund issues came about.
But you do what you need to do. if you want to go to Cal then go. do what you feel is best for you.
I can't stop you or stand in your way, it's your life. I'm glad your father is supporting you about this. that's how it should be.

It's easier to criticize, then to create.
