HEY! EVERYONE WHO KNOWS ME!!!!! READ THIS!!!!!![[EDIT]]

"We are made to persist."
Do I have your attention?
Good.
As of July 23, 2011, I will be relocating to Carlsbad, New Mexico, INDEFINITELY.
mitsozuka has engineered this bit of mayhem with me. Perhaps it will do some good.
I'll try to be back for the holidays. If you want to see me sometime before Christmas, you need to do it before next Thursday.
I'll miss you guys. You know who you are.

Oh, Also:
I have a second sign of the impending apocalypse:
I've decided to give up smoking for a week. It's day five and I haven't killed anyone.
It's really weird not having my hazy, toxic security blanket.
It's incredibly liberating to know I can function without it.
So....
Why the Hell am I doing this?
1.) Mitso is my friend. I love him and I want him to be happy.
2.) I need a change of scenery, badly.
3.) A less toxic environment will help me to sort out my priorities, asess my goals, and evaluate my life direction.
4.) My mother will fare better without the financial strain I represent.
5.) I need to do something big and scary. I could compare this to the Terrasque.
6.) Clearly, what I am doing here is simply not working. I have tried and tried. I know exactly what needs to happen to make it work. This is not an admission of defeat, it is a tactical withdrawal for the purpose of allocating resources.
7.) I need to find out if I can run a business successfully.
8.) I need to find out if I can run myself successfully.
9.) I have an opportunity to do something I have always wanted to do and I'm going to take that opportunity: I'm going to try and build a vehicle.
10.) Ari. If I can sustain my basic needs under my own income and get my hands on a sustainable vehicle, I can finally do what I've wanted to do for four and a half years now.
11.) ME. Even if this whole thing explodes in my face (it won't, but parts of it will) I need to face the things about this trip I am terrified of and come out on top. Every failure I encounter is something I learn from. I will learn a lot....
I can't come up with nearly that many reasons not to, unless I name every person I'm leaving behind that I probably haven't seen in months anyway; no offense to anyone who lives in my town.
Good.

Noooomi :c
*hugs* Thanks though, I miss you too. You should harass me on IMs moar.
I wonder if my mother knows about that, gigantic fan that she is..... c.c
I'm doing it because I need a change. I'm not getting anywhere here at home and I've been fighting to get on top of things for years now.
Chaos is delicious. My favorite manifestation of it is dark chocolate with cayenne pepper ;3
hmmmm.....
I'm taking this shit WAY too seriously....
be safe in you're travels!
As much as I will miss you, and pains me to say this, this is likely for the best. You have helped me out through the years, and been there for me, and now it's time you got your own life in order. If this move is what it'll take to do that, as I'm sure is the case, then go for it. I will try to see you every chance i can when you come back to visit. I will strive to see you before you leave, too, if only to hang out with you and other friends for a few hours. It'll be nice to give you a friendly send off.
Painful as it'll be to be without you there in person once in a while, And as much as I'll miss you, I wish you the best, Nomi. Just remember to keep in touch, or I'll have to find a way to get out there and kick your butt! XD
Nah, I absolutely need to have my life turned on its head for a while. I have to put myself into a situation where I'll be forced to adapt. Thank you for the sentiments, I appreciate them, and when I come back, you'll get your chance to try and make good on all these threats of kicking my ass I'm getting from you lately....
And I had better see progress from this whelp who calls me teacher. If I am to undergo yet another period of intense proving and refining, I had better see you following my example. You obey others when they collar you, but you'll listen to me because I do no less than I ask of you. I ask you only to make good of your potential as I am trying to do. Do As I Do.
It would please me immensely to see you do so when I come back.
Take care and keep us updated >^w^<
I mostly just need a better environment to work in, one that isn't slowly killing me or driving me insane, to see more painting and drawing and mailleing and such happen for me. I need to get a lot of stuff sorted out, and it will be so, so much easier to do this in the desert.
I don't think I would find it easier to do in the desert, though that is me and my work environment. I hope to see more of your stuff! Will you be able to set up a new work station for yourself
Do you happen to use skype?
And yah, completely forgot about using skype XD probably should see about logging onto that one more often <.<; I'm assuming that I have your Skype already?
Humidity and, oddly, salt content.
Fyger_Fyre at hotmail
and the skpe name is fyger.fyre
and salt content doesn't surprise me :P
I've been planning to take this trip for a long time now, I just finally got the date set.
