Moving again
12 years ago
So in about 2 weeks, I'm moving out of San Leandro.
We are still trying to secure a place in the Bay Area. (around Daly City) However it doesn't look too good. Prices are high as hell, and one job + livestream isn't going to cut it.
Sending out applications, emailing everywhere, talking on the phone with career aid people and possible employers.... none of it seems to change my situation soon enough. I have a 4 year degree in game art & design, yet it seems I am incapable of finding work soon enough.
So near the end of the month, there's going to be an inevitable cut off. I wont have access to a computer, but it may last for more than 5 days if it turns out me and
will be leaving California altogether. Rent elsewhere is just so much lower.
Trouble is...even though I've been saving money from all the work recently, we don't know if we can afford that final moving van + the gas to take us safely to our destination. So please forgive if I seem a tad worried on livestream today.

not a lot... thinking of renting a minivan to just carry our essentials. getting rid of everything else most likely .

Well, a case of beer and/or a few sketches might find you someone local with a van.

I wish my art were that valuable x3

Well, who's to say you won't find someone who likes furry art, drives a van of holding, lives in Cupertino, has a purple tentacle-cat as a character... I mean sure, it's a pretty unlikely combination, but there must be at least one.

Though, to be clear, it would be if you're moving in the bay area. Ain't gonna drive you to Indiana.

My not-so-slim body can cover the gas cost if it can help you to move to your new home.
