Huge, Life Changing Decisions
I am quitting my job and moving to Wilmington.
Insane! Do I have a job in Wilmington? I get that question a lot...the answer is not yet. I had an interview and a phone call for an interview and they both blew me off because I wasn't living there already so I couldn't start immediately like they needed. SO, I will move to Wilmington at the end of this month, since that's when my lease here is up, and find any job I possibly can (most likely waiting tables) until I get something better and more permanent.
How do I feel? I am terrified, giddy, scared, excited, happy, and nervous all rolled into one big fat package wrapped in uncertainty. I have lived in Raleigh since I was 5, with only one exception...the 4 years I went to school in the mountains. It's time to experience something new and different and the fact that the man I love lives in Wilmington decided where this new experience would take place. I also have a good friend that will be moving to go to school at UNC-W and so we will be roommates. I am giving up the furry loves of my life because I can't afford them and this is the first I've ever been able to admit that giving them to someone else is going to provide them with a better home and care than I have ever been able to provide them with. And I am leaving behind my comfort zone and venturing out into a new and uncharted territory in my life. It's all exciting and full of thrills but it's also full of pitfalls so I have to be super duper careful and watch my footing or I could fall flat on my face...but let's not speak of that for if we never mention it's name it may not ever exist.. ha ha.
I put down a deposit on a 1306 sq ft apartment in an area of Wilmington known as Monkey Junction... I will be living in this apartment complex and it is incredible! They have amazing amenities and the fact that I get all that for the price I'm paying.. way less then my rent in my 1286 sq ft house....is just awe inspiring, well it is to me anyway. I'm so stoked about this!!! If only I could get more motivated to pack up all my worldly possessions!! So, wish me luck, I shall need it more than ever, and pray for me because I know I wont make it without Him.
Oh, and yes you are not only allowed to visit, I fully expect to have as many of my friends come stay with me as possible!

This takes a lot more moxie than people imagine. Good for you! What you are doing says a lot about what you are capable of and I'm sure you can be proud of yourself. =)
