| I don't really know where to start here, so I'm going to jump into it and let you figure it out. Bear with me. I am up for this job that will pay really well but will essentially kill any hopes I had of restarting my college education for at least a year and some change. It could also possibly mean me getting sucked into a life of retail management. However, I also have the option of moving to Philadelphia to live with one of my best friends. It would mean cramped living quarters for a while, but the apartment complex lets you upgrade, so we could get a bigger place when I got a job. Philly is also where I was planning to go to school eventually. Should I get the job, here are the pros of staying in Boston: -I am closer to my family, including aunts and uncles and my Nannie. -I will still live in the same city as my boyfriend. -I won't have to pack up and move my stuff. -I will have just enough money to survive. Here are the pros of moving to Philly: -My best friend since high school lives there, and after May, my best friend from here will live there. -I will be half as far away from Beth, and living in the same state. -Chris will only be 4 hours away. -I have a better chance of going back to college. Still, I'm scared. Really scared. Taking the job would be the easy thing to do, especially for the short term. But do I want an easy way out, even though I'll probably be unhappy at it? Or do I want to have to do hard work and be miserable for a while, but have more opportunities to eventually have a life? I need your opinion. Please. Whether or not you know me, read me every day, or if this is your first time here. Whatever. I know a lot of people read this. Just leave me a comment. Write me an e-mail. Sign my guestbook. Be anonymous if you want to. It will take you two seconds and it will be really important to me. Please. Thank you. |
