So here recently I've been getting this sinking feeling that I'm sure most people young and old have dealt with at least once in their lifetime. I've got that feeling that I'm stuck, that where I'm at in life simply isn't where I want to be. Where I live has no opportunity for the future, no advance in lifestyle, and it's simply dull. This is a place where you move to once you're well off and established and you build around what you've already got. It's simply miserable for people like myself.
I have goals in life I wish to accomplish, things I want to achieve before a certain age. This isn't the place to do that. What I'm looking for is somewhere that one can work towards something and gain it, where there's diversity, things to do, people to meet, and a great mix of ethnicity. Where I am, there's none of that. It's just barren and full of close minded individuals who want nothing more to do than deal with their own selfish needs. it's so ass-backwards here it's hard to tell if what you're doing is the right or wrong thing (See my post about my ticket).
Anywho.. if I ever want to move ahead in life and get ahead of the curve, not just in it where you struggle to get ahead and pray you don't fall behind, I have to get out of here. I want to land in a place where I can expand, have more available, and just all around keep from being miserable knowing that I could jog across my town in 12 minutes. I don't need anything large and extravagant. I just want something where I can explore, have fun, and just all around enjoy things.
I know there are guys here who live in places like there. So how about sharing some personal experience? Give a little direction. Perhaps even suggest a few places and potential job ops of those places? I'd love to pick up some sort of software/hardware job, so that'd also be lovely. You know - " Hey man, I live in Newyork and my company is looking for a Hardware Geek, blah blah. "
Just looking for some direction from some individuals who have either dealt with this themselves or perhaps can offer some direction. I have very few ties here and no family - I don't care to move across the nation... I just need to figure out where, when, why, and what opportunities are available.
