I've been in Savannah for 13 months now ... crazy long time. Still feels like just a few months -- I'm sure eventually it'll feel longer. Some aspects are "home like" and some are still getting there. Not sure how long that takes. Manhattan maybe took 2 years, I don't really remember but I know eventually it'll all feel like home.
I moved here for my job and thankfully I'm still here for my job :) Which means I love it. I've also made some friends along the way which is quite helpful for me.
I still do wonder though if I'll make friends like I've had in the past (they're still in my life, I just means friends I made before Savannah). I know I'm supposed to be here -- it's very clear so that's reassuring.
Besides moving to a new, unfamiliar city in the last year I can't really say much has happened...which might be a 1st for me...and maybe that's good. No big, eventful news ... do I want something big, I duno ... maybe!
In the next year let's see what'll happen:
-I'll turn 24. (In less than a month actually) Gifts accepted.
-Trip to Orlando ... coming soon and I cannot wait!
-Getting a new car, hopefully sooner than later, '09 Toyota Camry here I come.
-I'll make a few trips to see my parents.
-I'll go over-sees on a missions trip .... TBD.
-I'll find prince charming (Unlikely -- but hopeful)
-And I'll buy a house (again, maybe unlikely but more possible than the above)
-Oh, of course I'll learn and grow and all that good stuff too.
I think you learn a lot about yourself when you move away from everything you've ever known -- surroundings, friends, family, etc... I think I suggest this for everyone (or almost everyone).
In other news: I saw The Proposal and it was really great and really fun. Boys, you'd even like this one. I saw the preview for New Moon which isn't coming out until November 20 but I'm super excited. And lastly, I cannot believe it's basically July. Time flies when you get old and grow up, I guess ...
Plans for the 4th = ZERO ... Savannah is too hot to spend it outside and I'm not sure there's anything else to do. Friends in far away places -- fly to me.
