Heh. This one's actually so fitting it gives me the creeps... lol. Except I'm not sure I want to lose any Tori Amos...;) Ten POUNDS would be great, though (ten KILOGRAMS sounds even better, but that's too much to hope for, I'm afraid... *sigh*).
But I totally wouldn't mind moving to Greece with some of my old queer studies.:D :D :D
Btw, I forgot to mention in my previous post that the brilliant plan of having my parents buy an apartment for me isn't going to work. They just don't have the money anymore. Since I refused to go along with the scheme when they first asked, they have put all the money into the house. So I am currently on the hunt for a rental. It's both exciting and a little scary - as most changes are to me. I'm trying to find something a bit closer to the city, but not more expensive than what I'm paying now - which is a challenge. I mean, I wouldn't mind paying a little bit more, just to get out of here, but since I'll be sharing with
akashaelfwitch, I have to consider her budget limit as well (and should I want to rent a studio and live by myself, I'm faced with $700 a month and up - which is way too much to be reasonable at this point). There is also the question of Akasha's cats and the various pet fees/restrictions issued by many rental companies. Not to mention the fact that I have never actually moved into an unfurnished apartment before - and though it might be a bit cheaper than a furnished one, it scares me to death (I don't actually OWN any furniture, except a tiny bookcase and a side table... lol). And all those other big and little things I will have to think about/decide upon. It makes my head spin. I keep telling myself it's a good rehearsal for when I can finally afford buying my own place - but I'm not very convinced right now. *bites lip*
Nonetheless, once I made the decision to move out of here, I know I am going to do it. Even though Akasha might move to Ohio in a few months, like she's been planning to do, and leave me with the task of finding another roommate. Well, at least I don't have to look for an apartment AND a roommate at the same time (that would drive me nuts, for sure). Or move into another private home with the owner actually living there (which would be basically the exact same situation I am in now - ergo, utterly pointless, and I might just as well stay here). Well, let me just say that is something I've had my share of over a larger number of years than I care to count... lol.
Anyway... wish me luck.:) *skips off to resume the googling*
