Thank you Willy Wonka for summarizing my feelings thusly.
I finally purchased my ticket and will be on my way out of here on December 1st. New month, new life, amazing how things coincide that way.
I realize that I love the things I have learned here but I am loathe to set aside the deeply rooted hatred I have also learned to feel. I am ready, ready to get out, ready to be done. Ready to be free and live the life I am supposed to live. I am bigger than this place I live in. I am supposed to be more and I will finally have the chances I didn't have as a child. The idea that I am an adult and I have more chances than I would have otherwise has occurred to me.
I can barely contain my elation, the e-mail confirmation was enough to make me giddy. The promise that it will so soon be over for me here. The promise that I will get to move on. The promise of a brand new day and a world full of possibilities. Ahh hope, the siren song you sing is irresistable.
I really hope your move turns out to be even better than you can imagine it in your wildest dreams! :-)
