Im a freshman in college and right now I feel like moving to guadathewhothehellknows and start an easy laid back life. I probably would not have a very good, or hard job but then again i wouldnt have to buy all the material crap that surrounds me here. Or maybe i will just work some place random for a year or two then come back here. I have been watching american beauty a little bit to much and i think its giving me a mid life crisis while im still 19.But do any of you ever feel like this? or get the urge to start a new life?

Of course. Everyone gets that urge, especially when life is stressful, but honestly, it'd probably hurt you more to just pack up and leave because you have to reestablish yourself. First, you have to have the money to move and money to start you out with, and accumulating that money can be a task itself. And then you have to have enough to hold yourself over until you can find another job, which can be tough. Honestly, moving can be a bad thing. Especially if it's away from a place where you're already established. I would love to move to a big city, but the problem is, I can't afford to and I have a 5 month old baby and a husband to think of. What kind of mom would I be if I was living in a cardboard box? If I saved enough to last me 6 months, I might consider it, because that could easily be enough time to establish myself...But until then? I wouldn't even consider it.
