Do you ever feel like moving away from all your friends and going somehwhere where no-one will know anything about you and you can start fresh..not your whole life..just from now on.

 

Ive got nice friends, but somethimes I wish that I could move and start again...after living in the same place/going to the same school all your life, people begin to think they know you....and their decision can be based on one moment, when you did something...and then they tell other people and people form a general opinion of you, that will be there as long as you're in the school/area you live. :\

I do and I'm gonna leave this place in about three months.

 

I'm sure that I'll miss some people though, but I can't stay here either. The weird think is that I dunno yet where I'll go, I have to decide in the next two weeks or so.

 

Anyway, I'm going to England and when I come back in October I'm gonna live in another Swiss town.

well yeah. pretty much. the town i live in is shitty, small, full of backstabbers, everyone basically knows everyone and like yeah. stuff goes around and i don't really see myself living here after a year anymore.

 

the reason why i'm kinda feeling like 'starting over' isn't just because i'd want to get the fuck out of here but because i'm a sucker for new experiences and just some thrills that get me kicks.

 

yeah i guess it'd be sweet to go somewhere will no one would know anything about me but at the same time it'd be kinda scary because you easily can isolate from the society if you have no one familiar around. although that being said people ARE social creatures though and from my personal experience it doesn't matter if you're staying in the middle of a forest or some star wars fan meeting, you'll find someone to be connected with at least on some level and i dare say very

few are the cases where there's nobody to kinda become friends with or sorta. if there isn't then the problem pretty much is in the person him/herself

 

haha sorry i got so carried out right now. totally offtopic but hey.

^^^ ditto

 

I have had strong feelings to just move away and never look back

 

because my town is sorry

because i am sorry for the things i have done in my town

 

i have just this ..past here that i cannot seem to escape.

and i feel like

i have nothing else here for me, so why not start somewhere new, where my identity will be mine to re-make.

 

i dislike bumping into people here whose faces make me feel sick :sick: !!!

 

 

so yes

 

in a hearbeat, if i had the means, i would move it outta here!

Yeah Yeah....thats exactly what Im talking about Crystal.

 

"I dislike bumping into people here whose faces make me feel sick"

 

"start somewhere new, where my identity will be mine to re-make"

ahhh a wish come true it would be!

 

 

all the people i know here know things about me i wish would disapear

and since i cant turn time back, i can at least go away!

 

 

a fresh start would be awesome, and i could choose a better place!

 

(come with me Seamus! :kiss: ) :p

 

 

honestly, even though my family is here... i would still leave, because they are not much of a family anyway :rolleyes:

 

 

I love this song by Modest Mouse

everytime i hear it, it makes me want to leave my town!

 

Ice-age heat wave, can't complain.

If the world's at large, why should I remain?

Walked away to another plan.

Gonna find another place, maybe one I can stand.

I move on to another day, to a whole new town with a whole new way.

Went to the porch to have a thought.

Got to the door and again, I couldn't stop.

You don't know where and you don't know when.

But you still got your words and you got your friends.

Walk along to another day.

Work a little harder, work another way.

 

Well uh-uh baby I ain't got no plan.

We'll float on maybe would you understand?

Gonna float on maybe would you understand?

Well I'll float on maybe would you understand?

 

The days get shorter and the nights get cold.

I like the autumn but this place is getting old.

I pack up my belongings and I head for the coast.

It might not be a lot but I feel like I'm making the most.

The day's get longer and the nights smell green.

I guess it's not surprising but it's spring and I should leave.

 

I like songs about drifters - books about the same.

They both seem to make me feel a little less insane.

Walked on off to another spot.

I still haven't got anywhere that I want.

Did I want love? Did I need to know?

Why does it always feel like I'm caught in an undertow?

 

The moths beat themselves to death against the lights.

Adding their breeze to the summer nights.

Outside, water like air was great.

I didn't know what I had that day.

Walk a little farther to another plan.

You said that you did, but you didn't understand.

 

I know that starting over is not what life's all about.

But my thoughts were so loud, I couldn't hear my mouth.

My thoughts were so loud, I couldn't hear my mouth.

My thoughts were so loud.

Ooh, ok! Where will go Crystal? :shy:

 

I get along well with my family, I wouldnt just run away....although that would also be kinda fun. :thinking:

 

I think once I leave school it will be ok...I'll leave everyone behind, except for the people I like....I'll take them with me in a bag. :uhoh2:

 

Sorry, dont know that song Crystal...the lyrics certainly are appropiate thoug. :nice:

I often thought about this.....but at the moment not....no....I'm happy as it is atm....

yes

:nice: to the mooonnn

 

 

nah, i don't mean run away either, I just mean, when i am good and settled after high school....I don't plan on coming back to this town....

no way no way

I was thinking bout it just before.

 

 

I don't think it's moving away I need.... I just need a certain period of time away from everything. My friends mainly. I love them I have great friends but I don't appreciate them and they don't appreciate me as much as I think I could or they could.

 

I'm going away for a month in the summer, hopefully when I get back I'll have a lot of happy faces to talk to.

yes, sometimes I think about that, especially lately. I think about leave almost everything; my parents, my friends, and so on and live in another place but during several months. It's a wish quite hard for carrying out, though. :cry: I wish I could go to a foreign country and start a new life there, and see how everything is going on. It could be the opportunity of my life... who knows? But for doing something like that you've to be really strong, and confident in yourself. Not everyone can do it. Moreover, I think there's a suitable age for doing it - this is one of the things that you do it when you're young, or forget the idea, 'cause you will never do it.

 

Anyway, I think it could be a great experience - like the others said, the people who know you have a pre-idea about you, and sometimes it's wrong - and moreover I think it could help me to value what I already have... sometimes, this is the only way for valuing it, just living another experiences, so you can compare one to each other. ;)

 

Futhermore, I've always had the idea the life in other countries is better than here, more exciting... - I'm conscient that it's wrong - but as I said, it could be a way for realise about it.

HAH! Iris!

THe place I would choose to go is SPAIN!

and you want to leave there!

 

the irony! :bigcry: lets trade places! no no! here it is miserable...i will not make you stay in yucky Texas! :sick:

omg, Crystal!!! :bigcry:

I'd have never thought you would choose Spain!!!! :surprised:

Anyway, I'm sure you'll like it, the weather is really good, the people used to be open-minded. I think my problem is that I don't value what I've here... and maybe if I'd see other "realities" I'd realise about that.

 

Texas? what's wrong with Texas?

from a US perspective ...SPain looks reallly good. And I would like to visit a spanish speaking country...since i already know the languare :wink:

 

and many many bunches of people here dream of going to either hawaii ...or Spain!

ask anyone here where they want to go...and they say Spain!

 

sometimes....okay most times...people want what they don't have. you have Spain i do not. i want Spain (i dont WANT SPAIN...but to visit it!) :laugh4:

 

 

because there are people who have posted here from countries i would LOVE love to visit.but they seem to want to leave them

 

 

EDIT: the weather in Texas is horrible..its muggy (very humid) and it always feels sticky and like you can't get enough air from the hot weather.

we dont have much cold...the winter weather last like, a day. :rolleyes:

and everything is sooo far away from one place to the next in most Texan towns...too much driving and distances.

I love mexico because the necessities are right around the corners

I did it 9 years ago!!!!

 

feeling like doing it again...

@Crystal: I thought that we didn't exist (sorry for saying this in that way) from a US perspective... that's what I've always thought, or maybe I was wrong. I'm happy to know you wanna come here, though! :)

 

Sometimes? I'm sure you meant "always"... we always want what we don't have - cruel reality -, we aren't content with the things we already have.

yes you are correct...very seldom can we find things that we have that we are truly satisfied with. I think that is why I want the move. But really, the only thing keeping me from leaving is my special someone...family can stay here (if i go) supposed friends (they would not even know i was gone!) that is why i said supposed friends!

 

there are just too many people here and everything has changed and the changes have brought to much activities that become a norm. people here do the same thing day in, day out to spend their free time. And i need to go to a place where people are more active.

yup, but sometimes, what you said, depends more on the person interests, not on the atmosphere. Anyway, the best way for knowing if you'd really like the new place where you wanna go, is going there. We often idealize what we don't have - and in fact, these things aren't that important as we used to think -

 

That's true, people here is very active, they're always going out and doing different things. The good weather and the sea helps a lot, I presume. :)

Don't we all? :p

ahhh you see. that is it...i want the activities that take you touring around beautiful cities...which we do not have. and i want a heavy culture. ( i know Spain is rightfully proud of what they are..and i love that)

here...i dont know what the " culture" or America is..but they say it's freedom!

:rolleyes:

a heavy culture? - what do you mean exactly?

 

freedom??? erm... I have my doubts about that. I think you're quite controled by your government, here we've more freedom, I'm sure.

I was being sarcastic. If you ask an American what their countries culture is...they say freedom, because they have NOTHING else!

I guess the culture would really be the MIX of cultures...because there are so many different ones all in the same place..which is cool

 

you are right about the freedom thing....but hey, it could be worse!

"To be free, or to feel free............................the first one is a myth."

indeed
