I am moving to Las Vegas in a few days and it is a bittersweet thing at best. I am excited to be going out west and starting a new chapter in my life, but I am also leaving behind one of the most amazing people to ever enter my life, my girlfriend Nina. Walking away from love seems insane, and my sister in Vegas actually got quite annoyed with me for changing my mind all summer about moving out there. But things have fallen into place as such that the move really does seem like the right thing. We will be doing the long distance thing and I should be moving to Philly in the next year to be with her there… (that is the plan) but I know life takes radical changes and turns and even the best laid plans don’t always work out. I suppose if it is meant to be it will be. Only time will tell. All I know is that I love her and am committed to making things work.
The plan in Vegas is to get a waiter job asap, get a street bike for transportation, then start saving and bu
ying things wisely. The time has come to actually have a savings account and start a life for myself. This means getting really serious about music again as a career or culinary school. Either way, the time has come to really start living like an adult and stop the 15+ year party. Its had its high’s and lows and living like a 16-year-old at 28 is now tired and boring. I want adventure and excitement, and not in the pill form or the “greatness” of living in a quasi frat house. I want a career path that takes me places and people in my life who have their shit together as well. This is a whole new chapter and I intend to capitalize on this opportunity. Not squander it like so many others I have wasted.
So NJ, goodbye, so long, see you around. I am going out west maybe never to return. If you happen to be in Vegas, shoot me a text message.
