Breathing calmy once more

Aaah. Who ever thought that my parent’s house would be a place we would go to get away from stress? Not I! I remember always going over to Loren’s house to get away from my parents in high school. However now it’s so nice to be over here. It’s quiet (and I mean quiet!), no distractions, no lectures… just peace. It’s wonderful.

My dad might be able to get Loren a job at the place where he works as a maintenance person. I think that’d be nice, but its suuuper hard for me to get a job in Salem. I’m not sure why, but I just can’t. There are really no businesses here that want the skills I have. The only jobs I’ve had in Salem where minimum wage paying jobs! One was Subway and the other was a grocery store. Yet in Portland there are quite a few nice jobs and they pay well too. Thus it’s either I commute or find someone in Salem to hire me.

I am just so tired of Salem it’s maddening. I’m young! I can move where ever I choose! All I have to find is a job and an apartment. Loren’s parents think otherwise. They say that we should get everything figured out, work for a few years, save some money, and then move wherever. In a few years I’m going to start wanting children! I’ll be 24. I want kids before I’m 30. I would think that finding a place you like then settling down would be the best idea. But maybe not, who friggen knows. All I know is that I hate Salem with a passion.
