Not ever! There is always a way. You may have to compromise but life is what happens while you're making plans. All you can do is make the best of whatever situation you're in. If you have to retreat back to your hometown, so be it. It doesn't mean that you cannot try again in the future. I am Autistic so its hard to impossible to make friends. There are some people who seem to live their lives as an obstacle to us all. They are the people who tell you that you can't and they are the jerks on You Tube calling you stupid, fat, dumb, boring. You can't let adversity defeat you!!! I had trouble making friends in real life so I went online. I signed up for Myspace, Bebo, Facebook, and about a dozen other sites. They said I was weird and strange but dammit I annoyed them and thats all that matters. I made secret time with their pictures, and creepily commented their page, and in full view of their friends I told them that the cream would make the burning sensation go away. Do I give up? No because Xenia's cat Puffy cannot deny our love! Cats need love too bitches! Never give up! Not ever! There is always a way.

In the end I had to choose the good college, because the drama course alone was enough to make me stay. I miss my old friends so much, and I've tried to stay in contact. Some people reply, some don't, but that's their problem, because it'd suck to lose a friend like me. My boyfriend and I have only grown close, even though we only see eachother once a week. But it really makes us appreciate the time we have together. I was worried about finding friends at first, and though it's taken some time, I have gained an abundance of friends. Guess you gotta follow your head, and eventually you'll please your heart, too.

I am so touched that there are people out there who are willing to take some time out to write words of encouragement for a total stranger, so thank you, you truly made my day! I wrote said email a few weeks ago and in the time that has passed I have done a lot of thinking. I put ALOT of pressure on myself when I moved to get a great job, great house, great friends, and when that didn't work out quickly, I got very discouraged. I have since rethought my priorities and in doing so, have a fresh attitude. I am no longer looking for a dream job, but a job that will help me financially so I can go out and live more. I have made some great friends and am living life day by day instead on focussing and putting pressure on my distant future. So to sum up, I am staying! I hope anyone else in the same situation follows their heart and does what they know, deep down, they should do, and mine was give it a go, I know in my gut that I haven't finished here yet. xx Thank you everyone for your kind words of support, and thank you Doe for such great advice.

I moved away 4 hours away from my town, parents and friends in september for school. I was so homesick, i spent everyday crying. I wasnt happy here at all. I almost went home a couple times, but i didnt. I kept telling my mom, "I could come home, but I'll end up working at tim hortons my whole like and very do anything with it." I'm glad i didnt move back. Ive made a few friends and the homesick feeling has left. And once i finish school, I'll get to pursue a career i actually like and want. Do what you think is best.
