Every spark of friendship and love will die without a home.

One of the roughest times in my life was probably when I first moved to Florida with my parents. It was the first time I can really say my life got turned completely upside down. I knew the move was coming, it wasn't a huge surprise. But we uprooted quickly and before I knew it, we were living there. And I wasn't very happy about it. For the first

I moved around a lot when I was younger and had to start off high school somewhere new and even then I was working a lot so I never got to make a lot of friends, so I really understand where you're coming from. If you never figured out where you fit in as an adolescent, it creeps up on you in adulthood and creates all these crazy complexes. This is probably a really lame thing to say to a post like this but you're always listening to the best music when you post.

It was hard, wasn't it? I thought once I started to get adjusted to everything then life would be normal again but I never really realized until later on that it would in some way effect how I dealt with friendships and everything else for years afterward. It's not lame at all, thank you! I'm glad you like it, I was picking between that song and Bliss from Muse, it was a toss up.

I've felt so displaced when I've moved. It can be overwhelming because it is a huge change and I don't think any one is sure of where they'd fit in. Several of my friends uprooted and when they'd come to visit they were completely different people, absorbed by their new environment. It happens a lot, but I think it's just life and you learn to see who you really are as a person in those situations.

I think any kind of move is traumatic in some ways, both good in bad. It's a lot to take on! And that's really true from what I've learned, as long as you know who you are, you can deal with any change that you aren't used to.

What didn't go well about Virginia to NYC? I think that too, when I moved from Flordia to LA it wasn't quite as bad. But I was much older and it was more my choice, so the control was in my hands and if I didn't like it then I had only myself to blame.

Oh, I see. I'm a big believer in the whole everything-happens-for-a-reason thing, it seems like things have worked out pretty well for you anyway. Are you ever going to try theater again or did you rule it out?

I always try and locate some quiet corner somewhere where I can catch a few breaths of fresh air yet to be tainted. It's hard finding that in the big cities sometimes. I have this silly fantasy of running away to the woods or the mountains one day with nothing but some soap and a hairbrush, just to say I've experienced fresh, clean air first hand, along with something entirely different.

That sounds fantastic actually. And I know what you're talking about, the air is never really all that clear when I'm out walking around. There's usually something wafting over from restaurants or cars that had gone by not long before that's in the air somewhere. But it's expected, so I never mind.
