That the world won't miss me when I'm gone? All the time. But it doesn't depress or even lower my spirits like it seems to for most of the rest of everyone else. I talk online to people I have never met in person every day, because I haven't the money (for sports/music/interest clubs) or the social connections to meet people in Honolulu yet, and because I am a very social person in my own way. I don't believe that ridiculous nonsense about the friendships with people you meet online being somehow less real than the ones you make in meatspace. That's just silly
( ... )
That's just it... I need to find something besides working, but I don't WANT children. I have no desire to inflict my genetic code (or this world in general) on the next generation. And at this point, having observed so many failed relationships, I don't particularly want that either. But I'm tired. And bored. I can't spend the rest of my life living deeper and deeper in video games and books and movies. I'm not ambitious; I don't particularly want to be a crusader. And being a pessimist, I don't believe that the world is going to change much in my lifetime. What's left?
Also? Hawaii has mountains. It might be a little warm for my tastes, but it's not the Bible Belt and it's not the desert. What's important to me is to be somewhere different. I picked Seattle because there's a lot of people there that I know, that I consider friends... that I speak to about as often as I speak to YOU right now.
That being said, moving to Hawaii is an extremely expensive prospect, and everybody wants to, so space and jobs would both be at a premium.
