SO THE "CAT"..IS OUT OF THE BAG....
So I'm moving to California to be with my lynx.
Distance hasn't been too much of an issue for us. In fact, for the first time, I am honestly fine with our long distance. We talk every day and I don't fear anything in our relationship. I have zero doubt and I have endless love in my heart for this cat, and mean it when I say that I could ask for no better person to spend my time next to. We just Work.
Regardless, I knew I've wanted to transfer away from Mansfield, away from here, home, everything, for the past year. I've fallen into a terrible rut, and have been talking to my family, blood and otherwise, about a Move and a Change for quite some time. It's taken a lot of thought, but I've made my decision.
Last I visited Kavi, I applied to and explored a really nice little art school out there to finish up my degree. It's going to be expensive, but I feel a zest for art that I haven't here. I will actually be challenged, and have access to some amazing materials and professors that will push me to the limit. Also, California! Sun! Warmth! Art! People! Beach! I'm so excited to be somewhere that doesn't affect my allergies, where I'm not cold all the time, where things are open and people are happy.
I'm also in the works of getting myself actually recognized as a freelance business, complete with website, identity, business cards, the works.
It's a time of movement, and needed change, and we just wanted to make it official at this point. I'm looking to be out there by July.
What does this mean for art? As my semester winds down, I'll be finishing up owed art, and present a new and updated price and style sheet. I also want to get back into iron artists, and continue my super fun and successful music/art streams with Firr.
The greatest thing about all of this is how supportive everyone has been. I was terrified to admit to my blood family that I was having problems. I was terrified to admit that I would spend my whole day in bed, contemplating my reasons for existing. Admitting to my father that really bad stuff happened last year to me. Admitting to my grandma that I need help. And talking about getting away, going somewhere warmer and brighter....has lead to more support than I ever dreamed possible.
As I move, I'm planning on doing a big ol' cross-country road trip, visiting some friends for a few days at a time, and I'm gonna plan out how that's going to go in the upcoming weeks. I wish I could visit everyone across the country, but gas is expensive. We'll see how much I raise.
Wish us luck, guys. :D
