Hi, I'm new to the forums, but I'm old with a home sickness. I lived in Washington my whole life up to eighteen. I loved it. The friends God gave me are unforgetful. The band he allowed me to lead was able to play on TV, radio, and did several concerts along Pierce County and around Seattle. The church I had was spectactular. I loved the small church because it wasn't 'big' which allowed great friendships to build. Most of all was my family.
I decided to move one day to California with my dad. I feel like everything I held so dear has been torn away from me. The town I live in is quite large but everyone is like idiots in this area. The people at the local churches seem to be too "busy" to hang out and get to know me. I hardly do music anymore with my guitar/singing because of the lack of places to play at. Sure, I plan on moving soon, but I'm mainly here for college, then I may move to San Francisco later. I was going to move back to Washington but guess what? My mother and two brothers move to Oregon. So now the house I planned to go back earlier now has nobody in here. It's where I grew up and everything. I've been trying to accept that life goes on. New things will present itself around the corners. But it's been two years and I'm still sad by it all. My car sucks so I can't see my family much. So, after all this time, I was inspired by a friend to start computer programming mainly in applications and games. Its kept me busy for sure but I always break out crying about being home-sick about a home that doesn't even exist anymore up there.
Anyway, as I said, I'm new here and I just wanted to share where I'm at right now in life. If you can relate and found ways to help, please let me know because I'm getting annoyed that I have very few friends here *in real life* so I thought I'd help get some support here since google recremended this as the first link. I hope to get a lot out of this site. Thanks for reading this.
