I’m REALLY in a weird time & place with my life after these turn of events of this past evening. As stated in my post below my roommates and I just got told from the Marshall’s office of a foreclosure serviced on our rental property from April 2008.
It’s raising a lot of questions to myself. As I know how much the mortgage is a month here I know our rent only covers half that. With the house being in foreclosure for nearly two years it makes me wonder if the landlords are just scamming us and taking our money or have they applied to pay off the debt. I’m really unsure what to think without further investigation.
Now it’s not just that…. I was already preparing myself to leave this coming summer hopefully for greener pastures around the area. Hell I got so much to look forward too, starting the photojournalism program at R.I.T, starting Americorps, TONS OF SUMMER FUN,A FILM,BRO B QUES, AMAZING PEOPLE,BIKE RIDES PHOTOS AND MORE PHOTOS, MONEY!
The WEIRD thing is that now I HAVE to leave this place. I gotta find another place to go and it makes me think of all the roads set before me.
- I can stay in Rochester, find another place to live, go to school,do americorps , work on the film, be around my friends.
- I could go to Mississippi and get married (HA!)
- I could move to a major city where I could attend school and really do photography as a decent paying full time gig and fucking love it. I could pick up film work,maybe get into the film industry.
- Look for a photographer job anywhere and then if I get the job,move there!
- Join the peace corps and leave for two years to be a photojournalist all over the world.
This is simply one of those “Turning Points” in my life and to be honest I’ve never been so unsure of anything in my life before and terrified at the same time. I’m straight up scared but also feel excited,it’s a really weird fucking feeling.
I have so much before me and it’s terrifying.
Regardless I’m looking forward to the new roads that lay before me, I just want to make sure I choose the right one.
This might be one of those nights I’m gonna go out and grab a beer.
If anyone has any thoughts on this, I’d love to hear them.
I think its pretty inspiring at how optimistic you are about the whole situation. Most people (myself included) would bitch about how shitty it is that you have to move out. In your case, one door is closing and hundreds are opening!
Thanks! Your optimism is contagious!
