How do You Just Pick up And Leave?

First step is to save money. Depending on what you want to do.  If it is college. Just enroll in UNCC. 

 

For moves outside the state like Imicus said take the least amount as possible. Also budget money for a return trip.  Nothing worse than being stuck in a place you hate.   

 

Best thing to do is have a job in the city before you leave. Easier said than Done specially if you don't have a skill.  I would advise no less than 3000 in the bank for travel and first month expenses.  

 

Easiest way is to join the military. But you are committed for 3-4 years going that route.

I suggest Charlotte. Not having the a ton of money your likely to have more here, it's an easier move and it's not too far from home. CPCC is one of the better community colleges in the country. 

Your single, 21, no kids, not much stuff...now is the time to move.

You really seem like a perfect candidate for a four year hitch in the military.  It would provide you with the resources to further your educational and career objectives.  You'll gain many new skills and plenty of life experiences to draw from when you finally write that great novel.   A four year paid vacation courtesy of Uncle Sam.  Play your cards right and you'll have a nice little nest egg built by the time your enlistment is up.

just do it. no offense OP but i feel like you have a long history of talking about doing things here and getting all pumped up and psyched but then just never doing anything about it. this isn't meant to discourage you because i'm the same way, i'll run through an entire plan in my head but then not follow through by actually making it happen. it's something you have to train yourself to do.

my advice would be to find a community college and enroll. you need to be doing something. even if it's just GTCC and you're moving to greensboro, you're still improving your life by leaps and bounds and getting out of what sounds like a stagnant, vitality-drraining situation up in reidsville (fug that place anyway.)

good luck.

You're only speaking the truth. It's something I've always done, but I'm very serious about and my desire to get out of town grows every day. I just need to lay out a plan and execute it. Wherever I end up, CC will be one of the first things I do.

FWIW, if you're serious, my first step would be paring down all my accumulated "stuff" that I didn't really need. You could get extra cash for it, and detaching yourself from worldly things sounds like a good start for you.

As far as education goes, I'd research the hell out of scholarships, etc.

If you really want to be a writer, you need to read a lot of books. You'll also probably want to have a day job until you get your feet wet.

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By JawnyBlaze · Posted

      It wasn’t completely his fault, but outside of two throws and one or two scrambles he didn’t do much to help. His accuracy was all over the place, numerous passes that were placed poorly and didn’t give the receiver a good chance to catch the ball or do anything with it after. He also continues to display terrible pocket awareness. Even the sacks could have been avoided, they weren’t immediate like the pressure we got on Shough at times. Bryce just often has no feel for pressure and stands there waiting to get sacked after numerous seconds have passed.

      I really fuging hate this era in so many ways.  I look at those Adin Ross and Neon kids, and I just wonder why tf are they famous?  Why would anyone be desperate enough to gain THAT audience that they’d risk money, career, disciplinary action to go up there and associate with those fuging dweebs?  And back in my day, racist peers got their ass beat.  And not endorsing or approving bully culture, but checks and balances and all…  had those two been bullied, or at the very least humbled, they wouldn’t be famous and glorified for being the fuging idiots they are now.  It seriously pisses me off… they both have done and said multiple, openly racist stuff and major media keeps pushing them, talking about them, and propping them up… and then dummies like Puka who don’t need the platform or exposure lend their celebrity to them.  fuging idiot… and even the other streamers, I don’t get - Speed, Kai…  I don’t understand making nobodies famous at all, but there is at least entertainment value to some degree there, and I could see how young, impressionable kids would find them something to aspire to (sadly), or view as “cool.”  But Ross and Neon?  They’re just shitty, shitty nerds with big ass mouths. I’ve went back recently and watched some classics (in two very different eras and categories 😂)  like Robocop and Idiocracy.  And what I find fascinating is how both movies illustrate how stupid society became by showing what the citizenry is entertained by.  In both, society became anti-intellectual and the citizenry were entertained by lowest denominator, primal-type absurdity - poo like, “Ouch! My Balls!”  Or on Robocop, a guy is a watching a show where they are smashing cakes on ladies’ breasts and then a guy says a line as the camera zooms in like, “I’d buy that for a dollar!” and the audience thinks it’s hilarious.  That’s where I feel like we are now.  Like who watches that clip with Puka and thinks any of that poo is funny or cool?  If I was Puka, I’d honestly be wondering why tf I’m hanging out with these beta ass, racist, cretin ass weirdos.
