There’s no place like home

Hey everybody. I am still alive, still kicking… doing well. Haven’t felt much of a “need” to come on here lately. Still feel confident about my quit. I can’t believe I am almost at 2 1/2 years now… time flies.

So what have I been doing? A lot of golf.
Looking for a new job back in the Toronto area. I am becoming discouraged though because I have been applying to a bunch of places and haven’t heard a thing. I know I have the skills and can land any job if just given the chance. “Frustrating” is the only word to sum it up.

Life on the East coast is to country for my liking. I came out here for an experience and that is what I got. I don’t know if it is for the better or not. But I do know, it makes me appriciate where I came from and life there isn’t so bad. I almost feel like where I am living now is like being stuck outside of a glass box looking in. I hear about the things happening in Toronto, my friends, my family and here I am stuck in some small town where nothing happens ever. Even when there is an event it is so small scale compared to what I am use to it almost feels like it is “amature” if that makes sense.

Maybe I am just a stuck up city boy… I like to think I am not. It is just hard to not talk about the city when that is all you know. It seems out on the East Coast people do very little. Have lack of ambition when it comes to learning and their careers. Don’t get me wrong, they are very nice people, it’s just their values are much different than what I am use to.

The east coast is beautiful and my gf and I both agree it would be a nice place to retire, but for now it just seems like my life is on pause out here.

Anyway… that’s what’s happening.
