 live in Texas, PT and I have crossed path in social circles over the 
years for brief amounts of time, we're almost exactly the same age.
  Texas
 is a cheap place to live. I was out of my parents' house by my own 
choice when I was 19. I worked at a department store initially, and not 
only did I manage to make ends meet, but when I was going through my 
urges to go to Japan, I MADE that shit happen. I saved, I sold crap, I 
did medical research studies and junk, and then I went for a week. And 
then I was like, "Cool experience, bro," and then got on with my life. 
She can do this, seriously, if she really wanted to. Even if she does 
just work at Target, she can survive, and she can make her dream happen,
 and then maybe once she actually gets to Japan she'll realize, "Well, 
that was pretty cool and all, but now I can say I've done it and then 
move on to something else." 
  Hell, though, she's finished school.
 Right? If she were to find a job in her field then she'd be able to 
accomplish a shit-ton more. She's like so capable of being more and yet 
she hasn't done ANY of it yet. 
  I think if I ended up being well 
on my way to 30 and not having actually gotten out and done a lot of the
 things I dreamed about while I was young I'd pretty much just give up.  |
