    Thanks for the imput, I'm really ready for a change. I just really wonder what it ell be like, especially if I get a job OT. I kinda want to; i fresh start would be right about now. Bein around people who have only seen you as a young professional probablly would really change my life up.

    I was partly similar with you …… starting a brand new life might also be good ……we will meet lots of new people , new friends , nothing wont change……

    I totally understand this.

    The dudes I grew up with, there were like 6 of us. Then ? starting dippin in the streets while I went to school.

    Graduated, came back home, only bang with my closest friend now. We ended up being roommates for a couple of years. Now, I'm moving out of state, so even my time with him is coming to an end.

    It's apart of life. They'll always be fam, but there are times where you have to accpet that people just won't move at your spped and you have two choices: speed up and do your own thing, or slow down to them and remain behind to where you wanna go.

    I'm in high school and it's kinda the same. A lot of the people here are kinda growing apart and breaking away and ish. There's gonna be new people next year at college and all that, but high school circles are kinda getting a little weaker. At least where I'm at.

    Yea, been there. You never forget your old friends, but don't feel bad about making new ones and growing up. It is a part of life.

    It is a good thing to grow up and get new friends. Doesn't mean you gotta lose the old ones.
