I couldn’t help it! I actually sang that song for a 70’s Benefit Concert, I though it was a great way to kick off my blog. I was going to wait and start this when I reached China, but I think understanding the whole process and journey from beginning to the end will be the most appealing. Yes everyone, the rumors are true , I am moving to China. I was posting such on my Facebook page and everyone got so confused.
Honestly I have always considered New Jersey as only a resting stop on destination unknown. I stayed in New Jersey way too long, seven years too long. I always felt that my life was destined for more than it is now. I have always craved adventure and that does not include walking around Newark New Jersey at night singing Christmas carols in July.
I have always felt that New Jersey is not where my future lies, my future lies elsewhere. Not to say I am anti Jersey, I have met many wonderful people on my Jersey Journey, I rediscovered my faith, I taught some amazing children and made some great friends. I also suffered tons of heartaches and woes since living in New Jersey. That can only be chocked up to LIFE. You take the good you take the bad. You take all and there you have… The Facts of Life!!! Lol.
Above all though rapid weight, gain, heartaches, losing close friends, job turmoil and getting dumped: I have always maintained my sense of humor. Life is not always moonlight and roses, but can be so much better if you surround yourself with amazing people. Though in 2 months I will be leaving some of my amzing friends Reg, Caity, Nick, Lisa, Laura, Bowie, Liquid Church and The whole You Choose Band, I know you will all will be etched in my heart. You all have made New Jersey a bearable place. Thanks everyone 🙂
