It's decent. I primarily moved in hopes of a better financial future -- which I knew offhand would be a gamble, as well as everything else here. Still, I owe some people BIG TIME, as this wouldn't have been possible in the least if I didn't have help coming from *somewhere*. Things pretty much turned out so-so; I have a kick-ass roommate, though the person I owe... I didn't do a good job of keeping a cool head with. I feel bad about that, and I feel like said person lost their gamble on me, though I've wanted to do everything I can to repay them since the beginning, and still do.
I hate being in debt, so I'd like to cut this transitional phase as short as possible and actually have an income for a change. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong, because I have plenty of resources and I'm applying to as many businesses as I can. I've come so close -- I mean, I've gotten as far as getting a few background checks and turning out empty-handed. That doesn't make sense as I have no criminal record (although I am aware that there are others with my same first and last name who do -- with my social, however, that should not be an obstacle in the least), so I don't know what the problem is. :\
I've been volunteering for a few weeks now, so at least I have something that looks better on a resume and will sound great during interviews.
