So I've been in Portland for a few months now, and I finally really like the place. For a while, I was just incredibly depressed because I didn't know anybody here, and just felt really alone all the time. But now, I have friends, my financial situation is good, and I feel like I'm finally a mostly-responsible grownup - and yes, that's a strange feeling to have. I haven't done nearly enough exploring, just mostly the downtown region and some of SE Portland. I'm hoping to move to SE Portland sometime at the end of this year so that I can be around the art community, because my current area is pretty... boring. I need art and music and people around me. I want to be a member of an actual community. But we'll see what happens.
