    Life falling apart

    Hey man, that really sucks, being put in that position. A person your age should never have to make decisions like that.

    I read a book once called "Rule of The Bone" and I think you should really check it out. The main character in the book has a very similar ordeal as you.

    Anyways, I wish you best of luck with whatever decision you make. Don't ever give up hope, no matter how bad it gets, it'll only get better. Plan out what you are going to do and how you are going to do it and then execute that plan without any distractions. Plan your work and work your Plan. Life is hard and we all have our hardships but you have to make the best of the present.

    Keep us posted how the move goes.

    Also, talk to your uncle and setup a semi-formal system about rent and utlities. That way he won't be able to skim your paycheck randomly.

    Life falling apart

    Not even messing with my uncle, my cousin Ken is down there [not my uncle's kid either, but his nephew that decided to move down there with me] My cous has an apartment with his friend there, our supervisor from my construction job hooked him up. Only issue is getting a plane ticket up, since Arby's is being lame fucks and giving me only 3-4 hours a day, when i specifically told the douche who hired me I needed full time. Got my 'new' comp sitting here needing a new motherbord, its pretty nice with one of those clear light up cases, figure if i get that fixed i might make 250-300 out of it at least.

    When you get a chance, read that book "Rule of The Bone".

    The only advice I can give is to throw your heart into whatever you choose - don't always be wondering about how much greener the grass could be, you know? In other words, don't end up like me, lol.

    In regards to the plane ticket, you should check with your relatives in Hawaii to see if they can get you a Kama Ina ticket. At least, I think that's how it's spelled. "Local's discount", acording to a Hawaiian friend of mine. Anyway, I flew from LAX to Maui for around $300 round trip because of it.

    dude, Im sorry about whats happened but whatever happens to you keep as positive of an attitude as possible DONT FEEL SORRY FOR YOURSELF!!!!! Do something. Some of the greatist men in the world were once in the same position you were. If you work hard enough good things will happen.

    I was thinking of that. Buy shit really cheap and just sell it a lil bit extra. Someone i know at my school does it and make's SHIT load of money (he does it bigtime, like buys in 100's lol). But i would'nt know where to start anyway, don't even know wtf a thrift store is and meh, i just don't know where to buy shit cheap and be able to sell it for a lil bit bigger price.

    my PS2 I think I should leave to my lil bros for sure now [5 and 8] gota hook them up before I leave em again. Lived in Hawaii a few months and honestly , I think it would be easy to live there a lifetime, if you can get the money up for a decent vehicle [alot of surfers just sleep in the car] and just have a job you can work a few hours a week at least [if i get back into construction, it will be 40+ but worth it] Talked to my cous tonight after work, he supports it and will see if he can get my old job back. Only thing is non of us are actually 'locals'. We're still white guys from the mainland, so don't think a true discoutn applies .

    That's easy then - get for cousin to have a hawaiian friend buy the ticket in your name. Round-a-bout way of doing things, but to save a couple hundred, I think it's worth it.
