Some may know by my multiple threads that I recently finished my time in the USMC. Since being out of the Corps, something has been changing in me:

The first month or so out of the Corps, it just felt like I was on leave. Now, it's been a few months since I went on terminal leave. Now all I can feel is I want to get away from here. This feeling crept on slowly, as well as many other feelings. Example; I was looking at majors for school, and realize I don't want to go to school here, I want to go to Australia to study and possibly live. I've always been looking at new vehicles, and every time I think I settled, nope. Now no vehicles to buy interest me. Right now I live with my father and his family. I WAS intenting to stay there for two years while going to a CC then transferring. But I can't see that happening. I need a fresh start somewhere. I have dual citizenship, and am in the process of contacting University of Queensland on how to go about applying.

I can't really describe this feeling. If you're prior military, and you've felt something like this, you'll understand. I think i'll be a lot happier somewhere else, on my own. Because where I currently am (where I grew up), my only friends are two old life long buddies, and Marines across the United States. I figure, fuck it, go to a big university in Australia. I have family in Brisbane too.
