Popping these hard candies like they’re some sort of magical pills. Headphones firmly attached so I can drown everyone out.

The near future excites me and I anticipate this change. Ignoring the doubters and the hypocrites and indulging in my own thoughts. I am happy knowing that I will soon be in a place and a situation where I will continue to be happy.

Because if I stay here, I will never be happy.

I never expected myself to be able to make this decision – I am not the type to make life changes on my own.

But I AM the type to be independent and bold and shock people.

So I guess that this is what I am really doing and I know that I will have some fears and some doubts, but, in the end, this is what I want and need.

And I’m sick of listening to people tell me what I “should” do – I’m following my heart, Ani.
