I should make myself more clear.
I am clearly unsatisfied with Tallahassee for a number of reasons.
This is the time where I’m supposed to have the most amount of freedom with the least amount of responsibility in my entire life. And I’m spending it in a sub-par place with sub-par people doing nothing but homework because I’m so bored? There is no reason why I’m even here except to take advantage of in-state tuition. There’s no industry that I could be immersing myself in nor advantageous connections I could be making. If I was a boy who was interested in college sports, didn’t like urban environments, was thinking about maybe getting into politics or being a lawyer, and wanted my undergrad years to resemble a four year long slut and beer fest, I would be in heaven. But alas, I am not that person. Some people can make it work here who don’t resemble the standard FSU student archetype and even like it and that’s great. I’m happy for you.
But I have spent way too much time living in places that I can’t stand. Ten years in Daytona Beach is enough to break a person like me and it didn’t. While Tallahassee is step up from the Dirty D, I can’t say that I’m satisfied with just “a little bit better”.
But don’t worry, I have a plan :)
