Yes, I've always been struggling to get out.

I lived in Chicago for the year previous. I only returned to my little town because I got fucked over by the University's student aid department, and I was extremely ill (I was positive I was dying - intense pain all over my torso, constant vomiting, couldn't eat anything, intense pain in my back - could only bear it in searing hot showers). I got forced into coming back.

I'm here for a year, saving as much as I can so I can move East.
