Why I Want To Move To Alaska

Cold

I sweat a lot. I mean a lot. Sometimes, I sweat for no reason. I am not sure why, and I might have some condition. It is simply impossible for me to survive in hot weather, especially if it is all year round, like in Florida. Not to mention that it is getting even more desirable due to climate change. I would love to get the chance to live in Alaska. The winter is simply nostalgic to me. You always feel cozy when it feels like Christmas, and you can drink hot chocolate nearly any time during the week. I know that if I lived in Alaska, it would be unenjoyable over time. When I was younger, I always wanted to move to Florida from New York since it was too cold. Yet, now, I want to move to a colder climate. Maybe, I need to find a city that has a perfect balance, like Sacramento, California.

Daylight

If you don't know already, half the year is sunny all day long during the spring and summer in Alaska. I am not a night person. Even though, the other half of the year, it is dark for 24 hours. I certainly would lose track of time as anyone would. However, for at least six months out of the year, I would be more productive. The other half, probably not so much. Living anywhere has its disadvantages, though. Alaska's day and night schedules are one of them.

Wildlife

I am pretty sure everyone loves animals at least more than their human companions. I am a part of this group, and I love animals. You probably already know that moose roam the outskirts of Anchorage. Anchorage is a big city, though, and it is a perfect balance between civilization and wilderness. Anyone could get away from society if they wanted to.

I think the hardest thing about going away to college is figuring out how to become an adult. Leaving a household where your parents took care of literally everything (thanks, Mom!) and suddenly becoming your own boss is overwhelming. I feel like I'm doing a pretty good job of being a grown-up, but once in awhile I do something that really makes me feel like I'm #adulting. Twenty-somethings know what I'm talking about.

I went to a small high school, like 120-people-in-my-graduating-class small. It definitely had some good and some bad, and if you also went to a small high school, I’m sure you’ll relate to the things that I went through.

1. If something happens, everyone knows about it

Who hooked up with whom at the party? Yeah, heard about that an hour after it happened. You failed a test? Sorry, saw on Twitter last period. Facebook fight or, God forbid, real fight? It was on half the class’ Snapchat story half an hour ago. No matter what you do, someone will know about it.

Chandler Bing

I'm assuming that we've all heard of the hit 90's TV series, Friends, right? Who hasn't? Admittedly, I had pretty low expectations when I first started binge watching the show on Netflix, but I quickly became addicted.

Without a doubt, Chandler Bing is the most relatable character, and there isn't an episode where I don't find myself thinking, Yup, Iam definitely the Chandler of my friend group.

Working with the public can be a job, in and of itself. Some people are just plain rude for no reason. But regardless of how your day is going, always having to be in the best of moods, or at least act like it... right?

1. When a customer wants to return a product, hands you the receipt, where is printed "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" in all caps.

2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!
