Well. Further Clarification is in order, mainly because of how rude people have been regarding my moving.
It's not any of their business, but I don't want people to talk about me unless they've got the whole story first.
1. I am moving to Anaheim, California on May 12th.
2. It's because I have a job up there.
3. It's with ADT Home Security systems, and I will be selling door-to-door
4. They'll be paying for me to move up there, as well as my apartment.
5. It's a summer job, meaning I will unfortunately be moving back to Arizona in August.
6. More than likely, I will be returning to EAC in the fall. That's one good thing about coming back.
7. I want to spend a semester or two there, and then go to BYU-I.
Now, if it's all the same to you guys, I'd appreciate it if you were either supportive of my choices, or that you would just keep your mouths shut about it. Simply put, I will not tolerate being spoken to condescendingly. I am not a flake, and I have gone about this prayerfully and I don't want the feelings I've had regarding this move questioned. Yes, I have felt the assurance that I am doing the right thing. I've moved around quite a bit in the last year, admittedly, and to someone who doesn't understand (or who won't listen to my reasonings), it looks like I can't keep my feet on the ground. It's really nobody's business but my own, and I would absolutely LOVE to not have to explain myself to every person that I encounter.
To sum things up,
If I haven't told you about it, it's either because I haven't gotten to it yet,
I don't WANT to tell you because I know that you'll be negative,
or because I don't feel the need to explain myself to you.
Thanks for reading, please forgive me if I've offended you, and please understand my reasoning and logic.
Whew.
NOTE: Some of the comments that I received...notice that this is just a very few of them. Didn't know I meant enough to people for them to constantly criticize every single thing that I do.
"Wow you sure move around a lot."
"When are you coming back...cuz I know this won't last long."
"We've made bets...the longest we think you'll stay out there is 2 weeks"
"Man,when are you going to stop being a flake?"
"There's a boy there, huh? I bet that's why you're moving."
"Is the job the ONLY reason you're going? Bet there's a boy up there."
"You know, guys don't really like girls that are as indecisive. it's quite a turn off."
"All this moving around makes you look stupid."
"You'll never find a husband if you don't stay in one place long enough to meet people."
Thanks, to all who've made those comments. It makes me even more determined to leave you behind. And furthermore, I feel a small triumph knowing that I'm getting out of this horrible state and you're stuck. Jealous much? I know that a lot of the people that are the most cruel and least supportive are the ones that crave my feather-complex. I'm part Gypsy, Part RSS, and Part awesome. And you wish you could do what I do. XP
I know what I'm doing is right, as I said, and I'm not asking anyone for their input any more. I've got my own road, I'm proud of myself, and I know that I'm on the right path.
ON ANOTHER NOTE,
Thanks to everyone that really HAS been supportive. I really appreciate that you really do love and care about me. Words cannot express my gratitude to you. It helps me to have faith in myself. You guys are AWESOME!

Go ahead and hate AZ all you want. I love this state, and I don't intend on leaving anytime soon. Sounds more like you hate some of the people here, and not the state itself (I'm not stating fact, I'm simply stating that's what it sounds like). Just wanted to throw it out there, not as criticism at all.
