Me and my family are looking also. I'm still researching what area will be best for us plus I'm planning on transferring to KSU and attending hair school so it looks like Cobb County will be the best area.

The only problem I'm having is that my favorite aunt doesn't want me to move but I'm just not happy in Indy anymore; there's nothing special about this city. I sent my resume to a couple of companies in Atlanta but I have yet to hear from them. Like I said, hopefully I'll be in Atlanta by next summer and I hope you will too!

The job market isn't great anywhere so don't let that hold you back if you have a dream you are trying to accomplish. Plenty of people tell me stay where I'm at but if I'm not happy and not making any progress....

Good luck...don't keep putting off, do what's best for you and your family!

Have you thought about work-study or temporary positions at the college? It may not be much money but if you could supplement what you needed with your financial aid refund then it may work for you. HTH!

Thanks for the positive words; I'm still sending out my resumes to different companies in the Atlanta area so I'm praying that a few of them will respond soon!!
