Loan on me

So I think that, if I still haven’t found a job by the end of February, I’m just going to try to get a loan and use that to move to NYC. Yeah, I know – how stupid is it to go into debt to move to a city where I could easily fail within the first three months. I really really hate the idea of going into debt before I can even really start my career, but it may be the only way I can get there in a remotely reasonable amount of time. There are almost no jobs here. The jobs that are available, I’m overqualified for if I can apply for them at all (some higher positions require me to have things that I don’t have). There’s no photography work here. I could go to St Louis or Kansas city, each about 2 hours away from where I am now, but I still couldn’t even go to either one without either getting a loan or working for a while before hand. So why bother with either of those if I’d be in the same situation as I’m in with NYC?

This sucks. Blah. And I still don’t get how I can be overqualified for something. It’s just an alien concept to me.
