i have a major life decision coming at me full speed, and i was hoping to get some help with making the right decision on what to do. so:
i'm 19, i currently live in a small town in california. my friend group are all in a band but music was never really my strong suit so we just hang out and i help them with art. anyways, they're all moving down to Los Angeles this fall and they told me there was a spot for me. But i'm currently enrolled in community college for one more year at least, with scholorships and what not. this would be an easy choice, to just stay here and finish up college, if not for my awful step dad, who had wanted me out of the house since i was 16. he said he's going to be drafting up a legal document stating i will pay 600$ a month to live in this bedroom or i leave for good. he said it will be official next june, which is luckily right after i finish next year of college. i work at a retail store and generally make ~$700 a month part-time. my major is graphic design but i love film too, so not sure yet about that.
so my options, as i see them are currently to
>finish next semesters here in lockdown with shitty step dad and family, core friends gone
>rush out right after semester ends to avoid paying insane rent
>jump right into LA life, transfer jobs, apply for colleges there over summer
or
>leave with them this fall, cancel winter classes
>apply to community college in LA
>settle in and start spring semester
OR
>stay here, finish CC
>stay here but move out, find random roommate in my town
>graduate and move to a place of my choice, leave friends forever (i'm honestly not a huge fan of LA, it's hot, humid , insane traffic and it's kinda dangerous)
i've never moved out or anything so i'd love any advice you guys could give me on this decision. if you have any other questions about the situation i'd be happy to answer if it will help the result. thanks
