You guys ever feel like...
evan the dude:
^^^Thanks man, I really appreciate your post. It made sense.
I would've gone more in depth with my situation, and explained it more, but it would've ended up being a 4 page essay haha. I tried to condense it as much as I could. It is definitely a complicated situation. Like you said about not totally leaving my good friends, I totally feel you. At this point though, while I'm still in Fairbanks, I know that I just need to STEP away from them and look at the whole situation from an outside perspective. Then, and only then, will I really get a grip on what I really need to do. And I feel the best way to do that is to move away from my home town and get a new aspect on things. That talk about "that's when life really kicks off" got me goin haha.
Thanks homie.
.....And to everyone that replied thank you. I read everything. It means a lot.

Well, Evan the Dude,
first of all, it's nice to see that you have figured out for yourself when and where things went wrong. That probably is the most important step.
As for your problem of responsibility, I know what you mean. When I was 17, I moved from my own sheltered town and the cosy high school I had finished to the big city where I live for 5 days a week on my own. To add to that, I went there to pursue my education to become a teacher...a responsible job indeed. I didn't start teaching from day one, but I was barely 18 when I first stood in front of a class (made up of 17 year olds!) I didn't teach regularly then, but still, I had to do it. I also had to take responsibility for my own food, my own buying what else I needed and many other things I had barely done before.
The very first day on my own,I had to go to my new school where me and 249 other freshman, none of whom I knew, were send to a camp where we had our introduction days. All of this was a great learning experience for me, not in the least because I happened to get laid for the first time during the introduction days ;).
Anyways, we must all come to terms with growing up to be responsible adults at some time. And if someone doesn't, he or she will become the person that still lives with his or her parents while 42. A position none of us should hope or aim to be in.
As for my friends, all of of us went somewhere else and though we still have contact, things are more difficult then they were in the past. You do tend to grow away from each other.

Been there.
Your true friends will support you in doing what it is that is good for you. I learned this and found I had more real friends than you thought. They'll give you some friendly shit about wanting to see you more, but in the end your friends really want to see you be well off.
Also man...if I was leaving Alaska for Cali, I'd be happy no doubt. Just bring me some Alaskan Thunderfuck and I'll hook you up with some CaliMist man, we'll get blazed as fuck.
