End of a chapter?

I know I've been terrible at updating my blog. If my sole reader (you know who you are!) didn't update hers, I wouldn't be writing this right now. Ever since I came back from my trip from Asia, things went back to normal with a dash (ok more a slab) of disappointment an annoyance in the professional level (5 interviews later, rejection, massive overtime at work, realizing i'm at a dead end job), I had an epiphany and decided to drop EVERYTHING I have here and try my luck on the other side of the world (literally). Drop my current job, family, friends, everything. Going into a foreign country with no job waiting for me on the other side. Scary you say? You betcha. Exciting? Hellz yeah!

It took me a while to realize that I have always been "babied" all my life and had a safety net called "parents". If something goes wrong, ask parents for help. If something breaks, somebody was there to clean up the mess I made. I was never fully independent. This is an opportunity for me to have a taste of independence, a 6 months trial. If all fails, I'm going back home. GO BIG OR GO HOME, at least that's what they said.
