Long Time NO Blog (A Little Sad Note) Saturday, December 26, 2009 1:29 AM
Until now, it still hasn’t sunk in me. Our visa has already been approved. FYI, the consul who interviewed us looked like David Cook with no hair hehe. In a month, I’ll be leaving (though there’s still no exact date yet). I already passed my resignation letter. It’s really one thing that makes me sad. I already loved my work, my team and the environment in Thomson. I don’t know if I’ll be able to find the right combination of good work and amazing people to work with. And I don’t think I’ll be able to find a team who’ll BULLY me every single day. They express their soooo much love to me by bullying me.. that’s really SWEEEEET, right? Knowing that I’ll be leaving soon, bullying is NON-STOP!
Another thing is that I’ll be leaving my friends. Camcam already left and that makes Jesijesyty only 8. And when I leave they’ll only be 7. I spent more than half of my life with them and we’ve been there for each other in the most special events in our lives, may that be good or bad. And I can’t imagine being away from them. We’re like sisters and it’s really sad to be away from them. I’ll also be leaving my college friends. I’ll really miss how they tolerate my insanity at times and how they can keep up with my crazy ideas. This kind of friends is really hard to find and I know that I am very lucky to have them as my sisters.
Another is that I’ll be leaving my family though Mama and Daddy will be with me. I’ll really miss Empy sooo much and of course, the kids. I just asked Janelle if she’ll miss me when I leave and without second thoughts, she said yes. I can’t imagine that they’ll be big already when I come back so I am still hoping that I won’t stay there for long.
I think what’s really sad is that I have to let go of the things I already learned to love and things which became part of me already. I got the job I want and I even got amazing people to work with (that’s really a plus), I already got the best friends and the most amazing family and I have to start over without them all. I really fear starting all over again.
But who am I to let go of such a good opportunity. A lot of people would do anything just to get what was already at the palm of my hands. And I know that this is a blessing because I really prayed hard. If the visa will be granted, then this is for us, if not, God has better plans. And it seems that this is his plan. I don’t have to be that sad because I’ll be with my mom & dad and that’s more than enough.
