fear of the unknown


Tomorrow is the last day of my contract. It also marks my 11th month in China. It's been barely a year but I feel so much older. I think I've grown up in more ways than I ever expected myself capable of.

In a week's time, I'll be on my way to yet another journey. There's a part of me that is deathly scared of going out there trying to find another job. I have no idea what I'll find

This is familiar. This is safe. This is comfortable. Yet I know that if I stay I'll forever be thinking of all the other places that I wasn't able to experience living in. I have to go. There is really no choice but to go.

  4. I still can't get over how this is supposed to be a draft! Notice how I stopped in midsentence. I haven't exhausted this topic yet! Aaaargh! I will have to blame it on my headmaster who suddenly wanted to treat us to dinner. Sigh.
