yesterday, our office PRO asked me to sign some papers for the cancellation of my visa. I have less than 3 weeks in the office and will be going home to my country the day before Christmas. Naturally, I'm excited! I haven't been home for Christmas for 2 years now and my family is thrilled that I can be with them this year. But i also feel sad and a bit scared that I am leaving my friends here and turning away from a secure job just to appease my folks. My future is quite shady right now because I am not sure what the outcome for my business plans will be. But the decision has been made so I'll stick with it. I was just thinking... wouldnt it be a lot easier if people didnt have such complicated feelings? Now I have a mix of emotions... I hope it's just excitement, no fear or sadness.

hi ddaguno oh my that sounds lovely for you to see your family at Christmas again after missing them for two years. b ut of course when you change your work you change a good bit of yourself too.Naturally giving up a good job for something You do not know what is going to happen is unsettling.Yes life would be easier if we did not have so many sets of emotions that will all go off at once.I think whenit all gets settled down you will really enjoy being hone and you will get a great job so don't worry it just be happy. okay?
