As you may have noticed, I haven’t updated my blog for a while. It is because I have been extremely busy. There have been so many things going on in school and work that I hardly realized that March has already passed. Here, I would like to update you on what had happened to me in March, what I am busy with right now, and what my plan is for the future.
A Taste of My Dream
The biggest thing that happened to me last month would be start accepting project as a freelance designer. I have only done some small projects so far, but already feel like stepping closer to my dream.
Work and school are in full swing already so I hope that I will be able to spend some time on my portfolio and my new website next quarter.

I came across this quote yesterday and feel that it’s especially true for my current situation. 2 weeks ago, First Mutual contacted me for another interview, but I turned it down. I knew that I was not ready for an interviewing challenge yet. I had lost my faith.
I couldn’t believe that I would blow away the same opportunity again and again, as if I had made no progress in the last 2 years at all. What a loser! I finally realized that I will never be ready for a new life if I stay at my current job. The job does me no good; it only limits me from learning the language, meeting new people and fitting in in the new culture. I fully understand how hard it would be to get a job in this economic climate and that I can be unemployed for quite a while if I quit this job. However, my soul is worth way more than 800 bucks a month. I wish I had noticed this earlier, but better late than never. I decided to work 2 more months to save up more money, and then quit the job in mid June. Can’t wait to have my life back.
What Will be In Store For Me?
After June, I plan to focus on learning English, studying web design, experimenting with digital art, and developing my freelance website. I don’t know if this is my calling, but I have learned that you will never know what is right until you learn what is wrong. I will keep my fingers crossed.
keep it up babe!!! I believe you will get to your dream in one day, just don't give up.
P.S. Nice call for quitting that stupid meaningless job currently have now.
great i hope to see you
