…I have had.
Maja’s joke made my day. I haven’t laughed like that for a long time. She says she likes sharing the happiness, and indeed she does.
So Jason has left for Dubai. He corrected one of my mistakes before he left. I admit it. I did misjudge someone, but not in the way that Jason said. Whatever, that doesn’t usually happen.
From the day I joined the company, I devoted all my energy and time into work. Too much energy and time that I haven’t taken really good care of my life. Returned from Sri Lanka, I indulged myself a little bit. Drinking and staying late, watching world-cup and flirting with girls. Suddenly I started to realise that I am actually quite lonely in this city. Where are all my friends? Why am I working so hard that I haven’t even got time to made any new friends yet? I know, because I have a plan, an ultimate goal within my 5-year career life, and I want to stick to the plan. But it’s never easy to stick to the plan.
It happened to me before though.
I also felt lonely when I was in Stirling, especially during the time I lived in St Ninians, on top of the hill. I felt extremely lonely at that time that I tried to give up my plan several times. My plan was to learn whatever I could learn and enrich my life experience as much as possible, and I will gain what other Chinese don’t normally gain when living abroad. I came over the loneliness. I did learn a lot more than most Chinese did. And I’m sure I’m already benefiting from my overseas exp.
So I have the experience of gaining experience. I set up the goal, made a plan, then stick to it, as easy as that! This is a colorful world though. Targets are easily lost. ‘Don’t blind yourself!’ my mom always tells me. Thank you mom! I love you!
I’m not lonely, because loneliness is with me. – Jason told me that, purely classic!
