Looking at the crowing chickens

I was labeled by my travel buddies,  Alicia and Cinyee, as a workaholic. I couldn't agree more as I would lose my balance in life if I didn't work, especially I was in a long distance relationship. I couldn't imagine if I didn't have a 9-5 job to keep me busy and of course earn a decent living. 

I am always thinking of participating more charity events, contribute back to the society, do things that I love to do, but work always in my way, or rather, it has been always an excuse.  And apparently, I am given a chance now, but I do not know where to start just yet. 

Yes, I took a leap of faith, to pursue my relationship by quitting my job and flew all the way from home country to this place where I have difficulty in communicating with people. It is not as difficult as I thought. My the other half has been very tolerant and his parents are being very friendly and nice. I just need to take things slow, step by step and get things done. The priority should be taking the language course so I could communicate, it seems like I have been procrastinating in searching for a school, or at least talk to the maid when I am all day home.

The other thing is to find a way to earn a living, rather, to keep me busy. I am glad there is at least one thing I could do anywhere, which is the translation. It is also my passion in doing translation too. This blog was initially created to promote the service but it didn't work out well. Anyway, I now make a commitment to at least write something once in a week, related to translation or travel. 

I am looking at the crowing chickens, they seems like wanting to tell me that they will help me get through the tough time here. But I am blessed, people around me are very supportive and God has been with me all the time because I feel Him.
