Dear readers,

As you may see that I long have not posted a single post these recent few days. Even the best festive season in my life I left it out. This is due to moving to KL for work. Packing, visiting, last looks, promises, unfinished businesses, nervous, doubt, and a lot of thinking is keeping me to a whole new level of thoughts on my future.

What and where will I be in the next few years? Am I going to stay in Kuching and seek life here? How far can I reach my dreams if I don’t move my feet and find them? There are many sacrifices I had to make. The biggest of them all is to leave those who I love… my friends… my grandma… my students… my old life…

I am afraid, afraid of being more complicated torwards my life. I’m not in the stage of studying for a future anymore but I’m looking for one. My dream, to become a cartoonist, is either near or far away. I had to do the first steps out of the cave. Seek the wide opportunities of exploration, new things, experiences of wonder and fear, being afraid and learn to be prepared.

Things may start out small for me. I cannot say how my future will turn into but I had planned it as far as I could. The visions in my head cannot be satisfied until I get them out. I know, life is not as the Sims, but I try to make it the best for myself, for good or for bad.

I will miss all of my grandma, my fellow friends, and some close students… What I promise to you all, I will do it. Even if it rips my skin to do so. My absence will not change everything for my friends, but the absence of the people who cared about me will really affect me.

I know it was a hard decision to make. It already was in the first place. but…

… I’ll be back!
