the thing you want the most
...has the biggest catch.
that was the deal I got upon discussion with my relatives. to be able to study for a year, i'd have to milk the opportunity of being there for what it's worth. that means i'll have to look for work and stay there for around two to three years minimum. sad thing is, I won't be going back home for that duration--not for my mother's birthday, Christmas, New Year's... at least not until I get my own money.
my dream has a huge trade-off. and that means having to give up seeing my family, friends and beloved R for a year. now i'm having second thoughts about leaving. a voice in my head tells me that this catch will just be further motivation for me to work hard and study harder. another voice tells me that for the next couple of years, i'll be one of the loneliest souls in the world.
and so it begins.
