Email Service Notes 22nd March (Celeste)***

Writing exercise

A diary

Today I had an English class with Joseph. We had a pretty serious conversation though it was the first time I met him. We talked about life and dreams. I knew they were quite old-fashioned topics and they were kind of heavy for me because I were still at loss and in the stage of figuring out. Joseph told me that he thinks life is unexpected, but there are two things you got to find and grasp, one is your other half, the other is your work. The work is not only a job, but also the interest that you will spend your life time on.
The conversation made me face the problem and take it seriously. I have been working in a dull job for one year and a half, which made me become unhappy and self-doubting. The original thought was to have a light and lenient work, so that I could have time to deal with other matters in life, like learning driving, preparing for wedding and developing hobbies. With one year and a half passing swiftly, I felt the emptiness in my heart and I tried to find a way to get out of this situation but only to find myself getting lost and fell deeper.
There are so many obstacles and my parents don’t even support me. They think since I just got married, I should be a traditional good wife who is supportive to the bread winner. So now I am still too fear to tell my mon that I am going to quit. Life is too short and I don’t want to waste my time anymore.
I told Joseph that I am taking this week off. He asked “What are you going to do?” I said “Nothing, just relax.” Maybe One week is not enough for me to find my dream, but I decide to set off now.
