No more an Au Pair
My days of being an au pair is over, to be exact, it was over about 4 months ago. I'm now back in my sunny island, back to a place I belong.
Things were kinda funny at first, having been away for a year. But soon things began to fall into place. This time, the feeling of being back is different from the time I came back from the UK. Having living in someone else's roof for a year, I now understand what it is like being a maid.
Being an au pair is not an easy job, but I would say it's really a very good chance to develop one's character. Of course, I feel that I've learnt a lot during this one year stay in the states. Priceless lessons and ofcos, the opportunity to tour around states.
Coming back, finding job, it was a process to start all over again. Seeing friends having a career, having the lives they want make me envy them and made me ponder if I've made a right choice....it has been so many years, me not having a "real" job. Reality began to set in, and I was upset for a while, deciding what to do with my job.
But all's well now. I'm starting work next month and I'll take one step at a time.
