Its a weird feeling I’m having. 4 years ago, I was having much reservations about switching jobs. To leave a place where I was so familiar for about 10 years and having to switch to a brand new place then was quite a terrible feeling. New place, no friends, no buddies, no support watsoever. But my ex-boss told me what he felt about me. His advise then was, brave the storm, whatever storm there may be. And he knows I am the sort that will not fear or back out in the face of the adversity. Hmm… And so, now after sitting on this very interesting job for 4 years, its time to bid the department farewell. Although my plans ain’t gonna materialise (at least not in the near future), I’m now reserved about going back to my roots. Hahaha… I like what I am doing. Wrong! I LOVED what I am doing now. But sadly, I cannot be sitting on this job for the rest of my career. I wouldn’t be progressing further if I were to stay on this current post. There were already plans for me to move since last year. But I opted to stay and now that I’ve “progressed”, its only right I go back to my roots.
How time flies. It was like only yesterday when I first started on my first issue of my magazine. Now, after 16 issues and much transformation, I’ve to relinquish my duties and hand them over to someone else. =( I’m both sad and glad at the same time. Sad, becos I have to leave. Glad, becos I know I’ve done a good job. In fact, I think I’ve done a GREAT job! There were quite abit of stuffs that I’ve done to improve on the overall standards and quality of the magazine, which I was doing. I’m proud of what I’ve done. I’ve no regrets. I’ve done my best. =) I can lift my head up high when I look back at the 4 years I was here. And I’ve made alot of friends throughout these 4 years (all over the place, actually). It will defintely benefit me in my career. I’m quite sure. I’ve already established myself as quite a reputable photographer. Let’s not be sad about leaving my present place. I should focused on doing my next job well. And I know I will and I could. Looking forward to the new place. =D
