HongKong Bridge

I'm excited at the prospect of working with Jane in HongKong. She's now working as a pre-school teacher at Computer Tots. Jane is encouraging me to give it a try. They are currently in need of a replacement. And I think her boss isn't finding any luck of finding someone who can speak English fluently and teach computer at the same time. Aside from getting to teach kids which I have always wanted to do, I think it would be nice to be away from home and be on my own for awhile. It will definitely do me a lot of good, especially with my sheltered life here in the Philippines which sometimes makes me feel so restricted to the point that I just want to hop on the next flight out and get away from everything. Aside from this, here are the following reasons why I think Jane's suggestion could be a gooood idea.

1. Place
What's good about this is that I don't have to worry about the costs and hassles of finding a place to live in because Jane already has a place. I could just pay rent even if Jane has already offered it for free. Hehe

2. Culture
Being a native of HK, Jane already knows everything there is to know about the place. So I would have little, if not no problem at all with regards to being acquainted with the country. Besides, I don't think I would need any adjustments at all since I have more or less the same cultural background.

3. Distance
It's not so far away from home which makes it easier in terms of making the decision to leave, because I know I could always get on the next plane ride if I wanted to...if I get homesick or something.

4. Work
It would be fun to teach kids. It has always been my dream to become a Pre-School teacher. I'm a frustrated teacher wannabe, fyi. Hehe

5. Experience
It will definitely be a one good learning experience for me...enough said.

Though as much as I want to pack my things and go to HongKong, I can't. I have to face reality and stop myself from being carried away. I just started my job at Smart this week. There's no way I'm going to resign in so short a time. My mom would kill me. Hehe I just can't keep on switching jobs at my own whim. I don't want to be fickle minded, constantly doing different things without finishing anything. If I don't stay put then nothing will ever happen right? I have to be more patient. I guess the best thing to do for now is to stay put and just finish the contract. Then maybe after I could start considering the teaching job. Besides I don't even know if I could get the job. For all I know, Jane's boss would not like me at all.

It will be a million times more fun if Krizia decides to leave her job in the US and goes to HK to teach. I could just imagine what it would be like with us three working and living together...But then I know like me, she can't do that too. It's just not realistically possible. Well, maybe it is...possible. Is it?
