One Step Closer to Nomadic-To A New Chapter of Life


In just one week, I will be leaving my first full-time job with Fox Sports. It has been an interesting three-year. From knowing absolute nothing about baseball to having a favorite team to root for in MLB, I am surprised to see myself doing alright in this male dominated industry. So why am I leaving a secured job and becoming one step closer to "nomadic"? What does the future look like for me? And will I be happier?

The answer is not definite, but I surely hope it's promising and full of interesting adventures. First thing that I planned after the quitting is to go back to China and visit my family. It's been over three years since last time I went back. To be a real traveler, I should really spend more time to explore my home country. I got a few places lined up, and can't wait to start the trip next month.

One thing I know for sure is I will be planning a lot, thinking a lot, spending a lot of time in coffee shop working on new career skills, and meanwhile I will have more time for traveling and acting. Will it work? Will I succeed? Well, I will never know if I don't give it a try, right?

Ask yourself, what do you crave for your life? Freedom, adventure, the unknown, or stability and everything under control? Life offers some interesting and conflicting choices. I enjoy the nature, but get scared by wild animals. I like to be carefree and just wander around the world, but I also like metropolitan fashion and spend time thinking and creating chic styles. It's hard to find a perfect balance that can fulfill your desire but also leave some room for conflicting interests.

Last and the most important is: I know I feel happier in the end if I follow my heart and make efforts to keep trying. Not be afraid of new adventures is always my favorite rule of living.
