Moving to England next month. Talked to my mom about becoming a translator and my major. I agree that majoring in international relations won't produce the right outcome for me and that I could find the same type of occupations that I would find majoring in it, as I would in another field. But liberal arts, despite the fact I love the studies, seems too vague and I want to feel like I've chosen something more tailored. Liberal arts are for artists and teachers- which wouldn't produce the income I expect for myself. Having researched it thoroughly for a while now, I think that a major in communications/PR would best suit me.
I have to go to work soon. Despite the fact that my boss and I don't always get along, I will miss the work I do here. The trade shows have offered a lot for me and I've had a lot of suggestions to offer. Hopefully those suggestions will someday be taken into consideration but for now knowing I have something more to offer is enough. Honestly, I think I could do a good load of positive damage to this industry. Social interaction is my forte, after all, and a lot of what we do here revolves around that. The weak link that needs to be perfected- the distrust with Yuetching and I remains mutual. I'm out for what I want out of this and she's out for what she wants. And we are both stubborn. Let's hope we can find some stability..After all, we're all in this together..The best outcome from this all is that I've learnt that I need to suck it up more. There's probably tons of people far worse than her that I will have challenges with. I'm still going to put my best foot first!
I will miss the people I've met at the trade shows and my colleagues...
