2016-10-27 It has been a long time since I last logged on to Italki. During the last two years I had moments of my life. I've travelled many places and I got my first job. Me and my boyfriend who had been together for more than 5 years went through a hard time. My first work was devastating mentally and physically, and the vulnerability inside me bursted out taking away my joy and gratitude toward life and people. Since I couldn't keep going on in that situation, I decided quit the job but then I chose to stay again but in a different department in the same company. It's been a year since I started my job and it's only a week after I moved to the new department. I came home today at 10 p.m. which means that I worked overtime 4 days in a row. What a life... How much I should try more? How can I just ignore people's expectations on me? Do those expectations even exist or is it just I am being so naive?
