If you’ve been following this blog for a while, then one of the things you should have heard about was my decision to move to the United Kingdom, in order to pursue a career in web design. I thought that I would only have to move once, from home to the airport, but it appears that I’d have to move once more than expected.
Things aren’t going too well between me and my father, perhaps because we spend too much of our time together, perhaps because of the age gap between us. Regardless of the reasons, things between us were deteriorating quickly, so rather than let them get too far, I decided to move out, hoping that the change would do us both good.
Ironically, the blog that made me kick off my “career” as a blogger was recently sold for the second time to Splashpress Media and they decided that rather than keeping the editors, they’d use their own. So I’m out of a blogging job right now, but hopefully not for long.
David Peralty has been great with me, and instantly tried to hook me up with some of his contacts looking for quality editors for their websites. Whereas most would simply turn their back to me and wish me well, he went the extra mile. So when you read this David, I just want you to know that I really appreciate all of your help and care, and I’m sorry if I haven’t sound resoundingly happy these past few days.
In a way, I’ve been down for these last few days because I had to leave the house where I was brought up at, and the blog that nurtured me into a decent writer. On the other hand, I sort of feel relieved because perhaps this move will give me the strength I need for when I move to the UK.
Hopefully, from Tuesday onwards I’ll be able to resume work on the redesign when the cable company installs broadband at my mother’s apartment, and I’ll resume blogging here as usual. So I’ll see you next Tuesday readers, and thank you for your comprehension.
Hey Marco,
I’m glad you chose to accept our offer
I think you are a fantastic writer and hope everything will sort itself out soon for you..
Sometimes, it takes things like this to make you go forward.. I was in a similar situation 12 years ago, and because of this, I met my wonderful wife and am now the father of 2 children.
Thank you for the support Kiltak. Thankfully I still have my mother to rely on, but if all goes well, next year I’ll start relying on myself for all of my expenses, and who knows, if life shines upon me, maybe I’ll also be a father of a few
Msg me sometime man…
