TODDLER IN LONDON
Hi Steemians,
I know it can be a boring post without any pictures but I just felt like writing what I'm experiencing in a new country. So, I was always a shy kid in school days, people who know me now finds it hard to believe that I was shy and people who knew me then are surprised to see the new me. As I started my schooling it was hard for me to get adjusted to a group of new people, I got bogged down and started searching for that one good friend around me. People keep saying school days were the best days and would like to go back to school days but I some how could never manage to make best friends. Had a few but never really got bonded very well and each year the slot of friends changed.
Entire 12 years (including kinder garden) of my life in school I managed not to have a best friend and that continued even in my 11th and 12th grade. Soon after that my life changed and was bombarded with a huge bunch of friends in my college though I dint wanted them in my life.
Yes, that’s right. Being alone all these years had made me a sober person and really thought these friends are just not of my type. Tried a lot to stay away from them but that never happened and slowly started liking them and also knowing what actually friendship was. Started enjoying their company and the sober me had already turned out into an fun loving soul. I realised there is a crazy girl in me who is extremely talkative, cheerful, like to play around and have fun.
Time just flew, and it was already 6 years of togetherness with that crazy group. We had our ups and downs but at the end of the day we would be there for each other. It was time for all of us to start a new phase of our life and get promoted from students life to a work life. But still we were some where close to each other and would meet when ever possible. Three more years passed, and the friendship only got stronger day by day.
And in no time another new phase popped into my life where I was left with none. I got moved to a new place to experience a new phase of my life that is all the way to London. I had absolutely no friends here, felt like a toddler all over again struggling to meet and know people. The struggle was real and this time it was even harder than the last time because I had no one around me. Started roaming around alone and found few friends but finding job is another task. Three years back once i was out of the college what I went through is repeating in my life. Applying for jobs on job portal and getting rejected.
I know only few people get to leave their life again and I'm one among those. Though I'm leaving the struggle part of my life again, there is a hope that I will come back stronger than ever. All thanks to @steemit because of which I keep myself occupied with something productive and get connected to people. This platform really helps me to think and write what I feel and make contacts.
That's it for today and I'm back to my job search struggle. And if you can relate to the struggle don't forget to UPVOTE.
See you Soon
Love from London 😉
