I almost do.

I want to keep those people important to me close. My friends, those people who I can vibe with, who can understand me, who supports me and my comfort.

I may not be able to be with them all the time and in the future, but I hope to be in the same place as them where I can easily see them.

Since last year, I have experienced a lot of new things. I have been to a new country, I am adjusting even for the language people are using. Being far away from home is extremely difficult. Especially since this is my first time. This is different from moving to another city... in here, the people are different, everyone has their own different culture. Most of them are just getting through the day, working or studying. Meeting and having a new friend is challenging. I gained some friends but I only had one close friend. Those others are just like acquaintances, we haven't specifically bonded aside from the time that we became classmates. (Maybe because of age gap and different priorities in life.)

I am thinking, would I be able to settle here? Have a job, a career, friends, and maybe meet the love of my life? (lowkey cringe haha)

Hi! Long time no post. I have tried a new sport. It's ✨tennis✨.

I wanted to try and learn to play tennis since I have watched the anime Prince of Tennis back in elementary. It isn't a popular sport back in my home country that's why I don't see any courts nearby and I am not really an athletic person so... long story short, I only watched it on anime and played on my parent's phone back then XD

Until this year, May 2024, I finally had a chance to hold a racket and try it. FINALLYYYY. It's all because of my new friend. *Thank youu!* It felt overwhelming at first. I am so shy and nervous to hit the ball XD

I only have a few sessions, mostly once a month. Even if my progress is slow, I am happy. It felt like, it is not too late for me to have a new hobby, try a new sport, be physically active, and experience things I haven't before.
