Leaving and Moving On

I've just watched the newest Glee episode, The New Rachel. In the story, Rachel got a scholarship in NYADA (New York Academy of the Dramatic Arts). Although she didn't move to another country, Ohio to New York is quite far. And then suddenly it hits me, I've only got two months left before my leaving.

I once tweeted...

"Leaving a place you've visited almost everyday in two or three years ain't easy, but we have to be flexible because that's the consequence of growing up."

It was just a few months ago when I graduated from junior high school. However, this time, it's going to be like 100000000x harder than that, because I'm not only leaving a place I've been visiting for the last two years, but I am going to leave the place where I was born and raised!

I'm afraid that I might end up like Rachel, alone in a new place, without my family and friends. Although some part of me is happy that I can get the priceless experience of living in another country, it's undoubtedly hard because it's like leaving everything behind you and start a new 'life'.

And then, I watch Castle, the final episode of season 4. One of the most interesting scene is Alexis' speech, about moving on.

"There is a universal truth we all have to face, whether we want to or not. Everything eventually ends. As much as I've looked forward to this day, I've always disliked endings. The last day of summer, the final chapter of a great book, parting ways with a close friend. But endings are inevitable. Leaves fall, we close the book, you say goodbye. Today is one of those days for us. Today we say goodbye to everything that was familiar, everything that was comfortable. We're moving on. But just because we are leaving, and that hurts, there are some people who are so much a part of us, they'll be with us no matter what. They are our solid ground, our north star. And the small clear voices in our hearts that will be with us. Always."

No matter where, when, and how I will end up, I know that there will be some people who will always be with me. These people are my solid ground, my north star, and the small clear voices in my heart, who will never leave me no matter what. Even though we are seperated by oceans, love will always overcome. :)
