My regret...coming to California. Yea, I learned lessons but being here, I missed out on spending time with people who I can't spend time with anymore. I've missed so many birthdays and just being there with loved ones. I'm thinking that after I finish my degree, I'm going back home. Being in California isn't worth it for me anymore. I'm over it. Close to the end of the year, I plan to have enough money saved up. I want my own but I know it isn't going to happen that fast. All this time wasted chasing a dream that still hasn't happen. My passion for that dream is gone and I really don't have any plans to make it happen. I'm over it.
I understand how you feel. When my husband and I decided to live here in America, we missed many birthdays of our families. We chose to live 10,000 miles away from them because of my husband’s work. It was a big adjustment for me, adjusting to the culture and finding new friendship. I had regrets because it was hard for me when we were starting. We searched for a local church where we can serve and we also found a life group. We are now settled here and I can say that I am comfortable staying here even though I am far from my family. We visit them yearly and we connect through social media everyday.
I’m sorry to hear that you feel this way and your passion for your dream is gone. Try to connect with your family regularly and I pray that you will have your passion back. Praying for you that you can still enjoy your stay in California while you finish your degree. I hope to hear from you again. God bless.
