Why Im Leaving AFF..
Hello everyone,
So this is an entry explaining why Ive stopped writing. Other than the fact that I dont have any good plots lined up,the main reason is because in almost a week,I will be moving to Korea. Im going to be studying the language for nine months before joining university in the fall. Ive been trying for this for two years and today I received my visa and Im ecstatic. This was my dream and now its being fulfilled. I dont think saying stuff like "Oh she has awesome luck" makes sense because I worked for this. Days and nights,I worked hard so that I could get into a good Korean university.
In order to study a language and become fluent in it,one must completely immerse themselves into the culture of the said country. Otherwise,there's really no point to it. Thats why I plan on abadoning English completely unless I have to use it in interactions with friends and families. I think if I continue writing,I'll just be studying Korean half-heartedly and I dont want that. I promise I'll work really hard and keep all of you in mind.
I know most of you are upset to see me go and get no more updates from me and to be honest,Im also going to miss everyone's overwhelming support. In the past two years Ive grown alot and its safe to say,you guys have played a very important role in shaping the person I am at this very moment. Two years ago,when everything in my life was falling apart,I could have never imagined that one day I'd be going to Korea and having a new life. And I so desperately needed to start over. Today,as I was returning home with my visa,I realized I was on the same road where in October 2010,I had cried all the way home because my exboyfriend had been flaunting another girl infront of me and he refused to even talk to me..as if I was invisible. I felt so miserable but then today.I was smiling and happy and you know? Those little things we worry about..they dont matter. They arent the end of the world. All those problems that look so big to you now...with time...they turn into something insignificant and you cant help but smile at how silly you were back then. Remember...even if you fall,it doesnt mean the road is over. You will have to find within yourself the will to survive because no one will do that for you.There were times I doubted my dreams would ever come true but at that moment,I'd always remember my friends words "Once you take your eyes off the dream,you only see the obstacles".
Dreaming,Ive learnt so much of this phenomenon from that Jung Yunho who inspired me to pursue my dreams and not give up just because everyone doubts you. There are so many things that he has said that have touched my heart and given me the strength and courage to pick myself up,dust myself off and carry on. Life is hard,thats just how it is but if you let your insecurities and your past damage you then you'll never be able to move forward. Its okay to be sad..but its important to be happy. Good things happen if you think positively. I dont know,if I'll get a chance to see Yunho,even from a distance,but,you know sometimes, just the fact that we're under the same sky,breathing the same air,maybe even laughing or crying at the same time...it makes me smile because he exists in a world where I am aswell. We exist together.

As a promise to my friend xxmizzxx,I will continue to post blogs about my life here so if you want then just check those out. Maybe I'll write oneshots if I get too lonely but I cant say anything for sure. I really want to thank all of you for standing by me and enjoying my work. I hope to see you all one day when I finally launch a book and you guys come to the book signing <3 That would be something huh? Haha! I leave this site with a bitter-sweet feeling. I hate to say goodbye but then,I have a chance to say alot of "Hello's" as well. With a heavy heart,I bid you all farewell...and Light Up My World will be my last story here.
Thankyou. I truly treasure all of you.
Hera.
