10 Days before the Departure

Talked to PoXiao(alias) last night and he said that he found a job here in China mainland. PoXiao was a senior when I was in high school. He is also the one who took me into the furry fandom. I was not familiar with him during high school time, probably not even at this moment, but I know him better, at least. He said he received an offer from a company in Wuhan, China. The initial salary is about 1.2k to 1.5k CNY per month and there would be a raise if he does will. He accepted that job. I was happy that he could find a good job. I mean, at the first time I saw him, he was just 3rd grade in high school, and now, without the concept of how long it has been, a person with various computer science knowledge and has a bachelor's degree from some college in the UK.

How could time flies so quickly? I know we all have dreams, but not everyone can arrive at the end successfully. Even if some did, the process would be usually sophisticated, complex. Some of the factors are due to fate and others could be determined by ourselves. I guess that is analogous to Deep Learning, in which some of the procedures could be understood and others cannot.

International students from China are excruciated by extravagant plane tickets, the global COVID-19 pandemic, and other bad things like prejudice over race. There is also another friend, one of my best, just arrived in Canada. He had a tough experience, like a serpentine river, about the departure due to policies here. Fortunately, they made it.  I wish the best of luck to both of them.

The loneliness accompanies me for over 2 years. I become numb about everything that happens around me. I know this nonchalance is bad, but I have just been crippled by this pandemic, maybe addicted to it. I am solitary.

I hope the future is better than I expected and I can get a happy ending like the one in fairy tales. With my competence, agility, and kindness, I believe there gonna be a way to resolve any difficulty in front of me.
