editing this was one of the toughest thing i've ever done cos god there were so many emotions and memories i had to process. i'm not gonna lie, when the covid-19 affected the uk, i had a terrible time coming to terms that i'll be stuck here & stripped away from various opportunities and experiences that i had anticipated for so long. It's overwhelming because i didn't come from a wealthy background so i worked really hard for the past few years to save money & make my parents proud & to make sure that every second counts throughout my journey here the moment i stepped out of the airport.
i'm sorry if this video is a bit too emotional, but i made a promise to myself this year that i want to create and share something that's real to the internet. Something we may have created a facade to hide away from how we really feel.
but my story does not end here because i still have so many stories to tell. Till then...I'll talk to you soon :)
