Long Break

Back to work since April 2008. As a volunteer and then an instructor. Now full time work. Having taken a long break, my feelings are:

1. you had time to chat with people who normally you did not have time for, such as lunch with friends, no matter where they worked, and visited relatives, who you normally met only during CNY;

2. you could study anything you like, no matter they were held in daytime or evening, and never missed any class due to work commitment;

3. you could read a lot of books and magazines, this is the part I liked. No matter long classic or short novel, you could enjoy them day after day;

4. you exercised more;

5. most importantly, you had time to think about yourself and decide the next career you want.

So, try taking a longer break, say 3 months or more, and you definitely feel the difference.
Remember, this is a special stopover in your life for you to get re-changed and keep going.
