9 MONTHS

Hi guys! I’m back again as i miss tumblr so bad. It’s so appalling, time shouldn’t fly this fast. I have been move and stayed with the Müller since 31 January, they are just simple, lovely family. I honestly fall in love with their kindness and humor that I don’t really understand..

Speaking of the school, it is a nice time and memorable period. I know many cool people-- all most all peeps in E-Phase. 

It’s quite varied from my culture, when people greets each other, we just say hello. On the other hand, the people here does shake our hand or maybe hug each other. This kind of culture relieves me somehow, as I also miss my family and friends too.

On the plan obviously declared that I am flying back on 25th June. Nonetheless, my dad called me and asked i could arrive home earlier. They couldn’t put an effort waiting for me anymore (I think so). 

In term of language, German, I assume I could understand a lot, more than before. I am able to understand the lesson in the class (I still act like Ich verstehe nur Bahnhof since I do not want to do any class work.) Although there’s not much problem in listening comprehension section, my speaking part doesn’t improve that much, instead of being able to say it directly, people still has to interpret what I had said. 

Well, it is not 9 month or something, it’s the time i will never ever going to forget it.

There’s nothing which lasts forever, no party that has no end.

I think I am ready to go back to my reality, my world, my family, my friends.

But how could I suppose to say goodbye to my another home?

5 MONTHS        

              I started my exchange year with the preparation camp took place in Manheim. The plane arrived at Germany around 5. 45 am, it was such a terrible feeling conflicted in my mind. I was totally intriguing to begin to walk out of my comfort and don’t-want-to-leave zone, it was too early to walk and find and carry your 34 kg baggage which you had brought it like two day and its wheel doesn’t work properly. 

               Everything seemed to be completely arranged. It turned out that we had to wait for the unscheduled bus. The way to our camp was considerably the fatigue activity I have ever done in Germany. Nonetheless, I was helped by many gentlemen there, thanks god, I did survive until now.

                 If I weren’t that exhausted, I would have talked and make a group of friends. After I roughly carried that huge and fucking-used-my-energy-up luggage upstairs, I met a tall girl who was at the airport and always leaned on my bag, ended up 2 times fell down on the floor with an impressed sound. And one another, who seems not that kind of easygoing. They become my roommates with a great deal of adventure to be told.

              My first host family is thoroughly nice, yet their lifestyle is somehow not the way I could withstand for 10 months. I don’t really know what inspired me to change, still I couldn’t agree more to say that it’s better to stay here(the second host family) than there. 

              My second host family are somebody I have knew before. They are a working machine. From 10 am through 11 pm, no weekend obviously. Some of them told me, their job makes fun. As you wish. And the man there, host dad, told me he will definitely help me to find the host family, as I haven’t seen any progress so far, I made a decision to leave. He came up to me with a dubious question which after I reassessed, I busted out into tears.

              I was massively enhanced and advocated by my lovely teacher, she looked for the host family. She own a pure heart,which I will cherish forever. She managed a schedule for me and my host brother/sister to have some small talk. It was such a great moment..

              Now, 23/1/2017, I am waiting for my Area Coordinator to create an appointment, that I could relocate into their house consequently.

So people, I hope you could stay strong and always think positive. Life wouldn’t be that rough, your life reflects what’s on your mind. Be a Proton! Be Positive! 

I hope you had had a great day and enjoy your life :D

Nate’s Journal 

I was given the super fun task of illustrating Drake’s journal for Uncharted 4. These are my favorite 10 spreads, there are 33 in total. I also did a lot of the handwriting for handwritten note pickups. 

I think the coolest part about the whole thing is my young nephew and cousin came to visit me at the studio. I was showing them some stuff I worked on and my cousin goes “so wait… is Nathan Drake’s handwriting your handwriting?” I think my cool aunt/cousin status tripled that day hahaha
