Hello, I'm Bhu and I am a translation major student in university. Let me tell you a little story about me.

I was a 5 years old child when my parents divorced, they left me alone in this house, dad went to the USA and mom I don't know anything about her, Both of them left me here by myself... I had no one, no family; a lonely miserable little boy. I learned how to do everything all by myself, from cleaning my house, cooking, studying... Found myself a job, even though I was a little human being, I needed to eat when nobody knew that there's a lonely little child that existed in that place. Every single day after school, I went to work till late at night.
A lot of people asked me about my parents, and why am I working instead of playing and staying at home safe like every other child around me.
remembering those days when I got sick, I didn't know what I should do, what's wrong with me. I prayed a lot every night, that things would get better someday.
My birthdays were the loneliest; watching all the kids celebrating theirs, their families wishing them happiness and good fortune and giving them cakes and gifts. I couldn't relate to any of these things, my birthday was just me there studying or working, i hated it.
There was that nice grandma whose house was located on the second road. I didn't know her, but she always cooked and brought me a plate of her food. It was so good for my tummy, even though it's so lonely here, and i never saw her, I felt warm. The bad thing is, A week passed and that grandma didn't come anymore. I asked people about her, and there was the sad news, she passed away...
I felt lonely again, I had no one, that small happiness and warmth she gave me was priceless, and was the only hope I had, and now i had lost it .
I continued my ugly sad life, all alone, I worked even harder as I grew up; the road to adulthood, I'll call it that, wasn't easy for me, it was the hardest road a little kid could ever go through.
Depression and anxiety were fighting inside of me all the time, But I had to stay strong for myself, i had to keep fighting for a better future.
I graduated from high school, i studied so hard till I got a scholarship for to the translation university in Bangkok ; it was the happiest thing that has ever happened to me.
