Last night there was a sister in pkv asking me where i come from. Overseas, i said. She looked at my with wide eyes. Sarawak, i said again.

"Wow you come from all the way there to study here in UM..."

"Yes"

"When was the last time you go back to your hometown?"

"Erm I've been here since late June when i came here to study."

She looked again at me with wide eyes.

"Do you miss home?"

"Quite"

For numerous time i've heard these questions, and i always (or mostly) give the same answer. People like to ask another question, "Did you cry when you first come here?". I didn't dare to answer this question, at first, i just laughed it off. Now, i will say yes. No longer do i feel shame of saying "yes". For some time i think i should be honest to myself, although sometimes i can feel my eyes wet when talking about what happens before and when i just came here. My roommate likes to say, "Lucky the college activities make us busy then i have no time to miss home." Well, it's quite true, though.

Now there're twenty days left for me to fly home and i'm very excited about it. What is in my mind now is not about the exam, but about what should i do, what i want my mom to cook when i go back home.

Yea, home...

Re: Human and Animal

I feel so touched after reading your latest post, human and animal. I hope you are feeling better now. You make me want to appreciate my family more, with my parents and grandparents' presence, my brothers and sister too. It's a whole and yet i was rebellious and disobedient. I realise that how blessed i am with them all around with me, though now i live far away, but i am still cared for. I can't imagine what is your emotional turmoil that you have been through, and i don't dare to imagine because it's so heart-piercing thinking of it. However one thing i know, it has make you stronger, stronger than anybody else. There are people impressed and amazed by your personality, your determination, and i'm one of them. You are not only a friend to me, you are so mother-like who really care for people from the bottom of your heart. I feel warm-hearted whenever i am with you. I believe it's the Lord's blessing to me to have you as a friend, i'm really thankful for that. I hope you can get through your sad feelings and become stronger. May God bless you. :D

Hi there...

Ok get another blog started. I'm now in the canteen with my laptop, let's see, there're five people with me on the same table, jane, fen, pei yi, ah fu, and ping. There's an Indian Community function here in canteen today, the speakers are loud, and i wonder how can i stand the loud noises staying here online-ing. Now people are arranging tables and chairs back to their usual places, i think it's late and people are tired so the chairs and tables are dragged all the way from places to places. My ears was rumming from all sort of noices already tonight, thought i can get a rest for my lovely ears when the event ends but now comes the dragging sound... However the event was very interesting, they had performances and games, which were very entertaining. Moi also took a pic with melissa, she looks very pretty in her sari... Hope this blog can last longer than any other which i'd opened before ba... :D
