back to life

salam

i'm back on fb and blog after have been away from home for almost 2 weeks. i went to my gramma 's house at Jempol. actually i wanted to go to my uncle's house at Sungai Petani next week but my dad asked me to come back because i have been at my gramma's house for quite a long time. the only reason given by my dad was, i should stay at home because the reason i'm back is to meet my family. and yes, i miss my family. 

speaking of studying overseas, i could say that it's not a bed of roses as many thought it was. it's tough and challenging i suppose. after have been almost a year in a foreign land , i could say that i experienced so many things that made wiser and i enjoy every moment so much. but deep in your heart you miss Malaysia every second of your life. 

there's not doubt that you got to travel, meet the locals, got to touch the snow and i admit that it was the most wonderful experience i ever had in my life. yet, at the the same time you have to sacrifice a lot. you miss home, eat tasteless food, you have to cook ever day because eating outside is so expensive, you cant attend your friends and relatives' wedding, you get to know your new family members just from fb and your little cousin and babies in your family dont recognise you. they would cry like hell when you were about to get closer to them as if you are a ghost. you feel alienated, somehow.huhuhuhu.

New Zealand is so beautiful. you could fall in love with its beauty

academically, it's totally different from Malaysia. one semester is very short. it's only about 4 months and everything is crammed in. previously, we had 6 months every semester and we had very little holiday. do you agree with me? yes right. sehari dua hari je kan. paling lama pun seminggu. but here we have 4 months, with 2 or 3 weeks Autumn breaks, 1 week of Easter breaks, Spring break and we have 3 weeks of Winter breaks. see, banyak kan. sometimes, we need to force out butt to cramp on the chair, finish our assignments.we need to forget our holiday for a while. too many assignments need to be submitted, sometimes i have 3 assignments to be submitted by the end of the week, mati boley..but Alhamdulillah, up untill now i survived.another strength i have besides being a believer of Allah, i have them..my dearest friends..dont be jealous. because they are awesome.

there's a saying, friends are family you choose for yourself...and they are..

sporting habes. layan je semua..


kami bakal house mates except hujung sebelah kiri tu..obviuously..kakaka.they are marvelous

i have about few more weeks before i fly on back to New Zealand. hope, my almost 2 month holiday home refresh my soul and spirit to do better next sem.
