I'm here

7th of July, I went to KL. I packed all my things on the night before. I brought so many things. 2 boxes of goods and 2 bags of clothes. And still not finish yet. I also brought a pail full of things, mostly is detergent. And some foods… I am so nervous and scared. I cried. I will surely miss my mom and my home sweet home. As I said before, family is the one who care the most of you. I am scare of being alone. All this while, I always mix with a certain kind of friends in secondary school. During secondary time, I mix with a lot of people because secondary life is the most carefree life. Nothing to worry because all you need to do is to study hard and play hard. That’s all. We also stay with our family who always help us to do all our things. But for some of my friends, they are very independent. Since primary, they know how to take of their stuff and their life. I envy them because they can live on their own. Now is my time to be independent. I went through so many ups and downs then only I can come to here. I am going to start a real journey. A journey that will decide my future. I will definitely work hard and will do the best of the best that I can so that I won’t let my family down. I always tell myself after I decided to come here, “must study hard get good grade and get scholarship”

After being rejected for so many times. I decided to come here. I will continue my journey-a new one, with new hope, new energy and new friends.

But this journey is so different from my expectation. I need to be more independent. Unlike studying in the previous college which I choose to let it go. I can always go home during weekends. But that is not what I wanted. I always dream of going overseas to start a new life. Sitting down here, typing this blog makes me feel so alone. I never felt this way before. I am so far away from home. But not as far as some student here who came all the way from Africa. But yet to me it is consider far. I miss hope already when I reached KL on the 7th. But by that time my dad is still with me.

Today, the 9th of July, I registered and checked-in to the hostel already. I am now staying with a new roommate from north too. I am glad to have him as my roommate and not some other people. Because he is from the north too. Simple as that. I think my phone need to reload regularly from now on, because I call home frequently. I will change my service provider to Digi because it has a better rate and my mom is using Digi too. So it will save me a large sum of money. I need to save as much money as possible because I really don’t want to burden my family so much. Studying here is not easy for me and my family. So will try to find some work during semester break.

I will try to concentrate on my study more and get to know some new friends. Starting a new life in a new environment is not easy! But it is not that hard too.

Wish me luck and take care for those who is reading my blog.
