how's life?

Just an update on how's life over here, just because everyone has been asking me how's life every now and then especially a few Whatsapps at the same time that I even had the thought of adding them into a group named - 'Joey! How's life?' haha. Nah, not that I'm frustrated, instead am very appreciative of the concerns and some noticing my absence in Kepong :P

Since I have not been reporting the full how's life in KK, I'll do a slightly detailed one here (provided I'm able to remember every thing :P)

 

Things that are challenging:

1. Bathing with COLD water! (shivers)

2. Eating the same old food every few days

3. Always lose to the battle to get up the shuttle bus

4. Attending a new church (yes, I am very attached to Bethany :'(  )

5. No PORK! :(

6. Managing time (study.class.chores.food)

7. No GOOD coffee

8. When loneliness hits

Things that I'm super appreciative:

1. Those people back in Kepong that spends time calling me or talking to me on the phone/Skype

2. Mum that now am so active in Whatsapp just to always reply me and check out how am I 

3. Friendly roommates

4. Prayers from everyone (it's important)

5. There's a shopping mall near my Uni!

6. People that bangs my loneliness away with a call / text

Things I am currently living with:

1. Walking a lot, like A LOT

2. Spending lotsa time at my study table (cz I'm lazy to always climb up the upper deck bed, not that I'm studying)

3. Always managing my expenses

4. Super early sunrise and Super early sunset (I feel jet lag :P)

5. Constantly arranging my table cum cupboard (cz I've got very little space to put my things

6. Loneliness when there's nothing and no one, except drama

Things that make me happy or I feel bahagia

1. PORK and good food!

2. Seeing cars from KL

3. When I get to sit in a car

4. When I get to wear short pants

5. When I get to drink dairy products (cz I don't have a fridge in hostel)

6. When I know I am not lonely :)

Nevertheless

I want to thank God

For being with me

Sustaining me

In times where I feel lonely and lost

from the west to the east

And on the 1 September 2013, marks the day I left home to further my studies. Being the one that leave ain't a good feeling at all. I will definitely be missing and still missing the people back at home. And I am super glad and grateful for my dear family and close people that came to send me off (am seriously touched) Couldn't thank more but promise I'll take good care of myself these few years.

Dear family

Important people in life

On the first day I reach there, decided to sleep with parents in the hotel, cause I know I won;t get to see them any more, also due to the fact that the hostel is not so nice (need time to digest). On Monday night onwards marks the starting of the Minggu Suai Mesra (Orientation) for the first year students. It's in the Dewan Canselor which can sit around 5000 people, huge!

A panoramic view :)

My tag!

Basically our orientation is more of sitting in the hall everyday and listen to talks and talks and TALKS! And I'm a pro in sleeping during talks. Haha. It's too boring. We don't have those senior bully juniors stuff (Thank  God)

On Wednesday is the important day, there's a dress code, everyone gotta dress up with white top and black bottom and guys a green tie and girls green scarf. Cause it's our Majlis Ikrar dan Aku Janji, where it marks our start as a university student *smiles proudly*

On Friday night there was a talent night, where there was drama and songs and dance, was fun and interesting but too bad, I slept half way through :P

There marks the end of my MSM@UMS :)

Few things that is remarkable for me:

1. I walked a lot, a lot, A LOT! Each day at least 30 minutes to 1 hour
2. I sang the school songs more than 15 times! (makes me feel like I'm graduating)
3. Eating daging everyday, cause I don't want ikan and ayam :P
4. Learning to bathe with cold water, without screaming
5. Charging gadgets everyday (phone, power bank, tablet, broadband)
