Sorry guys for not updating my blog, letting it to collect dust.
Give me some time, I will slowly update the blog with some previous events and moments. Just give me some time. Hee.
So... BAAM! I'm now in Australia already. Amazing isn't it? Was still in Malaysia the previous post and now in Australia already. Hah. funny me.
Everything feel so different here. The people, the lifestyle, the culture, the language, basically EVERYTHING. And I ain't feeling very good for this change. I am still adapting and trying to fit into this new society. Sometimes I have to admit that change is good for enriching our experience and make us grow and learn to be a better person. And this is a process that we have to face everyday, either willingly or subconsciously. But, as a person who doesn't really like changes and is very attached to the same routine will find this rather stressful.
I feel as though I'm dreaming. I feel like this is so not realistic. I feel so untrue. Am I really here in Australia already? I can't believe this. Until the weather reminded me : Yeah bitch, welcome to the lalaland.
Today is the 8th day staying in Australia. I can still remember how much tears I've shed and let out countless sighs. I've now slowly accepted the lifestyle here and am able to catch up the locals' pace. I've learned to figure things on my own, be independent and try not to make mistakes, well I mean, severe mistakes like offending the law. This is no longer a "Bolehland" so it is impossible to break the law and run away after that. Haaaaaa. haaaaaaaa.
Somehow, I still miss my family. I miss home. I miss my parents. I miss my doggies. I miss the food back there in Malaysia. I miss my friends. I miss my past university. No matter how good Australia is, I will always prefer my homeland. Glad I've made some friends here. At least they provide me with mental supports to go through the pain of homesickness. I feel like crying every time I think about my parents. But all I can do is to control my own emotions, be strong be tough and be a good girl.
Glad to know Cho Zin, Samantha, Candy Valentina, Lee and Samson have always stayed by my side and especially Sammie who has always granted me the closest feeling of a friend here :')
Some of them cope very well. They're here just for a few days and they can party hard, go wild, traveling everywhere in the city. But me, I still prefer the laid back lifestyle. Sit down, drink a cup of tea, watch some movies and chill. Some people might think I'm such a antisocial bitch. Some of them even think that I'm wasting my parents' money if I don't learn to live the way they do.
Am I really wrong? Do I really need to change myself this way? I don't like to party. I don't like to drink. I don't like to be at some boys' house until late night and hangover the other morning. I just want a normal life like hangout to the beach with my darlings and honeys; go grocery shopping every weekend; go to the mall looking at the nice outfits and telling each other not to buy them due to tight budget and all. But am I not supposed to be in this way? I'm confused. Should I change myself in order to be socially accepted or stick to my very own style and be me?
Tell me about it.
Sigh. Here comes my mood swing again. Bye. Talk to you later.
Oh yeah, a small greetings to everyone in that typical Aussie slang.
Btw, I'm now studying Public Relations in Murdoch University, South St Campus.
"G'dai mate"
Murdoch University.
Campus sight.
My study table. And I bought that study lamp. Freaking Murdoch Student Village didn't provide us with it.
Brought my plushies along with me all the way to Australia <3 xoxo
Cottesloe Beach.
Me with shades!
Bitchy sunlight at the beach. Utterly shiny and such a pain in the ass for human eyes.
Samantha from Singapore. Sweetie pie :3
Awesome breakkie cooked by Candy who just live downstairs. FATE <3
Blue blue sky, green green water.
Tidbits at night, on ze bed, with le toys.
From my window, scene of my hostel area.
Kept telling myself this and hope alls well went well.
And here's the one song that melt my heart

grew up in a small town,
and when the rain would fall down. i'd just stare out my window.
We are what we pretend to be, so we must be careful about what we pretend to be. You cannot find peace by avoiding life. I wanted a perfect ending. Now I've learned, the hard way, that some poems don't rhyme, and some stories don't have a clear beginning, middle, and end. Life is about not knowing, having to change, taking the moment and making the best of it, without knowing what's going to happen next. There are two basic motivating forces: fear and love. When we are afraid, we pull back from life. When we are in love, we open to all that life has to offer with passion, excitement, and acceptance. We need to learn to love ourselves first, in all our glory and our imperfections. If we cannot love ourselves, we cannot fully open to our ability to love others or our potential to create. Evolution and all hopes for a better world rest in the fearlessness and open-hearted vision of people who embrace life. Last but not least, life's hard. It's even harder when you're stupid.
