Life, update

"Don't ask yourself what the world needs. Ask yourself what makes you come alive and then go do that. Because what the world needs is people who have come alive” ~ Dr. Howard Thurman

Tanjung Lobang, Miri
This is the 8th week of my holidays, just how fast more can time slips through my fingers. Life has been somewhat inactive in the past 2 weeks, slacking with the absence of exciting events around - waking up at 7-8am, newspapers, nba playoff, babysit a bit, lunch, a little reading, online, minor exercise, dinner, a little bit of kiddie songs on the piano, online, doze off. In addition to the routinely activities, I enjoyed occasional outing with Mr.Whosetheboss who has not deserted me complete despite his hectic romance schedule nowadays, played basketball, played badminton, visited the library and swimming pool which cost me my swimming trunks.

Best Friends
On top of that, I have been pretty close with a very important person in my life hehe, to be completely honest. I guess I couldn’t help it as we had lost contact or we had not really been in contact for a long long period of time. Well, it’s nothing secretive or too personal to be discussed here. Instead of having restless tongues jittering endlessly and words being passed around uncontrollably, I think I might as well mention it here responsibly and open-mindedly, of how great she has been to me for the friendship and motivations she has brought to me. Like many people out here, we’re both arriving at one of the vital crossroads of our lives, trying hard to sort out our lives ahead. To all my friends, it won’t be easy certainly, but with enough zest and zeal, we will all discover our own paths ultimately! After all, we have all been blessed enough to meet and bond with each other in our lives. Let's work hard together, vamos a trabajar duro todos juntos.

Gang of US Invaders
In less than 4 weeks time, I’ll be leaving this city and in another 7 weeks time, I’ll probably be on my way getting out of this country. For those who are concerned enough, please do the calculation yourself alright? Hehe. My departure may not be something significant, for many have taken the same path. From the very beginning, everything came as a surprise. Escaping from the tyrannical rule at home was somewhat momentous for me. Now, I am given the ticket to the land of freedom and opportunity (which is also the land of prejudice and racism, pray for me lol), the country named the United States of America. I don’t have much idea about what’s gonna hit me over there and how well will I be able to cope. But it is my intention to confront the whole new land, cultural and people head to head in hoping that the cultural shock will be drastic enough to shatter my frame of reference tainted with unreasonable social conventions, reform the long list of social norms and expectations implanted in me and shake off the dreadful punishment oriented upbringing that is shackling me; So that I can finally explore and discover the possibilities in me, and return as a reborn person to live a better life of me, and you.
