It's been already 1 month plus since I came here to US...oh for those of u who doesn't know about my whereabouts, well I'm in Lincoln-Nebraska, US now studying in University of Nebraska-Lincoln. I came here about a month ago, reached here on December 31st 2006...and now it's already February 10th 2007...time sure passes really fast...In fact, I still cannot believe that I'm here! When I first started the American Degree Program, I never can imagine that I would be going abroad to study, let alone to a far place like US! Even though I know taking that program meant coming here later on, I just couldn't see that far ahead...And suddenly 2 years just passed like that and voila, I'm here!
It's really scary the way time passes so fast...sometimes I wish I could stay 18 forever...in my opinion that's one of the best age to live in...LOLX! It's like there's not really much responsibilities except for excelling in you studies. But once when you reach adulthood and have completed your studies, all the other worries start coming in...you'll have to worry about taking care of yourself and your parents...and if you have other younger siblings like I do, you'll have to worry about them too! You have to be financially stable to do alot of things in life and that, of course, is the most worrying part!!
Anywayz, as I said, I still cannot believe that I'm here. The first few weeks when I was here, whenever I woke up from my sleep, I would be thinking, 'Why am I here? Aren't I suppose to be home on my bed?' and after a few seconds I realize that I'm in my dorm...sad huh...When I'm bathing at times, I start to think, 'Wow, this is really happening isn't? I'm really here!'...
You see, I've been kind of dependant and a little spoiled all my life...I have parents that love me very much, a sister whom I know loves me but sometimes act like nothing (LOL!!) and I have a maid at home to do everything for me!! All my life I grew up in a household where studies are my first priority and nothing else. I've never done chores in my entire life believe it or not. I've never washed my own clothes, iron them or wash my own shoes...I've never mop or sweep the floor, never washed any dishes (okay maybe I have but not at home). So I can you can see what a 'princess' life I've been living...but now coming here I have to adapt and learn to do things myself. I wash my own clothes and fold them (yes!!) and I vaccum my own room. All these things I've never done before and it's really showed me alot about responsibility...
As a last note, yes guys I miss you all very much! Especially my parents and my sister whom I've gotten close to only recently...we used to fight alot last time despite the 7-year age gap...LOL! Also my 3 cousins whom I'm close to, my aunt and uncle and my grandmother...And my friends back home...my childhood buddy suj, my all-time friend since primary school, dorin and most importantly, my confidante, mel..sighz...feel quite lost without an outlet channel so I have to turn to blogging! Hope I didn't bore you guys out!
