The Month After



It's been a month since I moved here. It's so weird. Time moves so quickly. Fall is starting and its so cold! It's been raining and windy. It's so weird. One minute its sunny, then its raining REALLY hard and then its sunny again.

Amusing.

Overall, I really like it here. I feel so balanced here, somehow. I stay home and be a nerd for most days (cause I'm anxious about the exams!!! Exam is in 2 weeks and I still dont know a n y t h i n g about Financial and Management Accounting), and always take a night out (usually Wednesday cause its student night and theres happy hour in this bar near our school ;) yeah I'm a cheapskate) to just chill and meet new people and be retards with the people you know.

Or compensate the amount of sugar intake by substituting tram ride home by walking. Although the perimeter of sugar overtake and working it out is always assymetrical ;)

Academic workload has been rough, but I kinda enjoy it. It's a fresh change from letting cobwebs and dust occupy my brain. It's amazing how we have to do everything ourselves here. Independence is inevitable, yet enjoyable. I wonder what my parents would say if they see how I do everything myself. Their spoilt girl is learning, one step at a time, eager for new lessons everyday.

People might think from the pictures that I posted on my FB that all I do is party. They couldnt be more wrong ;), since I dont post pictures of me behind the vaccuum cleaner or studying behind books. But I'm glad they take it that I am happy here. Cause I am.

I've stopped comparing my life with others, and decided to grasp every opportunity that comes in my way. Maybe thats why I'm so happy. Most people think that their lives revolves around great things, so they wait behind the steering wheel for great things to bump them. What they often miss is that great things are often disguised as small things. And that's perhaps what I learnt most here, that by the end of the day, the little things is what matters most.
