2 and half months passed...

Have been here for 2 and half months, God has shown me his purpose to bring me here. He wants me to grow nonetheless he allows me to learn everything new out of my tiny world.

Western culture, definitely very different than us. Speaking and listening to them (particularly diary conversation), I sometimes cannot fill in the gap. Either they uttering with their slang, or they speak quite fast. Well, mentality is different and understanding of semantic meaning of words could be as well different.

Education system and setting, it is shame to make a comparison. Lots of intervention needed in my tiny country, I am really amazed by their professionalism, proficiency of material resources, teaching standard, and environmentally friendly concept, and others.

Well, what I m really blessed ....

The hall that I am living, is not my first choice. But, I am delighted to get it. My first choice is pretty near bar, if I have to stay there, I am afraid I have sleep disturbance everyday.

Some people have complained about their terrible flat mates being dirty, refuse to clean up mess or making noise all the time. However, my flat mates never give me any such troubles. Sometimes, they even washed up for you.

I have met some nice Asians, I m feel comfortable with their presence, at least they have given me some warmth.

I have a very nice supervisor who really to offer help for my research, I really hope I can get through well with her assistance.

Learning in different environment, is also a preparation for serving community. My strong patriotic spirit is still have flame in, need to be spark up one day.

Culture, is uniquely differential who we are now

Recently learnt about emotion triangle, it said human tends to suppress core emotion, and manifested as either a defense or inhibitory emotion. The emotion that we tends to inhibit are shame, guilt ... There are fear and inferiority that governs my heart - I have to learn to address and admit my feelings better, and make a decision to communicate or set a boundary. It is hard to actually do so, and I know after I have done it - I can sense my guilt and shame. It is like a vicious cycle.  I have to make a promise to myself - be mindful, be steady and let my head clears. Don't react much...But at the same times I am glad that I did say something. I did express myself. I did feeling less intense. I treated it as a progress.  Anyway I felt sorry of the people that I hurt - when I am still a human with sin...

Full stop is not a Stop

My study has come to the full stop. After the submission of my final year project, I thought I will be delighted, yet I wasn't. I was apathetic. No more motivation to complete it, I already forgotten my achievement goals, I have given up. During the phase of life, I felt Life is just ain't about perfection. Imperfection in life is the essence of our growth. In order to grow, old proverb saying "no pain, no gain", it indeed applies to everyone of us. Being through thick and thin, sweat and tears, I started to realise that adaptation to sudden change is incredibly important. For instance, we have a goal to get a First Class Honour in our degree program, but our result speaks no to us. Is it show that we are stupid? Nope, it only tells us that it is a piece of paper which might granted us to obtain better job, yet which class you get is not the guarantee to get a better job. The end of college life, is the start of _______ life. People will fill in the blank themselves....
