New Chapter In My Life

The moment i step into Inti International University ( Nilai ) , I knew that a new chapter in my life has begun. A new challenge that i must face. For the first time in my life, I got to be independent and stay in a hostel far far away from my parents. I admit all this while i was sheltered, pampered and protected from the harsh cruel world. I had my own bedroom, I didnt have to do housework ( except for folding the clothing =p), I had transport wherever i go, etc ( the list can go on and on and on ). But now, everything is different. I share a bedroom with my roomate , Jie Hui. I got to do my own laundry and believe it or not, i dont even know how to use the washing machine!!..I have to bathe in a public bathroom which is full of flies ( huge grasshoppers, flies, big red ants ).

The first day in INTI NILAI..

Honestly, it was one of the worst day in my life. I was feeling homesick, missing my parents and friends alot. The only thing that kept my mind of everything bad was orientation. We were divided into groups. We had to come up with a group name, group cheer and we played team building games. It was actually fun but some of the games were really lame. But as soon as i got back to my dorm room, i started to picture my friends and the memories we had together. I wouldn't deny that i did cry that night. I couldn't imagine living in this condition for more than a week, what more 2 YEARS. ( yup, its 2 years unless i get into a ivy-ivy league university which is completely IMPOSSIBLE =.=).

The 2nd day-4th day..

Things were getting better. Made more friends..had more fun..attended orientation night and American Independence Night..I realize that inti is actually very happening if we actually join the events and clubs.

The 5th day..

"Showtime" day.. had to perform out group cheer, inti song in the most creative way and lastly our invention from a piece of blank A4 paper..everything went well and we WON best invention..^^..surprise cause it wasnt superb..but give props to the presenter..he really did a great job in entertaining the crowd with his hilarious presentation..The whole event only finish at 1am...although was extremely tired but still got laundry to do. So I brought down 2 bags full of laundry..had to walk 4 floors down..=.=..and the worst part was our block didnt have a washing machine yet..so the guard directed me to block J (Jenner)..when I reach..a senior told me it was spoiled..so she directed me to the block opposite block J..but apparently it was the GUYS block..so i wasnt allowed in..so was then directed to block E which was extremely far away. I kind of got lost on the way, didnt really know where it was situated. So i stop at a block ( which was block F ) and ask for directions. I was asking the guard, but then this guy ( he was quite cute =p) who was sitting nearby answered me instead. He told me that this block was F. I really look like a completely lunatic i guess. Cause later on when he and his friends walk pass me, they turn and look at me. So, guess my first impression in inti is a freak..sigh..

Today...

Uncle pick me up to overnight at his house. Finally a sense of home at last. ^^. Went to Sunway Pyramid cause apparently my uncle had to meet up with some friends. So shop around with my cousin and ended up buying some stuff for bla bla bla. =D
