Hey hey, I haven’t been updating my blog for a while. Well, life’s been pretty busy so far. But im doing better everyday. I have friends that I can trust, friends that I miss overseas, and friends that I love back at home. My family’s been supportive and they’re doing well. That’s always good to hear. Studies have been not too bad. My scores are average… Geology has been interesting topic. It is something new, and it has been an eye-opening experience. I’ve grown an affinity towards rocks and nature, which I think is a good thing. I’ve drawn myself into liking the existing planet of ours, how it formed, how it evolves and how it will change in the future. It is the endless journey of understanding the truth, but for now, I know that im slowly fathoming the reason, why I am here. Why everything is the way it is. This also establish and make steady my own principles which I've held on to for a long long time..  Aubrey has been an awesome friend. She’s kind and nice, always there to help. Understanding, Gentle, caring, She has a beautiful family. And I appreciate being a part of it during my stay at her home in St Louis. Ethan is an awesome vegetarian friend. He cares, understands and makes me laugh. Though we both have our differences and argue about things that we don’t agree on, nevertheless, we’d say sorry and make up just as couples do. He’s been great help, a good listener.. Trey and Aimee are two of a kind They’re awesome in soo many ways.. They entertain me with her lame jokes, and are always there when I feel alone, at times of need. They showed me the different side of the American culture. Not always a good one, but still, it’s enjoyable. I see love and family through their eyes, and their presence never fails to cheer up my day. To all Rolla Inn Empire residence… owh, how much I loathe thee!! I am happy to be in the Rolla Inn, and will always be a part of it. The Empire was my bridge to the school, my bridge to the campus, the society, to America. It is my first ho me, my foundation, and will always be. I’ve learnt things that I do not understand at the time, and now am able to be on my own. I’ve met great leaders, awesome friends and many other connections that make my stay that much more enjoyable. To all campus friends, hi’s and bye’s, friendly smiles and all… they’ve been the pigments of colors that spread out on my field of blacks and whites, here in the states. And slowly, they’ve made such a beautiful painting….  I’m starting to feel the cold air … and im liking it… :)

It's freezing cold today, when i woke up. Partially it's because im wearing short pants... but it was about 4 degrees. Sigh, things go slow when it's cold. People become lazy and tired...

It's been a looong time since i've updated this blog. I was going to, but i never really find the time to do it. But here i am now, sitting alone at my floor lounge and typing away...
Keeping myself strong, and telling myself everyday that i'm doing this for the right reasons, suddenly im coming to a piece of my mind..
i regret not having enough time to spend with my family and friends, i regret not having the time to always keep in touch with them,
but i dont regret making his choice, and from this choice, i found new life, new friends and a wonderful journey waiting ahead of me...
p/s: Thanks Aubrey & Ethan... for making it tad much easier...

Warning!!
This is going to be a looong and boring post. Sigh. I am now currently, at my uncle's house, in Kepong, updating you peeps, live from the hands of Jojo.
All the way from Kuching, Sarawak, i dragged 20 kgs of stuff across the South China Sea, and landed at in KL. Then it's off to KLCC to settle things with my sponsor, before driving all the way to Sunway Pyramid to meet up with my close peers. Then dinner, at New Paris Restaurant, and now...
Well, personally im having mix feelings right now. I'm not sad, or angry or happy or emo or anything. I'm just fine.... too fine..... in fact, I dont really think that's a good/healthy thing. Hmm.. I should be missing a lot right now. Food, Family, Place, Town, Friends, Car, Stuff, My creative thingies... lolz..
I do, deep deep deep down inside my heart, i really do. It's just that i dont show it. Well, not to a lot of people. I really am going to miss the past. All the times in KYUEM... chalet gossips, visits to the blackhole, knocking on chaer's window to wake her up for dinner, waiting for the guys to come to the DH, RC revision nights, cafe night outs, jogging, Mr D's maths classes, Mr Hanson's chem classes, Physics, IELTS - No... ENGLISH classes... all the witty teachers, how Pn Rog likes to brag about her students, how wonderful Mr B can be, how nice the technicians really ar, how grumpy the cafe staff are, how tasty* DH food was, swimming classes with Mrs B, the horrid monkeys at the guys chalet... my fishies...
Then there's my gang, or clique you can say. Our photoes together, the time spent, the secrets shared, feelings, emotions, the love... sigh. And of course my family, whose ever so proud of me, no matter what i do, or what i decide. Who's soo near and yet soo far, who will always miss me back at home, and welcome me anytime. Who's willing to go the extra mile, to earn the extra cash, for my luxury, who loves me just the same, no matter how big or how small i may get...
Of course i will miss them, all of you people!!!
Im saying this now, because frankly im just bored and i cant sleep, after the shot of caramel macchiato... Am i ready for this new life? Or this extra chapter in my life.... Yes!!!
:) Bye bye Home(for the time being..) and, Hello USA!!!!
My next post will probably in some airport, or in the states!! Keep in touch everyone! This wont be the end of Ah Jooooo!!!

I'm leaving on Sunday, wheeee.... ??
Everyone's talking about treating me breakfast/lunch/dinner. Everyone's psyched up cause someone they know is going to the states! Me?? Im soo thrilled myself! Before this, i can only dream of going to the states.. and when i load up my results page on Monday the other day, i didnt expect my future to come soo soon....
Anyway, im not gonna bore with all the thrill and excitement of me going to the states (*oh boy, i could type like a whole page of those.. hehee), instead i think there're some things that i would like my friends to know... esp those who love me.. who keep me near at heart!
 First stop, a simple poem..
I dont blame you for not spending more time with me, I dont fault you for not congratulating me, I dont fine you for your punctuality or your flaws, I dont mind if you dont say goodbye at all...
I'll be sad if you take me for granted, I'll despise you if you dont accept my gifts, I'll never forget if you'd ever abandon me, I'll always remember if you'd ever forget..
Long story short, I want my friends to know that.. ( point form some more.. ) - I will be fine, dont worry (esp for Stel - love you always!) - You wont lose your friend, because we still are, always! - I wont be mad, if you dont come to the airport, SERIOUS (*elaboration later..) - When im silent, it doesnt mean that im emo-ing.. i may be thinking.. :) - I tend to keep emotions and feelings to myself, so dont expect me to cry.. - But that doesnt mean i dont have feelings.. i do, just that i dont really express them - I will definitely miss you guys!! - I will come back and we will see each other soon, kay!
esp stel!!! Be strong!! :)
p/s: Azwan, wake up soon!! Everyone's worried about you!!
