9.23

Hey. Wow. I am back.

Haven't blog for more than one month, I just break my own record didn't I? But no worries, life goes pretty well here. Firstly, I landed at kl for CLP course on the 10th September, which is about two weeks ago, and thanks to shu ling, I get to stay at her awesome condo atm. So yea, it has been two weeks staying at the capitol of Malaysia, Kuala Lumpur. I can't deny, I miss the UK, I miss the chilling weather, it should be autumn right now back in Cardiff. I miss the law school, which is just 5 mins walk from my house, whereby it takes me about one hour to reach ATC (my college) now. This is a brand new experience to be honest, taking bus which is surrounded by Malays, Indians (not to be racists), passing through petaling street as if I am a tourist, and lastly going back home using lrt and U5 rapidkl.

So-called Life, the best way I could experience the inner part of Kuala Lumpur I suppose. I see what I've never seen before, neither in Kuching or Cardiff. How contradict it could be between London and Kuala Lumpur, the lifestyle, the culture, the people. I see poverty, they gathered under lrt station, begged for money or just sat there with aimlessness. In contrast, you might see people mostly suit up passing through the London underground,  and others who perform to earn living expenses. Of course there is poverty in the UK, but you can't really find the 'kelam-kabut' scenario. Malaysia doesn't deserve that, really.

I guess what I've learned from the three years studying abroad, is Perspective, the treasurable perspective. Your abilities to look at the world with different thought, different mindset. How different it can be? Who are you? Who are the people around you? These are the questions that no one could answer for you except you yourself. It's no longer about getting a good grade in the exams or securing a job in a top firm, it's far more than that, the once in a life-time experience.

Till the next time, take care everyone!

P/S: what really matter is not the failure, it's all about picking up yourself to embrace the trial, and you're never alone.
