1st sem (06/07) ... over and done with =)
2006-11-14, 11:58 p.m.


Today my 2 week semester break has officially started.
My grandma, her friends and my brother picked me up from my mahallah (residential college).
It has been a while since I got picked up by grandma (yes, she drives).
The last time I remember, it was my late grandpa behind the wheels.
I truly miss seeing my grandparents together.
I know the company of grandma’s girlfriends can never replace the long quiet drives they used to share…
Wait. Okay, maybe not so quiet cos grandma’s pretty talkative, hehe… ;-)
The way grandpa would sit back and listen to her talk and talk and talk… some people may call it nagging.
But not grandpa, he’s always ever so willing to listen to the woman he loves.
Ever so willing to take her side and be the backbone of everything.
They complement each other so much… =)
And I know he never did stop loving her that way til the last day he lived.
Atuk, I miss you so much… the feeling heightened incredibly now that I am hanging around the old house with Nenek… and not seeing you walking around like you used to. It hurts. Still hurts.
I admire grandma so much for her strength.
I know it’s not easy going through her days alone.
I wish I can be there for her all the time… but with the commitments I face in Uni, it’s hardly possible.
*sighs*
I miss hanging out with old folks.
They have this tendency to spoil you, lovingly… *hugs*

So, what else is new?
Hm… =)
My parents are contemplating whether or not to move into our new house in Negeri Sembilan.
So, this holiday is the time mom chose to experiment living in it.
This means,
I will be going to and fro from KL to N.9 on almost a daily basis.
I will be busy moving and helping to assemble stuff.
I will be spending a lot of time with my family and exploring the new neighbourhood.
I will be pretty busy.
I don’t really mind this, but I initially wanted to hangout and catch up with friends during the hols.
There goes that chance.
(ps: I know I tend to say this all the time but, “next semester ok?”)
Thank you for your patience.
Patience is virtue, remember?
*ahem*
;-)

Btw, if you’re Malaysian, have you been watching the UMNO meetings broadcasted over the news?
I have been following them on and off.
From my observation, our politicians are sure fancy talkers.
In forwarding their objectives and points, some speeches are made into songs and stories (haha…)
Perhaps it’s to grab attention or make their talks more interesting… but still, I can’t help but laugh at some, um, ‘amusing’ methods. Hehe…
Anyway, this doesn’t mean I have no sense of patriotism whatsoever, so -
Hear, hear for Malaysian politics! *grins*

I am slowly coming into terms with myself lately.
I think I’ve learned a lot this semester (like every other).
Not so much academically (unfortunately), but more in terms of myself as a person.
It has been very eventful as it is messy.
I am beginning to recognize more of my strengths and flaws.
I think I have to start taking good advice.
I think I have to learn to face my fears better, stick to my decisions and deal with them like a real man (excuse the gender based expression ;p).
I know I have to take responsibility of my actions.
I will re-prioritize a lot of things.
I admit that I can be wrong and make mistakes in certain issues.
I admit that I can be ignorant of what’s really right for me.
I am thankful for the people I have in my life who cares about me… enough to be there at times I really need them.
I hope I can return the favor, if ever needed =)
Thank you.
*hugs*

Xoxo.
