And now, I'm left with nothing...
(It's just lyrics. I don't feel mentally down or anything like that.)
It's Thursday, and school's out tomorrow. It's a public holiday, probably somebody's birthday or something, who cares. Orientation camp is tomorrow, and I'm looking forward to it, I think. Still don't like the fact that I'll lose 3 days of good sleep and random trips around town, and that I have this Physics test on Wednesday which I'm 100% unprepared for.
Everybody, and I mean everybody, has been asking the same thing over and over again, every single day, till I literally run out of words to say. I got bored of using the same sentences too often, so I just smile and say 'It's awesome' as an answer. Honestly, KL is treating me really well. I have my old friends here, and of course the new friends and my bro I just Skyped with last night. It's home here, really. The only thing I miss about Ipoh is my family. That's about all. I still have a long list of old old friends I want to meet up with, but hell they stay so far apart I don't really know how we're gonna see each other.
I came home from school today, and well, I figured, making this place home for another 17 months, no problem. I kinda like my life right now. I know, the quality sucks, our food looks mehh... But BUT, it's dead delicious I feel like patting myself on the back every dinner time. And the way we fool around the kitchen and laugh and teasing like nobody's business as we eat is... Well... Home. These people, some I've only known for less than a month, they are practically like my siblings now. I missed life here when I went home last week. I really did.
Then walking to school every morning, going through boring classes and joking around during breaks, these little things, they make life worth looking forward to. At this rate, I'll probably refuse to go home in June 2014. I'll go work and earn money and rent myself a little shoebox flat here and live here for good.
I'm surprised by the way we adapt to each other. Living together isn't easy. But we're doing it now, and we learn, to embrace flaws and to laugh about mistakes, and to talk about feelings. At home, I don't really tell anyone anything. I'll just solve my own problems, locking everything away from everyone else. Being here, I actually have people to talk to, face to face, privately, not through the phone or Skype or in school, in public about stuff that is bothering me. And it feels good. Now I realized how lonely I was back then.
So, I'm good here. And I hope you're happy too =)
