Good morning and happy Friday! It's the last day of the semester, the start of a 2 weeks long holiday before a new semester begins. So here I am, typing away on my iPad in the midst of my breakfast, more like my desperate attempt to clear all my food, before walking to college for the final bio class of the semester.
The phrase 'time flies' is an understatement. It teleports. With a velocity so high that nobody even notices. I remember how Janice was a stranger living solo in her room when we first came into the unit. I remember how we went to the city to play until it was past 10. That's when the reality of being an A Level student was still a distance away.
I have never been so positive about the choices I've made, but I can confidently tell you that coming to study in MCKL was no mistake at all. I just learnt that we are probably the only unit in the residency that have dinner together everyday. We basically spend most our time in the common area until its bedtime. We study and laugh, and dinner normally takes 2 hours. I love spending time with these people, my sister from different parents. Be it laughing at Janice's lame jokes, or watching random animals videos with Carissa or debating about economics with Melissa ( She's an econs student and I don't know shit about the economy and I still do it anyway.), I know these will probably be the memories I remember most about this home when we leave for good.
Sometimes, when I'm back in Ipoh, I really miss our long dinners and everyones laughter. We have the most cheerful study time anybody can have. Like seriously. Being with them is never boring. You can trust them with your happiness, you really can. Buying somebody's favorite snack and, hiding it under her bed and drawing her a picture so she'll go search for it, I think it's something that only happens in our apartment.
As for school ( yes I still call it school although college sounds cooler and stuff), I love it too, although I really dread double period maths and physics. Movies with the dudes after Friday classes, and sometimes 2 movies straight. Going to the arcade and watch them drive, playing laser tag and pool, these were all my first-times in my entire life.
And to my driver, YAP WOEI CONG!!! (He made me edit and add his name in capitals.) THANK YOU! See! I said thank you, and dedicated a whole new paragraph to you. Thank you for your rides back home, to Sentral, to Publika, to Subang, to wherever we're gonna go in the future. (And he complained that his paragraph was so short -.-).
Oh crap my stuff is still all over the place and I have 5 minutes left. Bye people! In another 8 hours I'll be back in Ipoh again. Brining Shiloh to the vet later :)
