A Recap

Ok, so my last post doesn't really count as a post. Therefore, I'll attempt to write a much longer one for today.

Let's see.. For the moment I am at my home. By tomorrow however, I will be returning to the island. After what seem like a flicker in the eye, turn out to be a drag of 7 weeks since I last went back to SP. Yeah, I do know the drive home is only bout 40 minutes or so (30 minutes if I am sitting the night bus, 25 minutes if I am traveling with my bro/dad) so in that sense I should go home more frequent than this. Yet I didn't. For numerous reasons really. But I only have this to say - I didn't really see the need to go back. I get to do my laundry at my place over there. I have 2 meals and a half each day. Transport is taken care off. Stock and supplies are more than sufficient to withstand for weeks. Except when it comes to snacks like cookies and all. Those stuff, always run out.

The first thing that struck a chord of my belated return is the sight of the Sejati toll. From the distance, every thing still look the same. The same old plain sight I have seen for 13 years is still intact and all. Yet upon closer look, I noticed, there is a new shop selling tudungs. The old poor clinic I passed by each time (which was always empty) is finally closed. The pot holes at the tunnels are getting way bigger and deeper since I could ever remembered them. Among that, there are things that have changed too. Not in physical appearance wise though. More on how I feel and think about them. Those stuff I rather not talk about them at here. Or rather it is because I don't know how to talk bout them.

The second thing that stuck me was when I checked my Facebook and mail. Arguably, in the past (as well as the present and the future) I am not the type to deal much with such social networking websites. No updates. Not much pictures uploaded. No random memes, quiz's etc. Never did much to begin with. Even so, I felt kinda bad for not replying the messages at there. Especially the wishes. I know it is a bit too late, and I should make the effort to contact every single one of them, but I would like to make use of this outlet to thank everyone. Really appreciate it. And so sorry as well for my lack err everything.

Those thoughts aside, I am gonna try to outline my life at college as briefly as possible. Not much to talk about anyway Basically I have classes from Monday to Friday. Classes range from morning till afternoon usually with some classes taking up the whole day which is from morning till evening. Have had my Mid Term exams. Soon to complete my MPW subjects that is Moral Education and Malaysian Studies in two weeks time. By October 12th, my first paper for AS which is Law will commence. From that point onwards, will have exams for a few weeks with my last paper being the November the 11th. Hence, with the phrase time is ticking.

After that I should have a short break of two weeks I suppose. Though I have no net access over there, safe for the in-between-time I spent on the college's computers, passing time is definitely not a problem there. I avoid using the public computers to access personal websites such as Facebook and blogging account. (But in light of the recent feedbacks, I should really make an exception in that rule)

Other those stuff mentioned above, don't really have much things else to write on. I lead a nondescript student's life. *sad* Though if anyone is looking for any movie reviews on the latest movies, he or she can find me. If there is anything I am proud of late, is how I am embracing my inner movie-junkie. *bangganya*

Anyhow I think I will just end today's post at here. Will come up with another post or so if I find the determination/inspiration to do so.
