Entering The College Realm

Yes, next week I'll be going to Swinburne for registration and orientation. I wonder how orientation'll be like. And to think I'll be missing GB this week and next week(if I do go for orientation on Saturday). Apalah officer tok....mala jak sik datang! Wahaha!! And the week after next week, I''m officially in college! Woohoo!


I am excited to go to college. Really am. New challenges to face, new place to study and new faces. But I will face bad things too. Like peer pressure and all. I just hope I won't fall into temptations. The good thing is I'm here, close to my family, close to the church I grew up in. That is also an issue. Studying here in Kuching, I lose the opportunity to be independent. I wish I would be going somewhere and to feel how it's like to miss home, to not eat when there's not enough money, to do my own cooking everyday, to go fly on an airplane alone and all that. I miss out on all that! And to study out of Kuching, I can run away from certain things that I face here. Not that I can't be independent or anything...I know how to. Just that I'm never in a situation where I'll be 100% independent. Get what I mean?


To be honest, I don't really wish to take Engineering in Swinburne. I wish I was taking Fashion Design in Lim Kok Wing or Raffles' Design Institute. Oh well, beggars can't be choosers. Anyway, Engineering will give me a better career than Fashion Designing. I have to be practical and think of my future. At least there's a subject called "Product Design" in Mechanical Engineering. At least there's something to do with art in it.


Well, I'm off for now. Gotta get ready cos I'll be out..
