Its been a week since i started university life, and all i can say, it was a roller coaster of emotions.
It started with orientation for about 3 and half days. It was pure torture and hell. The OC aka orientation committee, didnt help to make it fun. All i heard during orientation was "PANTAS SISWI PANTAS!", "AWAK MENGANTUK, ORANG LAGI MENGANTUK! AWAK PENAT, ORANG LAIN LAGI PENAT! JANGAN JADI SELFISH!", and some other stupid stuff that i didn't even bother listening because i was too busy trying to get some sleep. During the briefings, the ones that weren't too important, i'll sleep. Other times i'll sleep and i do not care if people judge, some of them probably went through the same thing. Orientation starts as early 5 am till 1 am. I did not have any time to waste. During hell week, as i prefer to call it, i ate in the fastest time recorded by me, i ate the least ever recorded by me, and had no time to freshen up myself, thoroughly.
Whenever i checked my phone for messages, i'll start tearing up with even the slightest, "hai, are you okay? how's things?". I'll admit it, i was really homesick. Only god knows how many times i've cried in that span of 4 days. I didn't have time to talk to my parents, especially my mom. It was frustrating because she didn't get to send me to university and was too busy with her work, not that i mind, but it still sad. When i finally had the time, i bawled instantly, she was more than shocked. She didn't expect me cry that hard, because i've been a strong hearted person in the family and the toughest among my close friends. Throughout the phone call, i did not stop crying at all. I kept on saying i wanted to go home, i wanted to change campus, i wanted to change course, asking her to do anything she can with her power to get me outta of this hell place. It took a while for my mom to calm me down, but she did it. Home sick was real.
Internet here is like HARAM! I have to walk everywhere in the room to get connection, most of the time i don't. The other thing, here in university, is bloody hot! Can you imagine, walking from my kolej, to the academic buildings, which is on the other side of the world, its far as fuck. And the heat isn't helping not one bit. It takes about 15 minutes to walk if you are walking a normal pace, and less if you walk faster. Oh yeah, one thing, i gave up with my useless internet, i bought an internet broadband that is shared with my 2 awesome room mates.
My room mates are the wildest bunch of all. Im grateful to have them as room mates, who aren't shy and scared to open up and laugh till you are in tears. We compromise with each other and get each other too. In one week, we got closer to each other and already hoping to be room mates in the next semester. Insha Allah...
My classmates are nice. Well, its only been a week though. There's still a lot to discover. I've come closer with some of them. The down point of my classmates is there's only 3 boys. There was 4, but one had to moved for personal reasons. The dude that moved away was, honestly, hot. He was even a gentleman, from the 2 hour he sat behind me. But at least i got to talk to him, even for a few minutes. His name will forever remain a secret. I planned to keep low profile this time, after being famous during school, i thought it should be cool to blend in once a while. I told my friends about it. Well, of course they laughed and didn't believe it. hahahahahah The next day, i was appointed leader for one of the groups in english class. My low profile didn't last long. The day after that, i was appointed the treasurer for my class. So much for that huh?
Later of the week, i had to go for extra curriculum, which kinda stupid seemingly i'm already 18 and don't need any of this shit anymore. But since its a subject, so i have to take. I took up brass band, something close to my love, music. There were only 2 people including me who knows how to play the piano. I even in a higher grade than the diploma president. But he's probably has more experience.
That's all for now.
