18days and counting

18days till i leave on the boeing for the ritual 16hrs flight back.

19days till i ge back to london, give or take another couple of hours, and i'll be in my new house, where i'll be living for the next academic year with 3 other fabulous kooky pacah girls, bee nis and jem.

IM SOOOO EXCITED!!!!

haha. yessss, to quote ck raymie (i meet him a few days ago), i'm one of those uk ppl who

'cant wait to go home to brunei when they're in uk, but cant wait to go back to uk when in brunei'.

typical human nature. u knoww.... 'the grass is always greener on the other side' shebang. but i tink no. its more like, too much of a good thing is bad. in brunei, i can eat everything i want, buy (almost) anything i want and i get to drive a car around. i have all the time in the world and best of all, i get to see my family and of course, my sayang.

in uk, i need to think about what i buy, when i buy and shud i even buy it in the first place. there is where i exercise my budgeting skills. despite that, i can still pretty much buy anything i want and get stuff that i cant buy here, like voguer and nicer shoes and winter coats. and the junk food there is just heavenly! then thres the fact that theres no parents, so theres absolutely nobody to boss me around. i can go out whenever i want, however i want. plus, lectures and classes keep my mind from going buntu hehe (see previous post). the only thing missing there is nice weather, my family and my sayang.

so my point is, too much of everything is bad. like with me, i get bored easily. to be honest, studying in the uk isnt all that homesick experience as long as u got great frens who're always thre for u - and i have those kind of friends. i'd say most of us do. so thank u very much to the frens who have been there for me, jaga me when i was damam, cook me dinner/lunch, jalan2x together2x, sleepovers and plain melepak =)

and anyway, we're young, wats a little time away from family anyway? at the end of the day, ur doing ur family back home proud once u get that scroll of a bachelors degree :)

second year, here i come!

now, if only i can bring my boyfren there....
