Experiences Are Spices Of Life…

When I first stepped into this college, my small heart was filled with mixed emotions. I still remember how I gripped my mum’s hands when my car passed through the guard post. I know this might sound silly but that was what I actually did…!! Yea… I was really scared and for a split second, I did think of running all the way back home, on my feet!! But of course that was impossible unless I have some sort of magic power or something like doraemon with me. I was unsure whether this was the right choice, whether this was what I really wanted and whether this was really what God have set for me ever since the first day I laid my eyes on this magnificent world. But now, I can gladly say that I am indeed very happy to be here….!!

Well well well… Lets start it off with all the bitter sweet moments that I have been through here. I have never stayed in a hostel before and this is my first time being away from my beloved parents. Even though I stay in melaka itself , *LOLZ!!!!* I still consider myself really1000x far from my parents. It was really hard for me at first, everything was new and I had to do everything on my own. The painful fact of not having my parents to cry to here and the fact that my mum is no longer by my side to hug and console me when I need her really took the smile away from my face during my first few weeks here. I found it absolutely hard at first to cope with all the stress here. The packed timetable, the never ending tutorials and quizzes and the long classes was stressful and tough for me. Guess what is the worst part????? THE FOOD AT THE CAFETERIA, DUHHH……. Hehehe.. I am sure a lot of students here will agree with me. Sometimes the price of the food is not reasonable and sometimes it does not taste nice. But despite all that, we must be thankful that at least we do have something to eat and our life here is much better as compared to those poor kids in the ‘third world countries’. Other than that, the style of teaching is here is different from secondary school. Everything is really fast and express, even faster than POSLAJU…!! But I thank God because even though the teachers here teache fast, they try their best and made sure that we do understand exactly what they are teaching. As for me, I am very happy with all the lecturers who teach my class.

Despite all the hardships that I have went through here, I am happy to be here. It is because I know that from this very place, I will start off with the journey of my life, on the right track. I know that all the tears that I have cried and all the sweat that I have shed will eventually pay off, Insya Allah… Whenever I feel like breaking down when it is all too much for me to take, I will remind myself of what my parents have constantly told me, which is, take things positively and look at life at the better side and you will find that nothing is actually hard in this world and everything is possible, if only you believe in yourself and let yourself reach for the STARS….

And that is what I always do now, which is always thinking positive and putting full trust in myself that I can go through everything that life has for me here. I can do it. YES I CAN!!!!!
