Back for good…
Friday, September 29th, 2006Once again, it’s been months since I last blogged.. dunno why..the enthusiasm to blog doesn’t seem to be there.. maybe because I eventually found blogging kinda bland? Or simply because blogging takes up much of your time as you have to sit down and think what to write, what went on with your life today, is it exciting to share with the rest so and so.. Anyway, yes I’m back from UK, after 3 gruelling months left ’stranded’ in Liverpool, I finally get to land back to my little soft and cozy bed hehe.. imagine the jetlag of 15 hours of flight (12 hours from London to Hong Kong plus another 3 hours transit from Hong Kong back to KLIA), not to mention the craziest act I did was to rush for the One In A Million finale the night itself. I don’t even have time to allow my body to adjust to the 7 hours time advancement, imagine the level of fatigue I endured after the show with the after night party which lasted till 5am. I practically slept 12 hours day after LOL.
It’s definitely been a rollercoaster ride in UK, having to cope with assignment stress and peer pressures. 3 months period in UK wasn’t an easy ride for me I’m sure many of you who read my blog in previous posts. There were also other petty issues which I did not include but I shall not revive it back now as there’s absolutely nothing great about to tell.
Shortly after my last paper, I had the opportunity to embark on a 13 day trip to 7 countries in in Europe; Belgium, Holland, Germany, Austria, Italy, Switzerland and France. It was nevertheless a rather hectic journey having to complete so many countries within 2 weeks period but it was very worth the experience. I got to witness the different cultures and lifestyles the mat salehs go through in their daily lives. From the famous Belgian chocolates, the red light district area in Amsterdam and snowy Mount Titlis in Lake Lucerne to the fancy streets of Milan and Pisa Tower. The unique structures of greatly carved building, especially the ones found in Italy during the Greek and Roman times were really captivating. The rich history facts lied withing each monuments and statues kept you wondering for more. It’s intriguing to learn how each and every person cum hero who brought influence to what the country has been now. What amuses me the most was the final destination which was Paris France, the famous Pyramid of Lourve where the famous Da Vinci Code was filmed. Below the pyramid lies the tomb of Mary Magdalene from the plot. Da Vinci Code was one of my favourite movies and I can’t believe I was standing right in front of the pyramids, obviously I didn’t hesitate to snap more pictures than usual for memories that I’ve actually set foot there.
No doubt 3 months were only a short period of time, I did begin to understand myself more in desperate measures. Where my level of indepence stood. I must really come to terms to face the fact I’m no longer a child and the world of working environment awaits me. I have to overcome the challenges that are bound to embrace me, to survive for the best in my future.
