Home away from HOME

I spoke with emotions on how I came to cambridge and related my thoughts of being in a culture shock to my classmates. They seemed to be understanding.

I was told by my friends that I need to stay positive and start each day full of energy. I know I need that..else I will not return with pride and glory.

I missed everything about HOME. My family, friends, food, transportation..you name it.

While trying to nurse my "freshie's tummy"..I am also glad that I am not the only one having it..not that I am making fun of the others but the fact that I know I am not alone..in fact, the other person whom I know is having it is also frm SG.

The course may be demanding..but studying is neither a bed of roses nor should it be a bed of thorns. Plus I am not under any pressure to score distinctions so that makes a whole lot of difference I guess:)

I told myself to look into the mirror every morning and assure that everything is going to be alright..despite all odds..it doesn't matter that I am not gg out to the city centre for grocery shopping (cos I have found my way to doing that online) as it is an ardous journey. It doesn't matter that I spend every weekend back in dorm sleeping, reading, blogging etc all except drinking (since I develop allergies).

I just need to be myself, make myself happy and I am sure all will go well:)

Thanks Mum, Dad, Sis, Hubby n Babies for cheering me on...where would I be without you all? :)
