Tonight, i got myself glued on the computer again, while tw is busily completing his work from home. Managed to sent some keep-in-touch msges to my old frens, some may reply, some may not reply. yet i tried to keep the "yello, how are u messages" going.
Then, i came across some blogs belonging to my friends & close ones and made me wonder if being away to another nation, over the sea, is a worthwhile experience. i myself experience a short 4 months trip in sheffield, uk. yet that's long enough to share my opinions here.
To me, its an entirely different experience if u adventure this opportunistic journey alone. some may want to stick to the the whole-gang-going-overseas-tgt experience, but i took the different path for once. away frm my good best friends, i flew alone. i must admit, i bring along a lot of sorrow (i js din tell many friends that) but i also bring along a lot of excitement to the unexpected experience in an country that is so alien to me. some doubted my decision, but i stick to it. one month later, i flew.
Does not mean that being overseas urself is a mistake. a wrong decision. not at all. a lot of us hv gone through this as part of our life. it just make u Stronger. Wiser. an Achiever. U can tell more meaningful stories to ur grandkids in future, as u observe a Wider experience, go thru the joy n pain' Entire process and heal along with it, solve ur Own bitterness and tackle the Small Devil in ur heart, that keep on telling u it's a wrong decision u made, and urging u to return to ur old past.
well, looking back to the past is never gonna help u to move forward. yes, we can all thnk back of the good memories, but then the old memories wont be relived to the present/ the future js by thinking back. my advice, js do not question of ur decision of where u are now, stick to what u hv decided, and move forward. any comments from those staying abroad/ once stayed abroad?
