This week has been a very long and tired week. There is not much of physically wear out but instead there is a lot of emotions ups and downs. At this very momment when I am writing this, deep down i miss my school friends badly and Alina. The world out there sometimes i think is wide, hostile and so realistic.

It all started out with this weird guy in my batch. He was extremely weird this week. He came in class late for three of our lessons and have a very grand entrance. What do I mean by grand entrance. He will hop into the class and make some background musics himself. I am now seriously keeping a safe distance from him. He seemed mentally challenged. On friday, I had Malaysian Studies. I was waiting for the lift at the ground floor with my friend. Then we saw him waliking towards our direction. Immediately, we hurried ourselves to the stairs walked one floor up. Oh my god!!! On the way up, I saw him at the stairscase entrance. He stared up and said " I am following your!!" My friend and I grabbed our bags tightly and stared running to the another end and used the stairs at that end to run all the way down. You must be thinking I am crazy but trust me, he was slapped and puched by our seniors because of his weird and not normal antics. Better be safe than sorry if what pop up in my mind every time i meet him.

The second unhappy and disturbing incident was being friends with a math genius. He is 16 and came from Hong KOng. He has a vary strong foundation in Mathematics. I felt extremely small, timid like a dwarf when I asked for his help or when we have group sudies. I just lost all my confidence when i am around him. He too used harsh words at times. This is the first time someone make me loss faith in myself. Thank god i still practice positive thinking or I would break down emotionally and ring Alina up. Haha, glad that did not happen.

Yah, so things are starting to heat up now. It is like what our parents always say to us: The world out there is vast and there is all types of ppl from all walks of life. Some treat you sincerely and some may just want to get something for you. Whatever it is, I guess it is time for me to start learning to be street wise rather than just book wise, step out from my comfort zone.

Hope everybody still be their very self and not let the so ever realistic society to tarnished you.

Its okay pei ying. There are many types of people out there. Sometimes, they just do not know how much 'words' can hurt. But, as long as you know yourself, you will be just fine. And I strongly believe that you will cope well and be the winner. Prove yourself to everyone! :D

Hey, sorry I'm a bit late to leave you a comment.
I totally understand your ups and downs. Trust me, I've been through all of that. All the upfront criticisms, intimidation, nervousness and the bouts of loneliness comes up to a really big struggle. Come what may, but always keep this one word in mind : PERSEVERE. Cos at the end of the day, you will look back and smile as you reap the fruits of your hard labour. It's forever easy to talk the talk, but to walk the talk, that's a challenging task don't you think? No one is good in everything. For all you know, that HK guy could be excellent in his studies but terribly bad at many other things. After all, I believe that studies is not everything. Friends are really important and you've got a whole bunch of them =) Now you have got to stay away from tht mentally challenged guy. Make sure you've always got some protection with you heh.heh. He just adores attention, that guy.
Everything will turn out well and before you know it, you'll be missing your col life already. So stay strong LADY and enjoy all the sweet moments that flutter by ;).
whoa that's one looong comment xD
