Random thoughts of mine

     It is the second week of my college life in INTI College Subang. It seems that I have somewhat accustomed to the environment or culture of studying in college after just two weeks because I feel that going for class during odd hours and having lunch at unusual hours is a regular routine for me. :3

     Anyways, the event that was held today, to celebrate Sean’s (my classmate) birthday was wonderful. J We went straight to ‘Shakespeare’ after a boring yet stressful class of Business Management. After that, we took group pictures, sang songs and so on. It was fun because I got the opportunity to strengthen the bond with my newly found friends and laugh like nobody’s business. ><

Half of my class is here weyh. xD

      Moving along, the phrase ‘Do not judge a book by its cover’ has been very appealing to me this week because I’ve recently met a girl from my class whom is seemingly ordinary but surprisingly extraordinary. :3 My first impression of her was that she is an averagely pretty girl with a quiet and timid personality. She is unimpressive and ordinary was what I initially thought but as I’ve gotten to know more about her through our conversations over the social media called ‘Facebook’, it surprised me to know that she is not such a boring person after all.  Her interests are my dislikes. For example, she thinks that snakes are cute while I think that snakes are sinister and vicious. Despite that, I have a feeling that we can get along with each other and will be able to be good friends. :D

        “Who is she?”

The answer to that question is for me to know and for you to find out. :P This encounter with her has reminded me not to be so ignorant and hasty to judge others by their appearance before actually knowing them. :/ Although, I’ve always had this bad habit of judging others unfairly till I make random assumptions about them. >< It is not a simple task to break this habit of mine but at least, I am making the effort to do so. :3

     Lastly, these three words which are stress, pressure and incapable has been haunting my mind because honestly, I’m not doing so well with my studies. It’s only the beginning but yet, I already feel like crashing. L

     “Good luck, Bryan.”

I hope that this encouragement of mine would last me for the rest of the….semester. ==…

     Heee...so yeah, college started like 1 week ago and it'll be my second week in college starting tomorrow. I met many new friends and had a great time. We didn't study much last week since it only started so there was plenty of time to socialize. My class consists of approximately 30 people, more girls than boys. Wakaka, there are 3 International students and the rest are Malaysians. It's fun meeting a whole lot of new people of different personalities, can't wait for what's coming ahead. The essay below is actually my English 'homework' assigned by my lecturer, Ms Jenny. She told us to write about 4 descriptive essays about our everyday life (journal). It's a simple task since I'm a blogger, so yeah, just sharing it out! ^^

INTI Orientation Day 1

    

     The awaited day is finally here. It has been one terribly long and boring month of being lifeless at home. 9^th of Jan 2014 was the day I turned into a college student.

     I woke up early to prepare myself for college the orientation starts at 9am. It felt like any other ordinary morning because I do not feel any difference, no anxiety, no excitement but my mind was occupied with events that might or will occur in college. As I finished my breakfast which was just a cup of ‘Nestum’, I hurried off to college for orientation.

     The road which was filled with cars was somewhat frustrating because most people were rushing to work at that time. It was a challenge to maneuver my motorcycle in that traffic condition even when motorcycles are not usually affected by bad traffic conditions.

     Anyways, as I’ve arrived in college, I forced a smile on my ever emotionless face and thought to myself “It’s a new day, it’s a new life, what has passed should be left in the past because now it’s time for a new beginning. After 13 years of education filled with unnecessary uniforms and rules, I’m finally a college student.”

     I went to register myself for INTI orientation and was directed to the Auditorium for orientation. Before the occasion started, I managed to socialize with a few people and made new acquaintances. Some of them are my course-mates and some are not but that does not matter because I enjoy meeting new people. 

     During the orientation, they gave a few speeches which were boring but informative. It may seem rude of me to say that but at least, I did not slumber during those speeches. After that, we had lunch and played some games prepared by a non-profit organization known as INTIMA. The day went on as it was, people having fun with smiles on their faces and tons of laughter.

       “How did I feel?” If that is your question then my answer is, I felt relieved.  I felt relieved because on my first day of college, my cold heart actually felt slightly warm from being a college student.

-The End-

Back to Gym.

02/01/2014 – Thursday

     Happy New Year, everyone and may you have a truly blessed year. ^^

It’s the second day of 2014 and all of the primary/secondary students are going back to school. I went to the gym instead since my college starts on the second week of January. The feeling is great because I’m finally 18 this year. I don’t know why I feel great about this but I just do.

It has been 5 months since my accident which means I haven’t been to the gym for about 5 months. It’s good to be back as I’ve lacked a lot of training. I had a thought that I might gain weight and some extra fat during my absence in the gym but gladly, I managed to ‘keep fit’ somehow. :3

Anyways, jogging on the treadmill is always the most tiring part of my workout in the gym. It's just my warm-up though. O.o I run for about 10 minutes with an average of 8km/h and ‘cool down’ for about 4-5minutes.  As I was jogging and looking out through the windows, I watched numerous cars passing by the busy road and a nostalgic feeling washed over me. 

Every single minute of my life, I was thinking of her. When I feel tired and was about to give up, she would be my motivation to keep going. I would keep pushing myself harder and harder so I could be strong and wise enough to protect her, one day. Studies, work outs and everything, she became my motivation to strive not only for my future but ’ours’.

Although, time has passed and things have changed. Thus, those were just memories of my past. It’s a new year and that means it’s time for a change. I have to find a new reason to motivate myself for a better tomorrow.
