Life of Unknown

 On 1/1/2019, As soon as I finished my last paper for my final exam during this semester, I was literally flying coming out from the examination hall. Today I was sleeping at 5am, just to do last minute cramming for this subject. And finally, I am free with everything!

I rushed back to my dormitory so that I could help to celebrate my friends' birthdays and we got to play flour around! We were having so much fun and we felt so tiring running around and chasing each other for the 'flour fight'. Eventually, we sat down and had a picnic, eating and chatting around. All my friends are Malay friends mostly came from Kelantan, which gave me difficulty to catch up what they said, or somewhat I just did not care and laugh along when they did. But I was so happy that the birthday babies loved it and we got to share around the love and the surprises.

After having a shower, I was definitely planning to hit on the bed for my own hibernation. Suddenly, I remembered that I promised a friend to watch the 'Bumblebee' movie and I was so sleepy but yet changed my clothes and went down to meet him. By the way, the movie was so good. The flow, story line and the characters were brought out so good and the humor was on point. After the movie, since I suggested not to go back earlier, we were just driving around and singing karaoke for like, 2 hours? We were definitely getting drunk by all the One Direction, Bruno Mars and The Vamps' beautiful voices! Right after back to my room, I definitely did not get the chance to sleep first, because a long talk with my bestie is a 'MUST' after so long. The time I really slept, I definitely was drifting off to be just like a PIG! (it's a pig year this time)

I thought waking up naturally but then you know what, life just really can threw you off really hard. Last night I was talking with my brother wishing him to fetch me back to Ipoh, my hometown but we did not really reach an agreement. So when in the morning he called me that he reached at my place, I was so shocked that I jumped off from my bed. He said he was at the parking lot and ready to pick me up NOW!

I hate him at that moment and rushed down to meet him first. I explained to him that I need to clear up my room before going back, which can literally take up to 3 hours, normally. He did not care and wanted me to come back down like 30 minutes after cleaning up. I was so panic that I used what supposedly 3-4 hours tidying ended to be 1 hour 30 minutes clearing up. I was startled of my own capability too, sometimes. Then it was where I ended up with - Penang, after a long road trip, that told me that life was full of surprises and unknown, because  my brother did not freaking let me back yet until the other day. So, bye for now. I am heading to enjoy my day in this historic and urbanized city.

Mental Health 0.1: Are you an Impostor among Yourselves?

  Disclaimer: This post is not related to the current trending game: Among Us, at all. (how I wish it is…). Okay. Back to the topic:           “Man, you don’t DESERVE all the applause!” “C’mon you are not even THERE yet!” Another voice comes in: “Nah, you just get LUCKY only! Do you really think this is good ENOUGH?”           Sometimes, all these voices come from people around you, but most of the time it comes from the voices within yourself. If you feel that way after managing to finish a task or achieve something, I guess you get a little bit of impostor syndrome.           Imposter syndrome means the lack of affirmation of yourself after able to achieve something or complete a work by proven facts. You view your own success as being someone’s work. You view yourself of being lucky to be able to get a new job. You do not validate your o...

What's scarier than you do the same thing over and over but you are still doing it

  If you are born and raised from an Asian family, I am sure that 99.8% of you had been forced to attend some sorts of extra classes or advancement courses to “improve” ourselves while we were young (0.02% were probably crying their eyeballs out to get their getaway card). There is a Malay saying: “ Melentur buluh biarlah dari rebungnya .”, which means that learning in a tender younger age is the best way to cultivate and nourish skills! It’s especially applicable for Asian’s KIASU personality or more specifically Chinese people???           I was definitely not excluded. I was sent to swimming lesson for my mom stating that drowning was very possible in this world covered of around 71% water. Hence, my mom sent every one of us siblings to learn swimming in a very early ages. Other than that, art class and taekwondo class since I was in primary school were attended too.           Truthfully, I am not here to ...

Your Priority is not His Priority

There are 2 baskets on the table. You could only choose the contents inside one of the baskets. You can´t have both. One contains 1,000,000,000 US dollars cheque. One contains a Ticket to anywhere you want in this world in unlimited times. Which one would you choose ? It’s a 50/50 choices. Some would choose the million dollars, or some would choose the freedom to go anywhere (especially in this critically freedom-restricted timing). There’s nothing wrong choosing whichever because everyone has their own preference, hence priorities are different among each other.           Priorities are a ranking people tend to have or subconsciously decide on when facing a dilemma between both options that inevitably can’t be enjoyed together. When you have a different goal than your aspiring friend, you can’t be shameful to admit that you want to be a superhero but not an engineer that all your friends want to be. You just have different priorities. ...
