Friday Afternoon

It is a friday afternoon, I usually get out of my last lecture for the week in friday afternoon with a high spirit, getting ready to party, why? cos it is weekend already!

As usually, I left my last lecture, which was International Business Class, and came to the computer lab, dubbed 'cybercommon' by myUni (cool name ei?), check some emails, reply them if I feel like replying them, but it's different today, the 'high spirit' isn't here with me, it didn't follow me out of the lecture hall... I am sitting here now, completely numbed...

Guess it's like a cycle, sometimes you ride on the top of the curve (which plots 'degree of happiness' againts 'time' on a diagram), sometimes, you just happen to slip right down to the bottom, and when people ask you what's wrong... you suddenly realise that, you have no idea! There is no particular reason for it...

Guess everybody have been through the same situation ei? If someoneask me 'how's life in New Zealand?' this very moment, I would give the standard answer, 'Fine, you?', but if you ask how am I feeling right now, I would say nothing...

why?

somethings, you have to experience it yourself to know why... Maybe, its just a lazy friday afternoon afterall...

Between Strangers

It was 2.20am in the morning, the television was tuned to the Discovery Channel, I kept the TV on although no one was watching it, having a little noise in the house made me felt...somehow easier... Whats tangling in my mind wasn't my assignments or up-coming finance term test, it was - ''fifth week, this is already my fifth week in New Zealand, has it been five weeks already?''

Walking between strangers in a stranger's land is a very refreshing experience, my life has step into a new chapter as I took my first step onto this Land of Long Cloud, and as every forward step I took, made this land less strange to me... My time here, isn't what I had expected it to be, but still, I trust that there is a 'joy' in everything, right? have hope, have faith! and my friend, you too!

My final year isn't going to be easy, I know that clearly in my head, just like my Swedish friend, Robert said, ''there is no such thing as holiday in University...'' true ei? I refuse to believe this fact, I am not a supernatural human being with a body which never sleep nor rest, or an alien with an ultimate-huge-enormous-extra-large brain, capable of learning everything... I am just a typical teenager, who wants to have fun while he still can!
