Myself, Forgotten?

i've been thinking about something the past few days.





My freedom here in Melbourne has been one i've cherished eversince i came here. It's been 2 years since the first time i arrived and to be honest, i'm already immune to the freedom i have. Lately, my father called and it reminded me of who i used to be. it held me back in position. making me feel guilty.



i go out on weekdays. watch movie on weekdays. sometimes late at night. i hardly come back before 9pm anymore. (but for most of it, it's because of staying in the lab working all night.) naturally, that rule doesn't apply to me anymore!



D : hello, Linggg??



Me : yeah, ba, hello.



D : what are you doinggg??



Me : oh just watched movie with erge.



(it was a thursday night)



D : watching movie on a weekday?



Me : Ouh, because me and er ge seldom meet ma. today can meet so watch movie lo. hehe.

(er ge stays with his friends. not with me.)



D : oh, call er ge here.



(i passsed the phone to er ge)



....................................................



next thing i know, my dad scolded er ge for bringing me out on a weekday-night. ...



i'm so immune to this i actually forgotten all bout curfew and all that! i know that, as a student in a foreign country, one must know his limits. i do! somehow i feel that going out on a weeknight till 11pm or 1 am is alright as long as you don't do drugs or do irresponsible drinking or do something that could jeopardise your future. what's wrong with watching movies or playing some games at a friend's house or just chatting outside, have a drink?



as long as you've done your work right?



i do try to understand the way they think but i'm sure they would feel and do exactly the same thing if they were studying abroad.



don't you think?



or have i forgotten myself?

how do i live life doing something i know couldn't harm anyone or myself but couldn't understand the rules my parents set for me of which i have to follow?



How will i ever get back to my life in malaysia?



sometimes i envy people with too much freedom.



oh by the way Chuck and Larry is hilarious! pls watch it..! hehe.


double dating.. hehe

lately i've also been thinking. I'm 20. TWENTY!! 20 years old. Ppl at this age would have gotten married and have children just 2 generations ago. and boy did they survive. i'm twenty and i haven't achieve anything important in my life! i'm starting to feel pressure to carry out my responsibility as a young adult to work on my career. where do i start? i do feel the urge to find out my dad is doing in the company or how people get rich or get a powerful career. but it's so hard! .. i do still want to be young and playful but when i get too much of that, i feel guilty. do u ?



i notice a bad habit i have. i know all my problems. i know what i should and should not do. i know all that. but i just don't do what i'm supposed to. and in the end, it depresses me. grrrr.



i'm just talking nonsense here. to get back to the flow of

blogging. so forgiveme, ppl if i suddenly jump here and there. :)

until next time! will have more on my previous birthday and the holidays. thanks to everyone who wished and celebrated with me! .. ( i know it's alil late now but i've been busy k!!)

my thursday is free.. so when its wednesday night.. my mum will ask.. "eh.. wednesday night woh.. dowan to go out ah?".. haha.. see?.. remember how uptight my mum was about me.. going out even on weekends?

haha.. seriously.. who don like freedom?.. so again.. don have to feel guilty. but its good that u feel the way. that means.. u still remember and aware where u belonged and u are not those kacang melupakan kulit kind. GOOD FOR U!

Hey. I think ur dad is just basically worried about u cause back in malaysia he will always ask u where u going and sometimes stop u from going out. But i guess u are a big girl now. 20 edi. So i guess going out on a weekday is not a problem if u know how to manage ur time and finish ur work in time.

Well all i can say is enjoy ur freedom while u can but remember that u have work to do. I know sometimes u get carried away. Me too. But i guess just enjoy yourself there. Cause when u are back in malaysia again. Say bye bye to your freedom. But i guess they are not as strict as before.

And when u go out at night becareful yeah. Especially in a foreign country. I guess ur dad will say the same. Cause we both love u so much. So becareful and take care of yourself when u go out at night k. Muaksss.

hmmm, so for freedom, we have to fight for it??

you know, i've been thinking about the issue for the past few days man.. like how we'll lose most of our luxury once we start working. specially on time and friends. i don't want that to happen before i actually fully enjoy myself as a uni student. but so far i would say i'm very happy with my life and how fortunate i am.

i shall not complaiN! .. hehe..

before i enjoy myself, i gotta manage my time. maybe i should organise another trip here since i have the chance!! hehe..

but, meiwen, u know sth..

I DON'T RECALL US HAVING TO GONE ON ANY TRIP TOGETHER LEHHHHHHH...
our girl group very sad laaa.... never had onewhere ALL of us go together. and if i say one day we should, we wouldn't know if it wouldcome to a reality or just a fantasy in our busy little minds.

your advice is one i always love to listen to, so thank you!! :)

melvin, yours too. sometimes i really feel like i 've gone from lazy to super lazy!! . die la, continue motivating me, didn't work much the first timebut i think it will overtime. hehehe. thanks for your patience bie! i love you so much! i know it must be hard for you too.

wei, get Distinctions k??

(have i become my father without realising it??? oh noooooooooooo!!!!!!)
