:(

Everything just started.
The first month It took me some time to familiar with the weather.
Starting this early April..
I just entered class to experience America's classroom.
Why I started it late..? because it is new quarter.
the early month was in the middle of quarter..
not really suitable for us.

I Just started to visit Alden everyday.
Just started to picnic around Green College.
Just realized that I want to further my MA.
Just started to realize how I love my 5 friends.. Alif, Mem, Amai, Naddy and Elin.
Just started to love eat Jimmy John's sandwiches.
Just started to love eating soft cookies which I hate before.
Just started to improve my English.
Just started to enjoy shopping in Amazon.com.
Just started to enjoy everything that I just know.

Everyhting has just started..... apparently it will be end very soon.
Very soon...

After this,
My environment changes back to normal.
Come back to normal hot weather.
Come back to drive my myvi in Klang.
Come back to go through congested Klang road.
Come back to lying on bed with my santek.
Come back to eat my nasi lemak.

Only God knows how I miss my hometown.

But this changes are too drastic.
I am going to handle it.
Im going to make it.
Im going to face it.
hopefully I will be brave enough.
The starting point has to be ended for a while.

I will come back here to find my loves.
Love to study.
Love to find my life.
Love to see the world.
Love to learn knowledge from others.
Love to be within my lovely friends.

It doesnt mean that if I go back  I wont find all my LOVES.
I will find it.
Same as here.
The different.is.. It is so different.
Im going to miss this place like hell.

I miss my mom.daddy.brothers.sisters.friends.
but
I already miss this place too... Eventhough I am still here.

God help me go through this phase.
please.. please...  :(

Itu saja...

Jangan soalkan..
jangan pernah tanya..
kerana aku akan tahan~

Happy 420 day

While walked to WOUB office today, we heard almost everyone greets each other with some celebration..which I dont really captured the words since it was not meant for me neither my friends.. but we did heard people greets each other and we wondered what the heck it is...

Now I found out.. Its Happy 420 day.

I know it is passed 4.20pm today..
but i take this opportunity to wish you

"Happy 420 day.."

Definition of 420 day from wikipedia:
 It refers to consumption of cannabis and, by extension, a way to identify oneself with cannabis subculture
The term was coined from a group of teenagers at San Rafael High School in San Rafael, California, United States in 1971. The teens would meet after school at 4:20 p.m. to smoke marijuana outside the school.



___________________________________________

new things I learn  here in America, new celebration which is not officially considered as national holiday.
hahaha.. what an interesting cultures. It doesnt mean to be follow but we just get to know about it.
Have a nice day everyone!

Dear Earth

Dear Mr. Earth,
Winter in January was awesome because that was my first winter.
At first I was happy and excited touching the white beautiful snow scattered around which can be use to make Cendol or ABC.
After few weeks, Im enough with it because it was too icy, gloomy and road became slippery.
There was one time the temperature reached 5 fahrenheit or -15 celsius.
I was complaining about the cold weather wishing that the sun will show some power.

After 2 months...then the Spring showed up.
The sun was everywhere and everyone happy about it.
Everyone will say "It is a beautiful day.. hope you enjoy it"
Then I knew how important the sun is.
We can see everyone lying on the park where some with clothes and some not.
I Now know how sun gives happiness and enjoyment to human nature including dogs and squirrel at the Green College.
Day by day.. the temperature reached to almost 80 Fahrenheit or 26 celsius.
Then I started complaining again.. because it was too hot.
I opened our room's window hoping more wind to enter our room but nothing much different happened.
Plus my room, the heater is still not operate properly until today.. Deb.. your technician sucks~

Today April 9, the temperature suddenly dropped to 41 fahrenheit or 5 celsius.
I have to open back my wardrobe and search for my winter clothes.
Then as usual, I complained about the weather become too cold and drop all of the sudden.
It makes me to wear my same design winter clothes back.
And I hate it.
I hate to go out and have to wear thick clothes. Leceh laa...
And yet.. I only enjoy the sun only for 3 weeks and now its freezing again.

Mr. Earth.. I know you heard everything I said everyday.
You must be confused of what I wish for.
If you are a man, I can imagine how you look like and how you response to people who are always complaining and never grateful about life.

Sorry Mr. Earth.
I just think this is a free country. Please dont be like this.
The changes are too extreme.

Moral of the story. Appreciate everything you have now.


Sorry Mr. Earth.
I will not complain too much after this.


I just want to lay down under the Sakura tree near the Hocking river this weekend because we are having potluck with the SEASA. Thats all.

Good night Athens.

I dont wanna miss a thing

Yesterday, Acip, Nadia, Ashley, Amai and I had our late dinner at Buffalo Wild Wings.(Our mamak stall here because it is located just around the corner)

When everyone went out, only Mahirah and I still waiting at the table.

Songs of Aerosmith came out title " I dont wanna miss a thing"
It made me rewind everything what I gone through before.

Unfortunately, thinking of this place, Athens the village which nobody will never ever dream to stay here.. Im sad..

Im so sad to leave this place.

People may look that we are  actually kind off waste money here because we didnt look busy while working.
People may look that we are actually having a long vacation.
People may look that we are actually didnt get what we are supposed to get at this far.

But people stop assuming. You dont know what we gained here.

_______________________________________________

At this far, now I realize NOTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE
Thanks for the love especially to
  • Joanie(we will definitely miss you)

This appreciation may be too early because I still have 1 month here but I dont care. I want to remember everything happen with me now forever. This opportunity may not come twice. By appreciating this, I know I will remember everything I experience now.

This journey is so far. I learn more about appreciate my life. About people around me.
About try and try again and never give up.
About the beautiful places that create by God which we should look for and see it by ourselves. not just through Internet.
About greetings. Simple things that connect people which I almost forgot.
About work hard.
To be more sensitive to environment. 

Sorry because it took me this long to realize it. How dumb I am.
Sorry guys for my mistakes. Insyaallah I will not do those thing anymore.

I hope this experience will never end. Life is so wonderful.

I am so grateful for this opportunity eventhough it is only for 4 months.

Thanks Allah.
Thanks for letting me to experience this.
Only You know how I feel now. Thank you very much.
Thank you.

My Abang Mraz..

 
Wiki stated that:
 
Jason Mraz born June 23, 1977 is an American singer-songwriter, born and raised in Mechanicsville, Virginia.

And i know he is still there because his latest blog dated Tuesday, March 30, 2010 Titled: On a plain...http://freshnessfactorfivethousand.blogspot.com/ said that:

"Yesterday I flew from Richmond, Virginia to San Francisco, California."

He is so close to my place.. the google map showed that: 



From Athens to  Mechanicsville, Virginia takes
406 mi – about 7 hours 4 mins
Dekat je tu... Eventhough Journey to Texas pun 24 Hours = 2500 miles aku da cuba.. ini kan lagi 7 hours journey...  
Oh Abang Mraz.. u drive me crazy.. hahaha.. I wish I can see u sbb kenapa time aku datang sini x da US Tour kamu,... huhuhu~
Oh Abg Mraz... Im coming to you.. hahaha..(gila apa)..
