There's always an element of fear in change. Majority of us would (us, being the typical human) choose to remain in a sea of familiarity than to step out of that comfort zone.

I chose to step into the wilderness. It took alot of planning and considerations, and a little bit of courage. And now, I need all the determination and skills in the world to adapt.

It's hard, especially when there's nothing to bond or bind you to your new environment. Makes me float aimlessly around like a balloon which is not being tied down. The balloon floats about, pushed by the wind, different places at different times, no strings attached(pun intended).

And I do miss being around people I know, whom I can really talk to without being someone else. People I can talk to about anything at all. (I remember teaching a guy friend in my ex class about pantyliners because he chanced upon one while flipping through my wallet. And my guy seniors know all about the different types of sanitary pads available in the market? [if u read this u know who u are!] haha)

Aye being in a foreign land is difficult 'cause of the differences and all. People are already more or less hardened in the konnyaku jelly mould... Its hard for me to be assimilated because they are already agglutinated and clumped together. You know? (hehh maybe u'll undstd better if ur a bio student :p)

Well, maybe everybody needs a little bit more time I guess.

I hope.
