arriving @ the last bit of a magical chapter
only went to bed @ 6.30am & got up @ 7.45am for class. & without even realising it, this morn's class was the very last session of my entire academic life....it's all flew pass so quickly....
@ this time last yr, i wasn't even sure if i'd be coming to the uk, to the states or australia....
2yrs back this time....hmm.....i think us jan '06s just got back from our outbound trip to chengdu & bangkok.
3yrs ago this time of the yr, i would have just completed my very 1st project @ shtlm, the baba nyonya arch presentation......from there, so much have developed, the abundant opportunities....was just amazing
4yrs back...just the start of a very mad experience living in palmville, with maximum ~ tai-d, drinking, football mania, midnight african-mamak sessions @ ss14 & a lot of mcD "studying" sessions, ipoh tour-guiding.......& definitely vietnamisation (which i do miss a lot) & minimal monash session :p
5yrs ago this time of the yr...just about working towards the end of CIMP.
to sum up all 5yrs after leaving school & living away from home for college, then uni......it's been amazing. from the lil me......(not that i've grown any taller now....just sideways....which still remains a constant battle.).........to a somewhat more matured, independent & confident person..........
to see myself developed in ways that if given a 2nd chance, i wouldn't have chosen any other path. everything happens for a reason & if not for the way things have worked out, be it gd or bad, i would be a different person today......
i've enjoyed the ride & "contentment" is still the key i hold on to (though the besties would be shaking their heads now with this word they dislike hearing out of me), there's been great achievements, setbacks @ times.....but overall, i do not regret any of it & am thkful for every lil experience........especially the 2 yrs in shtlm which i think really made a huge difference. from being just a student to having work experience, doing small things, big things, real things........
& though i still have 3 assignments yet to be worked on from scratch.........the sense of achievement over the very final project we've organised; UCLAN united & the tremendous positive feedback from the participants, sponsors, lecturer & especially the compliments for our group effort & presentation @ the end is overwhelming. it's meant so much to wrap up the entire 5 yrs with a great bang..........the best feedback i think anyone of us 5 in the group have ever received in our entire studies...
the path from here.....is still very vague.....so unclear that i hope that phone call i'm waiting for would shed some light & brighten up the path.....but whatever it may be, i know the path ahead will be bright......somehow......things will just work out great.......like how the past 5 yrs have been.......................
it's a long way to go from here but with beautiful sceneries i anticipate......& i'll smell the roses along the way.......while reminiscing days gone by from time to time to remind myself just how blessed & thkful i am :) what would the next chpt be like...hmm....
