Written in the Stars


So there goes my first week here in Penang.
Can't believe it's already gonna be Monday tomorrow. Nyehh :/

Anyway, introducing

Rowena! My roommate.
Eheh :D


L > R ; Caryne, Stephanie & Siew Sanz
My housemates.
:)

First week went by alright.
I thought I'd be more homesick than this, but I think I'm holding up pretty fine. So far, at least. Probably because my housemates are really nice.
My subjects for IB are English SL, German(ab initio), Mathematics HL, Biology HL, Economics SL & Film Studies HL
But am thinking of changing Film Studies to Chemistry. Though I'd much prefer Film studies cause it's REALLY interesting and I've never been a fan of Chemistry, but I guess Chemistry would be more of use. Sigh :/


As you can see, I've already messed up my bed.

I do miss home though.
My family.
My friends.
Ad.
My dogs.

I'm still trying to get used to the international community.
and trying to get used to studying from 8 am till 3.20pm. It's a huge transition, from lazing for 8 months.
Besides that, guess I'm doing alright, starting to get the hang of it.

A New Day Has Come

Okay so I kinda abandoned my blog a lil :/

But I've been BUSY. Well not entirely. 



Spent the most of August in China, where blogspot is banned. So is Facebook. Not to mention YOUTUBE too. All I could do online for 3 weeks was to google stuff. Nyeh. Was fun though, the trip. Went to a few cool places, like Xian where the Terracotta warriors are, and the Shaolin Temple - huayaaa!



So after bumming around for EIGHT months, I'm finally gonna be starting school. Will be doing the IB(International Baccalaureate) Programme in Uplands International School in Penang. I'm EXCITED. and NERVOUS. and a lil SAD to leave home and everyone.Can't believe I'm the new girl again. Starting from scratch without a friend.


Well, we'll see how this chapter of my life unravels.
