I guess the idea of being a university student hasn't sunk into my mind yet. Still, I see myself as the boy from Nibong Tebal. Maybe it's good, maybe it's bad. I am still unsure of it. But I certainly won't want myself to forget my origin because that's who I am and that's what made me into the Lucas today.
When I first got here on the 18th of Febuary, I felt very empty. Vanity. At that time, I din't know what to expect or what to worry about. Despite the emptiness, I knew something was out there, waiting for me to grab it and turn it into mine.
I unpacked my things, did some cleaning and lied down to rest. It was nice that I got to know some rest who were staying at the same area as mine. Having friends on the first day was very useful in terms of companion. Though we came from very different background and places, I still tried my very best to fit in and I succeeded. But not long then only I realized that I was the only one who was different. All of them came from Johor Bahru, my mum's hometown, from the same education background. So, there were many terms that they used were very much unknown to me. That caused many barriers between us. But I was glad that I was able to handle my loneliness wisely. However different we might be, we still went out for lunch and dinner together. So, I could say that it's okay.
And so, the first day of the orientation was fine. Curtin campus was nice. It wasn't so big but wasn't small also. More towards greenery and nature, that's what I liked about it. Besides, there were many new building coming up. As a whole, I liked the university and what was in stored for me.
Now, about the people there. This was the first funny part that I got to know about myself. As I had mentioned above, I din't get fit it so well with the first group. Now, I met another kind of people. Now, this kind of people, they looked good, confident, a little bit arrogant and high-ended. At first sight, I din't quite like them due to their arrogant behavior. But then, I started to talk to them. I went for lunch with them and I found out that they were actually very nice people. And, to my surprise, I kinda like hanging around with them. Really funny and surprising. Cause for thus long, I thought I myself won't like to mix around with people like them but it turned out totally different from what I expected. Nice. At least I got to know something new about myself.

I guess I will stop here.
Stay tuned :)

Do not expect the new surrounding adjusts itself to suit us but let us adjust ourselves to suit the new surrounding....from your dad.
