The differences

Hello so I'm back in Kuching! Never thought that time could pass by so fast. This year undoubtedly had been a year full of excitements and also sorrows. Was glad melbourne treat me well.

Normally, people would think those who study abroad are way too snobbish, they 'kek' their angmoh accents while talking etc. I feel that when people look at me like 'oooooh you go overseas'. It's ok. I am grateful my dad is able to send me study overseas. I am just a little bit more lucky than most people in Kuching thats all. Studying overseas, really, is not that cool and its no big deal too. We got to face the music ourselves, all the time while back in your hometown, you get to discuss the matter with your parents and close friends. But here, you have to think, as they say, critically and analytically .

I miss literature tutorials esp in term 4 where we studied Hamlet. I just realised the other day, the high school kids this year were studying Hamlet as well lol. To be frank, Australian education system is really really better than Malaysia's. So much better. Damn government, you really need to get your people to think outside the box.

I was shocked at an adult with his family at Ipoh Town Kopitiam the other day at KLIA, he cut our queue without asking me and my sister 'sorry are you in the queue?'. We both concluded that maybe we had been staying outside for so long and wouldn't really get used to these people's attitudes. You think you're older and the younger ones should let you and give in. Don't take things for granted. All I can say is that you're still living in zaman dulu. Concept has changed ok.

And Najib, you scolded those people who go abroad to study and when they finish their degrees, they do not decide to come back and serve the country. Well, why is that so? Had you ever think that maybe its the government's fault? You guys are not convincing enough? You say we do not love our country. Well, we do love our country and our ancestors. We just have no love in our government aka Barisan Nasional. In other words, you guys are hopeless. Somehow, media is something that revealed the truths during the pasts, but now. it is used to cover up your wrongdoings? If you want to gain trusts from your citizens again, treat them well, no more whatever transformasi stuff---they are totally useless. Was there any developed countries who apply these kind of transformation thingy or whatsoever to improve their nations' qualities? Generation gap prolly is the main problem to overcome. You need to get your people to think alike.Sadly, you can totally identify the differences between the older generations and the newer generations--their way of thinking and analysing things. Too bad, the textbook syllabubs has been changed over and over again. The issue of the language used has also aroused the concern. Dear government, this is just not right.
 
So err I'll just stopped here ;) thanks for reading, all the best ev

Here's part of the lyrics of Ordinary Miracle from The Magic Riddle ( omg childhood times!! )
I never could discover
what the world was all about
although I searched it everywhere.
The good and bad were too mixed up
to sort them out
until I looked inside my heart 
................
Happiness comes after sorrow
Harmony comes after strife.
Tears today, all smiles tomorrow,
In this riddle known as Life
.................
Autumn leaves and summer showers,
Buds in spring and winter snow,
I will only think of flowers
as the seasons come and go
.................
