It’s 1030 am and the students are going on their break. It has been a wonderful week here in Sintok. Another one more week to go, and then I will be back in KL. Can’t believe how fast time goes by. In a blink of an eye, October is already closing in at the end of the month. One more week and we are going to welcome November.

I’ve grown fond of the students here in Sintok. Seeing them on a daily basis, they have become very comfortable with me around them. The sessions are more productive because they are more open to change, and also receptive to my feedback. It’s good to see the way they progressed and the way they actually carry themselves. It’s nice.

As for my love life, let’s take a walk back into memory lane. A couple of months ago I’ve been up and down because of my emotions towards a certain someone. In a way it has taken a toll on my physical, mental, and professional self. Somehow October has served as a wonderful comeback for me. My dating life is well, not fully calendered but it ain’t all that bad either. I sorta dated a guy and it didn’t work out because he was quite a handful. He was sweet, and nice. He was extremely nice to me, but he does not have any self confidence, and he was too needy. I felt suffocated, so I decided that we should just stay friends. Somehow on our third date, he already told his friends that I was his lover and boyfriend. Even telling his family so. It was just too fast for me. He didn’t know how to back off. So, I had to cut the ties. At the end of the day, I need to be comfortable and happy with the person I am with. I was not comfortable with him anymore. It was awkward. We’re friends now, and hopefully, I will meet someone who would make me happy and comfortable.

The second day in Sintok is rather quiet. I have a goal being here besides just resting, and thinking things through about work, I am also here to take a break from everything else out in the city. The hectic life in KL has definitely taken a toll on my spirituality. I needed the break. It’s good to know that when I go back to KL I am gonna be back refreshed. It will be good. I can feel it. This break in Sintok is really good for my soul. The people here are nice. At least so far they are good to me. And I am liking the relaxed pace here.

Time for bed.

Last night I had a blast at Frangis. It’s been a long time since I had such a great time. I managed to meet some new people that I’ve not met before. It was fun. These past month went by rather quickly. I can’t believe that it’s already November in 2 weeks, and then I will be heading to Bangkok for a great holiday. Christmas and New Year in Bangkok. Should be fun. It is going to be a fantastic holiday. I can already feel it in my blood.

I am sorta excited that I am flying off to Sintok today. I will be there for 2 weeks. In these two weeks, it would be a great time for me to actually sit down and think of my priorities, keep up with my reading. I need to get back into my reading and writing. No more excuses of not having enough time. J

 

14 October 2009 : Sintok Day 2

Today is the second official day in Sintok. When I was first notified that I would be coming to Sintok, I had a slight shock because I’ve never heard of the place before. Not that Malaysia is a huge country, but there are places not really mapped in my geographical knowledge of the world. So, off I went two days ago, and arrived here in Sintok on Monday evening. Little did I know that there are some cute boys here. Hehehe. Most of them Thai nationals.

My first thought of being Sintok was, O MY GOSH, where am I gonna stay? I don’t wanna be held up in a hotel that is completely dysfunctional and dirty. Little did I know that the hotel here is actually quite nice. The hotel itself is situated on a hill, with green surroundings. The best part of the hotel is its cleanliness and of course the rain shower is a complete plus. All in all, to my surprise I am totally enjoying my stay here in Sintok. I am loving the nature.

26 September 2009

 

Another Friday just went by just like that. It is as if things are just too fast. I am not complaining though. It feels great that things are going quick. Another couple of months and I will be in Bangkok and I am so excited that I will be there to have a good time. I can’t wait. Currently I am in Ipoh visiting my parents. It has been a while since I actually paid a visit, and it feels great to be with them and spend some time with them again. I had a nice walk with mom today. We laughed so much that my stomach hurt. I realized that spending some quality time just chillin out with them makes their day. Mom asked me about my boyfriend yet again today during dinner. She asked if I was gonna bring my boyfriend home. Only if I have one, I would bring him home. J
