As a kid I used to think that I hated this country, and that I couldn't wait to get out of this place. I wanted to go overseas as soon as possible, study there, work there, and who knows, hopefully live there.
Now I'm older and I've lived 17++ [18 in 9 days, actually] years in Malaysia, my perception has changed. I love the country. I love the weather, although I bitch about how hot it is all the time; I can't do without it. I love the food. I love the people, the shopping.. a lot of things.
My parents tell me that in a year or so I have to go overseas to do my degree. I'm dreading it. I haven't done any research about international universities because I don't want to think about it. Dad tells me that I should get a job when I'm done with my studies and stay in [maybe Australia] for good. And I'm like.. noooo I want to come home! Things have changed eh.
Well. Malaysia will always be home.
Happy Merdeka, Malaysia.

This reminds me of my HS before going to college. Everyone wants to leave our dear old province to study in some well off University. I realized, it wasnt really about the name of the school, it's your own "name" in it that matters.Why have all the glitz if you're not comfortable having them?
I mean - if you think thats for the better - I WANNA JOIN YOU. May I? hahaha.
