Package of emotions…
Eversince i’ve got my matched University…I’ve got this package of emotions…(happy, lucky, contented, grateful) + (scared, apprehensive, sad, fearful) + (excited, hopeful) = Chia Huan
Happy, lucky, contented, grateful cos i got my first choice and it did make my parents feel happy and proud of me…(that’s the 80% of reasons why i put it as my first choice) and yeah…i’ve got it.!!
Scared and apprehensive cos I feel that i’ll be facing challenges and will be going through a hardtime making myself used to the life there.
Sad cos i’ll be leaving my family and friends to live in a whole new environment. Sad cos i’ll be leaving this place which i have lived for 22 years. Sad cos i’ll be leaving this place which is full of memories and which had brought me various joys and sorrows(which i think it’s priceless).
Fearful cos i’ve never live alone in a place so far from home which i could not just take a 4 hour bus ride or drive back home or make a call and dad will be coming to fetch me…(sigh….chia huan sounds like a spoilt kid)??
I’ve never thought i’m such a "home/family girl"…I’ve always thought that i’m outgoing and playful and like new places and will be looking forward to new challenges(sorry for so many and)… I never expected the moment i got the offer, I feel like crying cos i’m going to leave a place which i’m familiar to…I never knew that i actually dislike changes…
But, there’s this 21.35% of me feeling excited…To be able to study abroad…To have the chance of learning new things and learn to live in a brand new environment…To have the opportunity to brave through challenges in life and hopefully become a better, better, better person…To be more independent and cry less…..hee…=)
I’m conquering Melbourne soon….(what a big word to use…)
