Homesickness is finally setting in, for real.

I'm trying to change -not to overwhelm myself with too many things at once. Right now, I'm just trying to find a comfortable spot on the hard chair while squinting at the laptop screen, devouring the oh-so-dull computing notes. I'm nearing the end of my second trimester, and I don't think I've changed (or have been changed) so much in such a short span of time, mentally, emotionally and ermm physically. I still feel very much surprised at the way some of the things are run around here, sometimes. And just when I thought I knew the people around me well, they would sneak behind my back and startle me (metaphorically of course). We're all Malaysians, but I must say that my circle of friends here are made up of very diverse minds, VERY indeed. Having spent six months with them, they have left traces of themselves in me, my character and my perspectives, and I them.

Pillows don't work against chairs with extremely straight backs and hard seats. I speak from experience.

Computing beckons. sighs
