Another week has passed.
Again.
In a blink of an eye.
However,

Emotionally I went through lots of ups and downs this week.
Cried twice.
One was when I heard my mum's voice through the phone after a stressful day having lectures.
Another was when I chat with my best buddy talking about how dreadfully I miss our old days.
I have no idea why I cried.
The moment I heard their voice,
beads of tears just uncontrollably trickled down my cheeks.

Eventually, I had a chat with lots of my friends.
Zhangpei, Shilei, Shiyau, Tongyin, Jiangyu, Shengyuan, Shirong
and
the Nott fellows.
Some of them were in China,
some in Singapore,
one in India,
and others were in the same school compound with me.
(A big thanks indeed to our high-technology.)
When we chat,
we were laughing, giggling and chuckling almost till the end we hung up.

You feel safe and comfortable.”

Indeed.
We wouldn't have to pay any attention for phony greetings.
The moment we spoke,
we start to mock each other sarcastically.
Hahaha.
But of course some our topics were sad and depressing,
We tried our best consoling each other,
encouraging each other,
and cheering up each other.
Though we were far aparted,
but knowing that all of us are going through the same obstacles together,
everything seems bright again.
“We are lonely, but we are not alone.”
Overall,
My very first week at Nott seems negative.
“We are not broken, just bent.”
However,
I did received lots of love since I came here.
And well,
some of my "first time" were dedicated to the moments I spent here too.
Haha.
Such as,
First time visiting the so-called biggest shopping center in kl - Mid Valley.
First time buying groceries with friends in Tesco.
First time cooking in our uni's kitchen.
First time finding simple meal cooked with love is the best.
First time swimming with my girlfriends.
First time chatting with all my dearests through Skype.
First time being so overjoyed to hear a voice that I really miss.
And
First time realizing my life really can't leave out these familiar face and voice.
