Auf Wiedersehen

Attention, passengers: this is your conductor. The train is about to leave to the next station. Please ensure you have a valid ticket for travel. Please ensure you bring all your belongings with you including your memories throughout your stay here. Have a great and pleasant journey. To those who are going back home, welcome back. Take care and safe journey!

Auf Wiedersehen is a german word to bid goodbye. It means I'll see you again and that's not the end. How smart they are, not to use goodbye. Saying goodbye as if that's the end of us and we'll not see each other again. That's sad!

I guess every starting has the ending. As a student, we will surely graduate one day leaving the place that somehow feels like home to us. Kindergarten graduation, primary school graduation, high school graduation but nothing really compares to what's next - our tertiary education graduation. Ecstatic, that's what we felt when we finally graduated and next will be able to continue our journey and adventures. But with all those happiness comes equally sadness. Soon, we are going to leave our second home, where our friends and the community feels so familiar to us. We'll leave the environment we are so comfortable with. We'll leave the place where so much memories are made and the place where we grow. It's hard to leave but it's time to move on.

As for me, I will be leaving a place I always feel like home. I'll be leaving my good friends, my family and the place I am so comfortable with. It's not easy. It hits right in the heart. I grew there for the past 6 years. It has been an extremely good place to me. There were countless of memories and experience gained over the past years.

But, the memories we made will stay with us, we will stay friends forever, we will catch up with each other over a cup of coffee or tea sooner than we think. To my friends, you should know that you'll stay in my heart forever, okay? (shed tears, I'm such a baby haha)

As for now, we need to continue the adventures to see the world, to learn and grow. We'll meet new friends soon, new home, new community. It wouldn't be the same, I agree, but at least, those are the people that will make us happy too in the future. Open up yourself to a new changes, be positive about it, you'll find happiness and you'll heal. You'll heal. You'll heal. You'll heal. And you will be happy again.

"Goodbyes are not forever. Goodbyes are not the end. They simply mean I'll miss you, until we meet again!"

Our train to the next station is here, shall we wipe our tears and continue the journey ahead ?

Life is trying to teach you something

Hello there! Sorry for the long wait. So, here you go.  Here come an urgent story after a reflection made few weeks ago. I just felt the urge and the need for me to write and share this. As you know, I have been working in a pharmacy for quite sometimes now. It has been around 4 months I guess. Though definitely, I am extremely tired and I got no time to pamper myself, it gave me priceless experience. It’s a place that taught me to appreciate people, trust (this one I’ve got some issue with it too. Trust is basically not easy. It’s build over time so work hard to gain it) and respect people no matter who they are and their social status or educational background.  Initially, it feels like there’s nothing I can gain from working there. Not that I believe in all those supplements can help with diseases. These days, when I felt like I was doing a thing without having a benefit, I would start to do my own reflection. It was like a homework to me. Thank you to that one...

Learn to listen

I like how people talk about life to me. I like to appreciate every bits of words and adjectives they used to describe their life when talking to me. Things like how they describe their love towards their parents and family, how they overcome their problem, how they rise and fall in life really attract me. It was like reading a book but instead I just need to listen. Although sometimes I like to talk in between their speech but most of the time, believe me, I listen. When you really listen to what people tell you, you will get to learn a lesson from it. Part of me love to evaluate, (sometimes judge, I know it's bad but can't help. I am human.) process it and then learn the lesson. For someone that trusted me and I trusted them, I will TRY to advice though sometimes it doesn't really help. However, I know by lending my ears to listen to them, I help if not a lot just a little might do.  People make mistakes. I myself make a lot of mistakes in life. I myself am not th...

What's new?

How ’s me? Life has been great so far Alhamdulillah. Indeed, when you let go of the painful things that you ’ve been holding on for so long, you’ll be at peace and you’ll be happy. Being dependent on a person is not good, you’ll feel lost once they are away. “What’s meant for you will reach you even if it’s beneath two mountains. What isn’t won’t reach you even if it’s between your two lips.” And so these words heal. Always. Anyway, Let’s start. I have been occupying my holidays doing a few things at once right now. It all started as a volunteer with the Sarawak Children Cancer Society (SCCS) at the hospital. There, I knew a few doctors and pharmacists. These doctors enjoyed dragging me around in their rounds and clinics but I don’t really haha. So, these doctors has got a lot of on hold project for the community that they wanted to arrange but they ain’t got no time for that. Thus, they asked me to arrange it for them. This year, it was about the health fair project 2...
