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 ?

Randolph wise words

"I was trying to put myself in a bottle that would one day wash up on the beach for my children. If I were a painter, I would have painted for them. But I am a lecturer so I lectured. - Randy Pausch" These days, I used to spent a lot of time in the Book Xcess bookstore alone during the weekends. There, a lot of books are old and 'ancient' but still are practically useful for the current time. I coincidentally found this non-fiction book by Randy Pausch. It was displayed at the most top shelf with the words best selling books written on the shelf. 5 million copies of this book has been sold out. So, I thought there must be something interesting about this book. I just grab it, took the stool and sat at one of the corner to read it. Once I read the book page by page, it was so addictive that I couldn't stop. Each sentences struck me right in the heart. By the time I realized I should stop and just buy that book, I have already read half of the book. It was t...

Have you been there?

Assalamualaikum again! I like to observe people. Their life. Comparing it with my life. I learn to be grateful by doing those things. Really. When I was in the hospital during my clinical days, it's one of those days that all of the students need to go to the hospital and learn something from a very busy and occupied doctor( Sometimes, I felt like I'm a burden to the doctor, lol, but yes.), I always like to observe the enviroment. It's because the enviroment in the hospital is totally different from elsewhere that I had went to. Only people with problems come to the hospital. If you have that kind of opportunity to go to the hospital,have a look at those people in the eyes. Trust me, you' ll be able to feel the empathy. Sometimes, I saw parents who bring their child to the hospital with the intention to cure them. People who bring their mom or dad to the hospital just to see their parents as healthy as before. But sometimes, no. They can't get what they want. ...

The littlest things in life.

Trust are not meant to be taken for granted.   It is from an event of life that a person limit their trust to his/her circle of human of choice. As for me, I may be nice to everyone but my trust is not easy to be gained. Please appreciate people when they trusted you. The most important trust that you can never take for granted is from your parents.  For me, I appreciate when my parents trusted me more than anyone else. Whatever stories that they heard from other people, they choose to listen to me first and I can never exchange that with anything. Feel blessed and grateful for not all of us are given that specialty. Respect your parents as they are the person that should earn that without attempt. When they give you the freedom, do not misused it. It was not easy for them. I guess you will one day understand when you are in their shoes. As a daughter, I know I am not that good but whenever I am deciding things or doing something, the  people that will appear firs...
