We're all mad in our own way.

I think I should stop watching Ghost Whisperer because after I watch the show, my house lights flicker like crazy, making me think my house is possessed.
Shut up. I am NOT crazy.

I know I did this before, but that was in the earlier blog, so I'm doing this to christen this new blog with a music tag.
Shut up. I am NOT crazy.

I know, a lot of David Cook references in this tag. I can't help it, most of my songs are in that old PC named Tomas (who still hasn't been brought back to life yet).

*****

In a week's time, I will be starting my third year.

My final year.

It was exactly three years ago that I very innocently entered college.

I know my dad was slightly disappointed about my decision to turn down the offer from UIA to do Economics and Management Sciences and become the next Governor of Bank Negara. He still tells people this when people ask me what and where I'm studying.

I know my mum was highly disappointed that I went to a private university instead of a public one even when they said I could change to my preferred course.

They still supported me nonetheless and defend me every time someone comes up with a snide remark about my course and how I won't have a job in the future.

I think I have grown taller in more ways than physical in the last three years of my tertiary education life.

I've learnt to appreciate the people around me who are incredibly supportive and would be so honest and upfront with me about things.
I've learnt to appreciate things like good food and good company.
I've learnt to appreciate people as they are and for what they believe in.
I've learnt to appreciate the library as a place to study (I used to study either at home or in empty classrooms).
I've learnt to appreciate little random things like singing old songs from Spice Girls and Britney Spears AND taking photos of people sleeping in class.

I've learnt to have faith in everything and everyone.

Everyone has a good side, at the end of the day.

By the time this final year ends, I will learn more because half of what you learn everyday doesn't come from the classroom or lecture halls, in fact it comes from the conversations from the random people you meet everyday.

They are my heroes.
