new place, new beginning, new culture

it has been almost a month moving to a new place. and last week is the first week of my final semester in university. well, i should say everything is starting alright. i like the new place as the people act more like people. they are not the typical hide-in-the-room students. =) i get to socialize more which is a good thing as this means i am not hiding in my room surfing the net. whats more, Mcd is just five minute away. the market is also closer. this means buying grocery becomes more convenient. the home cooked meals have been more frequent too. this translates to a healthier lifestyle. good good. hopefully this semester brings fresh perspectives as well.

the tax law subject brings a very interesting lecturer. somehow, this man-eater lecturer throws obscenities and vulgar words in a manner that astounded all my friends. personally, i can tolerate such behaviour, considering my hokkien background. harsher than that is the minimum level i am used to. at such, this is no biggie. however, his tantrum causes irritation. shouting at the computer for technical difficult is just plain scary.

all this while, i seldom update my news feed on facebook for privacy reasons. i think for those who update too frequently like every hour and then is plain annoying. don't you think where you go, what you eat, whoever you are with are none of my business? ever heard of MYOB? mind your own business and do not push your every single miniscule activity to others. it must be due to lack of love and attention at home huh? and today i saw an article which states that such action is childlike desire to seek attention.

towards a certain extent, i believe counselling should be given to such individuals. or am i whining too much like a grandpa that i should just quit facebook for good. i did de-activate my account for one day. i find it quite liberating. probably the thought of doing again is very tempting. try it. it feels like having a fresh air. i can understand why certain individuals choose to remain oblivious to facebook. good choice, mate!

blogger feels a little anxious as his homework is piling up. he will gambateh tomorrow. for whatever it is, time to do a little motivation reading before sleeping. an nyeong. ciao.
