All alone in the house now. Mum & Dad went to the market, eldest bro was gone before I even woke up, elder bro went out to meet up with his girl and sis went out for part-time job (I think). Me? I’m just waiting to receive the freshmen list for Orientation so that I can call them and then out I go with JN in the evening. We’re going to watch Chingay! Haven’t gone for Chingay before. Quite excited =)
The morning spent alone at home was pretty nice. Personal time to think about things. Read the reflection sheet by my batchmates. Rather insightful. I’ve got to say that I have lesser ‘don’t complain so much’ comments and I am really happy that they have noticed the change. I think that now I actually do make the effort to try not to complain about things that I don’t feel satisfied with and I hope that this has improved my relationship with them. I’m not changing for them or to suit them, but rather I am changing for myself. So whether or not people notice this change in me and acknowledge it does not bother me.
Replacing the ‘don’t complain so much’ comments that I used to have the previous time we carried out the same reflection exercise, I now have many many comments saying that I am a ‘Makcik’, or in English it means ‘Auntie’. Hai. That bad ah? I don’t know if it is a positive or a negative comment and how I should be reacting to it. Am I supposed to not be so Makcik? But if that is who I am, why should change? Unless it is affecting my relationship with others, I don’t quite see a need to change that Auntie part in me. I am who I am, who cares?
Pretty encouraging notes from the batch, especially from Lemuel Will Fong. I really didn’t expect him to write that but yeah, really touched that he did. I hope that it was a sincere note from him. No, I shouldn’t be doubting him. Yeah, I trust that it was a sincere note. JIAYOU LEMUEL! TOGETHER, WE’LL FORM THE FORMIDABLE DUO! 
I’m really thankful that I have this awesome group of people with me, all TWENTY-TWO of them!
In or Out?
