Home not-quite-sweet home
Hello, I've been back in Malaysia for the past 3 weeks. For good.
I've graduated from university but didn't attend our graduation ceremony nor have a graduation certificate to show because my parents decided that, due to aftermath of that M9 earthquake has turned Tokyo into a place that was not quite safe (but seriously, things weren't as bad as they kept exaggerating on CNN), we should leave Japan and get back to Malaysia as early as we could. I didn't want to leave Tokyo, at least not that early but all my arguments against my mother were never heeded.
I had the most hectic last 3 days of my life in Japan. That was the amount of days left we had before our new flight departure time. I had to settle unpaid bills that still wouldn't arrive at the time, went for a job interview, return borrowed items to faraway friends and many more other matters, and this was back when trains were scarce because of the post-quake scheduled power downtimes and more mess. I don't know how I survived those 3 days but I did. At least I had a blast one day by meeting up with one of my favourite mangaka (who happens to be obsessed with Glee too right now).
It feels great how I could catch a breather ever since I reached Malaysia (and actually still laze around for almost a month since, lol) but I still hate life here. I would elaborate more on that but a long life history rant will be needed, and that's not something I wanna do at 2am so I'll spare you from that for now.
Still, life isn't all downsides anyway. Those who know me enough knows that if life gives me lemons, I make ultra sweet lemon juice out of them. Besides living a very repressed life under the same roof as my parents (not right now though, they went on a 10-day pilgrimage at Mecca), I've been job-hunting while also lazing around doing things that make me happy. Been busy meeting up with relatives and catching up with friends too.
That's all for now I guess. Heh, this turns out to be a boring update. Sorry that I couldn't reply to everyone in the previous entry where I updated on my post-quake status but thank you so much for your comments. :)
