Countdown!

6 days to go. And I'm off to the states! Woohoo!

Zain told me he's tired of waiting. Well so am I actually, in a way. But in reality I'm really having the best time of my life here now, so I don't want to leave either. Sigh. It's time to leave all these behind after all. I really do hope this will last in the future. 6 days, thats all I've got. Every second counts.

Everyone had their classes started already. There's a different pattern of feedback from my friends about their lives in universities. First off, Carnegie Mellon! JX sounds like he's having such a smashing time over there. Makes me kinda regret not going there after all. I've always thought and heard that ppl there are geeky, ugly, fat...the weather is cold, evil, cold,... and the air there is polluted. Life there is stressed with work and ppl would have to work their asses off just to do well in class. Haha, turns out that JX reported differently though. Well dude not to scare u or anything, but this is just the beginning. Let's see how much is true :P. But I'm sure wherever u go its only what u make of it. I know u'll do well man.

Purdue = family. The 4 of you guys stick to each other like lovers, not to mention you stay so far away from everyone, if not everything else. But its great in a way too, everything feels so much like home. You got each other, ppl who truly cares, from the same place with same interests. Its pretty fun too :)

Michigan = stickier family. The way I see it, non of you guys are detaching from the group to mix around with the Americans. Well, all but one that is :P. But I bet you guys are planning to do so. CheeYong told me you guys are really good friends now, so its good to hear. Just don't stick in the kampung forever. Now I see why JPA is afraid of sending too many ppl to one university in the same batch.

Haven't really talked to the rest of you guys yet, only read about how you are in the blogs. Vanessa, Hooi Ju, HanMing, Yeong..do keep in touch.

All the best. 6 more days.....6 more days...
