1. The first day I stayed in hostel was back in year 2000. From the moment my parents said good bye, I started to realise things that I never had; the smells of clothes, the sounds of music, other human behaviours and etc. I started to really understand myself.
2. Back then, one of the unforgettable memories were the scenes of my route to the mosque. It was so dusky, narrower and scary. Actually, it was not that bad. My brain interpreted it that way because I was governed by this homesick feeling.
3. I kept telling my dad and mom about these; how I hate those feelings, felt so lonely and uncomfortable. Dad kept telling me, so is life! No matter where you are, you are lonely. If you learn to embrace those feelings and situations, you will be stronger. These uncomfortable and insecure thinking will keep you working harder, be more alert and appreciate things better. Ia takkan pernah hilang, but you will learn to live with them.
4. Selepas bertahun-tahun, after so many stages of life, daripada zaman KMB, university dan zaman berkerja yang dah banyak tempat, I still have those feelings. Only this time, I learn to live with them peacefully...
P/s: And this is one of the scenes that reminisces me all the treasures of memories, brushing all the cobwebs...
