New Chapter

Well, let's start from the day I arrived here yeah? My flight delayed for 30mins, arrived here around 5.30PM. You know what? My very very old sport shoes' base went opened. So what to do? I went to ask for rubber bands from a cleaner aunty at the airport. She didn't know what is "rubber bands" then I showed her my hair-tied rubber band. KIK.

Took a bus for about 2hrs to reach the hotel. In between, we shifted to another small van. Eldest brother talked to the driver using Cantonese. He is a very friendly old man. His daughter is studying medical course in Russia now and he kept wishing me good luck. Reached hotel only at 7.30PM. After that, we went for our dinner straight. I missed my mum when I was eating suddenly. This caused my appetite to be a bit low. Then we went to Sungai Wang there to do a little shopping and bought some groceries for my future usage too. I think around 9+PM, we went back to the hotel.

Actually I was going to stay at the hotel with my family on the first night and moved in my place only on the second day. But instead of King size bed, we got 2 single beds. How to sleep for 3 people (eldest bro, dad and me)? Also, brothers' friend who is living at Sri Petaling will help me to brings my luggage over to my place on that night so that we don't need to be so rushed the next day. Since I have the key and everything, why don't I just sleep there straight away? Right? I went to the LRT station myself to meet my family the next morning.

Went for breakfast but most of the shops haven't started their business during that time. So in the end, we just ate at an Indian restaurant. Not bad though the food there. But I have no idea why my appetite went so low. I can't even finish a small plate of fried mee. Carrefour supermarket the next destination. Did the rest of my groceries shopping and bought myself some more furniture too. The supermarket is like Brunei Giant, everything is kinda cheap there. I like it. There is many other shops in the building as well but I didn't get the time to explore more. It was around 11:15PM that time. I only left with my bank account to deal with. But during lunch time, no taxi will want to bring you due to heavy traffic jam. So everyone rested at my place for a while and went back to Imbi.

After lunch, eldest brother and daddy brought me to the bank nearby while 2nd brother and sis-in-law went to shop. If not mistaken, it was almost 3PM after everything was done. Brother and daddy then brought me to the monorail station and I went back to my area alone. I went to the wrong direction though. I need to go left but I went on to the monorail which was going right. I felt something's not right so I asked a Chinese man beside me whether I had really got on the wrong one. I need to go for the monorail at the other side. I went out at the next station right away and a young lady automatically came to me to tell me how to go to the other side. Thank God!

I need to change to LRT to get to my place after that. But I can't find where is it. I'm worried I will get the wrong one again so I straight away ask the people around. Lastly, I was home safely!! Feel great for God's blessings!! I started my cleaning right after that. Done everything around 7PM, took a rest and bathed then wait to skype with mum and 3rd brother. We skyped for one and a half hour. Talked so much. Brother said mummy was very happy after that. I miss her very much!!

Guess all of you are very interested in knowing whether did I cry or not eh? Well, before I left home, tears dropped when I hugged my mum. Mummy was going to cry too but she held it in and told me many things. She is a strong mum! I felt like crying after I was out of my Kampong's simpang because I know I am not going to see my mum in person so soon again anymore. It's not a vacation. But I tried not to think about it and was okay then. When I read my brother's tweets, felt down again because my home is getting emptier now. I hope they are doing fine over there. When I was doing my cleaning and saw mum's photos with me, tears dropping non stop. Seriously, whenever I think of my mum, my eyes go teary! Even now. But I'm fine though. Maria's present made me tears dropped too. But all of these times, I don't think I was totally sad when crying. I smiled. =)

I didn't really sleep well on the first night. Not used to it. But last night I slept kinda soundly. I had a very beautiful dream on the first night too. Oya, I wanna thank Franz for visiting me on the night before I left, thank maria for sending me off at the airport right after she arrived there from Kuching, thank Fufu for the text, thank Han for calling me and wasted all his credits until zero, thank wen for trying to call too but I rejected it, and thank to the rest who greeted me at Facebook. Big thank to my family who give me so much loves and cares! I miss everyone back in Brunei and I'll be back real soon. Time flies and December will be here very fast! I can't wait for it now!

What a long long post. Till next time. God bless!

Love Hui ♥
