One month ago, I stepped out of my comfort zone and came into this foreign land. I have traveled almost half the globe to see so much, hear so much and feel so much within such a short period of my life. I have identified this small room as my home and the people around me as my friends and family here. I have to adjust to a new life, getting used to the academic workload and take responsible for my own decisions.
Things were not smooth sailing all this while. There were times where I was running late for class, clutching the campus map and trying hard to navigate alone in the bitter wind. There were times when I feel small, amidst the class of Americans. There were times I have made mistakes and wish that someone was beside me to take charge. There were times I cried after a call from home.
But there were also good times, where friendships were forged, lessons were learned and experiences earned. I am thankful that I have friends for support and care and I know that they are (literally) a door away.
One month down, three more to go!

haha I was also thinking just now if it had been one month for you! Whatever you do, beware of what is happening around you, be alert and stay with a safe crowd. Don’t wonder alone in lonely path hor.
