It's been a long time since I blogged. Indeed, I am glad that I took my time in coming here again.
All this while, this blog was a part of an assignment - a means to score marks. Now that this semester is over and done with, I can get down to penning down, or should I say typing down my true thoughts.
This one year has been a time of learning, re-learning and un-learning. I had to learn how to move about a new city, how to cook edible food and lots of other how's too. I had to re-learn what it means to be independent and what it means to trust once again. But the most important learning was in the process of 'unlearning'. I had to unlearn 'how to write stuff', 'how to do stuff' and above all I had to unlearn my so-called 'professional style of working'.
It has been a difficult year since every thing was new and I no longer had my safety net of family and friends with me any more. It's not easy being away from home in a new country where every thing from food, clothes, language, and culture is different.
In the next few weeks, I hope to talk about incidents that happened during my practicum, my stay in an uni-sex residence and my interaction with people from all over the world.
For now I shall get back to searching for part-time jobs on the internet. Here's hoping something pans out for me.
