...Orientation...

First day of orientation can never get more boring than this! Oh well, I can't expect too much from UBD as well. But it's fair enough to have a few redundant speeches and prayers. At least the tour around the university was quite useful, despite having to sweat so much.

Knowing me, I escaped the afternoon events, predicting that the boredom of listening to more speeches will be suicidal. Luckily, I managed to pull myself out during lunch hour and headed home.

I don't really know why I've been so tired and lethargic back in Brunei. I always blame the weather. That may be a fact though. Lol... Tomorrow is another day for the orientation week. I'm looking forward to it more as it's for the faculty itself. At least I'll get to meet my fellow coursemates and the teaching staffs too.

For the rest of the week, I'll just skip. I reckon it's more sensible for me to give myself a break and go back to lessons fresh next week. All those activities sounds irrelevant for me. I'll give myself more tennis, badminton, swimming, gym and relaxing time this week.

For now, I really miss the group back in Sydney. They're simply just different. And life back there is much more independent. Most probably, it's the culture and privacy there that I miss a lot too. But it's not like I have a choice. Too bad...

But on the positive side, at least I get to study something that I love. So, I'll most probably just use the university for it's IM, and nothing else. Perhaps, 3 years of sacrifice is worth it in the long term. Just hope that things go according to plan now.

It's going to be a busy week with everything to settle with...
