FIRST DAY















I am so happy and glad for graduated from my secondary school – because there’s no more homework!Today is the first day where I stepped my feet in the hostel of my university,University Tunku Abdul Rahman-UTAR. I would never ever forget this hectic day.

24th May 2009 is the day i left Klang to Kampar, Perak. I arrived at the hostel office at 1.30p.m. The first thing I need to do is to get the keys of my room. Luckily my aunt had booked a room for me by online. So what I had to do is to take a number and wait for my turn. Once I pulled out the paper from the machine, I shouted in my heart, “WHAT!!!?? My number is 1311 and the screen is showing 1207! I had to wait for 104 more people to pass their payment receipt before my turn. The weather is so hot and dry. The sweat from my face is keep on dripping. After an hour I had finally got my turn to give my payment receipt to the person in charge. Next I need to sign my room agreement which allowed me to stay there for one year. Then, I need to wait for another one and half hours to get my room keys.

It really droved me crazy. I was wasting my time for 3 hours just to sign an agreement and take my room keys. I saw a lot of parents complaining and giving their lecture to the staff that can’t do anything on the stupid system.
My uncle and aunt help me to unload my things from their car boots. I was very regret for bringing so many things here. My room is at the highest floor of a triple storey house. It used 3/4 of my energy to take all my things up to my room. The place where I lived now was given a name called Danish House and my house is Oxford house. There are 4 type of houses in Danish House. That is Oxford House, Yale House, Tsing Hua House and Mancheter House.

I have a room mate, Pei Vern. She came from Taiping. It is quite near from Utar. I found out she is a very soft person. She cried once her parents leaved her. I told her not to cry and tried to talk to her hoping that she will forget about her sadness. But look likes it was useless. She cried again when she was on her bed trying to sleep. What can I do is just telling her that she will go home one day because her house is near the college and not like me. My house is actually 300km away-cos it is in Klang, Selangor.

I had make a few frens here. They are Pei Vern, Jazz-staying beside my room, Ah Wyng- stay second floor and siao siang-staying ground floor. They are all my house mate. We always cycle everywhere together-around Westlakes and Eastlakes. There are some of my house mates that dont like to come out to makes frens. They just like to lock themselves inside their rooms. I really dun understand how they can stand this kind of weather-because the weather here is super hot! Even my room door and windows are always open.
