Tampinesian Alien

Today marks the first day as a resident of the east, Tampines. I feel so weird on this unfamiliar grounds. I've been in the west for 20years, since I was about 9 years old. Now on this foreign ground, I have to adapt myself. There's one good point though, I'll be alone at most times and I am the sort that loves to be alone at home. Its not that I don't socialize, I do but outside not at home. At home I prefer to be on my own, I don't like to be bothered when I am doing my own stuffs, simple as that.

The kind soul who let me stay here is Hadi, my dear cousin. He invited me to stay here, since his place will be more or less vacant. God has been kind to me, Alhamdullilah. I need guidance, seriously. Slowly, I want to go to the 'right' path and my journey has not been a really smooth one so far as I have been diverted off course at times but I am glad, I was not diverted far and I manage to do a U-turn back.

I was thinking, maybe less friends over here can be good for me. It means I can have more time to indulge in my own activities and probably its a good time to take my degree but I'd let myself settle down and all. It is not wise to jump into something you are not really 100% ready to commit yet, especially a degree which may be very costly.

Ain greeted me in the morning with an sms, welcoming to her hometown, her neighborhood and later, she's gonna accompany me to do a little shopping. I need a mini wadrobe or cupboard where I can place my clothes and my other belongings and probably a table. I wonder if $100-200 sufficient for all. If not I will have to wait till pay day this Saturday. I think I'm going to hold back on that pair of boots for awhile, anyway I am not going to be on track till 28th as Elvan only starting training then and I wouldn't want to go for my virgin session alone. I can buy my boots after my payday.

I think I am going to encash my remaining annual-leaves for I can foresee that I might need more cash end of the year. I have about 5 days left.

Alright guys, gotta go and continue unpacking. I am going to miss my friends in the west. They are a bunch of lovely people. I love them all. Thanks fellows for being great friends. You have made up for the lack of belonging in me....cheers mates, God bless you all, InsyahAllah....
