I've been back in Malaysia for technically.. 1 week? But, I was in Thailand for a few days, so I don't know how to count the days that I actually am back in Malaysia. I'll talk about Thailand in a bit. =) Anyway, I'm back! That's it! My whole AIESEC exchange journey is over and I've left lots of memories in Vietnam and I've also learnt so many new things. =) I can honestly say that I'm really grateful to be back, because I was with my family and also, I get to see my boyfriend! But on the other hand, I miss the life, the people, the food in Vietnam and I do wonder when we will see each other again. =/ This picture that I've shared is taken when I'm about to leave Vietnam, it's the last picture I took in Ho Chi Minh City. When my friends sent me off in Vietnam, some of them were crying, but I didn't. =x I don't know why I didn't. Is it because I don't feel as close to them as I'm supposed to? Ah, maybe. I'm honestly not sure. But there's also a part of me that really hates crying in public so I only cry in public when I can't hold it in anymore. I've been meaning to write this post for a while now, but was super duper busy the past few days, so it's delayed.
The first thing that I noticed when I touched down in KLIA was that, I understood the language that I hear. It was so torturing in Vietnam that I totally do not get what people are saying around me. And being constantly exposed to Vietnamese and French language, it was really giving me a headache. When I reached KLIA, there were many languages spoken around me; Malay, Mandarin, Hokkien, English, Cantonese, but I'm proud to say that I understood them all. It really feels good to be in my native land. =) And the currency, YAY! back to MYR so I don't have to do the conversion in my head to gauge how expensive something is. That felt really good too! =)
In my whole exchange journey, there was a lot of ups and downs, but the one thing I regret about, the thing that I felt like I could do better, is to give more effort in the project I was in. I'm always like this, not giving all I can to push for something better. If somebody else is capable of doing it, by all means, do it. I didn't push for much change, or even if I could see fault in some things, I let it slide, because I could feel my laziness creeping up on me. My brain just wants to take a break, and I did not want to take up much responsibilities. I'm constantly hearing the phrase, "I know you can do much better." But when am I ever going to take action to "do much better?"
