This is the morning sun I've been seeing every morning on the way to college. It's been a long time since I catch a glimpse of the sunrise. High school ended, holidays were over, and now it's the time to start new things all over. During the holidays, I slept, not late at night, but early in the morning. My parents' alarm clock was about to ring just a couple of hours later. Everyone was about to wake up while I finally manage to get into my dreams. By the time I wake up, it was late afternoon. Mealtimes where no longer in my dictionary. I ate brunch when it was almost dinnertime. To sum it all up, is there a "brunchner"??

All I did was just going for dance classes every weeknight. Just to kill time and avoid gaining weight. Hanging out with friends off and on even when they were busy working on weekdays and some that have already started their college life. I felt kind of left out at some point. Where everyone was moving on while I just mooch around at home. Then there were decisions and choices to make. What to do after getting my SPM results, what course to choose and which college to go. To be honest, my first option was to choose sound engineering. Unfortunately, after some friends' and relative's advice, I chose broadcasting.

Being here in Taylor's University College taking Diploma in Communication, though it was not what I wanted to do in the beginning, I feel that I've made the right choice. And hopefully I have. I just hope I won't regret at the end of the day.

With a new start since 29th March 2010, I did something I felt was unbelievable. I slept before midnight and woke up when the sky was still dark. Good start, I thought. At least I wasn't late for orientation. First day was kind of boring. Yes, I get to meet new people and make new friends, but the sad thing was, I had lunch by myself. It wasn't that bad, actually. My brother used to tell me, when you do something by yourself, you will pay more attention and observe more on what you are doing. I agree. But lunch that day was nothing but a plate of noodles just to keep me from starving to death.

Second day of orientation turned out better. I ate chicken rice for lunch with a group of new friends. Nice people, nice lunch. The only thing I dislike about that day was the air conditioner at the auditorium. Obviously, people are complaining about it. On second thought, who cares? We're already moving to lakeside soon.

Time flies. Now it's already the third week of college and I'm starting to get used to it. Yes, I know. It's kind of slow. Suits me though, I like taking my own sweet time. Still, assignments are piling up and I'm forced to move faster. Assignments aren't that bad. But boring assignments are a pain in the neck! I'm not going to accuse anyone or any subject for that. This is college life! So I'll have to bear with it.

Life now isn't like when it was in high school. There are some similarities, but it's a whole lot different. New environment. New people. New friends. New subject. Not really a new life, but a new timetable. That's what I think about this whole new beginning!
