Of Earth, Wind and Fire

Earth, one time it was covered with white frosty snow. Wind, most of the time is prickling cold and dead chilly. And Fire, most of the time does almost nothing in the sense of giving warmth and heat. That's basically how it is here. Cold, gloomy, windy, dark... If this was a person, it's a person with a villainous character. Like Ralph Fiennes, or Jeremy Irons, or even Tim Roth. Wicked evil yet calm and almost subtle. We hate 'em but can't get enough of 'em and we can't really not love 'em. That's Brit for you, mate. The weather, the people, the town, the food. They all give us that same cold, gloomy, uncomfortable feeling. And we can't quite hate it.

I started my first class last Friday (Friday being my student day, 2 classes only both on Friday) It was somewhat tantalizing, being the first time I'm becoming a student again after 4 years.
It was uplifting and interesting as the first class was (although, I don't want to speak too soon).

As of now, I choose not to predict how it is going to be. I can't remember how everything was when I did my first degree. I don't really know what to expect, what to feel, what to do, how to do it. Honestly, most of the time I'm befuddled. Not with the lesson, which I can proudly say that 4 years working has done a lot with my understanding towards the business, but the university life, coping with student environment and mixing around. I know I'm doing the right thing, but I'm not sure I'm doing it right. I think maybe 4 years is too long of a pause. Hopefully, in due time I will cope and pace up.


By the way, this is the picture of an eventful first snow fall, happening Friday afternoon. This view is from our room overlooking rumah jiran. Not quite a nice picture though, as I have more in my friendster, but hey, tak kan tak jeles kot.... hahahahahahah.
