After one whole week of studying in Taylor’s Lakeside Campus, I have learned a very valuable lesson. It has been awkward being questioned and stared throughout the week because of my return to Malaysia. What’s more was when the lecturers said something indirectly related to me, everybody gave me the look.
I admit that I felt inferior due to my return that most people perceive it as a failure of being able to adapt to the overseas environment. It is difficult going through these times when I have to face this fact and carry on with my life. Now I know what does it mean when I studied Business and Society and they said that begging is work. This is because a beggar needs to face the humiliation that the public perceives of him/her when begging for money. It is a difficult task trying to overcome that humiliation and feeling of inferiority.
I know I am exaggerating my situation. But I did learn something from here. I should not look down on those who did not do well in their studies. I admit that I may sometimes have overlooked this and have this mindset. The fact that I felt inferior because of this is evidence that I had this stereotype. If I do not have this perception, I wouldn’t have felt so inferior of studying back in Malaysia.
From now on, I have learnt my lesson and I will not look down on those who perform poorly in their studies. People should always be given second chances and me as well. I’ll show the world what I am capable of!

Woots, didnt know that you have such tough time...
Is it possible to claim that you dont have money to sustain for another year, so you come back for studies? Haha...
Well, I have faith in you since you have been couping quite alot of pressure during studies...
P/s: Seriously, not putting pressure but more on reassurance XD
Cheerlious~
Yea, I should have started off with that reason, rather than being so honest.
But I think those explaining is almost done already. Just wanna forget about it.
Thanks for believing in me. Let's just finish this final year with flying colours! haha
take care and try not to think too much really. let them say what they like about you. it is you who will walk your path and it is you that chose it. it is none of other business. look down if they want to. will support the decision you make all the way. most importantly your happy now.
quite irritating for it if your tired of explaining or hearing just let it be. take care
oh nai loong, don't worry. Now, I think all those stuff is over already FINALLY.
Glad that everything is back to normal now, and I am having a great time as I think I have already adapted back the environment here fully again. :)
