Ahoy there, minna! It has been over a year since we last
saw each other.
How’s everyone been? XD
After I moved countries I got kinda… occupied. At first
it was just me being lazy to write anything, plus this blog was laden with depressing
things – while I was like… pretty happy in real life, so I didn’t really feel
like writing anything ‘cause it would just kinda, I don’t know, ruin the dark
flow? Hahahaha.
Anyway, my life in Thailand was – is, exhilaratingly
awesome (okay, not really, I exaggerated a little). I mean… I feel so freeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.
That probably sounded really idiotic. XP
Well, now that I’m happy it’s not like I thought I was
stupid when I was depressed or anything (I mean, even when I’m mentally fine I
can still agree wholeheartedly with my past depressing thoughts, haha). --It
was a nice experience! Everything in life is an experience!!
But after actually moving countries… when I was in
Australia, in the actual environment that was just, to be simply put, turning me
crazy… it was just that. It was “an environment that was turning me crazy”.
But after moving, I’ve been treating Australia like one
whole traumatic experience. It’s been over one year and I’m rather proud of
myself for being able to continue treating it like one whole traumatic
experience! Actually, simply “speaking in English” makes me feel like I’m going
to get an upset stomach… really!
Earlier I said I felt so freeeeeee, but after starting
school I really did feel restricted and bounded – well, that was because of all
the [school] work piling in. But well…
I can easily conclude that it was a lot better than the “chains”
in Australia. Yeaaah! XP (okay, sorry, I really do feel really idiotic, but…)
I can do so many things that I can’t in Australia – like,
like… watching all the anime I can because we have unlimited Internet!!! ....…it’s
the littlest things in life that matters, right? XD Hahahahahahaha.
But really, unlimited Internet really made my wooorrrlldddd.
Having to pay the Internet myself while on a prepaid plan was just… yeah……..
how many dollars did you think I lost per week simply to Internet??? TT___TT
…that wasn’t Australia’s fault, of course. But still. It
was part of the lifestyle I lead so “they’re all in it together”!!
School-wise, the lack of basic knowledge in some subjects had me on
edge, but I was lucky that my friends – even though they actually learnt it and
I didn’t – didn't really know it either (they just forgot). So I guess we’re almost on the same
page… almost.
I guess my lack of calculation skills did hurt quite a
bit, since it brought me problems with not only the subject of Maths itself,
but also Physics and Chemistry. But it tolerable, seeing that my grades ended up being 11th in my year and 5th in my class. Surprisingly... and I thought I was going to fail!! +{}+
I’ve always regarded myself as a Thai person, and I do
get offended when people tell me how “Australianised” I am… the idea is that I
no longer want to do anything with that country? Hahaha…
I'm in school holidays at the moment, so I had some free time. Holidays here put me in such a good moooood. ---Holidays in Australia never does!! It had always been the busiest times!

I have so many books I want to reeaaadd, but having all these books available is already a great joy! Books in Australia are so expensive...
I came just for the sake of coming, by the way. A little sad when it's been left alone for so long, you know...

Lastly, I'm going to give you all a book recommendation. Steal Like an Artist by Austin Kleon. To be honest, it was only after I read this book that I decided to come blog a little.
This book actually made my tears appear a little, because it made me feel that all I've been doing for the past 4 years on my hobbies really haven't gone to any waste.
Ja na,
