My Journey

OK.. I've decided that its time to review my journey throughout these 18 years. I was born in SJ medical center in Subang Jaya. Due to some unforeseen circumstances..My parents decided to migrate to Australia. I stayed there for almost 5-6 years. A lot has happened in those 6 years. The first show that I actually looked forward to was none other than Sesame street. Used to watch it every morning till I had to go to elementary school. The first ever school that I went to was the Christian community church of Grandville in Sydney. Learned my abc's and numbers there. I even learned to write short stories there. Imagine that.. Being 4-5 years old and being able to write short stories.. That's impressive.. But my writhing skills are pretty bad right now. Made a lot of friends and I even had my first crush. Lolz.. I remember the times where my whole family used to visit the community swimming pool.. We walked there of course.. And my sisters always plucked red and blueberries from the trees on the way. Well I remember how my father used to swim in his short pants and doing the frog style. It was hilarious! lolz.. I even got my fear of water from that swimming pool which I had eventually conquered. I'm just gonna say that I drowned.. The last thing I remembered was drinking a lot of chlorinated water. Later on..I woke up in my apartment..Mainly because of the strong spicy smell of curry chicken which my mother was cooking back at the apartment where I was staying. I used to go to the fish market in Sydney every weekend and slurp down oysters which was absolutely fresh. And the rest are history..
My whole family flew back to Malaysia when I was about 6-7 years old. And we eventually picked up on life from that point on. I was enrolled into a Malay primary school which I still have very fond memories of until now. It was the SS19 primary school. My first class in school was absolutely dreadful. The Malay teachers couldn;t understand a thing I said as my English was full of the typical Australian slang. On the second day of school.. I ran back home during class... My parents was totally shocked and sent me back to school at once. Imagine a 7year old crossing main roads..Whoa..A scary thought..but i survived!
OK..I'm gonna stop for now.. gonna continue later on..
