people says a picture could tell a thousand words. but now, i believe that pictures, too, do keeps track of hidden memories.

when some believe that by looking at a picture, we can tell how the person in the pictures is feeling at that time. i, on the other hand

believe that a picture too do represents the photographer's feling and the atmosphere at that time. that's why,

when i was going through my folders in the computer, tears keeps folling down whenever i saw the picture of my family. not only because

i was looking at the faces of my true loves who are, literally, a thousand miles away, but also because i could remember their smiles, laughs,

the atmosphere when the picture was taken. oh how i miss their laughter.

the day when my family sent me the airport, just could not cry. it's not because i was eager to be away from the bosom of my family. but rather

because i just can't. i'm not used to crying in the presence of people. not even my family saw me ccry that day. only a few times did i shed some tears.

but now, after three days and around 5 thousand miles later in the presence of a family photo, that i shed the uncried tears of days before, during and

after my departure from malaysia. now i'm having a headache that will last for a couple of days which is fine with me since tomorrow is saturday. thank Allah

for that. now that i had done my crying, i hope that i could pull my self together and get on with my life here. after all, i cant just hop on the next plane

and fly back to malaysia. i'm bearing a lot of people's hope to be a better person and a great teacher.

now's my calling to be strong mentally and physically here on the land of Down Under.
