Jesmine Kuan UNPAD Dentistry

It was my first time being away from Malaysia, away from family, away from friend and away from my bed and being independent in my studies and taking care of myself. It was a hard time saying goodbye in the airport but we all make it through after all the hugs and tears.

After landed in Indonesia, it felt like Malaysia. The weather, the people, the food, the shops, the houses and everything, it felt like Malaysia, but the feeling is not the same. Something was missing, it was family. I got through those feelings and told myself that I am here to study and to learn. Lucky for us, we came here with a bunch of friends. Once we arrive in our university, I was amaze with the size of it, it was huge and it is full of green. We went straight to our dorm once we arrive, but we all dentistry student was disappointed because we all thought that we were supposed to stay in bale with the medical student but we ended up in some dorm out of the campus.

After we had register, we gave our luggage to be taken to our dorm and we had to walk. It was one bad constructed road. Okay, lets imagine you walking in “ kampung” road with more rocks, that is how the road is. We arrive to our dorm and it didn’t look that bad but we all know bale was way much better. After getting all ready it was dark, we were new so the only place we know was bale’s café. It was 7 plus and it was normal dinner time for Malaysian, we reach the café and guess what? The food was all sold out. We were all starving for food, went over to the bale mart to get ourselves some mee in the cup. We sat outside the café eating our maggi, laughing and talking. It was cold at night, it felt like Malaysia when it is raining. Every night the weather is this cold, it was nice. After that we went back to the room and hang out.
