MOVING IN (again!)

FINALLY!

Got myself settled in for Semester 2 in UiTM Lendu! SO EXCITED. I got Tun Puteri for my college this semester (instead of the beautiful, gorgeous Tun Hasan). To be honest, I don't mind staying here!

I settled in yesterday at around 11am. Registered myself at Dewan Syahbandar. Me, being oblivious, I decided to wear a t-shirt, cardigan, jeans and a pair f ballet flats.

Me: So register at Syahbandar, right?
Tyna: Do we have to wear baju kurung?
Sab: Yup, Syahbandar. idk man I'm wearing palazo for the sake of PB xD
Me: I'm wearing jeans....
Sab: HAAHAH ok idk whether jeans is acceptable... Good luck with that!

Obviously, good citizen Nurin, I decided to change in the car into my baju kurung. YES. IN THE CAR. I could feel people staring into my mom's Exora. The car is tinted, yea, but only the back. The front is FOR DISPLAY. It's like saying "Look! In the car! There's a girl changing her clothes!!" ... Thinking about it again. there's really not much to see. Hm. I grabbed the necessary (aka file, matrix card, I/C, slips...), mama and I went to Dewan Syahbandar IN THE RAIN. Thank God for the spidey umbrella. There were PB's there and WOO THANK GOD I CHANGED! I went to the Tun Puteri counter and surprised to find that WEYHEY same roommates! Crazy things are about to go down. 

We got ourselves to Tun Puteri in the RAINN. Mama was with me all the way heh. Bringing luggage up and down four flights of stairs. Oh dear. Slowly, but surely, all things got moved upstairs and the next thing you know, the rain stops ha. Sab was already in the room so we started clearing up the place. She brought a vacuum and, as expected, we made a huge ruckus! Laughing, cleaning, complaining. In the end, everything looked messy but clean. Thing is, the room has lots of holes. Yes, cement holes. Not hollow though. Lots of sand and stones were coming off each time we sweeped it. Our moms decided that its best we get a mat-like thing to cover the floor.

Soon after, we brought our butts to a well deserved lunch! I don't remember how far Tesco Cheng was from Lendu. I remembered it as a shorter distance, but the directions we got were really far. I could tell that Mama was super tired but she kept going the extra mile. *my mom is the sweetest I swear* We started talking about how spoiled I am (because I am!) and how things were gonna turn up this semester. When we finally reached, we had a meal at the Medan Selera in Teco Cheng (since Secret Recipe was always our destination). We both got the Nasi Goreng Thai and boy was it spicy. 

Long story short.

We got our things, got a duplicate key, drove all the way back to Alor Gajah to get the mat and a baldi, and then back to Lendu.

I was kinda sad, thinking about how I'm gonna leave Mama at home with the sibs and my dad. I know it's a hard time for her, but well. I wish I could do more, but studies seem to be taking over me. I refused to listen to sad songs throughout the journey. I'm talking about you, One Direction!  I hugged Mama one last time and the next thing I knew, I was on my own.

Sab and me cleared a little more, settled in and waited for Tyna who was taking ages to arrive. But, soon enough, we were REUNITED! THS201 is now TPT1403! I sure am lucky to have them as my roommates. I love them like my own children, and they have learnt to call me Mommy. Which I find to be very very amusing. We're gonna make a lot of noise and I wouldn't be surprised at all if the neighbors start complaining. As long as I have my mates, I'm gonna be having a great semester. ;)
