I am going to Shanghai!


I still can't believe it until now. It is like a dream to me when out of the blue my Dad offered me a chance to study Mandarin to Shanghai. It's been my dream since few years back actually, but I never thought it will become reality in a short period. I am so happy, so for this last two months in KL before going there, I will make use of this time for my preparation. Today, I spent more than RM 200 just to buy Oxford dictionary (Chinese-English, English-Chinese), Shanghai City Guide (Lonely Planet) and a package of mandarin phrasebook complete with the CD (Lonely Planet) for my practice.

The things I would like to achieve during 1 year in Shanghai :
1. Speak, write and listen Mandarin fluently
2. Be more matured and independent
3. Be more socialize and make new friends
4. Get boyfriend (if GOD allows). Hehehe

This trip is also part of my new year resolution. This year, I want to be a different person, better of course. I don't want to think too much and get stressed. I will just relax, enjoy my life, and plan my future. Moreover, I also want to be more flexible and get out of my comfort zone to take the challenge in front of me. The trip to Shanghai is the best step for me to get out of my comfort zone since I will be all alone there, not knowing how to converse properly and have no idea about living there.

But I believe, it is also part of GOD's plan for me. If GOD sets this plan for me and he wants me to do it, I will do it. I felt nervous and scared at the beginning. I felt not confident of my ability. Luckily GOD shows me the way and I am sure I will go there and I won't be alone. Coz he will be with me all the time, guide me and protect me. Hopefully I can pass this year and make use of this year successfully.
