Assalamualaikum..
How's your life?..
Mine, nothing serious.
I found myself in a 'comfort zone' again.
How?
The environment just creating itself on it's own.
I thought that studying abroad will let me out of the comfort zone. That happened only for the past 3 years in here, at least. Now, it's coming back. That feeling.
I'm not blaming the sudden increased of students here, certainly not the students fault. But what's happening here is definitely the students fault. They became too comfy when surrounded by our own 'friends'.
I've read an article written by a Malaysian student in Egypt. It struck me really hard. He emphasized on the numbers of students. Particularly, Malaysian students. When we are in a small group, we are depending on each other. Take care of each other because we are Malaysians. We tend to have that motivational to study hard and in a group. What happen if there are lots of student?
We the Malaysians get that feeling of that 'comfort zone' when there are too many Malaysian in 1 place. I don't know how to explain this theory, but this is what I saw happening here.
The author mentioned about several things that happened in Egypt when there are lots of Malaysian students. Truancy is the major problem.
Truancy is also my problem. I did it. I need help. We need help. We need to stop this.
