end of life as we know it

I'll be taking the plane home in less than 9 hours from now.

It's been a great semester.

I guess it's true that we'll never be where we aren't supposed to be. I've learned so much about myself and about the people around me. And above all, i think i've caught an even closer glimpse of the God i love with all my heart and life.

I considered and pondered on the many things i have never pondered upon before. I learned to look at the hearts of others and who they really are at the core, rather than at what they do or what only meets the eyes.

I'm privileged to be with the most diversified groups of people (both in class and in CSS) possible; something i could not come to terms with earlier on. God has really shown me so much, time and again.

I ended this semester with a short trip to Kuantan with my classmates. We got back to kl today and i'm surprised to catch myself feeling a bit melancholic.

I didn't realise how far a journey we've come and how fast it could be coming to an end. This marks the end of an era as we know it and for all that's happened, i'm eternally grateful. For all the care i've received, the love i'm given, for the rougher and lonelier roads, for all the bad things even. I'm still learning to fix my weaknesses, still learning to be a better person but i indeed have a good story to tell.

The road ahead is still a long and uncertain one. Sometimes we lose sight of one another, sometimes we lose sight of ourselves and sometimes we lose sight of the important things in life.

But here's love and cheers to you all whom i've come to love. Both back at home and here.

"i see my reflection in the snow-covered hill."

Really, home is where the heart is.. and well, i'm coming home.
