as for now...

The initial excitement for u.s. has waned off... i'm missing malaysian food (healthy food), my friends, my good old family, my car, cheaper hp rates, manglish. *sigh*

I met a couple of friends and some really friendly church people. There's an international student ministry over in my uni consisting of navigators and a few local churches. They offer free lunches, pinics, free furnitures, outings. Neat. I almost cried when i stepped into a church on Wednesday. It reminds me of home, or maybe it's a place where people care for you, or maybe just being in church itself is nostalgic.

Meanwhile, please pray for accomodations for me. I have not found any so far. The houses nearby the campus have all been fully booked. Penn state took in more students than the town could cope. It's crazy. There's a lady from Navigators who allowed me to bunk in for a few weeks. Glad am I that God decided not to leave me out on the streets. :p But it's 6 miles away though !! the buses only come 4 times in the day. No service on weekends.

Overwhelmed but filled with grace.

Goodnight.

Malaysia, I miss you...
