Remember.......

It's been almost six weeks since i arrived in Sydney. I must say during these six weeks i have my up and down moments. The last time, i said i needed to follow the young generation with their ways and their thinking, and to keep my opinion to myself. Well, needless to say, this is easier said than done. I guess an old lady like me is simply too set in her ways, and just too difficult to change...thus, i often ended up in heated exchanges. I suppose this is what people call the 'generation gap'.
Here are some of the things i need to remember....firstly to keep your thoughts and ways of doing things to yourself. The younger people have their ways of doing things in their own home. You can only have your own opinion and your own ways of doing things when your are in your own home. So, i need to remember this. Secondly, clear up any mess immediately...remember you're not in your own home and you cannot take your time clearing up. So, please remember this too. These few weeks made me realized that when one is getting old, the reflexes are getting slower and even the memory is playing havoc. Things simply got misplaced. Luckily, i still remember how to catch the train home after a day out in the city.
The weather is also not predictable....often rains and too cold for my liking. I guess i just can't wait to go home to Teluk Intan. As the saying goes...there's no place like home.
