Dear Brother left for Beida


It was definitely an emotional day as I see my brother off at Changi Airport. Living together for the past 21 years and suddenly I wouldn't be able to see him almost every week - I mean physically. It'd definitely take time before I get used to that idea.

The sendoff at Changi Airport is quite amazing, around 30+ came to Changi Airport to send him off. I wonder if I were to be the one flying off, would I get such a attendance? It's definitely a though to ponder upon - how well have I treated my friends.

Oh well, the scholarship opportunity is definitely a great chance for him to explore what life has to offer to him, through difficulties will people grow more resilient against the harsh conditions of life. I didn't have that chance to go UK to further my studies, but definitely, I would want my brother to have the experience of studying overseas.

This new phase of life of his life has also motivated me to perform better - just imagine : my brother is a scholar. For the past 3 years, I've been getting by of Uni life, not really contributing in whatsoever ways and acting more like a leech. It's time to pick up my pace to complete the course and go on with what life has to offer. It's gonna be tough given that I haven't really given my full focus on it, but that also mean that I could utilise what potential I have in me to the max.

Well, time to work on it.
