Omg how long has it been since my latest update?! 5 months, woah...
The first I'd like to say is that I am currently living in Nepal, I moved here about a month ago on 24 December last year. Yeah, it is already 2015! Okay, so this country that I am currently living is where my ancestors and 99.9% of whole family tree has been born and raised in. That 0.01% includes my me and a few of my uncles and a little niece.(I love her so much)
Well, since being born and brought up in another country many many miles away from home, I have always been curious about the country that my parents were born and brought up in. They told me that I was lucky as I had the creature comfort and even education is luxury since they failed to receive.
Haha I was told that my mom was really fierce type of girl while she grow up, it was kinda sad that she had to get married by the age of 14, stopped education and serve her mother-in-law who is my grandmother. My grandfather from dad's side, passed away about 2 years after dad got into laure, from a cancer i guess. I don't really like talking with dad about it since it must be sad for him, like I would not want to lose my dad when I am like what? 23 years old was it? My grandfather was a Hong Kong laure they call it here which was established before the uk ko laure emerged. Some of my uncles were born and raised in hk but came back to Nepal, village after baje retired. My grandmother from dad's side is still alive until now, I think she is in her late 80s. She is such a sweetheart but kinda selfish haha. Let me tell you a little about my family's background. My grandmother is actually the 2nd wife of my grandfather and both the 1st and 2nd wife are real blood sisters. Wow, I would never want to do that to my sister or want my sister to marry my husband.
Okay so life in Nepal is kinda boring but I do get to go out sometimes.
Well, for the next few years I will be staying in Nepal and I really want to live like a local with commotion of micro, people shouting in the public transport like it's their property, having no toilet around the city and waiting until I get home to relief myself. Experiencing the cold winter and sitting in the sun. Haha did I say it in a bad manner? You know electricity and water supply here are considered as luxury! Damn, it should be basic like 24 hour supply but then again, I cannot do anything really. I will have to say that Nepal has taught me a lot. I have to wash my own clothes! I have to be more careful about my skin since the weather is different here. You have to apply lots of cream and lotions like vaseline. Ohmy, if i don't apply once within 3 days, my skin will start peeling! Just how bad is that?! I would really recommend the Vaseline petroleum jelly, it works like magic! ;)
I will be starting college soon in June. I am actually having mixed feelings since the people here are so different, the way they speak, their gestures, everything is different. Everyone is speaking Nepali all the time. I do find it weird but it's a good kind of weird. What I did not like the most about walking along the streets is that people just bang against you and they don't even say sorry oh please, they should at least have a basic antic. Well, I am not saying all but maybe about 90% of them are disrespectful. Since I have learnt well from a young age, I find myself saying sorry. I will have to say that they don't deserve my "Sorry" at all. It disgust me somehow but then again, this country is trying to improve. The goal is there but the body...nothing is planned and it just gets tougher day by day.
I can't proudly say that Nepal is progressing, another day goes by and nothing is done for the betterment of the country. I believe that I am not fully aware but I am a citizen of this country and I have the right to judge and point out the facts to where this country is heading.
