I saw egrets through the windshield of the plane I came to Sabah on. They were the first birds I saw.
I came with my mom, God bless her. We arranged for a hotel to stay at for the next few days with the help of dad's friend who lives here.
What was my feelings then? Excitement was most of it. I was about to start real life. Working life. I'll be so far away from where I'm used to and I'll get used to here from now on, hopefully.
Met a friendly cab driver whom soon became our personal driver (at a cost of course). He was responsible for taking us around later and while we searched for a more permanent place to stay. I arrived a day earlier while Nadhir and Jazmi came in next day. I was ready to live alone but at the same time I am glad to have familiar faces.
Kota Kinabalu Sabah was my choice. My only choice. I hoped that I won't regret it. I can't turn back now.
My mother did not say it but I knew she needed me here. To start my own life and able to support my family later on. I know she is hopeful. That's the whole reason why she came all the way here with me.
