To Future Ktt-ians and India bound students

I've read few future ktt-ians' blogs and some of them got India.

And from what I've read, most of them are not satisfied with the results. Yea, going to india, 3rd world country, hot, unhygienic and blablabla.

Well, I have to admit that I used to be in that situation too when I first got my JPA letter but let's just cut the crap man. If you think you can't handle it, just leave it and don't ever think of taking the offer because it's gonna give you hell (Try All American Rejects, Give You Hell)

Because I believe that once you put your mind into negative thoughts and never had the intention to look on a bright side about it, then, it's gonna eat you inside. Why do you want to accept it if you don't like it? You're gonna waste your time and energy. So, you might as well reject it and go take whichever course that your heart desires.

Let me tell you guys something. If Marco Polo didn't take the risk to cross the ocean, just because people in that time believed that he'd get drowned in the ocean, he wouldn't have known that the earth is sphere and there're asian continents.

India, judging by its name, it doesn't sound that appealing right? Just like people in the Europe, whenever we say Malaysia, they still think we live on trees! So, it's the same thing.

India has a lot to offer. It is a beautiful country. For those shopaholics, don't worry, your bestfriends, MNG, Levi's and etc etc will be there waiting for you (Yes. They have MNG in Bangalore).

In terms of education, do you have any idea that by your 2nd year, you will already start
doing your practical?? It's a bonus you know that? Because in UK/Ireland, you will only start your practical in your final year and plus India gives a lot of exposure to different kinds of diseases too :)

I understand that it is your right to feel that way since a lot of us, Malaysians are not well-exposed about it and we tend to be sceptical when we don't really know about something and therefore, the negative perceptions. You know why? Because we feel insecure. We're afraid of the unknown. We're afraid to be out of our comfort zone and that's why we whine, we complain, we simply pass judgements and so on.

So my advise here would be, try to look on the bright side. Consider yourself lucky. I know, cliche, be grateful of what you have blablabla. But I would say, be adventurous, be a risk taker. If that place sucks, then make it fun. Paint the town red man. Because if you're a boring, whiny, liveless person, even if you got UK pun, you won't feel the joy either. This is reality man. You have to learn from the hard way to succeed. If you can't handle this, how are you supposed to handle your life in future? There's never an easy way out.

I hope this is helpful enough for you guys.
