Name: Jessica Janice Luhur
Age: 17
Country of origin: Indonesia
Programme: International Canadian Pre-University Programme
It was at first not Jessica's intention to study outside of Indonesia. When Jessica accompanied her brother to visit the education fair in Jakarta, she heard her father asking about the Pre-University Programmes for herself, although Jessica was at that time in the 11th grade.
The counsellor gave some brochures about colleges in Malaysia and as my brother had already picked Taylor’s College as his choice, it was then up to me to make my decision as where I should continue my further studies. My father suggested that I join my brother and study at Taylor’s.
Well, the rest is history. I finally arrived at the decision to join the crowd to be one of the students at Taylor’s and took the International Canadian Pre-University programme commonly called ‘ICPU’. This was not my first visit to Malaysia but the thought of having to live overseas gave me chills.
Once I was here, I didn’t feel like I was away from my home country. Malaysians generally are nice and hospitable people which made my adjustment very smooth. The environment is also not too different. The food is nearly the same and there are so many varieties to choose and so delicious. But when you get involved in a conversation with Malaysians then you realize that you are not in Indonesia. Although we speak the same language, the dialects and the intonation makes it far from the same. Nevertheless, I love being in Malaysia and proud to be a Taylorian. Having been here, I can assure that I have no regrets of leaving home and here in Malaysia I have made so many new friends and I feel like I am home.
