Evon & Zyan

for the rest of the photos...

Last Wed and Thurs, both of them were back to Melbourne and Gippsland for their graduation ceremony on Saturday. Drove all the way down to fetch jie and her family back to gippsland. After moving all her household and stuff, we had dinner at Qbah. Sat after the ceremony, went to iimis cafe for lunch with, zyan, his family and thomas, then at night went to his ex-house for dinner, yummy dinner done by his mum. Mon night went to Clayton house for dinner with Jie, Darren, Clayton, Vijay and Fizah. Wed after my class, drove Jie around, returned her rented car, then cancelled her mobile no., went from friend's houses to houses, then we went for dinner in Morwell and after dinner went to Clayton house to chill out and hang around...Had alot of great time with Zyan and with Evon.

Finally Thurs morning jie got to leave, went back to Morwell and sent her off as they had called a taxi to airport. After that suddenly feel quite depressed, seems like all of my best friends had left again and I am alone here. Evon is not only my special friend, but she is also my sister who take care of me, so was abit not used to have her around "nagging" at me. She always told me that she able to share her thoughts with me, so am I. Although going back to Singapore soon and will surely meet her again, but I guess this is her last time back to Melbourne, Gippsland. Sometimes friends do place a very important position in my heart, this kind of friend is hard to find, thank God for her, for friendship, for knowing her...

Photo projects









Yup, took more photos for my Macro photo project. Besides that the first two photos I am going to submit it for photography club photo competition. For those who frequently check my blog will know that the second photo has already been posted few week ago, now this one is just another outcome of using different style to present it and I really like the retro feeling, the first photo also looks very retro-kind.

More reports and 1 last assignment to submit before the end of semester, need to apply for Honours and Pre-master at the same time, gonna be busy with alot of other stuff, but one at a time, don't really want to stress myself too much on these stuff. Exam is coming soon, first paper 24th, then 26 and last paper on 31st Oct...

NIKE WAREHOUSE 40% off STOREWIDE!

Nike warehouse located at Smith street Melbourne, today I went there with Jamie's friends (suddenly feel so old, cos all of them are younger than both of us =_+) But before that I went to Clayton Campus for the first time in my life, huge big campus. Went to Law faculty with Jamie (cos she studying Law) to Law Library (yes they have their Law Library, all about Law, Mr.Law, Ms.Law, Mrs.Law, Dr.Law, Prof.Law and Ah LAw etc..), then went for lunch, and picked up her friends and Shelvin in city, then all of us head down to Nike warehouse 40% storewide sale. Yes, it was only sale for yesterday, not today sorry...Once we arrived, we need to queue up to enter the store +_+ The store was a huge mess, hangers, clothes, rubbish alots on the floor, people stepped on clothes etc. Shoes all lying around, boxes all on the floor (like ppl stock up for war like that). Bought a black long sleeves shirt, super cheap. It cost $30, then 40% off..do the maths, its only $18!!! Like buying normal clothes from market, but this is branded and its Nike! There are many more other things that were super cheap, saw a $20 bag, 40% off its only $12! Nike bag! Shoes $80, 40% its only $48!!! AMAZING SALE!

Holiday

Yea, finally submitted my MBB suffering assignment, and another report submitted. Yesterday drove down, with Jeannie, sent her to her bf place then off I went to cut my hair, now its really kinda short, but well, i believe when i go home, it should quite long again. Went to have dinner with Amy and Dustin (with Jamie), havent seen them for almost half a year, miss them. They recently just got a very very cute dog, only 2 months old, like a small little devil. (Photos will be uploaded soon). Stayed in Jamie place last night, and gonna be here till tomorrow, then will be having lunch with Ashley, Shelvin (who are they? look at my past post) and Jamie. Then wil head back to Gippsland for my usual meeting... DotA Lan gathering.

Current listening: Joe Satriani- An Anthology, Planet Shakers- Evermore

Holidays

yea, this week is holiday week, sort of can enjoy, but also cannot enjoy at the same time, because having reports and assignment due after holidays is not kind of fun at all. Wed will be going down to city, get my hair cut, then fix my air ticket back to singapore, going to meet up Shelvin (zyan's sis), Ashley (Stacey's sis) and Jamie, will be staying at Jamie place. Zyan, Stacey and I are the best friends (of course with other as well), now they have already left and their siblings are here studying in Melbourne. Sounds like I am the one still remain on this land and making friends with their siblings, indeed the feeling is quite funny and interesting. Like I am the Big brother taking care of them, not really taking care of, just that I hardly can see them because of staying in Gippsland...Want to get things really done, but feeling so lazy and slacking due to last week "SUPER LAB BLOCK" nearly want to "faint", but still survived after all. At the mean time, missing someone so dearly to me is not so much of fun and joy, sometimes frustration and disapppointment do come along, all I can do is put all my trust into the Lord and let Him take the steering wheel of my Life, for His will is far greater their our will and our own understanding, for He is God and He can do unbelievable things through His abundant blessings on me.

Block Lab aka Residential Lab

So what is this block lab all about? Is where you go to lab for 5 days in a row, everyday start work from 9am, and finish at 6pm or so...Monday we started 10am and finished at...8:15pm, =_= then yesterday slightly better, started at 9am and finished at 5:30pm. What about today? Well, started 9am and finished at 7:30pm, came back cook some noodles, and still need to do assignment. Super tired these few days, it like worse than working, non-stop working in the lab, at least working, sometimes still can take a break, but when we are in the Lab, we don't even know what is break or toilet break...It sounds quite terrible, however tomorrow is the 4th day, 2nd last day of this crazy block lab thingy. Once this is over, does not mean that I can relax though next week is holidays, because I still need to finish up my assignment and 1 of my reports and need to catch up some study + reading. Gonna sleep soon, tired and not enough sleep...

Overwhelming

Still overwhelming by the result of churchill idol. Indeed we were quite shocked too, but truly Eliz and I believe that all these blessing are from the Lord, although we didn't get the 1st place, but at least we did our best, at least we won the fame and make all of asian friends proud, too.

The below are some of the photos which i have taken for one of my photographic unit's project. Its taken by using my digital camera, with the table lamp shinning 45degrees towards my camera, thats the reason you see you heads on the $20 note (B&W). Give some comments please.

We won!

Not that we won the 1st place for churchill idol, but I and Elizabeth got in 3rd place for churchill idol last night! Yay~~~!! So happy, hahaha. At least we won for all our asian friends and especially malaysians, because we sang a malay song- belaian jiwa. Elizabeth, thank you for all the hard time for practising and share a wonderful and fantastic night with me! We rocks!

Churchill idol

Tonight is churchill idol final, Elizabeth and I got into the competition and now is the final round...See who is the real idol tonight...Bothof us are singing Malay song- Belaian Jiwa, i am playing guitar and Eliz is playing keyboard.

Cross

Yeah, finally my church latest album is released, recived it from my sister and no douubt it's an awesome album, with all spirited filled worship songs.



On the other hand, found out that the latest Hillsong live worship is out too, this time is called "God He reigns", still remember the last album "For all you've done was released last year around the same time as this year. Must get the Hillsong album as soon as when i go down to city, hahahha.

Gospel idol?

What is it all about?
http://www.allamericangospel.com

SO WHAT IS NANO?
Please don't drool all over the place...

Yes, it is i-pod nano, comes in black or white and colour screen (finally), 2Gb or 4Gb, , up to 1K songs and 25K photos, as THIN as a PENCIL, selling $199 in U.S...Therefore I suggest those who are saving money to get mini i-pod or i-pod, probably you all can start to change target now...

photos

























Photos are being taken during the July winter break, while i was in Singapore and Malaysia.

Z, S, S, C


Stacey & purple tulips

Stacey & my moomoo(bought by her)

Piggy & moomoo can climb tree?

Stacey & me

Left to right (Stacey, Robert, Samantha, Me, Leonard & Ray)

Samantha & me

Stacey, me & Zyan

Piggy & Moomoo are best friends...T_T

What is Z, S, S and C?...They are Zyan, Stacey, Samantha, Christopher. They are my ever best close Uni friends, I also have other close friends whom have already left gippsland (Richmond, Evon, Melanie, Sue Anne, Pui Fong). Leaving some other behind (Jamie, Shelvin {zyan sis} Thomas etc...) So gonna to miss the 4 of them...

Thursday was the graduation photo taking day (yes..again..) The fourth time seeing my friends graduating, 1st batch- Melanie, Sue Anne; 2nd batch- Sarah, Pui fong; 3rd batch- Richmond, Evon, yanchyuan{soon} and now the 4 of them (stacey, samantha, zyan and chris).

Knew Chris since 1st semester, together we are in SHINE and church, serving the Lord faithfully and fervently, music team in church & SHINE, buddy musicians he plays the guitar and piano, i plays the drum and guitar, while we sing and praise and worship the Lord together.

Samantha, knew her 1st semester by the mistake of "Easter egg event" While Siti thought that those eggs were given by her, because i put my name as Sam, while ppl also call Samantha as Sam sometimes, so got a mistake by Siti. Had alot of conversations and jokes throughout these years. Same ISA committe, worked together for 2 semesters. We are the X-japn fans!

Zyan, ever best brother, knew him since 1st semester, being brothers for 2.5 years (Richmond is zyan's and my brother, too) DJ buddy with weiwei, stacey, Lynette, Sarah, Yanchyuan and myself. Same ISA committe, worked together for 2 semester. Super ultimate laughter with alot of craps and jokes to come about. Easy to share your thoughts to, admired by his music talent in singing and composing songs, fashions as well. Used to call him ducky by Sue...=op Someone who encourage me and support me whenever I feel down and sad, brother u are the best.

Stacey, this girl (piggy) is so sweet and wonderful. Knew her since 1st semester, in Louis Lexus, sitting right beside her at the back seats, at first just hi and bye, then joined ISA together with samantha and myself, also a DJ buddy throughout the years. She likes pig alot, just as I like moomoo, we are the farm animals, piggy and moomoo. Buddy for shopping, watching movie, swim, road trip, coffee section etc. Also another one who support me and encourage me whenever I feel sad and down. Who is so super kind to always borrow her car (Echo) to me before I get my car, I will never forget your kind heartedness. Always give me chance for me to practice driving, till other say that I am one of her car's owner as well...

Probably might not be able to find other friends that can cling so well together with me, the bonds that we have. People in the world are gettingn more and more selfish, self-centred, arrogant, furious, taking advantages of others etc. Probably working life is hard to make friends. I realsie that Uni friends have much significant impact on part of our life. Friends that will grow together with you, support one another.

All those friends mention above are all my best buddies, all are hard to find, but its time for them to soar and just started their new page in their book of life. It's always hard to say good bye and see them leave one by one, but friends will just be part of our life, may all of us will treasure the moments that we had, the jokes and the fun, the not so good time let us forget it, but remember the good times being togther. The bonds that we had might not be the same, but hoping that we will always keep in touch through ups and downs, I will always come back and visit you all whenever I can, that's my promise.


In the end, all gonna leave one by one and I am alone and being left behind...[by the way, jamie supposed to be in the photo as well..sorry jamie..=o(]

No more Pepseq

That's it, no more pepseq, already 3 fellows asked me this pepseq programme from time to time, really can drive you nuts. Although I have done this pepseq programme in 4 hours, doesn't mean I am the expert and doesn't mean that you can always try to ask me endless time. First person still alright, asked the first time then second time, then third time, still cannot get those sequences..Second person, asked for first time, then second time. Last person, asked me the first time and I don"t feel like answering anymore. Can you imagine people asked you those repeated questions over and over again. What is AMPA? How do we know which belongs to which after fragmentation? What is COAL and COAC? Must we use both together? How long should we use for those test? What are the amount to use for those tests? Which tests should we use for fragmentation? I got all the amino acids, but the programme said I named them incorrectly, why is that so?..blah blah blah..Oh man..really drives me nuts, that's enough, even when I sleep, i also can tell you what is AMPM, DBSL, COAC, COAL, CPAB and CPPA...if wanna ask me pepseq, read lab manual first and read the programme instuctions before you try to ask me, or else I will just tell you the same thing. Probably I should record everything about pepseq on the phone, so that next time another person ask me again, I will just play the recorder and ask them to follow the phone instruction..."Press 1 for English; Pu tong hua qing an er(2); kwong dong wa qing on salm(3); Alien languages please press 4+5+6; For question about AMPM, CPAB, CPPA, COAC and COAL please press 1; For how long and how much to use for each test, pls press 2; Which fragmentation method to use, please press 3....someone save me... It's getting really irritating and annoying. Darn...

Update

Havent been update for ages, those who always come to my site, sorry to disappoint u all, was feeling lazy to update blog, probably busy with work and so many other things got to do.. Just to update abit, finally got myself my very first car, Honda Civic Gli hatchback 1.5L, manual and white colour...sound like selling my car now..haha..Thanks to my dad to allow me to get a car, with car, things are much more easier and recently the previous car that I drove, the ownder suddenly came back =_=...but thank God that I got my car one week before he came back, if not alot of things will be in a mess...

Went to play paintball yesterday, had alot of fun. we rotated drivers for the whole trip, still I handle the city area, because we used my car to go and obvious I know my car well and can handle city area roads. 5hours there and back...stopped by in city for dinner and bought some stuff for steamboat. Everyone (jovi, yanchyuan myself) very tired.

Same again, missing bel...and really get to serious about PR thingy, currently there is one temporary visa need 110, and eventually will get the PR, but condition is have to work and stay in reginal area, well I dun mind stay in regional area, haven been staying in gippy for close to 2.5 years..Pray that God will grant me an honour degree, then things will be much easier...God is always good to me. Amen..

Culture night

Culture night was quite and good, just that the food abit "low class". My performance was good i guess, people cheered and yelled for me, and then when i sing Leo Ku- Love and Sincere, everyone clapped and follow the beat of the song, which made me feel that I am the "superstar"..haha Second song, I sang Coldplay- Scientist and I dedicated this song to all my fellow coursemates, hope that all of us will be famous and successful scientists some day. Others special things were: Jamie did come down and attended the culture night and sitting the same table with us, how nice and good to see her again, after such a long time, then the next day we went to Qu Bah for lunch with her. Secondly, Samantha won a 34cm TV during the lucky draw, I guess it is the second grand prize of the whole event, except the Tasmania trip which sponsored by Tourism of Tasmania.

Last night went for the first session of beginner phototaking session and learned things about photography and camera. ACtually I do know something about how to use camera etc, because my Dad is a photography, too. However after last night first lesson (2hours) I learnt more things about photography and phototaking skills, there will be 2 more sessions in the next coming weeks on every Tues. Also because of that, I am going to join the photography club and relaly try to learn how to take god photos without using the dump digital camera. Of that, next semester most likely I am going to take one unit call photomedia imaging, which is a course will learn all the things about photography and learn how to ues darkroom etc. Which I need to do a project, folio and journals etc, and best of it- NO EXAM..so that I really can focus and try my best to do well in my other 3 units in next semester.

Your Brain is 66.67% Female, 33.33% Male

Your brain leans female You think with your heart, not your head Sweet and considerate, you are a giver But you're tough enough not to let anyone take advantage of you!

What Gender Is Your Brain?

What?...my brain is nearly 67% female and 33.3% male?..so am I male or Female..?..I guess I am just the one who always try to put myself in female's shoes...especially Gf's shoes...
