Exam

Exam, exam...my first paper is on Thurs, then next Mon, Tues and Thurs. Prepared most of my subjects already, except that organic chemistry. Just hope that exam will be finishing soon, then will be going home, holidays and hanging out with friends. However, I still have to study for one of my summer unit during this Summer period (Nov- Feb). Heard that the unit is very easy, so I think should be alright. Though after exam will be holidays, of course i am hoping that will come to reality sooner, but after exam my jiejie Evon will be leaving gippsland and most likely going back to Singapore for good, so sad...(*_*) She cares and shows concern just as I am her brother. For me, I listen to what she shares to me, her deepest thoughts and her sadness, also her happiness since her most frightening "nightmare" had happened. Dreams have been shattered away, heart has been broken into thousands of pieces. I have learnt alot from the things that she shared and chatted with me,which cannot be learnt from our textbooks and lectures. The pitty thing is that we only got to know each other much better towards the end of this semester. Sometimes I dun mind if we have only limited time to make a few closer friends, but at least I have done my best to know Evon as my close friends; rather than having too many "Hi bye" friends. Jie, here I wish you all the best in your exam, may the future be yours and able to find your soulmate in your life soon...

My ideal drum set, but I prefer few more tom-tom. When will I have a double bass drum set?? T_T

Engagement

hmm...not that i am getting engage, but i got alittle speechless and shock when I get to know one friend of mine has already engaged in Malaysia. He is one year younger than me, hmm to me, alittle early to get engaged right? -_- Well, engagement will come, but not now for me, the time is not right yet, however when the time is right, certain thing should fall into correct place. On Friday, there was a hail storm in Churchill (for those who dun know wat is hail, hail is like ice cubes pouring from sky). Was quite shocking to see ice falling from sky, like ice kajang...Lucky the size of the ice is not like soccer ball, just like a 5 cents size of Aussie coin. Today is the day whereby I am stepping down from my PR position in ISA, handing over to another new person. I have already been in this position, this team for 1.5 year, is time to move on. However I will still be helping them around, cos i can be the advisor for the new committee just like Richmond...Next year, I gonna be the President of SHINE (the christian group in Gippy Uni).

Care Bear

	Friend Bear You are everyone's ideal friend because you are sincere and genuinely kind. Sometimes you worry about your friends' problems so much, you forget about your own responsibilities, which can get you into trouble. For you, it's the little things that really count. You also happen to be the main driver of the Cloud Car. No speeding!
Take the Which Care Bear Are You? Quiz!

Hmm..the result is same as my jie Sue leh..hehehe

My friend- Vivien

For those who still remember who is Vivien Yeo
(The winner of Miss Malaysia Chinese International Pageant 2003), finally i got to contact with her one fine day through the MSN. Kind of happy to know that she is doing fine, and currently away from Malaysia and working in Hong Kong for long term basis. She also picked Cantonese (which I got shocked- tats fast!!!). Now she is actively working for TVB in HK, casting in one of the HK latest serial TV show and getting to film her first commerical advertisement on some skin whitening product...All the best to her! Hope to see her some time in HK soon when I go back to HK. Those who are interested, can go to her personal website
to visit and take a look.^_^

On Friday my good friend- Sarah who finally return to Gippsland for her graduation, had dinner with whole group of friends (Richie, zyan, Max, Thomas, PP, Stacey, me, Dustin & Amy) together with her parents. Her parents are easy going and quite funny at times. Saturday was her graudation, had been driving around them after lunch, thanks Stacey for her car! ^_^ At night went over to my Jiejie Evon's new house for potluck dinner. Had chat with some other friends. Jiejie thanks for all your present, Love that!

The Prayer

Oh I am speechless after I have watched the Aussue idol Finalist- Anthony Callea sang "The Prayer" by Celine Dion and Andrea Bocelli. His voice is so powerful and strong. He has the classy look, he has the gifts from God. Those who are interested can download the clips over here
. Seriously he really sang very well, and even the judge Mark Holden has to use a new tocuh down concept- the Grand Royale Touchdown...So, without any surprise, Daniel is out; simply because both of them were singing in the same opera style, but Anthony had shown us perfectly well of what Daniel wanted to show, but he failed to do that. Anyway, going to have a presentation tomorrow, assignment still on the way, most of piling work had been "cleared away".

Productive holidays

So since i came back to Gippsland on Tues night, today is Sunday and I spent 4 days to finish 6 reports and 1 assignment. Pretty satisfy with my progress so far. Have one more 1500 assignment, one comp report and one presntation on Wed i think...Tomorrow is week 11, 3 more weeks before exam. Hopfully i can finish all reports and assignments by the end of week 12, so that i can have time to study for my exam. I guess I have the gift of doing things fast, "chopchop"...however there can be some disadvantage, too; like being careless, impatient etc. At least this "chopchop" gift still "working" quite well in my studies and my life.

Continue driving

Went down to city on Saturday, 1st follow the big whole group of people to Tulip farm then Chadstone shopping centre. This year the Tulips are so much more beautiful and nicer compare to last year. I drove from the Tulip farm to Chadstone shopping centre, ha~ did another reverse parking. Then from Chadstone we head down to City and yes i drove from there to city, driving around the city to look for parkin, did few hook turns... Evon, her mum and Clayton were in the car too. After we arrived we had dinner together, Evon and her mum stayed in Victoria Hotel, while i stayed at my friend's place just nearby. the next day, did a hair cut at Soho, more of like the same, style but abit messy look by using Clay, front and top slightly shorter. Spend some time with Raj on Monday afternoon, my ex apartment mate when i was in Sunway, we are serious good friends. Spend some time with Evon and her mum, we had dinner on Monday at the vietnamese restaurant, those waitors and waitress are using palm to write the order from customers and send them to the kitchen, it's so cool. Get to hang around with Evon and her mum in the past few days, had some serious good chat with her and glad to know another friend better, good buddy girl! On Tuesday, my friend Clayton drove the car to the place called Clayton, then we had Malaysian food for our early dinner. After that i drove all the way back from Clayton to Churchill. On the way back, it was raining quite heavily, the highway were filled with cars, and the car was foggy from the inside, so i have to wind down the window in order to see the cars behind and change lane. Everything went well and at least i gained more experiences from different traffic conditions.

I can drive!!!

Yeah!!! Finally i passed my driving test on Thurs morning, i am so happy..hehe =oD Friday was ISA Annual General Meeting and Election for next year committee, I am not staying on any position in ISA, is time to step down and let the new blood keep ISA running and to be better and better. This AGM is the ever best since I am in the committee, i had 70+ people voted and came for our BBQ dinner, performances and together with some mooncakes. Most likely I am going to be the president of SHINE...Friday drove myself to the fish and chips shop to collect some chips back for the dinner. Today, I was driving Stacey's car (manual) nearly the whole day, thanks for her kindness to borrow her car to me.=o) Drove to supermarket and bought some meat for BBQ at pastor's house in the afernoon. Did a reverse parking when i reached the supermarket, quite satisfy the outcome. Need to practice more and get better driving skills. Then went to clean Stacey's car, vacuum inside, clean from inside to outside. Drove to Pastor's house for BBQ and then at night drove back to Stacey's house to pick her up and pick up Denise, both of them to Traralgon Safeway for some grocery, then to Hungry Jack. After that I drove back to Churchill. Driving the whole day, have gain some experiences on the road and is good to learn more.

Churchill Idol

Last Wed was the first ever organize Churchill idol, alot of people came, some felt quite good, some felt totally piece of crap. Well, i admit that it is quite a failure, alot of things didnt really organize well, specially the PA person, wondering who went to hire them and did the lousiest job ever. The background music and the guitars are louder than the vocal...i mean idioit also know what's wrong..seriously dun understand wat are they thinking at all. Becaus of that, my performance was not good, too. Sorry to those who went over and support me, but alot of things just happened unexpectedly. May be i am really a losuy judge, but i have already given my best shot and i have no regret about it. People dun like the judges, i guess they are just giving so much expectation on this event and thinking this event is gonna be very splendid, greatest ever event in the world history like that, if u dun like it, i am sorry, i cant do much about it...I mean is Churchill idol..not Aus idol or America idol man...why expecting so much...Seriously i was trying so hard to squeeze my brain of what to think and comments on that night, how hard can that be, anybody can put themselves in my shoes and my situation if u were me? We are just students, we are not professional singers or producers..if i am, why am i still studying and not go into EMI, SONY or those big records companies and start to earn my very first cents...

Shocked

Yesterday was what a bad news day for me...First failed my driving test for the very first time, then a couple- both of my good friends broke up so suddenly that i am in shocked...I am trembling. Thank God for Bel, her love for me, His love for us, and our love for Him. Things are stable at this moment, however i still need to strive my best in this relationship. No matter how hard it is, i will still make it through thousands of storms, in the end what we will see is rainbow. This is the third times which i have encountered friends get attached and broke up just like that. Love seems so fragile sometimes, we want to love more, but yet feeling not loving enough. However human nature tend to like to recieve rather than giving.

Driving test

Why the traffic light had to change to red when i reached that intersection...just because i stopped over the pedestrian line on the road and they failed me...so unfair...basically i was about to turn right, it was green all the way, then it changed to yellow then red before i can cross over. Therefore i stopped, and stopped over the line, and i thought i have to stop, because it was yellow light...so i failed because of that kind of situation. Feeling so unfair...not that i cant drive, but is that bloody traffic lights...At least now i know that i can go at yellow light if i am not safe to stop...23rd September...gonna challenge Vic Road again...

Churchill Idol weeks

Last night i was one of the judges in Churchill idol, had the audition. Out of 22 performances, we had chosen 11 of them to enter the final on next Wed in churchill saloon pub. Entry is going to be free. Kind of abit shocked about some performances, which i dare to say, some of them are really crap. However I did not really critise them much, because since they had put in their efforts, whether it was god or bad, at least they did give a try. Finally had decided to go to US with my family, because I also miss my cousins, have not seen her for a very long time. Also, i have already decided to move to off campus due to the unreasonable increase fees for on campus accomodation next year. Have ben thinking alot about my future, getting PR etc...if those things are not going as what i expected, what are the alternative ways or what i can called "emergency route" which could be taken. Seriously I don't really want to separate from Bel again after my Honours or my graduation. I just hope that i can stay with her...

Decisions

Next Monday, one test one assignmen, Driving comp test next Tues, Wed another assignment and Fri my real driving test, getting my driving license soon...Many decisions have to be made by myself. Whether staying on campus or off campus, going U.S or Malaysia or go home, when to book my air ticket to go back etc...Stay off campus definitely is cheaper compare to the so expensive on campus accomodation. Unlimited internet, can use internet phone to communicate with my parents and friends. However one major problem is transportation, unless get a car- in fact, a friend is selling a very old car at a very cheap prize...On campus, more convenient, but i am sick of on campus, it can be very disturbing and noisy in the west houses. If i move to south houses, south houses are quiet, but again much more expensive compare to those West houses -_-. At this moment, Richmond is deciding whether to do or not to do his Honours. If yanchyuan and yeneyen are moving out, i have to find friends to stay with me, or else has to bear the cost of the rental for that house. Moreover i am planning to further my studies and do my Honours in Melbourne, let say in Clayton campus, and i am planning to get my PR after my Honours degree (1 year) and i have already got those agencies contact for applying PR...Daddy mummy, if you all read this, hope you all can understand my siuation at this moment, not saying that i seem cant be bother, but i need more time for all these decisions to be made.

Bel, Happy 3rd year Anniversary!



One year passed by
And things were so good I had to ask myself "Why,"
I was so elated about us being together;
Laughing caring crying sharing
Knowing the future will be our forever.

Two years soon krept upon us
And to have you in my life became a must.
I found myself falling madly and deeply in love
Dreaming, Talking, Thinking, Praising
Realizing that you are indeed my blessing from God above.

Now we have come to year number three
And my future with you, I clearly see
I will forever love you with all of my heart
Vowing, Praying, growing, preparing
Knowing the day will come when we vow "Till death do us part"

For the past three years pure joy is what you have given me
And these words are only the beginning to thanking thee.
I never in my life met anyone so beautiful and lovely,
Trusting, inspiring, loving, desiring
Realizing that loving you has been like one two three,
Honey, I would like to say once again, "Happy Anniversary!"

Love you forever!

Belinda

Went down to city on Friday morning after my driving lesson to see my girlfriend- Belinda. Just came back tonight around 9pm+. Tomorrow she is going to Adelaide with her family for her brother's graduation ceremony over there. Although we are not as close as last time, but that is for sure, because we have not seen each other for more than 6 months, definitely need some time to "heat up" our relationship again. Although the time that we met were short, but it is enough for me to carry on for the rest of this semester. I am looking forward to see her again in Malaysia at the end of this year. Really going to miss her alot...

Monash Multicultural Night 2004 + the cannot make it SRA Ball 2004












So here the story goes, after last night we went to the SRA ball, everyone of us think that the organizers do not know how to hold a proper function, the food, music and entertainments were really bad, the worst thing is that they did not even introduce themselves and welcome the students, all of them were just busy drinking and drinking and drinking...-_-

Last night 6 of us as the ISA team went to the Monash Multicultural night 2004 which was organized by the clayton campus people and their International student services. The function was held in the city, Carlton Crest Hotel, so all of us went down to the city for this special function. Although last night was so called "black Friday- the 13th of Augest", but seriously we had alot of fun last night- the food, the entertainments, lucky draws, games, the atmosphere, the environment etc, all were the best function i have ever attended. Also, our whole table won 10 free movie tickets for us to watch at any village cinemas, thanks to Richmond..hehee. Seriously, I am impressived by their organization skills and teamworks. All these photos are available at HERE

Here are some photos which taken from SRA ball on Thursday...
