在这里都差不多八年了,但最近才真正领悟到家人的重要
是自己长大开窍了,还是 postgrad student 需要的 moral support 远比前几年多,还是跟朋友越来越疏远了,还是纯粹因为在外这么多年累积起来的
爸妈会时时刻刻都想到你,他们可以随时听你,永远把你的事放在心上
也只有对他们,在你需要帮助时毫不客气地要求

一直以来是打算毕业后再工作个几年,‘玩’够了、甘愿了、失望了,才去新加坡找份工,离家较近
最最近有两股冲动想一毕业就干脆去新加坡好了
对现在的生活太失望了,
对自己能否在另一个国外找到工没信心了

还有一年多,我会撑得住的!

when i'm stressed,

eg while preparing for exams, i'll loose weight, coz i don't snack and only eat when i really have to.

eg while experiments in the lab dont go as planned, i loose appetite, and only eat when i really have to
muesli with milk for breakfast at 8am, a breadtop bun + small pear lasted me the whole day after and then a 100g Ritter Sport chocolate for dinner. went to bed at 10pm on a wednesday night.
had a microwavable frozen hokkien noodles for breakfast on the next day 7am, McNuggets meal at 3pm.
luckily the day ended with a dinner of nice sushi's and nice icecream for dessert.

found another aim for my life:
to bring my parents around to travel. anywhere. just anywhere in this world.
it's a happy feeling when they visit new places, experience new stuff. that makes me happy. i really want them to see the world. as much as they can.

few days ago i asked mum if she and dad want to go hk or tw when i go back for holiday in march. and this is what she replied, on msn:
'ok, can lah. got u take us , want!'
i only saw that when i got home and turn on my msn.
while at work, i got an sms saying (direct quote)
'we want 2 go 2 hong kong!'
i think they (or at least my mum is) are excited abt it :)

_______________

the feeling of
'psychologically ready to leave where i am now to start a new life/career in another country'
is actually scary >.<
but i'm still optimistic about canada

OCD

hmmm.... what are the symptoms of Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD)?

i realised that i can't help but arranging things on the shelves in the supermarket when they're not in order. that includes straighting up clothes and small boxed items on the rack.
but after trying on clothes in the fitting room, i'm fine giving back the shirt and the clothes hanger separately.
i even think that, being annoyed when people always running late without a good reason falls in the same category. because so many of my friends are doing that until i question myself for being punctual! :S what kind of theory is that?!?!
and perhaps i can also include the fact that i'm not very good in handling last minute changes of plans.

are they all related to OCD??? or i'm just a control freak.

...

当妳知道他有新女友的时候,会替他高兴,
就表示妳不再在乎他了。
但是,怎么还会有一种 想哭但是哭不去来 的感觉?

13 of them in melbourne,
3 are friends whom i'll ask to go out with spontaneously,

looks like i need more friends in melb,
not enough friends whom i can get along with.

sometimes we complain about our friends 无事不登三宝殿,
friends who don't usually contact or hang out with you, not close to you, when they need your help, they'll come to you. sounds like these friends are not sincere.
but think about this, if they don't come to you when they know you might be able to help, does this make you think they don't see you as friends? i'm sure if you know they don't usually hang out with you, they'll know the same too. so if they still come to you in such situation, it either means, their 'skin is thick' or, they know you're a nice friend.
well well, not that i'm finding excuse from these friens, i'm trying to make myself less 'dislike' them ba. pathetic.

---------

i feel that, the more you konw about something, the pros and cons, the more you're picky about it.
to me, if i want to get something, especially if it's not something cheap, i'll want to get a good descent one eventhough it'll cost more. if i can't afford the good one, i rather not have it.
should i apply this philosophy of mine when getting presents for others? hmmm...

Because i'm too organised, because i'm efficient
i'm bored now :S
she usually speaks very softly. until sometimes i can't be bothered to clarify things

she usually speaks bit louder. she's usually very energetic and enthu therefore the volume tends to be higher most of the time until sometime i'm annoyed

i'm difficult to please huh

一边看着朋友 po 在 facebook 的 Vancouver 和 London 的照片,觉得这两个地方应该还不难适应吧;一边听着也跟着唱梁静茹的歌,想到我如果真的毕业后可以去这其中一个地方工作,我一定会想念那在 Melbourne 和朋友唱k 的日子。
突然觉得很舍不得

我会‘看不起’that Nokia, because i assume Nokia is trying to 'learn' from BB.

hmm... not going to that ski trip in mid aug anymore
and i actually feel relieved that i made the decision
eventhough i already gave up a trip to Sydney for S.H.E's concert
and if i am going to the snow, i have to give up 林宥嘉's concert as well as the dates clash
and i'll probably have to refrain myself from suggesting any karaoke outings with my friends

i'm still holding on the decision of not going to syd for the concert,
but i can go to 林宥嘉's concert, and another musical (the King and I) which was suggested and decided very last minute :)

there have been a few times where i felt relieved that i didn't end up buying some stuff. i think more frequent than when i regretted for not buying the stuff.

__________

"物以类聚,人以群分"
that is actually quite true, from the fact that
all of my close friends like to watch musicals, just like i do :)
at first i thought, hmm... perhaps it's not difficult to love musicals, but then i know quite a few ppl who has no interest in them.
but in terms of food preferences, we can be quite different

hmm... i missed out another friend's wedding

see, i missed out my cousins' weddings, my friends' wedding,

then i will miss out the birth of my cousin's baby,
what else have I or will I miss out?!?! :(

26 June 8.37pm

Went to the (Brisbane) city with my parents yday. Took them to watch 3D ToyStory 3. Not worth going for 3D for this movie but they haven’t watched 3D movie in the cinema before, so we had to choose between toystory3 and shrek4. ToyStory fits our timing better. It’s always nice to bring parents to something new to them, try new food, see new places, especially when they’re happy or fascinated or excited about it, i’m happy. At MovieWorld that day, mum drove me for the first time ever, eventhough it was in a bumper car, i sat beside her in the same ‘car’, dad was in another car himself. She had fun, eventhough i would love to have my own bumper car, but i’ve played bumper car before elsewhere, i’ve drove a real car, sitting next to mum in the same ‘car’ was actually fun :)

And guess what, I bumped into my friend in the city yesterday! What a small world!!

How would you feel when you know your parents are wrong?? Not only you don’t agree with them, but they are actually being un-reasonable. Sigh... I know they should discuss things properly with them, i’m sure dad can think through and accept different opinion as long as they’re reasonable. But this time, i’m afraid to be the ‘middle person’. I am so helpless... argh. I think it’s a miscommunication; or rather it’s a lack of communication. I didn’t sleep well last night because of this. Tomorrow is the day, hope everything is fine!

So tired from driving today. Up north to around sunshine coast, abt 1.5 hours drive from Brisbane. First to Eumundi market, then the ginger factory, macadamia factory, lastly the pineapple theme park (pretty much means pineapple farm). The feeling of tiredness while driving is so scary!! When we were on our way back, i felt really sleepy to the extent of: i know my eyes will just close once i don’t concentrate hard. And now, i would say that, i hate driving. Haha!!

Feel so sien when ppl don’t want to ‘participate’ during holiday outings. When u’re on a holiday, you should enjoy as much as you can! Since you’re already there, might as well make full use of your presence, eg join the $12 guided tour for a 40mins ginger factory tour+tasting!! Just ‘boh lat’. :S

*yawn* 8.58pm Zzz...



30 June

‘Where can I see the koalas?’
‘At the zoo lor.’
‘Do I need to pay for the zoo?’
‘Yes’
‘then don’t want lor.’
‘-_-’
Might as well just stay at home right?! Didn’t even ask me how much to pay, but ‘pay money’ is the keyword. :S

By the way, everything was fine on Sunday. I didn’t witness the whole ‘process’, but as long as it ended fine. *phew*

I think my dark circles got improved during this holiday. If it really does, i think the way that works for me is to sleep early, early as in before 11pm. Doesnt matter how much tv i watch during the day until the moment before i sleep, and the same 8 hours sleep as i usually do in a normal day.



4 July

Back in action!

Airplanes do look like birds :)

And you know what, my JetStar flight got delayed (instead of my outgoing TigerAir flight). Yday morning, got an SMS from jetstar about the 1hr delay to 750pm. Not a bad service huh. And my check-in bag came out first on the carousel.
2 weeks ago, it was the last few and i saw my bag being transported onto the plane last. So that make sense, last in, first out from the plane, but last on the carousel. Not sure how yday’s work tho. I checked in quite early for the new departure time, but very late for the original dep time. And the girl who was a few ppl in front of me in the check-in queue had her bag on the carousel right after me. Actually, i guess it can still be logical if she’s the last person to check in for the flight and i’m the last. Haha. And in order for that to happen, that means most of the other passengers didn’t know about the delay before hand?

O well... not very important.

Better go slp now... i have 6 eps of kangxi and 2 eps of PS man to catch up on tomorrow. haha
