I'm blogging again, the 2nd time of the day. I should be feeling happy and bubbly that I'm gonna say byebye to MTI!!! But...I'm feeling too sleepy! What a sluggish Monday! No one on MSN to talk to..no peishan or ros..so tired. My eyelids are heavy..closing ...closing..closing very soon...I need some candies!!

I'm gonna call Yifan tonight..I must..

Chau Ying showed me a photo of her friend's stitches & wound. She and another girl were being attacked by a racist guy in Brisbane at night while they were walking on the street. Omg..racism...this incident freaked me out a little but nevertheless, I hope it won't happen to my friends and me. We should all be just extra careful and not wander off at night in the streets. Sometimes we probably just take it for granted as our homeland is safe and racism is never that bad. It's really another life out there in the big unknown. We are going to experience for the 1st time, independency and something else we might never thought we will, that is patriotism. Haha. That's something which I do noticed among my friends who went overseas for studies or work.

Anyway today is my official last day in MTI even though I still have another halfday in the morning tomorrow. Finally!! Away from those freak users!! The team gave me a farewell card which I haven't read yet and an ANG POW!! wow!!! My 1st ang pow of the year! I peeped into it and I saw 2 $50 note..heh heh!! *smiling in glee*

Nice morning ain't it? Managed to resolve a major issue among my pals and I hope it will stay resolved! Well, I'm now starting to see light and look forward to a good start in Brisbane next month.

I had a new colleague this week and she's the one supposed to replace me. Coincidentally, she just return from Brisbane and graduated from QUT! Wow! She gave me lotsa 1st hand tips which are very useful! Talking to her makes me feel excited about my studies there!

Right! I'm gonna go back to work. Darn! So many things for me to do...

The only motivation from work is to look forward to weekends and public holidays.

This weekend was great. Had BBQ with MinTat and gang, haven't seen them for many months and most of them still looked the same as b4! and that's good! Jhon's still the same old erm...nerd but with a little more decorations to himself! Wendy's looking still as pretty but with a little tired look...Chin Sing and Jing are definitely looking radiant and happy! Tingli looks great with long straight hair!

Mega glad that Daniel is here to help me fix up my computer. Haha I owe him a couple of $9.50! Gee...I know I shouldn't be buying those deadly sticks for him but I hope he will find the determination to quit it soon.

We went Sheng Siong at Serangoon North. I thought it is pretty near to Hougang Point but boy I was wrong. We alight from 325 at Hougang Point and realised we gotta walk a fair bit before we couldn't reach the supermarket. Man! And boy the sun was scorching!!! Gee!! We bought some "kao lak"..hmm roasted chestnuts I meant! Haha I love "kao lak", especially when it comes without shells or someone is there to unshell for me! =P Also bought jelly and some fruits! The mini pears from australia's not bad! Quite cute looking though! Afterwards, we gotta take a cab back as the sun was hitting on us badly and there is no bus back to my place from there.

I watched "The Incredibles" a second time today with Daniel! Felt a little sleep but still had a good laugh over the story!

Well...MSN is having some connectivity problems..Gee..Ok lah..gotta go ..it's kinda late..cya bloggie...

After 3 days of trying, haha I finally got his blog url right!! Heh! Heh! He must be darn surprised! haha! =P

Bad bad baddie...hmph! Tell me your blog url!!!! =P

Today's UQ briefing is boring. Things that they said I have already done and knew by now. Haha nonetheless it's good to know there are so many people I know going too.

Btw, Cally's ex looked kinda different man!! seems to look erm... older. alright shan't comment so much. Moo is going UQ too! but too bad he's on another campus at Ipswitch. Not sure where it is, but sure sounds far. but still cool!! Also met ben's 2 friends...the world is kinda small man! One of them turn out to be someone both Jiayi and Daniel knew! cool man! on the other hand, I'm glad I see no Darren!!! I hope he's not going to UQ. If he is, I hope I won't be so lucky to meet him!! -_-

House...things seem to see more light now!!! now that we all have almost the same perspective. I certainly start to see hope in housing issues!! Yeah!! =D

The day to leave is drawing nearer and nearer......

Hi blog, I'm finally back from the world of lost souls, battling against dragons and tigeresses. But hey! I'm glad I'm still alive!! =) Life is after all, considered sweet!

Time's catching up very quickly and it's already 2005! And in 2 weeks' time, I'll be off to OZ...Mind is now in jitters and in the state of facing 4 blank walls, not knowing what to do and how to do. Last 2 weeks was weird, I would just tear for no good reason at times. It could be stress that I was experiencing. In actual fact I do not know how does being stress felt like.

I hadn't had time to plan or prepare for the trip. Yesterday when I finally found the time to write a list of things to buy and to bring there. Felt so good after that! Furthermore after Ros told me about what she found out during her QUT briefing with Hui & Kuah, it kinda perk me up a little. I'm starting to feel a little bit excited over the trip, moreover I have Yifan there to turn to whenever I need help! These things got me up and going!

Houses, Housemates...It will be my 1st experience staying with friends. I really do hope I will not irritate anyone of them as it's gonna be a long long period of time. Not everyone can tahan me so well like my parents and my brother. I really do hope everything goes well. House searching, group decision making etc...I guess I shouldn't be harping on my regrets but to live and work on it. On the other hand, I'm almost freak out by my friends from UQ and those who have been to Brisbane before on the security there. It kinda affect me and my decisions, especially I'm such a careless person. It made me seem so fickle-minded and indecisive as well.

Expenses. My cousin made me realised my allowance per month might not be enough if my house rental takes up half of it, leaving me with around $10/day to survive. Ah well..guess I gotta scrimp and survive on grass and trees. Afterall they have plenty there. Ah well..gotta do some serious budgetting. Hopefully we will be lucky to find one cheap and good house. If luckier, hopefully an apartment.

Anyway! I shall end here...I'm kinda tired and bored with the proj..hell lotta changes by those people. I'm gonna rot now till 6pm! Gonna have pre-departure briefing by the school later!! I'm sure I'll get hyped up by then to leave for OZ in 2 weeks' time!!
