Wah... it's been a week in adelaide.. Ah bu called me on thurs after her dance... Then she kept telling me that she is going to Movie world. Haiz... I told her that her university is in mountains. She just say it is like genting. Haha..

Well... I had been trying to read up my driving theory book. Oh my god, the questions seemed so hard. I am never good at MCQ. Anyway, I hope to pass my test by next week. I had to return the book to Veron.

Haiz.. I went to Cafe to find my boss, regarding my working schedule on Wednesday. Guess what? I heard another gossip. I was so sad. Too tired to feel angry anymore. V was back stabbing me, saying that I snatched her bf. I was like ("-.-). My god... I was attached at that time. Imagine if I was single. I think she might say I went to bed with her bf. Enough of that. I really think I need a break from all this.

I went to University and saw all my textbooks. They were so expensive. I think the total might add up to A$ 350. RM1 cost around 188. Development Psy cost around 90. Personality would cost another 112. Anyone would be kind enough to help me buy textbooks? Send it over to me. Haha...

Lastly, Ms Lu... Not that I didnt want to wave to you guys. I was like crying like fountain. If I wave to you guys, I think the whole airport would be flooded. Anyway, I will take care of Agnes. No worries, mate!

On 18th Feb 2006, I finally decided to continue my studies in Adelaide. I am now staying in a student hotsel. I hope to move out soon. The expenses are quite high. Rental (including meals) is around $220 per week. Of course there's other costs such as internet, washing and transport. The food is normal... But I guess I can cook better than them.

Although the place is almost to the hills, it is 6 bus stops away(2 km away). Uncle David ask me to walk to school. I am like ("*_*)... The other students are quite alright. My "senior" stay beside me. She is studying Honours in Magrill. Hm... if I have any questions, can ask her... Haha

Derrick pick me up from the airport and drive me to Veron's place to pick my stuff up. Tommorrow would be a busy day. I need to settle my enrolment.

Wonder how's Ah bu? I hope she can get used to the weather soon. Better dont fall sick. Ah bu, we must work hard. Cant hug together and cry.. Too embarrassing ... :) Lastly, must be strong and never give up.

Today I went to jurong point for dinner and movies with Shiwei. Actually I wanted to go home and rest. I had been working non stop for like weeks. I guess the earliest that I knocked off was 9pm?

Anyway, back to my "date" with Mr Chua. We had our dinner at the best part of jurong point. Food court! Haha... It had the shortest queue. Anyway, we are not couple. Where ever would be fine for us.

The movie? I not stupid too

Finally I watch the movie that I had been waiting for. It's really a very nice show. It reflect alot of my life. Maybe in years to come, we would be facing the same problem as them.

Last sat, we celebrated our motherless days. My dearest Ah bu will be leaving Singapore for Australia. Though we would be leaving on the same day, our return date is different...

I am at the crossroad again. I remember a year ago, I was asking the same question. Should I stay or leave? I guess not alot of people understand the pressure I am facing. People may scold me for giving extra pressure on myself. At times, I really feel like crying and giving up. Especially after my grandpa's death and my dad's illness. I was never a good student.

My application is back. I still need to study another 14 moudules. Even my uncle ask me to go back and study. But who will take care of my dad? I still have 3 more days. Ha Ha... I really dont know what to do.

I went to holland Village for dinner and drinks with Lynn today.We were like hopping betwwen the few places. I guess in total we went to 4 places.

Firstly, we planned to have dinner at tango. However, the menu looked so much like Brewerkz. Oh no, I guess we were having post brewerkz illness. Hence, we wanted to leave. Due to the "face" factor, we had a drink and fries.

Then we went on to sushi tei to have our main course. Hm... I miss sushi. And you know what? We were too full to have anything else. Hence, we only had hand roll, ramen and a few sushi.

After that, we planned to go home. However, as we passed by Eski bar, we have the urge to have a look inside. Thinking it would only be a few minutes, we went to have a drink that taste like cough syrup. Oh my god. I didnt even finish half. Ronwena, there's 2 part of the bar. Once I went in, Lynn was complaining of cold. Then we asked the waiter if there's other seats? You know what the "other" place was even colder. Once I opened the door, I told Lynn to go for the outside seat. However, they provide jacket. But I didnt wear. Haha...

Finally, we head off home.

Tomorrow will be Amanda's birthday. I understand that she is feeling very down. No one bother to reply her and she was the one who plan her own birthday. But I think I will not go for the dinner. I dont wish to face the fake friends that I have. Ling, I guess it is till the day you learn to appreciate your friends, or I will never go out as a group again. It is totally meaningless. I CAN LIVE VERY WELL WITHOUT YOU. If you believe that you are the only one who is busy with your work and studies, if you cant show concern and understanding for other people, I believe you are no longer worth keeping.

Gong Xi Gong Xi!!

It's dog's year! All my dear friends please be careful. The predictations for this year is not good for us. Let's have a look at what I had done for the past few days.

Chu 1
I woke up at 11 am, just to realise that none of my family members were up. Haiz... Then I continue to my beloved Ah gong's place (I still prefer to call it my Ah gong's place though he's no longer with me) to visit my uncle and ah ma. The whole house seemed to be a little quiet. My beloved Ah gong's room was empty. You know what? There's no sight of melon seeds. Every year, my beloved ah gong would prepared 1 whole bottle of melon seeds for me. No one doted on me anymore. *Sob*Sob* My cousins went on to have dinner at my place. Chris and Weifeng. Haiz... This 2 always quarrel. But their relationship is stronger than anyone else. Why? It is because they only have the 2 of them. My uncle is too busy for them.

At night, I welcomed the arrival of my youngest uncle(my mother's side) and his relatives. In total, there's 5 of them. My uncle, his wife, his wife's 2 sister in law and his wife's brother.

Chu 2
I never really went anywhere because I woke up at 2pm. Yes, 2 pm. My dearest uncle and I had a chat till 6 am that morning. Oh my god.. Really had a lot to chat about. I guess in their eyes, I am a never grow up child. They never fail to be entertain my actions and words. I guess at times it is always good. However, in this way, no one would ever treat you seriously anymore.

" We are going to the zoo zoo zoo... "
I brought my uncle and gang to the zoo. Sy, finally I know how the elephants mate!!! Ha ha... We watched the animal show. Oh my god... the sea lions are so clever. The zookeepers must had fed them with Gain milk powder! My dear uncle was complaining of being tired. Hence, halfway, we went to Orchard to shop around. But you know what my dear uncle said?

" No matter what, we are not able to shop the whole orchard. Why not we head off to the night safari?"

Then off we headed back to the zoo. We only sat on the tram ride. Oh my god. please dont waste your money on night safari. It is so dark . You only can wah here and there. The reason is they dont allow flashlights. Haiz....

Today, I was a earlybird. I went with my dad for his appointment. Then I send my uncle off to the airport. Although the trip was a short trip, I really appreciate his effort. He kept telling me that he would go with my family to Australia for my graduation!! Haha... I really hope there would be this day!

This is a new year. I have no time for my new year wish. Next time ba. Lastly, all the best for the Doggy year!
