Got up really early this morning, don't know why I can't sleep anymore. Question to all my friends out there: Why do you like/dislike me as a friend?
I mean, there must be a reason to still wanna hang out/talk with me, right? And if you think otherwise, why?
I just wanna know, so start by being frank! :) And I promise no hard feelings will be taken.
Now now, don't walk away from this site...

Bright and sunny saturday
Had a really nice and eventful saturday, surrounded by friends. Feels like it has been a long time since I ever felt this way. Slept in this morning, woke up and went driving range with Jinn Ling. I think this is the longest 50 balls that I ever hit, coz we ended up spending 1.5 hours at the range, chatting more than hitting balls. Then, we went to St Kilda for lunch coz the place we wanted to go to at Balaclava was too packed, there was a waiting list of half an hour!! Oh well, better luck next time I hope. Also had gelati and we went to the beach side, did some people watching. LOL, checking out everyone, not just boys. I'm at the beach side again! Starting to like the fact that I'm in Melbourne and I can go to the beach side as often as I want without worrying about getting sweaty and the melting feeling. Was indeed a wonderful day out there...so relaxing!
Then after, also met up with Lia and Mark for Koko Black late in the arvo. So much chatting, gossiping today. The city is crowded with kids, people, and Xmas preparation. 5 weeks to Xmas, not that it means much to me but it's always nice to see the streets alive than not. This year's Xmas will be somewhat different, spending it with my best friends in Sydney. It's always nice hanging out with friends. Thought I'll be alone for dinner tonight coz I didn't have any plans, which I don't mind really, had been a long day. Was glad to receive a phone call from Shen to pull me out for dinner. We chatted a lot about our work stuffs, was a good venting session, definitely. I'm glad that I have an old friend in my work place, always someone to count on, seek advise from and someone that I can let out to :)
Weather does play a part in everyday's mood, doesn't it? Was so cloudy the last few days and my mood was too, but today, the sun was out and I just felt much better! Something funny that I notice too, that when times are hard and down, the weather tends to be the same too, just like the entire last week was gloomy and windy, cold..but now that everything has got better and happier, the sun is out again! :) Is there some correlation between my heart feelings with the weather? Something to investigate and observe...maybe you can tell me why.

Journey
Hmm...今天写blog的灵感很多。
When you fall and get hurt, don't sit and cry. Stand up and walk forward again, have your chin's up coz tomorrow's a better day!

爱到底是什么？
爱到底是什么？父爱，母爱，友爱，博爱，恋爱...不同的爱。爱有它一定的定义吗？
爱情是一种感觉，出发于心里的感觉。爱情可以理智的吗？爱情有公平的吗？爱情有说是不自私的吗？如果有人可以把爱情model成一个方程式，那我觉得他either成为世界上最富有的人，或是最愚蠢的人。因为我觉得爱情是没有一个固定的方程式。如果两个人相爱，而因为四周的人的反意不能在一起，是一件很可惜得事。当然，幸福的爱就希望得到四周的人的认同。Hmm...好像有点自我矛盾！爱情到底是两个人的事，还是不够的呢？还是要得到其他人的批同？
今天我觉得我有长了一智。我终于明白，领悟到，爱一个人，不一定要拥有他，霸占他，而是希望他过的好，过的幸福，过的快乐。我对我看爱情的perspective, 有点意外。从来没有想到我会有这样的领悟，想法。这几天里发生的事情，我从中得益不少。虽然是个很难忘的经验，很伤痛，可是我感觉到我有长大了。就当作是我生命中的一个小插曲。我没有后悔，没有责怪任何人，只因我知道，it's all part of life and experience, and life is a big learning process. 我对我的潇洒感到新奇。世界每一天在转动，马路上每一天都有车人来来往往，生活一样要走下去。不开心是一天，开心又是一天，何不开开心心的过每一天呢？
Life goes on... :-)

世界上最遥远的距离
世界上最遥远的距离
不是生与死
而是我站在你面前
你却不知道我爱你
世界上最遥远的距离
不是我就站在你面前
你却不知道我爱你
而是明明知道彼此相爱
而不能在一起
世界上最遥远的距离
不是明明知道彼此相爱
而不能在一起
而是明明无法抵挡这股想念
却还得故意装作丝毫没有把你
放在心里
世界上最遥远的距离
不是明明无法抵挡这股想念
却还得故意装作丝毫没有把你
放在心里
而是用自己冷漠的心
对爱你的人
掘了一道无法跨越的沟渠
不是生与死
而是我站在你面前
你却不知道我爱你
世界上最遥远的距离
不是我就站在你面前
你却不知道我爱你
而是明明知道彼此相爱
而不能在一起
世界上最遥远的距离
不是明明知道彼此相爱
而不能在一起
而是明明无法抵挡这股想念
却还得故意装作丝毫没有把你
放在心里
世界上最遥远的距离
不是明明无法抵挡这股想念
却还得故意装作丝毫没有把你
放在心里

家
“昨天是历史， 只愿回味一切。今天是份礼物，应该好好珍惜眼前。明天是希望， 分放追求梦想...“
前天早上，突然有灵感，写了这么一个用句。其实，很多时候，就是失去了，才会去回想为什么当时没好好珍惜。 就好像以前还在家的时候，往往都觉得父母亲唠叨很烦，忍不得很快就想出国深造。而现在，无时无刻都会有想家的念头。想念家里母亲煮的食物，想念父亲的提问，弟弟的挑剔，家里的小狗，还有中学的好朋友，每个星期六都会聚集一起去mamak档喝茶。 哎，说起来，真的好想立刻买机票，飞回家去一趟！
我又想家啦！

冬天
冬天终于到来了！ 比起往年，今年的冬天特别的寒冷。听说是很久以来（可能是4-5年）最冷的。可是，我从中找到不同的乐趣-吃gelati!! 我的theory, 冬天是最好的时候吃gelati, 因为gelati总不会溶掉，更可以prolong 吃gelati 的时间。这何成不是一种乐趣呢？！
在工作上，大多的时候都很顺利。偶尔有它‘下‘的时候，不过一切到此都还不错。跟同事的关系也渐渐的拉近，尤其是和tracey&andrew的距离，已慢慢的靠近了。这应该是一件值得高兴的事吧！我最近把tracey当了我的mentor,上个星期有过了我们第一次的mentor meeting, outcome 还不错！她给了我不同的指导和方向指点，促使我去往未来去想。我给自己涅定了3大目标：
1 ： 增进科技方面的知识
- 要完成3本书：refactoring(martin fowler), TTD by examples(kent beck) & Effective java(james bloch)
- 参与至少4个科技user group 活动 （i.e.design patterns, java)
2 ： 扩大我的社会圈子
- 搞至少两个 office drinking session
- 搞个project team 的活动
- 参与至少两个professional 的活动
3 ： 增进我consulting skills
- 读 Secrets in Consulting
- 从project team 那边吸取经验和feedback
暂时有3个goals, 限期是今年尾要达成这3个goals! 祝我好运！！ 还有，记得常常鼓励我哦！！

生病了
天气突然转变，本来五月是秋天，气候感觉上好像已经是冬天了。山上已经下了几百公分的雪。就是这天气的转变，我着凉了。病了几天，休息了两天，打算昨天就回到工作岗位。 回到公司，同事都呼唤我回家，可是我一点都不知道到底他们是不是在开玩笑。今天，我终于明白他们都不是在开玩笑的，还很认真！我到公司不到两个小时，就接到上司的来电，说我现在应该是在家休息，而不是在公司传染疾病给其他的同事。我当场讷了一把冷汗，原来事情是那么的严重，就连在老远的上司都收到风声。其实重点是害怕我的病会传染到他人，把其他的人都拖累了。我很了解其实我的上司的用意是好的，但是我还是被这回事，这电话敲得更醒了！这次的经验给了我两个可贵的教训。
第一，对于公司的同事都要小心对待，因为他们会在你不注意的时候，背板你，在上司面前说什么什么的。就算他们看起来有多好人，多 friendly, 都要有提访之心。虽然这次的发生，有它的理由，我也很了解，可是我觉得若这次的事可以宣传出去，那其他什么事都可能被传到上司那儿去。
第二，澳洲和大马的工作文化是完全不一样的。在马来西亚，上司不管你病的七彩八分，你都得上班去，完成手上的工作，完全不理会会不会把疾病传染给别人。可是在澳洲，若你病的七彩的话，就应该留在家里，而不是会公司去传染疾病。否则，会给别人说你不够明白事理。
今天，我终于得到了个珍贵的教训。不知道我应该觉得幸运还是倒霉好。或许我该往好的方面去想，不经一事，不长一智！

Back in Malaysia
Hmm..haven't been posting for some time again! Busy busy busy...excuses excuses excuses! :P
I'm now back in KL for 2 weeks holidays before returning to Melbourne to start work officially next Tuesday. The last 2 months went by so quickly. Got a job offer in Melbourne that sent me to Bangalore for 7 weeks training without much preparation. And then I took the option to take some leave to visit my families in KL before starting work. Didn't really have the time to sit back and have everything sink in. Until I'm back here, I have more alone time for myself to digest everything.
It feels great to be home again! There is no place like home! I arrived on the 31st march. Met up with Hui Mei(the superstar) on sat, lucky me! She looks great and I'm so happy for her and what she has achieved today. I think she will continue to be a super star in Malaysia. Also met up with my relatives, aunties, uncles...they were like "Oh, you finished your holiday in India ah? You had fun anot? Wah, so dark already" (all in Malaysian slang). And I was like...hmmm...when did I mention holidaying in India? I guess they can't see me working yet! Oh well, the truth is that I did have an excellent time in Bangalore, both working and travelling!
On Sunday, I went back to Ipoh (a town in another state in Malaysia) for 'cheng meng' (traditional chinese time for praying ancestors) my grandfather and then visited my grandma. She looked older now from the last time I saw her but still quite strong. She thought I was back for good! Then to learn that I'm only back for a short period and I have to return to Melbourne to work. She was like 'ah boy is also in O zhau, now you also staying in O zhau...' She probably think that we've turned guai lo and never wanna come back to Malaysia. Well, I had to tell her that the job prospects in melb is so much better than KL. And of course there were other reasons which I find it difficult to explain. Indeed, I feel that I've been given this goldren opportunity to work in TW, it's like a dream come true! How can I give up such a great job? Plus, Shaunie is there in Melbourne...another reason to stay on...plus my friends, my course mates...do I need a list of reasons to stay back?
After spending some time with her, I then continued my journey to Taiping (another small town in the same state as Ipoh) to visit Shaunie's parents, of course shaunie was around too! This was the 2nd time that both of us were back to Msia at the same time. It's quite rare. Taiping (translates to peacefulness) is much quieter than KL and it has changed alot too from the last visit in 2002. It was sooo sooo great to see Shaunie again and able to spend time with him after being apart for 7 weeks. We had so much to catch up for the next few days but it wasn't enough.
We then return to KL on Wednesday because they will be flying off to Taiwan for their own family vacation on Friday. So I didn't really have alot of time with Shaunie. Both of us went shopping on Thursday and met up with one of his old time friends for Genki Sushi! Yummington! She's a lovely girl.
On the day shaunie and his parents flew off to Taiwan, I actually decided to leave KL before they did. I bought myself a first class bus ticket to Singapore to visit my friend and do some shopping. I was excited being in a first class, equipped with massage chair and personal entertainment video. Too bad I was too tired and sleepy to enjoy it for the first few hours in the bus. I haven't had the chance to sleep in ever since I came back, mainly because I can't sleep early at night and I had to get up early in the morning. So I fell asleep in no time right after I boarded. So my journey to Singapore wasn't that great afterall. Arrived in Singapore 5 hours later, did some alone shopping at Bugis before meeting up with Wai Yee and Ze pin for dinner. OMG, the stuffs in Singapore are like super cheap! I couldn't resist and bought 3 pairs of shoes, a handbag and a necklace before I even met up with my friends. They were like shocked when they found out about my buys. Hehhe.. then they took me to this place 'Brewerks' at Clarke Quay *suppose to be the most happening places in Sg on a friday night* for dinner and beer. Brewerks has their own beer with flavours. Honestly, I'm not a big fan of beer, so it was just alright for me. But the food was awesome!! Spent the next day shopping again with Wai Yee and I couldn't believe it! I bought 2 more pairs of shoes! And a nice top from Zara! Too much shopping in 2 days! I will definitely make a note to transit Sg the next time I come back to Msia.
Back in KL on Sat night, went yum char with my dearest bro- king. Was super super tired by the time I got home at 3am! And I had to get up at 8.30am the next day to go dimsum with some astooers - Zp, Keh hann and Chong yi. Glad to have met Chongyi's new girlfriend - Li Wei. Had a short nice breaky catch up with these guys. And I continued with my schedule to have lunch with my aunties at OneUtama - Little vietnamese Kitchen! You must think I'm like a pig already! At least that's what Shaunie thinks! Not Fair!
The great thing happened when we started playing 3 kaki mahjong on Sunday night and it went on for Monday and Tuesday! I was losing so much everytime I started and I decided to swap seats to regain my fengshui. And I always ended up winning at least 8 bucks at the end. Although it's only RM8, but the feeling of winning from scratch was great! The game on Tuesday was exceptionally unforgettable when I lost everything in my purse that ZP had to trade Singapore dollars with me so that I can continue playing. At the end, I walked away with a green 50 dollar note! :P
Then another great event happened when I met up with Selina (lin lin) on Tuesday. That girl!! She can really make me shop!! We ended up having lunch, shopping, coffee and then shopping again! She made me spent so much on Zara, Lewre, Tangs and Elle. So I got myself a new jacket, 2 bags, 3 pants and a top. But I had such a super great time catching up with her and just seeing her made it great! On Wednesday, I managed to catch up with ex-muoss people for dinner. Keat Li came almost straightaway from the airport after her trip to Beijing, Huey Yee came after her french classes in Hartamas, Selina drove all the way from Cyberjaya to Mid valley and managed to arrive 1 hour earlier than everyone else...and Kelvin and Sue hooi who turned up 1 hour later than what they told me. I was so touched! even though it was just an hour plus dinner gathering. Too bad Michelle, yin see and Nurul couldn't make it!
It's thursday today, it means that my trip in Msia is coming to an end soon. Been spending most of my daytime this week with my mum. Will see Shaunie tomorrow evening when he comes back from Taiwan, yay! Dad's birthday is on sunday and we will be celebrating his birthday on Sat noon. Still not sure where we will be going for lunch. You know...my dad!
Time check: 1.09am...I'm still wide awake! That's what I meant by having sleeping problems at night. Will have to enjoy my day tomorrow and Sat to the max before I stuff all my buys into the 20kg limited luggage. Something tells me that I will have trouble getting through the custom. There are still alot of food that I haven't tasted like roti canai, roti planta, more chau kuey tieu, more har mee...hungry! Shaunie will not be going back to Melbourne with me at the same time, he'll be staying for another week. So I have to take care of myself when I get back to Melb. Already got myself well plan after I arrive Melb. Li Ping will be coming to pick me up from the airport and we will go for branch. Then I will be meeting up with my uni mates for dinner. Then on Monday, I will be joining Shu Chyn and Shu Min for lunch before meeting up Khoon Leng and Krishna for dinner.
It seems like I've got everything planned until the very last minute of my holiday. Hopefully I won't need to drag myself up on Tuesday to go to work. It will be super exciting to know what project I will be put on in Melbourne.
Time check again: 1.14am...Time to log off! That's about all the 2 weeks short break back in Msia. Looking forward to going back to Melb and back to Msia again!

Then on Monday, I will be joining Shu Chyn and Shu Min for lunch before meeting up Khoon Leng and Krishna for dinner.
It seems like I've got everything planned until the very last minute of my holiday. Hopefully I won't need to drag myself up on Tuesday to go to work. It will be super exciting to know what project I will be put on in Melbourne.
Time check again: 1.14am...Time to log off! That's about all the 2 weeks short break back in Msia. Looking forward to going back to Melb and back to Msia again!

TWU
It's Feb already! Time passed so quickly!
Life changed so quickly just in a month, in days, in seconds. What I thought I would be doing today 2 months ago is completely different today. Now I'm in Bangalore attending ThoughtWorks University (TWU), training. Arrived last Thursday, since then been having heaps of fun, met many new friends from across the globe and experiencing all kinds of local food.
I'm too lazy to write more ...

Holiday - 2006
Year 2006! Made myself 10 new resolutions this year, hmm...decided to keep it to myself so if I don't achieve it end of the year, nobody knows. "P
Ever since my parents went back, I've been hanging around with some other parents, making me all occupied for the past few weeks. Been having the pleasure and priviledge of having home cook Malaysia/taiping food here in Melbourne: Nasi Lemak, Har mee, Mee Rebus, TouFuFa, A-Char, Cakes, Mooncake, home-made bread, Roti Canai, Wonton Mee...etc etc. Yummy, in case you are wondering whether I've gained weight, I was worried too, but don't think I did much... :) And they are leaving this weekend, will definitely miss the food, i mean them!
Finally, got my hands on the latest Harry Potter book. Took me less than 2 days to finish the entire book. *sob* such sad endings *sob* Now I can't wait for the next book to be published. I'm hoping for miracles to happen in the coming book. Definitely will rush to get a copy.
10 more days before I start my first job! How exciting!! Not really...bleuh...but it's better than staying home and do nothing. And I need money too! Hopefully the company has lotsa young and fun people.
Time for bed...
