Summarize few weeks in a post =)

Since I am not in the mood of studying and I am feeling bored, I might as well update my blog =)

I just wonder how many people are still reading me and visiting my blog now? After the long pause from updating. We are so near to June now, could not believe it! Exams are just around the corner, winter is on the way, holidays is in 4 weeks ahead and it is time to call the end of semester. Sad but true, I am not going back because my mum is here and it cost way too much.

This year, I find myself again, thinking and wondering too much. Blame it on the long journey rides I have to take everyday. Never in my life I would ever thought study is tough/difficult. I stand on the ground, as long as one did study, he or she will get it through by the end of the day. And I never come to comprehend when people contemplate about I could not understand what I am studying. How the hell one could not understand if they read it?

It is getting to me now, in my life after 22 years of existence in the earth! Just like everyone else would ever told me and I see myself saying 'I don't understand what am I studying or reading'! DAMN! It felt so dumb to me to say such thing. But I am going through it, I am not giving up for what people say giving up means you suck fail. Ok lahh, unless really not relevant and it bothers my life so much! Another reason for doing it so because God says "If God has bring it to you, He will bring you through it".

During the moment of sadness alluring me in the airport during my 1 hour transit, my uncle texted me.

Wherever you go,

Remember to always bring Jesus with you,

In this way,

You will succeed in all your attempts and heart desires.

How many of us will trust this statement? This time is another time of the year that I need to go through in order to have better days promising in future. Anyone is going through the difficult times in life? Do leave me a comment or email me. I want to know you people out there, where ever you are.

This post should not be emo ... but as I typed all the words, every word becomes a form of expression. HAHA!

Just let me show what I did last week.

They are my group members in action...

We studying graffiti on Newtown. The argument of graffiti is a form of art or vandalism.

I know it felt so weird! Why am I writing pieces like that because I didn't see the direct connection with tourism management. Like I said, it makes me wonder again (@.@)

Resting for a minute ...

Some of the graffiti spotted in the area. 

Don't you think its amazing? The work of spray cans and talented hands form something new. I don't know how to appreciate though, so it is depends on the eyes of the beholder.

Another piece...

 

Bloody lunch cost me $13!!! Not so nice pun. Will not visit again. Very few choices also.

YUM CHA!! 

Last week, finally had a proper yum cha session in Iron Chef Chinese Seafood Restaurant in Cabramatta.

The mumm-mumm...

And I brought my mum to my Uni for a short tour. An insight of my Uni and where I actually spend most of my time. 

Turn nerdy mode all the time already. Didn't wear lenses for a donkey years!! 

That's where I always hop up and down of the bus that doesn't match the train connecting time and left me waiting for half an hour for a bloody short ride of 10 minutes. GEZZZ!!

Brief version of my few weeks history. 

What do you

... think about my new template? I am so into purple suddenly. You might ask, why is Hannah Montana taking over my header - the thing is I don't know how to change it! I suck in HTML stuff and I do not have passionate towards learning about it >.< my bad! Also, I do not have money to hire someone to do it for me.

Anyway, let me know what do you think about my blogskin?

Your comment is very much appreciated! xxxx

Have a great weekend alrighttttt.....

Autumn

I really wanted to blog so much. So much that I started compiling all the stuff I wanted to blog. Every single thing in my mind, in no particular sequence - basically my feelings and my observation of Sydney.

I want to show you pictures! Moments of my life, but I don't have the courage to do so, not anymore as before. It is all because of my first semester is so freaking hectic and I find difficulties in catching up in EVERY unit! Did you see it in caps lock. I do it on purpose!

Basically, it is not easy, every week I have to be on the move, everytime, with tons of readings and understanding, probably my own opinion or what do I think. I mean I have the chance to raise questions that doubt me in my studies,I could start to develop argument in a positive way. I discovered, Malaysia kind of study method is memorizing and spoon feeding all the time. That's the major difference of all!

Another thing is I didn't buy any textbook! I can't afford them! They cost bloody expensive like over $60 for each and sadly, second hand books cost like $10 lesser. It is still expensive to me anyway. All I did is borrow from the library, photocopy the important part. Should I be sad of myself for doing this? OMGGGG!!!

Sydney is such a nice place. Did I just say it nice? My perception was so wrong at first! It was back in 13 years ago and I judged it all the way through the years until today when I finally stepped my foot on Sydney ground once again. No, it is no longer the Sydney it was used to be in my past experience. This place is so mixed by now, with multi racial all over and I encountered a few Australians aren't really friendly. But I am not going to judge all of them is the same. I still have some hope that there are friendly Australians around here! *fingers cross

Next week is going to be week 7 in my semester! Ridiculous! So quickly time had passed by. A bit of reflection. Don't ask me what I've learned so far, I really couldn't explain in words nor in body language. I suck big time! I get to know quite a number of acquaintance but not friends. I am still solo-ing in U most of the time. Is this going to be for the rest of the semester that I need to go through? Please don't! *pray hard I actually has a good friend, but she dropped a subject, appealed to be one of the hardest in this autumn, leaving me solo-ing again. *sigh

Back to reflection. Highlights!

Went to city, walk around near Darling Harbour, Chinatown. Checked.

Visited tourist spots, Bondi Beach and Watson's Bay. Checked.

Play pokies. Checked. But I didn't win any yet! *Boo

Have not bought anything from Uni cafeteria. Checked. I always have pack lunch,never forget!

Ate Doritos/Meat Pies/Tim Tam/Ice cream/Pizza/Spaghetti/Chips with chicken salt to the max. Checked. Ok, what is chicken salt? Salt made by chicken, they sprinkle it on the fries selling in KFC and kebabs outlet.

Get a new phone. And I am now an owner of Nokia E63. Checked. I didn't use to like Nokia anymore after using SE. But I've got no choice, that's the cheapest plan I could afford.

Lack of blogging. Definitely! Checked.

Always going through the trains & buses timetable every weekday. Checked!

Applying sunblock every weekday. Checked.

Always checking the weather updates. Checked.

Watch Border Security programme. Checked.

OMGGG!! Look at my list, not even interesting at all! How to make my life become interesting?!

I must shared about Border Security programme. It is a programme showing visitors been quarantine in australia's airports. How some tried to smuggle drugs to the country and visitors that fail to declare their belongings properly. It is a good programme especially seeing how the drug smuggler acted and behaved before being caught red handed.

Its 11.26pm now, I think I should do some reading and sleep because I have to wake up for yumcha. In OZ, yumcha means dim sum for breaky. Yeaps, that's right dimsum in OZ, much more delicious that we had back in KK, big and juicy siew mai and har kao. It is opened by HongKee so not bad after all.

Maybe pic-cass next time.

Summer in Sydney

hi everyone! yes, finally, i am updating at least 1 post! fuh.. i am so sorry! Didn't get to wish you guys Happy Chinese New Year!

May the year of Tiger be another great year ahead! :)

So I am now in Sydney. Just yesterday I had a long sleep after all the days I had arrived. I haven't see much of Sydney yet! No even my own campus. LOL! 

I don't have a phone yet because I am still calculating the plans. Not cheap for me, but if I earn AUD bucks then it's fine.

I have 4 core subjects this semester and everyday I have classes. :( how to work? the class timing are odd too! i am trying hard to adjust. My Uni is all about independent learning. Everything will be done online and i will spending ages of time in front of a computer that couldn't speak to me, which i could only direct the mouse to where i want to go. internet at home is slow!

Last weekend, i went to Bondi beach and Watson's Bay. If you don't know what is it, go google it. Hahaha!! Show you a few photos first because I don't have time to transfer, compress and upload. Hang in there for a while yaa, i've got a lot to catch up.

Time save me!!

Bondi Beach. For the first time, I see so many people in a beach. very commercialize!

 

 Watson's Bay. I didn't climb up to the top because it is tiring and I was wearing skirt. (Actually was going to Chinatown but change of plan, that's why I was in skirt okay)

"Lau Sang" dinner for CNY in Sydney. I don't think I ever did this back at home. LOL! Thanks Aunt Audrey and Uncle Jo for the home made chinese dinner.

Last but not least, 

 

Rambutan supposed to be Malaysia's local fruit. Is it still now? Written "Product of Australia".

So I were to say that in my class presentation, will they actually laugh at me or what?!
