Thoughts of Conflict

I think I tend to create all sorts of complications within myself, and stuff around me. Now I'm filled in conflict, as half my mind says this, half my mind says the other. It's always hard to be simple, as much as I yearn for it.

Now comes to the two hardest issues to create compromise. Yet instilled in my mind, one factor easily reigns over the other. But the consequences? Am I gonna sacrifice something I've always wanted? My mind feels so at loss, it seeps endlessly through my thoughts and takes away my appetite too.

Are the differences finally catching up? Saying that it's not gonna happen? I really hope not. Is this how it's gonna be like? My mind has loads of questions wanting to come out, but I woke up too late today. I'm hoping to ask, if not now, but when we meet later, and I hope he'll be there and willing to answer.

Into Week 3 of Home Sweet Home

January.. where did January go? It totally flew by. Just beginning of this month, I was with someone special far from home. At the end of the month, I'm without a laptop, I have a new sister-in-law, I have appointments to schedule, people to meet, stuff to purchase, internet to install, and so on.

In addition, I have mum attempting to ensure I start work as soon as possible. (So I kinda messed up my assessment, as I rushed to the office barely five days after my arrival)

In my first week at home, I had Amy keeping me company. Thanks for the helping hand ^^ Sorry I couldn't be more hospitable, rather than dragging you around for my chores.

Seeing my big brother getting married created mixed feelings within. Knowing that he has found his happiness and love makes me feel happy for him, that now he's like, a husband :o Sometimes it's hard to believe too, haha. It was only 2.5 years ago or so, when I left for Australia, while he's still being a bachelor hooked onto his computer thingamajigs (still is hooked anyway). On the other hand it's like, awhh, he's now settled down.. how often will I see him now? How often would I enjoy doing things together with him? Needless to say, the house is indeed a lot quieter without him (remember the occasional sudden loud noises of World of Warcraft coming from his room).

Finally it was only 3 days ago when I got the opportunity to meet up with some friends, from my secondary school and two of my ex-housemates. I can't believe I spent about 9 hrs at the mall xP (including watching Underworld 3)

Just in a day, and it'll be February. One of the most interesting months of the year. o.O

Now back home after almost a year away, things are as hectic as ever.

Straightaway got home and caught up with all the happenings of the wedding, and also pushed to report to work as soon as possible. Assessment happened yesterday, it was alright, but I was definitely unprepared.

Day off plz o.o

Ik ben hier!

Ik mis je.

I'm back in Sydney. For now.

Travels~

I'm now in Aarschot, Belgium. A couple of days ago I was in London. Slightly more than a couple of days ahead, I'll be in Germany. Visiting friends are so much fun.

The plane ride, not so much fun. I hate long plane rides xD But.. it was worth it :D

I've been trying to be careful with my arm, it seems to not hurt as often at night as it used to. Specifically at night when I sleep. Hopefully the ligament makes full recovery by Christmas, then I can start strength training it.

Lots of interesting stuff talked about and discussed. And happened, like coming here, being in a station where I could not understand anything I read xP

Oh, it's cold. really cold. :P

First Ever Physio

is painful :P
not damn painful, but painful enough :P

anyways, couldn't resist, this is soo cute:


funny pictures of cats with captions
more animals

Pains, Injuries and Results.. oh and Melb

After exams were over, things remained as hectic as ever. Didn't even realise it's been over a month since I last blogged o.O omg.

Anyway, sailing fun has given me some unexpected (srsly unexpected ;p) injuries and stuff. The last being a rope burn around my neck and a ligament tear on my right elbow. That happened on the 14th of Nov, and right now, the rope burn is healing well while my arm.. still can't be straighten. I fear that I'd be forced to fish out a lot of cash (80++ per visit) for physio.. x.x

Cash.. cash.. Strapped for cash at the moment.. Due to some circumstances, I had overpaid my tuition fees and is waiting the refund.. The refund is taking ages.

So many things happening.. I'm gonna go travelling with Amy soon. Gonna be awesome ^^ Just two weeks ago I was in Melbourne. Pics on facebook (as usual). I reckon my facebook tends to be more updated than my blog.. Guess 'cause it's a lot easier to update. xP

Exams exams.. Exams ended and results were announced last week. I'm gonna graduate! ^_^ Finally, lol =p

Oh, and it's summer now. DAMN HOT. :K

The Pressure is Onnnn

One study week, One week of exams, One dance competition maybe?

Sailing~!!!

Starting from the first day of the women's summer squad training at CYCA is fun. Last week the wind was really strong, everyone got sprayed with water. This week the wind was light, enabling me to learn to be the bow properly. Tho I still suck =p

Now I'm not really looking forward to the dance.. o.o it's gonna take a big chunk outta my study time, and it's something I don't think I can afford to do at the moment, being my last semester. I have to do all I can to pass and excel. (Just pass for actl). I'm really inclined to pull out.. I just gotta figure out how to tell my partner...

Have I ever mentioned how beautiful it is to sail in Sydney? =D

cat
more animals

Why~?

Why do I have a blog? :P

Just a random thought as Sindy and I talk about blogs and people in my room :D

(Oh please don't look back at my old old posts on this blog xD)

Happy 21st, Hui Chien ^_^

We celebrated our housemate Hui Chien's birthday last Monday during our mid-term break at Waterfront, Circular Quay, together with Mei Chia as well. Pictures on facebook as usual =p

For MC, we compiled a collage of photos on a board, while for HC we compiled notes written from various friends into an album.

Here's a poem I wrote for my note to her, just to fill up such a huge paper xP (tho it was only A4). Note that there are a lot of inside jokes/details, so there will be bits that seem like, 'err what?'

Just over two decades ago,
Hui Chien's adventure began,
Time flew and here she is now,
Grown yet still a growing woman.

By chance we met, and from there
the past recurring through our thoughts
Blaming each other, everywhere
to the eyes of others, we always fought

From the time we lived together
Our fondness and 'hatred' grew
Pitting our wits against each other
We exercised our passion to argue

Yet fun times remain plenty
Leeching cooking skills are rewarding ;)
Shopping trips made our purses empty
Yet those times are amazing :)

There were good times and bad times
And I am honoured to share them with you
Throught time, I've learned your signs
To be happy, my *pods* you chew

Nothing in life is a smooth sailing,
Many trying times will occur,
Yet you remain strong and smiling,
Inspiring others to persevere.

In your twenty one years,
You achieved such great heights,
Yet your journey is far from over,
No doubt you'll go much much further.

Truly I am grateful,
to be your housemate, and friend,
No other being is like you,
No other person can really spend. xD

From this auspicious occasion onward
Continue blessing those around you
With your presence, your warmth, so pure
Always be optimistic, always stay true

Wishing you a very happy 21st
From the one you love to hate
May our friendship ever last
May your beauty never fade

~Ayin

No, it does not totally rhyme. I didn't really care =p Time was short, and there was much to be done.

Here I am now in the Computer Lab during a public holiday working on assignments T_T
