near the end of this semester

Time past so quick when getting busy and concentrate on work.
Today was already the end of Week 10 which means it's near the end of this semester.
So holiday is coming after this busy time.....

I like holiday with no doubt. However, I'm a bit scared of holiday especially spending holiday here. I still remember late last holiday, after Gold Coast trip, I spent nearly 2 weeks at home...... it's a nightmare for me. I did noting at home but eating and sleep and I felt I was wasting my time.

The holiday is coming again. I will definitely find something interesting to do and not to stay at home every day. Now I'm thinking of finding a part-time job or taking language course or learning a musical instrument. ha ha~~ I prefer making money rather then spending money.

My dear friends, Do you make a plan for your holiday? What are you going to do?

P.S.: I know some of my friends in HK they nearly finish their summer holiday and they have to go back work again. ha ha... Cheer up!!!

An important listener

Who do you usually talk to when you have trouble??Friends? Lover?? Parents??
But have you ever had the experience that you don't know who you should talk to when you are in a dilemma?? I was in this similar situation few days ago.

Usually, if I have any difficulty, I will definitely talk to one of my cousins or my dear friends and they always give me support. But now, I'm in Sydney and I couldn't see them or contact them very often. Beside them, parents are other good "listeners" for me. However, I'm sure they won't totally understand me this time and if I tell them, I will worry them. Maybe you will ask why I didn't tell my friends here, I just can say......I tried...but.....

I know when I tell anyone about this worry, they would think I just considerate too much. I also know it's impossible to totally understand some one's feeling because somebody else do not stay in the same situation. So, I just kept it in secret but until yesterday.

I think I am lucky, at least there is one who understands or tries to understand my feeling. To be honest, what I need is not an efficient solution or any comfortable saying. What I really need is just a "listener" who is willing to spend me few minutes and not to stop me when I raise my worry.

Now I feel much better after talking to you. I'm really grateful to you for your help. I think I will make the greatest decision soon.

Believe or not??

A superstitious saying from HK is that if people clockwise walk around the peach blossom tree three times , you then have good luck in love. I'm not sure if people in China have this custom, however, do you believe it??

This morning, I found the peach blossom tree in my home now flowers, then I told my homestay family this superstitious saying and they asked their daughter and me to walk around the tree as we both have no boyfriend now. Actually, I tried to walk around a peach blossom tree few years ago and after that, I met my first boyfriend. I don't know if it's a coincidence or it really works. The fact is that I don't think that relationship is "good luck" as it lasted only for 4 months ==".... haha~ I'm now thinking of that if I walked the wrong direction at the time......

Besides, another saying is that placing a peach blossom tree at home can improve relations with others. It's the reason why HK artists they like to buy one during New Year because they hope it can make others in terms of audience like them or become popular.

Although I don't really believe that I can get a boyfriend after walking around the tree, I still want a "try".But I'm just wondering if I walk more than 3 times, like 6 times or 9 times, will I get 2 or 3 "seekers"? Anyway, I decided to do it tomorrow :P !! Let's see if I can meet my Mr. Right soon !!

Something happen with no expectation.

Today I have bascially planed to have pancake with my friend. However, he already left Sydney last night. I have never expected that he would leave me soon and I thought we can still go somewhere to have fun during this weekend. But something happen by accident, he received a call from HK two days ago and he has to come back HK before 10 August as he will have a interview for fireman. So he has left here in hurry. I still remember when we were taking train yesterday, he told me that he had to leave Sydney at night. I was shocked after hearing that! I know he has also never thought of leaving Sydney suddendly.

I know he will come back here soon (hopefully after interview)so that I don't feel extremely upset ^^(I think he will be sad after reading this). But I just feel something happened suddenly and it's too random for me.

Anyway, I hope he will be alright for the interview and GOOD LUCK!

Snowy Mountain becomes Blue Mountain

My dear friends, tell you a sad thing.....
I made a plan to go skiing with friends this week. However, the plan had to be cancelled because of the full booking of motel. What upset us most was that we received a call from the travel agency just "one" day before our departure.... so that it's impossible for us to join another trip....
We were finally forced to cancel this trip and deciced to go Blue Mountain.
I comforted myselfe that Blue Mountain is similar to Snowy Mountain because both are mountain, both are colder than Sydney, both are close to natural environment......
I know it's very ridiculous to persuade myself that Blue Mountain is similar to Snowy Mountain ==" haha~ However, I feel much better after saying that.....
Although I couldn't go skiing finally, I enjoyed the Blue Mountain trip.

And, I MUST go there next year!!!!!
