a gift

I have been given a gift. A gift that is wanted by so many people. Yet, it seems so far away from me. Have you heard of "the Journey to The West"? It's something like that. You are guaranteed of something so valuable in front of you if you can fulfill whatever it takes to get there.

what does it take??


effort cannot be less. as the effort is being monitored, effortless? axed, your chance is over.

confidence must be there. without confidence where come the determination to continue unwrapping?

determination of course. it is something that keeps you going..

believing. have to believe that the present is actually there to be grabbed if you succeed.

health. so that it doesn't obstruct you from moving forward.

....................................................................................................................................................................

I have planted the seed. I have to take care and i gave all out to monitor the growth of it. I am anticipating for the first leave of the tree next week. Extra green if it needs to be.*if you understand what am I talking about* haha

It is my sleeping time. yes, 2015. early rite? to wake up at 0430 tomorrow.

脚印

人生总留下许许多多的脚印。尽管那脚印是多么的深，就如沙滩上的，隔一天那脚步印就消失得无影无踪了。

回忆呢？

用心留下的，我相信都会铭记于心，要褪色也得看主人愿不愿意放手。

但是印象深刻但不刻意留存的，我相信会被时间冲淡。时间就像海水冲上海岸，海水犹如一片布，擦掉所有岸上沙滩的涂鸦。恢复平白的沙滩又是时候接受新的画面了。。。。

在进入二十岁的尾端，经历了不少也不会多的事情。人生转折了好几次。增添了不少人生经验，学会了少许的人情世故。而那些回忆，有些已变得十分模糊。。。我用心记下好多美好记忆，一些偷偷地溜走的当儿又被我手擒回来。我相信有好多好多事是值得我保存的。。。。

我张开口，吸了一大口气。海边的风带着轻微的咸味从我的舌头上奔跑，也轻抚我耳朵。同时也带走了那深深的感触。。。

hail

It's the first time I have seen hail.. It was like rocks falling down from the sky. Hopefully there is no people walking out there, or else, May God bless them. It wasn't long, lasted for about 5 minutes only. I didn't make an attempt to go out and touch it, which I should have done. Well, I think it won't be long until i see another round of hail. =)

I checked out news just now. The freaking Aussie Dollar rised until rm 3.13 already! Hope it will go down or else I am going to suffer. =.=""

Been to some blogs and stuffs. I read. Some people are not very sensitive with words. Words do hurt. It might not be intentional, but unintentional words appear to be more hurtful sometimes. I am trying to take care of my words.. haha

I think I will try cooking 宫保鸡丁later. haha. Hope it tastes ok..... cooking soon... =) bye

Movie World

it was Dan's birthday.. Happy birthday Dan... Hope you were happy!

Yea, we went to the Warners Bros. Movie World.. I saw Shrek, Scoobie-Doo, Batman and Superman inside... Really an eye-opener for a kampung boy like me.. haha. I have only been to Sunway Lagoon and Genting Theme park. And frankly speaking, they are no fight to this one... and this isn't the best park in Australia. I wonder what the so-called Australia's largest theme park has to offer.

Anyway, i don't think I am going to that theme park as i have got myself a nearly a year unlimited entry to this Movie world and it's associate themeparks for AUD 99.95... hehe.. I was thinking we might not be able to get it as the offer is opened for Queensland residents only, I was in doubt of our status as a student here.. Thank God that we are granted permission to get the pass.. hahaa, at least there is some place where i can scream all i want when i feel like doing so for the next one year...

for a student like me, without excess money, that's the best thing I can do to at least let myself relax abit... I wonder what would be the feeling of going to a theme park alone, maybe i should try it out sometimes.. *blink* damn pathetic right if i have to go there alone? but i should try.. the only thing is the bus ride which will take me an hour and a half from my house. Through and fro would cost only less than AUD 5.. Kinda cheap actually because the concession price we have =)..

Gonna rock another 2 parks soon since we have already paid for the entry by paying for the VIP pass... hehe. i will long for that one..

Good day!

an update

It's near to one month since I am here in Gold Coast. Time flies. It really flies. And I haven't found myself to be part of the community here yet. I feel like I'm a tourist.. LOL





Allowance is in today. Not a lot. Just enough for a basic basic life. My cooking skills got brushed up by a little already since i moved here. Have to cook every day.. =.="" but somehow cooking is fun.. but it's time consuming.. Maybe i can cook you a good meal when I am back in Malaysia.. haha. I fried Bee Hoon this afternoon..

This was what I had for my lunch today... It tastes not bad, seriously.. haha

Got abit sleepy now... maybe i wil just grab a little quick nap.. Cheers!

Australia's Moon

It's dark out there. and it was mooncake festival night. The Moon was so nice, round and bright up there. It brightened the whole beach.

I smelled salt. The waves were rushing to the beach. One is higher than the other. They come nearer and nearer to me as i stood distance away from the water.... The sound of the wave hitting the sand is soothing yet lonely. i looked out. There is literally noone at the beach. There is only me standing there, alone.

I took off my slippers. My feet were on the sand. It was cold but it was powdery. It's so fine that it felt like putting my feet in talcum powder. I felt blessed to be able to walk on this piece of land. I looked again at the moon. Then I looked at myself. Being alone during mooncake festival isn't too bad. Maybe I will start to miss home another few more weeks or months? Maybe not? or maybe few days from now?

The wind blowed on my face. My thin jacket somehow managed to keep me warm. It was not as cold as what i thought it would before i came here.

I stood there and embraced the ocean in front of me and of course, the full moon.

p/s: have i told u that the beach is just at the back of my house?? haha

below are some of my photos captured by my "so-so" phone.... enjoy!

^^^^ my house ^^^^^

in the center

^^^ this is my room^^^

I took the video standing behind my house, the wind was strong that my t-shirt flapped not stop.. :-)

Happy Mooncake Festival peeps! till then.

丹容马林饥饿30

从五月忙到八月。心里的期待不曾少过。第一次主办这么样的营会，饥饿30更是我的第一次！心里的忐忑以及迫不及待的心理，实在令我喘不过气来！从招募筹委至招募营员到招募志工，那路途可真不容易。尤其是到了期限还找不到足够的营员时，那沮丧的心是文章所不能形容的。

说真的，看到营会开始的那一刹那，心里真的有种莫名的感触...... 虽说我们营会缺席了整30多个人，但是我们的士气绝对没有因此而低落！各位工委及营员们的大力支持使到场面便活跃，生动！看在眼里，一切尽在不言中。。。。


“明天还有希望”奏出了孩童对世界的期望，我们在饥饿30就能成就他们期望的一部分。我们融合了意义及欢乐，让大家体验饥饿的同时也让大家带走那么一个美好回忆（至少对我而言，那是美好的）。澎湃的心化成了一股力量，笼罩整个客属会馆。那爱心真的能感化身边的人！还有几久才能让我再次体会这么美好的感受呢？？？

心里的不舍敌不过时间的摧赶，散席时间让心里的不适涌到了极点。。。。。

再会朋友们！饥饿30永存！


丹容马林饥饿30，我爱你！！！！

Life is a Gamble

Life is a gamble. Is it not?

When we pay for university, do we know for sure we're going to pass out?

When we pay for a good, is it sure that that thing is in good condition?

When we take a loan for a house, do you know for sure that your house isn't haunted?

When we pay for the car, do we know if it's being stolen the next day?

What we do is only to evaluate the risk, to weight the importance of things, and to minimise the risk we're undertaken.

Risk cannot be eradicated. Even if when we're crossing a road, a car may just hit on us. What we do in life is just to gamble safely. That's what i think. And my biggest capital is? my youth of course.....

the result

I got 7.0 for IELTS. Disappointed. I thought I can get higher than that maybe by 0.5 band? Anyway, It doesn't matter. not affecting me.... maybe a bit, emotionally. Still waiting for the other set of result..... how would it be?

when i speak only to myself in the brain

IELTS squeezed my brain for the whole morning. It has been such a long time since i last did that kind of tedious English exam. I'm looking forward for the result in 2 weeks time. I will be recieving 2 sets of results by then. A bit scary huh? haha. I was kind of exhausted after the listening, speaking and reading test. I had lunch with my fellow friends after the tests. Too bad i don't have those photos. =)

And you know what? I drove from Menara PKNS to kelana jaya through the ss2 road, and guess how long i took? 1 HOUR! The damn traffic jam like mad. It exhausts me further....... I slept through my way to British Council, somewhere near the KLCC lrt station.. And there is where I have my speaking test at 4.00pm.

After the test??? haha. Here it is!



KLCC, a place where I have been absent from for quite some times..... I love the place. I like the MPO! and just now i enter Suria KLCC through the MPO entrance, there is a nice concert tonight. So I called up Adrian to ask if he is interested. Negative result. I wanted to go there alone, but thinking of the journey i have to make (through and fro from kelana jaya and KLCC) just to have the clothes changed stops me.

The crowd was so big. I dislike the crowd. I don't like hectic places. I enjoy loneliness (at times, haha). I was by myself. I start observing people. I see girls, abit dissappointed though. hahaha

I was humid and it made me so uncomfortable till I'm in this:

I stayed in there for like 2 hours ++... I browsed through books and magazines. It's a good feel . I like bookstore. I felt at home. LOL. I am a nerd. =P I saw a lot of kids there today. They were happily flapping through books... I don't remember lingering around a bookstore when i was young.... It's a loss, I wish i had. I bought myself a discovery magazine. Gonna finish it ASAP. hehe. My dinner? this one!



1901. I like the packing, it's meaningful, really a must-read! The Deutch Doodle Dang doesn't taste as good as it looks. The mashed potato was ok though. I enjoyed it.



LO 'n' E. If only the V in inverted. yeah, I celebrated my togetherness with my soul. hohoho
I saw this billboard on my way back. I took it down because she(the one in pink) is so pretty. Two ladies were stunt seeing me taking down the photo of the billboard.. Haha. But, she made my day. =D

Oh yeah, i met 黎耀祥 in KLCC. With two body guards when I was walking into the toilet.... My first response was stunned, thinking who's that. Then I realised! Cai Gao!
