Sometime you feel confident in facing challenges, thinking that you will be OK even if you fail. But the fact is that this is what you think, I am sure youwould find it hard to accept when you know the failure.....

 

This always happens to me but I know I can recover quite quick and be back to normal again...... However this is no longer the case today.....

 

Yeah got back the IAA results.... and ofcoz not that impressive else I would be in a party and not writing this piece of message........

 

I notice I haven't passed any exam for a while.... feel quite sad actually...... the first time you feel ok not to pass becoz you are new to the course.... second time you think you are closer and just lack of something.... but the third time I run out of excuses (lack of luck?? questions go against you??).....

 

To be honest I don't rush for the qualification, but just feeling depress becoz of the time, money and effort spent on it and nothing really comes out. It is a problem of not moving instead of moving slowing...... yeah I feel I am far away... very far away.....

 

Anyway life must goes on, hope I can find incentive for it again..... but at the moment I am in "recession"

 

 

 

 

 

 

Can't imagine I have had some many hot pots recently..... I guess it is the time to have fun and enjoy life before the end of financial year...... OMG so much to do in the coming months.... don't really want to work to be honest.... *sigh*....

 

Went to Xiao Ou's new place last night.... haven't seen him for a while since he no longer lives in Eastwood..... really great to see his house is much bigger and tidy than before.... I wish he can have a new chapter of his life too......

 

Have known him for around 10 years now.... still remember we caught the same bus to school, studies the same course in high school as well as in university..... Xiao Ou is definitely a smart guy who is quick to learn, can't reckon if he didn't become my tutor...... congrat to his new career path, hope he will like what he is going to do.....

 

I think I am kind of sick of hot pot now even I used to enjoy it a lot...... maybe had too much in the recent lime..... but next semesterwill start very soon... anything is better than study.... PLAY HARD NOW

 

 

I think one of the hottest topic in recent time has to be Euro 2008..... in fact I really want to follow the games, but only one game shows on TV each week... and the time is from 4am in the morning.... SLEEP IS MORE IMPROTANT.....

 

I guess the game has been good so far, really delighted to see Netherlands and Spain play well..... finally some teams can beat Italy and France

 

Soccer is not a popular sport in Aus, I reckon Euro 2008 would be very "hit" in Hong Kong....

 

Another thing about "Euro" is the Honda Accord Euro is on run out now....... Yeah the new Euro 2008 will be out soon..... quite like this car... it has a powerful engine, good quality and good handling.....

 

Heard from Alex today saying it only costs $30,000 (Auto) currently..... WOW so cheap..... maybe this will be my first car..... but who knows, need to check my bank account first................ 

 

 

 

 

 

 

With hard work and OT, I got a gift certificate @ Cafe Sydney...

 

This is an expensive restaurent... to be honest I won't go if I don't have this "discount"

 

The food is pretty good but not excellent, however service is good and the view is prefect..... (it is the same as the view from my workplace... so nothing really special to me.....)

 

After this classy dinner we continue our "Big Stomach tradition".... yeah we had a second round in Chinatown..... Can't believe my friend said he was still hungry..... We order 4 big dishes and share between 3 ppl.... the volumn is at least a double as what we previous had ...

 

The fact is I can't eat much anymore..... always ate a lot with these bros but now I can only watch them to empty the dishes.....

 

Well too bad.... but I could beat you guys in hotpot 

 

 

 

Time flies and it has been a year now since I came back to Sydney..... A few things that I have noticed of myself...

 

1) Have got fatter now compare to the time I was in HK.... Yeah not much exercise and too much driving in Aus  haha..... I miss the long stair in HK.... Every night I needed to climb about 200 steps all the way back to home...... it saved me a lot of money from the gym....

 

 2) Have a more balance life in Aus..... Call up friends for activities..... But life can be quite bored without housework ahaha.....

 

3) Have put more time to study and work..... Sorry to say this but this is reality... Just can't get away from it

 

4) ??....... Did i miss anything??......

 

Watch so much TVB series recently..... Think the song of 太極 is good..... Not telling you to 耍太極.... But it contains a philosophy of life

 

"善莫善於水　輕與重　也借勢推送
柔弱莫弱於水　水轉動　卸去了心痛
容大莫大於水　將壓力　化清風
磨到　頑石也融　將恨意歸空"

 

Doesn't matter where you live, doesn't matter what you do..... Thing can just be as liquid as water
