Yo Ho Ho
Hey guys, it's been a while hasn't it?

Well it's cos i've been too tired and lazy to update. Nowadays slping much earlier. In fact i'm already really slpy.. but since i haven't done tis for a while.. so here i am.

Work has been quite tough this week.. a lot more things to do compared to last wk. Been rejecting ppl.. haha ppl asking for sponsorships tat is.. translating chinese articles. Had to do quite a no. of fone calls for various things. Quite a no. that i dun feel weird toking to strangers on the fone anymore.. last time like dunno wat to say.. now much better.. PR.. wat to do? haha

But anyways, i'm not gona turn tis into another journal.. haha bleah.. tok bout tat.. handed it 1 hr late.. but hopefully DD didn't check it exactly at 12midnight and waited till the next morning.. hopefully it's ok ah..

Pam and Meng Hwee had their last day on Fri, office gona be so boring from 2ml onwards.. no more grp gossip sessions. only me n Leya left. But i tink work's gona get much busier so not much time to gossip also.. Mervyn gave me the whole SYF Band Fiesta to take charge of.. well at least tat'll kp me occupied.

Last wk managed to meet up wif Yanz n Ame. Tat was good.. had a gd time of toking.. non-stop in fact.. Tis weekend was good too.. got a gd rest.. n spent time wif Alvin

O n todae so happy, u noe y? cos i got 2 letters from the 2 kids that i was close to in Cambodia!!! they remembered me!! haha ;) sigh.. i wanna go see them.. hopefully next trip i can make it down...

It's back to the office 2ml.. not really looking 4ward to it.. but i gota do it.. though i rather be slping.. haha anyways.. i'll catch ya guys soon! slpy... zzzzzz

Anyways one lesson i learnt todae.. never email all the journalists together.. did tat n Mervyn said i shd have been more prudent.. sigh.. feel so stupid for doing that.. i shd have known better.. but well wat's done is done..

Yah.. n todae.. he went for an interview wif Chang Chin.. haha so now Chang Chin is one of my contacts.. cos i have to email him pics n he needs to update me bout his article.. how coincidental is tat.. like i said in Ame's blog.. this media business is that small.. heh but anyways when i told Mervyn that Chang Chin was from our course.. he was like.. "No wonder.." haha wat do u tink it meant? haha ;p

2ml work again.. have to do translation.. turns out Leya is not the only one who needs to do it.. me too.. haha work is starting to get heavier.. but at least there's stuff to do now.. yeap.

Tat's wat i've basically been doing at work.. cos i dun really ahve much work to do.. YET... Reading up on an upcoming event tat i will most prob start work on next wk.. HOPEFULLY!! So bloody bored in office i tell u.. either staring at the com. screen looking at documents after documents or else looking at all the papers in files bout the event..

Time passing slower each day.. cos i'm running out of tings to read!! bleah.. but at least did other stuff todae.. haha do filing n update Mervyn's stuff.. feel like his secretary.. which Pam warned me already on the 1st day.. haha

But it's kinda scary seeing Pam work on the articles n all.. cos i'll have to do tat when she leaves.. n also on top of that the events n being Mervyn's secretary not to 4get.. so work will only get heavier for me..

But frankly speaking.. i'm kinda looking forward to it.. anyways it'll only be for 6mths so better make full use of wat i have.. but i of cos i still wanna relac.. not enuff slp ah.. so bloody tired still, though i dun do much. Also have to work on 2 Sundays next mth.. confirmed.. cos of event.. when everything is settled den i'll announce it to u guys.. n u guys can come visit me at work yah?? haha ;)

Alrite.. time to update.. my much overdue update.. heh ;)

Anyways.. in case u didn't noe.. I'M BACK!! haha i tink u all shd noe.. cos i'm posting tat everywhere since i came back.. haha

So the trip was really good. Had time for a REAL HOLIDAY spending time wif my family and at the same time go shopping.. see Murdoch Uni.. and meet lotsa new ppl.

Stayed wif my dad's fren, Uncle Allan tat's y managed to come online cos could use the com. though my younger bro was hogging it most of the time.. n playing games.. especially the weekend cos tat's when the youngest son, Samuel comes back from boarding school.. so they played Gunbound wif each other.. haha

Ok as for wat i did there.. read on..

Reached Perth n headed for a shopping centre to walk around and get some groceries for the next few days.. cos my dad drove us down to Margaret River, which was outside Perth the next day.. drove down to a few small towns besides MR.. went to Busselton and Dunsborough n it was wonderful man.

Sights were wonderful.. the sea was beautiful.. and the weather was the best! Haha was cold but the cool ting was.. we rented out own cottage and we had our own fireplace. So my dad's hobby for the 2 nites (one in MR n the other in Duns.) we spent out there was putting wood in the fireplace. Haha will put up some fotos to show u guys.. heh

Yeap den went back to Perth on Thurs.. went to see my mum's cousin and did some shopping cos Thurs was late nite shopping in the suburbs. Heh Fri.. went to see some schools for Gzerrel n went back cos Uncle Allan organised a BBQ and invited his sis-in-law n more of my dad's frenz too. Tat's when I learnt more about how to get driving license in Oz.. my gdness.. I'm definitely gona take it there.. so much cheaper n easier!! Haha

Well see tis is wat u gota do.. first u take the theory test.. which costs like bout $30 or so.. den after u pass it u can go for practical lessons.. n take the test when u r ready. Den u pay bout $100 plus or less or more.. depending on how many lessons u wan n also the test. Den u pass u can drive!! Haha but u gota clock up a certain no. of hours of driving.. n sumone gota fill in a log book for u.. after tat u take a hazard test.. which is MCQ also.. n cost another $20 or so.. n u can officially drive! Haha so much easier rite? heh

Sat my mum cooked popiah cos we had a popiah party at my parents' old church frenz place, Uncle Lam n Auntie Jennifer.. so again met more of my dad's frenz.. yeap n the next few days.. after till I came back.. was full of eating n eating n shopping n seeing schools n did I mention eating? haha my gdness.. I tell u I feel so fat!! N I put on weight.. sigh.. gota lose more weight now.. haha doesn't help tat the first ting my older bro said when i got back was.. "You're getting fatter!"

O yah anyways on the Sun went to my dad's fren, Uncle Jack's church. Sermon was good man.. was a guest speaker.. n he toked bout "Why Are You Here?" n the answer.. because God wants to bless us(Genesis 1:28). Serving him.. loving him.. worshipping him are all by-products.. God doesn't need them but he would definitely love it if we do. N bless means wealthy n happy. The pastor gave the example of mothers loving their child.. all they wanna do is bless her children.. she doesn't expect anyting out of the child. And even after she noes wat it's like to have a kid.. when she sees another baby she still says the baby is lovely and wishes to have another. So in the same God feels tat way bout us too. How wonderful is tat? ;)

Well after the service.. stayed around to chit chat a bit n met quite a few youths there.. all Singaporeans. (The church mainly made up of Asians..) Toked to them.. n it was pretty interesting n fun toking to them. Really nice ppl. Felt good to tok to ppl my age again.. cos was meeting mostly adults the last few days.. haha

Anyways tat bout sums up my trip.. wanna noe more.. ask me.. cos I dun tink there's much more interesting stuff.. haha o except tat I was dizzy the last few days. Dunno y but juz woke up in the middle of one nite feeling like tat.. and it's been on n off till now.. so pray for me yah ppl ;)

Yeap as for todae.. got to do quite a lot of stuff tat I need to do for church and went for Bible Conference. Was pretty good yeap. But have to wake up early for 2ml.. well ppl.. here are some pics.. den i have to go slp already.. got more i want to say.. but late ah.. need slp.. heh enjoy..
