A day in a blink of an eye.

Today was both productive and not productive.

Productive
@ Woke up at 7.40am without alarm. Unbelievable. (That's like 4.40am for +8 countries)
@ It is FINALLY a week day -- called the lodgings info centre and had someone take a look at the rangehood, fridge and aircon. woohoo! Three things off my to-do list.
@ Finally got my financial stuff settled.
@ Signed up for a Welcome Day event on Thursday.
@ Drank my target of minimum 1.5l of water daily. yay!
@ Finally not instant noodles! yay! (cos I bought mianxian, yumms.)
@ Listened to some useful tips on video.
@ FINALLY got the chance to sit down and start reading my AUD$12 worth of notes (and this is only Week 1, imagine the cost T_T )
@ Utilised my origami skills and made square and rectangular boxes to organise some stuff on my table. :)))

Unproductive
@ Read some notes, and I got distracted to check out events. oops.
@ Haven't got down to arranging my stationeries.
@ Haven't got down to managing my wardrobe.




Habits don't change much huh, even with the change of environment and circumstances. My daily to-do lists are still so long. hahaha. WHY are there so many things to settle (both at work / school / personal)? hahaha.

And from the above lists, even though it seems like I did more productive things than unproductive things.. but I shouldn't gloat on that but get my act down to doing what's important.

学会负责任

当你的生活饮食起居需要有所整顿或者重新规划，生活突然变得特别忙碌。无时无刻，都必须设想接下来需要买什么、需要准备什么、需要处理什么、担当的后果是什么等。

原来之前的日子何等“安逸”，只不过缺少闲暇。日日忙忙碌碌，累得没有时间休息，却无需为鸡毛蒜皮的事情烦心。

现在“闲暇”多得是，却反而变得“繁琐”于处理各种大小事。真是一种讽刺。

但是，充实吗？我相信会是的。为“自己”打好基础，不论是自己这个人而言，也是开阔眼界。学会负责任，原来这才是开始。为自己负责任不单单是处理好自己分内（工作、房间）的事情，为家人负责任也不单单是缴交水电费、订购日常用品、工作尽善尽美避免犯错才能领薪水养家糊口，而是一种生活的方式和秉持个人的原则生活。还有，为自己的健康安全负责任，也是对家人一个重要的责任。

The becoming of an ahjumma / obasan.

Totally becoming an ahjumma/obasan here in this new city, alone.

Without care for image whatsoever, my hair was windswept, big jacket (which doesn't suit the weather according to Melbournians, but, ahjumma here is feeling damn cold, so whatever), and carrying two big eco-bags of groceries and whatnots, some plastic bags, and of course with a strained expression on my face.

Totally no image. #没有形象可言

Sometimes I do wonder how those atas women shop, in impeccable suit/dress, face fully made-up, donned with a pair of classy shades, petite handbag slung on their arms, and trotting around in their heels. wow. That is totally not realistic in real life huh. No ugly plastic bags or eco-bags. hahahha.


Anyway, yup, the becoming of an ahjumma. hahahaha.
And of course, part of the reasons being too lazy to walk too many times, so I just brave it, encouraged my shoulders, hands and feet, and there I go with two HUGE bags of stuff.




There's always a time to do something, anything for yourself. :)

On living.

I've always been very much alone..

So living and surviving anywhere alone doesn't seem that daunting nor unimaginable. 

It's just a different place, that's all.

いってきます

It just feels like going on a trip... just that its a very long trip. That's all.

~ whatever happens, happens for a reason. =)

一切從簡，希望。

曾經，那麽簡單。
怎麽，越年長，越復雜，越無奈，越多顧慮，越多顧忌？
簡直是神經質的“災難幻想癥”。

『待續』

Keep calm, and just do it.

I am almost going bonkers with the NEVERENDING lists of to-do lists DAILY.
This is quite alarming and unsettling.

Take a deep breath, and keep calm.
