November is Over

OOMMMGGG…..the month of November and everything is over…. I finish my exams…I finish my assignments… I finish my internship…. Final word… I finish my DEGREE and one more thing my ERICA contract ended too…. I start my studies at Taylors college in 2003 and finally I finish my studies in 2007 at Curtin University of Technology…5 years of study that should be enough for me… right now I’m having my holidays and waiting for my results on 12 December… I’m still in Perth… din go back Malaysia cause I want to earn some AUSSIE money and if possible get a permanent job here…I find that if I start my work here would be good cause I gain some better experience here than Malaysia… oh well holidays for me are fun and relaxing because I do not have to think about studies except for my results… I have leave home for about 10 months already…I still can’t believe I’m away from home for so long already..So do I miss home?? Half half le…He-he I get to feel the FREEDOM here no nagging from my parents and I can go back ANYTIME I WANT…BWAHAHAHAHAHA *Sound EVIL* ok ok so what have I learnt in Perth… besides studies my experience here some are good and bad… good thing is I learn to be independent and cooking too even though I still can’t cook NICE food but I will try my best to learn…*I guess*..meet some lovely and friendly housemates…I really enjoy staying with them …we have so much fun like having flat dinner, steamboat, barbeque, family trip and the best thing is drinking night (vodka, wine, beer).. Ha-ha I also went for cell group which they have bible talk and worship thingy...Even though I’m not Christian but I don’t mind joining because I get to learn something and also meet awesome people… bible studying is never ending and there is so much to learn plus understand too..... Bad things happen in Perth that one I can’t mention it out…. I’ll keep it for myself….he-he..

Cheers…

October

Wow after I finished my internship I stop blogging for 1 month….ha-ha actually I’m a bit lazy to update but still I will find some time to write too…finishing my internship was good because I don’t have to wake up so early and go for work which is NOT PAID…I felt so relief at that time because I have 2 day classes and 5 days OFF isn’t cool but then is not a good thing too because the other few days I do not know what to do… so basically what happen in October is just assignment and presentation…. Can’t believe everything is over right now… meeting with my group mates was a bit tiring for me cause they like to set the meeting time in the morning which my brain does not function during that time… but overall was quite good and I’m lucky to have good group members…when we do our assignments we always hope to get good and efficient group members which is hard also… hmmm what else happen on October?? A hah I know… I went clubbing in Metro city for the Asia Cocktail Night with my housemate suppose to be four person end up only both of us went… he he as usual le go there see guys and dance nonstop… we got two free drinks… say about that I can’t believe their red bull is just the red bull can which I can buy anywhere… I asked the lady what free drink we got so she told us we have vodka with lemon, champagne or red bull soooooo I thought their red bull would mix with some other drink thingy but in the end is only A REDBULL CAN….but I order vodka with lemon… I loveeee to dance which I can get some guys to dance with me…. Is this call flirting?? =P anyway I just love dancing…. Yeah so that’s about what happen on October…. Nothing much happen lah because is an assignment month….

INternship - Swan Districts Football Club

Finally Grace Tan Lay Hong has officially finished her internship at Swan Districts Football Club… 20 days is really very long…I start working on 21^st August and end today which is Thursday 4^th October…. So what I say is true…time flies really fast… working there I can say is an OK for me…. Even though the working environment is a bit boring but I manage to get free nice food such as pastries, muffin, different kind of salad and the best one I ate was the STEAK…I know I know I said before not to eat beef anymore oh well probably that will be my last time to eat beef…. Experience?? Well I did gain experience working there… telemarketing, promotion campaign, use my creative ideas, data entry and all the admin work too…during work time you are not allowed to online but then I was too bored so no choice la… online is the only way to ‘entertain’ my work… I will try to go back early as in like exactly at 5p.m so I will purposely drag my work till 5 and just tell the boss saying I will continue my work tomorrow or I have finish my work so I will see you next Tuesday…ha-ha…I just don’t want to reach home late cause nowadays my campus here not really that safe…robberies, thief snatch bag etc…I also meet new people who come for work experience but mostly are gals oh man…no guys meh?? But never mind lah I finish my internship so don’t have to think about it anymore…. So I will rest for 1 week first then only start my journal and the work experience report too… my journal I just have to do some editing because I always write down my task during my working hours so that I won’t forget…. Ha-ha nothing much to write about my internship cause is just working working working working…. So that’s about it….

P.S…I’m going clubbing on Friday (5^th October 2007) time to dance nonstop and release all the stresses and tiredness…

Cheers…

Change

In one year heaps of things can happened…I agree that because in one year you have 365 days so anything can happen…I have been in Perth like nine months another 1 more month then I graduate already…can’t believe time flies so fast…I remember January I was taking my summer course then mid February I had two test, had farewell dinner with family and friends and on 18^th February 2007 which is the first day of Chinese New Year I was getting ready to go Perth..... When I reach Perth the weather was hot then meets some new friends and check out some good looking guys *tsk tsk* …. Monday was my first class 8.30a.m (my worst time) getting ready brought my CURTIN map just in case I get lost somewhere and also late for class *good achievement le FIRST time punctual for my morning class* those who take the same course as me they should know that I’m always LATE for morning class….. ha-ha~~anyway I just cut the story short la cause I want to write other things too lazy write all about my uni life… so~~~ what other things happened here?? Besides stress and tired, I felt myself changed a lot too especially my feelings towards my boyfriend…I can say this is a major change for me cause is kind of hard to let go after two and the half years together...Is not that easy to maintain the relationship for so long…. 4^th September was the date that we decide to let go each other since the relationship is getting worse…. He also thinks that I changed a lot and I still remember him saying you are not my Lou po (wife) I knew last time….. Actually I agree that too cause when I think back about the past I felt myself STUPID…. I can’t believe I did all this things and when I came here only realize this is how he treats me and I’m still okay with it?? And also we communicate quite less due to the time...and worse come to worst is lack of trust all this time I always put trust on him but ever since I step in to Perth I knew he will not trust me so no matter how I ‘REPORT’ to him I still feel he don trust me…so what is the point of continuing the relationship….I always tell myself that I hope this first boyfriend will last forever but first love does not always last and it depends….oh well not anymore…. When a human being grows older their thinking tend to be more maturely… (My English is not that good but I’m sure u guys understands what I’m trying to say) hehe…….One of my best friends is an example to me and this is what she said to me not every first is always the right one for you and when u actually find a second boyfriend u will realize that he treats u even better than the first one…. And I think is true cause she also had a bad experience and now she has a new boyfriend which treats her even better than the first one…I can see that she is really very happy compare to last time..I’m happy for her too… so I hope this will also happened to me too… after all the fuss I really feel happy because the big burden I hold all this time has been thrown far away…. Seriously I felt the relief cause even he also can’t guarantee me that he can actually carry the burden I hold… actually I should had break up with him earlier but I still give him time to change but still I can’t feel any confident from him so maybe this is my right decision to let go and let him do his own things… he also know that I suffered quite a lot and he feel hurt when hear me saying all the burden I have carried… Anyway I just wish him good luck in his career and find a right girl … even though we can’t be couples but we are still friends…

Cheers~~~~~

My September

OMG…is already end of September…time flies really damn fast…hmmm so what did I do in September…. As usual, working at Swan Districts Football Club on Tuesday and Thursday every week…I have 2 mid test and 1 presentation…say bout mid test I’m not quite satisfied about it even though I passed the it…I was expecting higher marks….n the presentation I can say is a shock for me…after this 4 years of studying in college I always get nervous in presentation and always hold notes to present but this time I just present by referring to the slides I have done and nevertheless I also speak fluent and fast English.... I know I speak fast but it doesn’t matter cause im in Australia…. People here all speak English for goodness sake…. Of course they can understand what im trying to present…even the tutor just say ‘phew’ because I was like catching a train… but what to do the presentation is only 10 minutes and I only have 2.5 minutes to present…overall the presentation is good but one of my group member is quite lucky cause he do not need to present…..U ARE LUCKY MAN….ha-ha…I also had flat dinner supposing 7 people end up suddenly another 8 people coming….but it was quite fun cause we also celebrate Mooncake Festival Party….we also made plain pinky tang yuan and with chocolate too….one more new ‘recipe’ they made is WASABI tang yuan??? Sweat~~~~ purposely made two just to made fun with them….ha-ha my fren said y so salty one…hehe I never try before so I really don’t know how it taste like…. Another thing happen was I got sore throat, cough and flu…ish I hate to get sick cause is damn suffering plus I cant eat this and that….i have to buy cough medicine cause I did not bring any from Malaysia……on the 29^th September, me and my housemates went strawberry farm…ha-ha I can tell u the strawberries are big and sweet I pluck a lot n only weigh 8 dollars…I thought I have wasted the other 2 dollars but my fren say no la u just saved 2 dollars…oopss I miscounted….hehehe…. after that I also bought 1 strawberry port and liqueur which cost me AUD 44.50 but is shared by all of us…. At night we had BBQ with my housemates…. Just wondering about something... I din know that we can BBQ MARSHMALLOWS but it was nice…ha-ha….Tuition free week on 21^st September till 30^th September…is only one week and I have been working for the 4 days…so sad….cant go anywhere…but anyway after that 4 days I left only 3 days to finish my internship….bwahahahahahaah~~~~

I think there’s about it on what happen on September….I will try to update my blog if I have the time…..

Just to let u guys know…I wrote this blog during my working time right now which is 12.55p.m Tuesday 02/10/2008
