The End

I think I have not update this blog for awhile, and I am sure I won't have the time to write anymore (excuses).

So I am declaring this entry as the last entry for this Live Your Life to the Fullest blog. This does not mean I will not live my life to its fullest, just I don't have the time and strength to write it anymore.

Just a quick update before I go off forever, I recently got a PhD scholarship from CSIRO! Hence I will be heading to Brisbane at the end of this month. So the mean time, I will be busy with my life, to even write this (excuses again). I will definitely miss Melbourne a lot, especially the St Kilda beach and the wonderful people in this magnificient city...... But I have to go wherever my dream brought me to.

There are so many stuffs I wanted to tell, but I will leave them for you to ask me personally (for those who knows me).

Finally I would like to thanks those who supported me throughout the thick and thin, through moral support or financially (I don't think anyone did for the latter one). Thank you so much for listening to my ranting, in real life or over here in the blog, or both.

So till then,

Goodbye/Ciao/Adious/Sayonara/Au Revoir

Living On Your Own

After being away for so long, I finally get my arse to write something better and nothing about job hunting. Yeah, put that aside, people have heard enough from me the past few months.

I am actually going to ramble about the ability to live alone or on your own. Not a lot of people can do that. A lot of people are dependent or just like to stay in their own comfort zone. After staying on my own, I am those other people who can't live with their family anymore. Dread the idea of having to explain everything that I do/did to a second person. This is something I noticed that those people who can't live on their own seems to have very childish cute ( I am being polite) behavior. Example?

1. Don't eat anything that has bone. Need your mommy to de-bone them before you can put them into your mouth.

2. Complain on the weather being too hot while still wearing jeans at home. Or just plain sulking and complaining for no apparent reason. Okay, I might complain nonstop sometimes, but I always look for solutions and way to solve the problem. So there is different between plain complaining and complaining without thinking.

3. Cooking by the mean of zapping up frozen foods from the fridge and maybe some juice. Yeah, you will get all the nutrients just by the juice itself! What a good idea.

4. Spend money without thinking, i.e. camera, lifestyle, clothings, and etc.

5. Drink water upon asked/yelled by your mommy. Don't you think you can go away with not showering, and sleeping.

6. Oh waking up only when the sun shine onto your arse. Or with your mom shrieking for you to wake up. I am not saying it for certain days, but almost everyday. Asking parents to wake you up is slightly too pampering. If you can't wake up for the interview, then too bad. The fault is at yours.

7. Most of the wrong-doing is not your fault. Yeah, so NOT your fault.

8. I don't know what to say anymore. If I do find someone who is like this, I might add to the list. So for now, that will be it.....

And why I hate to stay with my relative (here comes my complain again, run away before you are traumatised by what I have said

1. I hate my freedom being restricted. I know when to sleep, and when not to sleep. I don't need you to yell at me to go to sleep. I definitely don't want you to do so.

2. I hate the fact my privacy is invaded every hour. Something to do with freedom, but more specific. I don't want you to walk into my room to see me watching porn (that has not happen yet).

3. I don't like people questioning everything (those nitty gritty stuffs) that I do. I know something they might not be up to a certain standard, but this is what I want it to be done. So be it.

4. I hate reporting my work to another person (those nitty gritty stuffs again).

5. This is the worst one. I hate being treated like a child. I am a young adult now, I definitely don't want to be treated like a kid. All the curfew and restriction could drive me nuts to the core.

But I guess everyone has to adapt for the time being. Those homey kid will have to adapt to their independent life and mine has to adapt to this caged life (for the time being).

Happy Chinese New Year

Just came back from a reunion dinner with my aunt's side. Very full and could not bother to write any cover letter or resumes, so might as well write this blog which I have abandoned for awhile..... Yeah, the banquet was awesome! Lobsters (I reckon it is only crayfish, I am not going to tell you the different between lobsters and crayfish, to the Australian there are differences), prawns, scallops, etc etc. I am sure my cholesterol level is up to the roof right now..... Better do some exercise tomorrow....

I am sorry guys for abandoning this blog. I have been trying hard to get a job and anything on the way. So I don't have much mood to write anything because I have been writing almost everytime I appear offline. Besides, being addicted to MSN, and people keep messaging me it is not a good thing AT ALL.

Before I forget, Happy Chinese New Year! I am still in Melbourne, not going back till March (when Chinese New Year is long gone). To me it is another day. But I am still a Chinese regardless where I am. I will still try to practise what I was told to since I was young. Something to hold on to before I lost myself completely. Which won't happen, that's for sure.

Okay, I am going to chat with more hot people. Yeah, the weather now is so hot, everyone is hot! Hahahaha. Till then, I am not sure when, but till then! Please hug on your own huggies and wait for my new entry (which could be soon or forever).

A New Year with a Bang

It is definitely more than A Bang. A few bangs actually! But these stuffs are too raunchy for this pure and innocent blog of mine. There are heaps of people who think that 2008 is bad. A lot of people experienced their worst (if not worst of the worst) time of their life in 2008. If I were to start complaining, I reckon my 2008 is not as bad as some other people. Who lost their love one, and/or their daily income with 10 mouths to feed, or both.

I suppose finishing my Honours degree is one of the good event. But things just went down hill later at the end of 2008. Heaps of mates said that 2009 is a new year, that this will be a better year. But is it? I am not sure myself. My future is not bright enough to tell. But it is only a matter of time (so I would like to think). At the same time, this bleak time has brought me some of the unexpected gift that I am so grateful for. These unexpected gift is not a pot of gold. It is a group of friends and family to be exact. Of course I know mates are quite important to me, but these time, they are the one who encouraged me to keep going on, not to lose hope and faith. I would like to think so, my patience is kind of running low though. Another unexpected gift is about myself, which I have said the past entry (too lazy to link it, so find it yourself).

Everyone is saying 2009 is a better year rite.

I would just like to look at the optimistic side, which I can hardly do it. I know all I need to do is to lift my head up and look at the blue summer sky when I am down. Hoping I can reach the sky while I am barely walking on the surface.

Oh no, a new year with a quite emotive entry....... I hope this year won't be an emo year for me. I am just too tired, end up being emo because I did not have enough sleep last night. I was partying hard and had only a few hours of sleep. I need to stay awake until maybe 10.30pm because I do not want to wreck my 2009 sleeping pattern......

Happy New Year mate! I hope it will be a wonderful and joyous year for all of you!
