really enjoyed my family's stay here in melbourne. they left this afternoon. it was so rush, didnt say a proper goodbye. feeling lonely suddenly after they left. well, going back to spore on sat. got to take my ILETS there for my PR application. was so troubled the last few days, trying to fill in PR applications. so difficult to understand. worried i cant go back, because cant lodge in in time, etc etc etc. really thank God that i am able to go back home for a while. but haven found a place for next yr yet, sigh...
went Great Ocean Rd and Philip Island over the weekends. it was very gd. will miss those times together with family. who knows when my parents will come over again. after my bro graduates in 6 yrs time?? haha.

GRADUATED!!! got that piece of paper!! the day i been waiting for finally arrived. i still rem taking kinder graduate pic many years ago, today was the real thing, except no hat to throw, haha..it was a hot hot day, but luckily there was breeze now and then. at first i thought i didnt hv any friends, but it was alright, met some there. lee-ean came all the way down though she was not feeling well too. thanks babe! (btw was so touched when i read the card u wrote in the penguin box) anyway took a lot of pics, with and without me in it. the ceremony was quite long and b.o.r.i.n.g. well, we were sitting in the first row, so could see everyone and all their little gestures. that was the only interesting thing. first row means last to go up to get our piece of paper. i liked the last part when we were walking out. it was a gd feeling. ended the day with a nice dinner at a chinese restaurant. was caught in the rain. family too lucky to get caught in the rain, hahaha!!!
on the sidenote, i dont feel so stress anymore. it is strange. things seem a little brighter now. yeah, ur prayers are great, keep praying for me.

family here for a few days now. love the feeling when i dont hv to pay for anything when we are out, haha..the feeling of having family over was supberb the first few days, after that, the nagging begins. i guess no matter how old we are, we are always little kids in our parents' eyes. non-stop nagging from mum abt accommodation, job, PR stuff. need to worry abt so many things. did not have enough rest since exams, so finally fell sick. was planning to go Mt Dandenong today, but because i wasnt feeling well, so trip was cancelled. looking for to Great Ocean Road trip this weekend, hopefully...
i might not be going back home after all, but everything's not confirmed. well, coz of job, PR stuff and accommodation, too many things to worry abt. i will be a lonely soul here in melb =( and hopefully juen will be staying back to keep me company after my family leaves, haha, so evil of me to think this way.
graduation tml. very mixed feelings. my future is very very very dark. i dont like this feeling of not knowing what to do next. pray pray pray.
just realised tt my parents look so solemn, LOL!!!

came back from OCF convention yest. my first ever convention. enjoyed myself quite a bit. so many ppl from all over aust. all the ppl i met are so friendly. maybe it's because we all share a special bond, which is having Christ in our lives. i think i enjoyed myself because there are so many of us from OCF carlton who went. it's like a comfort zone for me. oh...meals there are quite bad. first few meals were not bad, but it became really bad. we had western meals every day, no rice or noodles, juz potatoes with PEAS (yucks), corn n over-cooked beans. mashed potatoes, baked potatoes, chips, argh....we were all craving for real food. finally one night there was rice, but the rice was so wet. sigh, it was juz bad lah..nv knew i love chinese food so much. another thing i dun like abt camps is the bathrooms. dun like using bathrooms outside. actually i m lazy to type more. juz look at pics. when i m free n not lazy, i will try to add more abt convention. haha. lots n lots of pics, i like..too bad for those who are using dial-up. family reaching in another few hrs, exciting.
