2) the so call "innocent" Shimin and her partner .. Mr Ho
3) the working bitching buddy Mei-ee and her partner CH..
4) Jerry
5) Half niang niang qiang Ben
6) Sandy's fren Corrine and Eugene..
Overall the trip to melbourne has been good in terms of personal development.. Career progression sucks ~
2 days.. I have so much that I want to do .. yet so little time.. I'm currently totally random.. and it just doesnt feel like I am leaving melbourne .. Things I wanted to do but dont have the time
1) Sky diving
2) Skii-ing
3) Horse riding
4) To go to the Grampians
5) Wanted to go Cairns to dive .. no chance liao..
and a lot more..
Maybe someday.. I will come back to Melbourne again ~
In the meanwhile.. I decided to enjoy the cold, quiet and boring Melbourn for the next 2 days .. before I go into the hot tropical Singapore..

the last weekend @ melbourne || Sunday, August 3, 2008
I actually feel amazingly busy and fulfilled this weekend .. the last weekend that I will be staying in Melbourne. Next week.. this time.. I will be at Singapore..The feeling wasnt right.. I keep having this feeling that I want more of this country.. *not the job*.. I am pretty sure I wanna leave the firm.. but.. no the country..
I need to keep telling myself why I make the decision.. let's list it down..
(1) It's a boring place.. all the place are close by 5 during weekdays .. The pace of life is too slow.. and I probably am still young to live such kind of life..
(2) I always have nth to do... coz I cant drive.. so I cant go out much.. unless ppl wants to bring me out.. so sometimes during the weekend.. I just waste it doing nth but watch TV ~ which I feel it's a waste of my time..
(3) The work sucks .. I don't think I will progress much.. learn much..
(4) I miss my family and friends..
(5) I yearn for something faster .. something more challenging .. *the place nor the job can provide me with that*
With the above reason.. I think it's strong enough that I should be gng back..
Well.. the last weekend.. I spent it..
(1) Went to the VIC market .. to buy food and nuts ..
(2) Cooked a big fest for a group of 6 ..
(3) Packing ~~~
(4) Walking around melbourne city.. hoping and wanting to remember every bits of it..
(5) Watched wicked and is totally amazed by it..
(6) Try to start blogging again ~~
Countdown.. 5 days to go.. I will miss melbourne ~~

Hi Elaine,
I've noticed that you have been sitting at my desk this week. I've just sat down and noticed that the desk in filthy: cluttered, crumbs and coffee cups. I have already highlighted this as a major problem in previous emails to the team and expect that this will be cleaned up by tomorrow.
I am happy to share the desk with you if you need it, provided you keep to this requirement. If this is not possible, please let me know and we can find alternate arrangements for you.
Respectfully,
Super bo liao~~~ well .. we are all hotdesking and seriously, the only thing that I left at his desk was ONE dirty mug.. and a couple of documents.. oh well.. after this email.. i refused to sit at his desk anymore.. i rather sit at the hotdesking area where no one claims ownership.. super bo liao ppl.. bleghz ..

monday | insomia | cool & sunny || Monday, January 21, 2008
It's 2.05am.. I cant sleep.. I have got no idea why.. Ever since I got back from Brisbane, I cant sleep well.. I have got no idea what did Ting Ting do to me...Anyway, I called in sick today.. OK.. I am not like 100% sick.. But, it's one of those days where u wake up and have a headache and dont feel like gng to work. So I called in sick.
Hmm.. just some random thought gng through my head..
Human are greedy by nature.
When I am in Singapore, I use to whine that I dont have time.. Work took up most of my time and the rest of my team is spend meeting frens and catching up with them.. Little time are left for the family.. Not to mention any hobby or thing that I would like to do..
So now that I am in Aus, I have got plenty of time for myself.. Time which I can spend to do things that I would like to do and always want to do.. but then, now I long for my frens and family to be by my side.. to do it together with me..
I miss home~~

wednesday | stone | sunny & windy || Wednesday, January 9, 2008
Doing a pretty special engagement.. which is to implement business continuity for a non-profit organisation for the vision impaired people.. so, today on the train back from Kooyong, I bumped onto one of my client who happens to be vision impaired. Looking at them on the train, I am amazed about how they managed to live life like normal being, work, travel and are independant.Looking at them, it makes me wonder.. why do I always rush my life through, why does my life revolve ard work. I have always been someone who emphasize a lot on the outcome.. rush through the process just to get things done.. I never really think about or enjoy the process, in actual fact, I never really care about the process cause I always think outcome is what is impt..
Being in australia, I have got a lot more time for myself.. a lot more time to think and stone.. and probably.. this might give me a chance to look at things at different angle.
Side track.. Saw this ad on the TV here and think it's pretty funny..
