It has been ages since i last blogged. What had i been doing last whole year 2010?

1st Semester

How did i pull through the academic year?

I remembered Elaine left me in late december 2010 to the States. I was alone for the entire first semester. not entirely by myself. I spent most of my time burrying my head in Reid library with Soon Eng. Everyday we had lunch and sometimes dinner at his place. It was odd but I was touched to have at least one company in Uni. My favourite unit in first semester was ... erm... none of it sadly. In addition to my loneliness, i did meet three new friends from China. We weren't that close but we were able to communicate at least :P

my first semester was ended on 16th June which was also the last day of my exam. I had Structural Steel Design(CIVL3111) exam. Straight after exam, i hurried to soon eng's house to shower. We(4 singles of course) had dinner at toto, a vietnamese restaurant at Vic Park.

then, i headed to the departure room. flew on tiger air to singapore and arrived on the nick of time on my brother's wedding. phew~

I spent my entire winter holidays around 5 weeks at Minsar. then i came back after it.

My 22nd Birthday Celebration: 11/07/2010

was simple as usual. I had dinner with Johnston, Johnny kua,timothy goh, siong kwong and dixon. They gave me the most precious gift ever : a real chocolate cake baked by them. :P yummy!

2nd semester started on 26th July.

We all head back to uni. Nothing much except for piles of uni assignments. heaps of them.

Elaine was back to perth. We spent most of our time in library doing group assignments. we did have a little break, hangingout in perth city as usual. I know we skipped one of the lecture to greater union, yes! we watched inception by leonardo dicarpio. It was a good movie indeed. really.

*******************************************************************************

S@m graduated in late september. His parents was here as well. so we went to Tony Romas.

*******************************************************************************

nothing much in particular happened this sem. except in october, i was elected as youth president which i am not even proud of it. president = leader = more work = more responsibility :( aint fun :(

My second semester ended peacefully; and i went home on 2nd December 2010.

all in all, 2010 wasnt that happening. maybe it was. just couldnt think.

1st Semester Exam

2011-06-08T23:43:00.002+08:00

16th June- CIVL4120 Foundation Engineering Design

21st June- CIVL4180 Transportation Engineering

its such a pain to study at this degree : 15 Deg C.

Winter Winter please go away.

My wishlist for this Christmas

2009-10-21T21:52:00.003+08:00

tada!!! an ipod touch :) where i can play sodoku everyday, everywhere.
it cost $244 For 8Gb. these days, i just realised how important my ipod is. whenever i feel sleepy in Reid Library, my ipod has been my BEST "stimulator" ,
especially after lunch, I would always feel sleepy and laid back.
once i tune in with my ipod, everything around me has turned into a new world.
oophs, should study for Hydraulics test now :( I am waiting for IRIS ep 3 & 4. its showing in Korea tonight and tomorrow night. I CANT WAIT FOR THE CHINESE TO TRANSLATE and upload it on tudou.com. :)
teddy is so quiet tonight. i wonder what is he doing out there. (pooing on my lawn again ><)

i need more time + random thoughts of the day

2009-10-19T23:46:00.004+08:00

I am behind my schedule again. I am supposed to start revising hydraulics today :( anyway, I've completed my geomechanics repot 3(undrained triaxial test); Hydraulics report 3(COE) super long, and also have my tute 11 printed. Finally, I can print my work at home... :) i hate going to uniprint. its always very crowded and time-consuming. Jess brought teddy back yesterday and set him free tonight. he's been poo-ing everywhere at my lawn :( arh!!! tonight is hartz's annual dinner. wohoo! i didnt join again this year.
as i was showering today, I wondered why would people want to kill himself/herself when there are many people out there who are struggling to live on? I can't forgive people who couldn be bothered to take care of their own life. even when your gf dump you, don't be depressed for too long. life is too short for depression. My dad struggled every minute of his life tryin to live the best and make the best out of his time. time is short. there's time when we have to leave here. why would people want to go clubbing/disco-ing? spending so much time, money and effort and eventually, you'l still feel the emptiness in the middle of the night
.Wondering if i should stay for Christmas or going home for christmas? home => Perth? Kuching? I have my own room here in Noranda, Perth; and I have another room in Stampin Timur, Kuching. hmm... I would still prefer my room back home in kuching. but sometimes i love my room here although its much smaller, but comfy. :)

ANYWAY : time is ticking. i have less than 2 weeks,
and i'm still wasting my time thinking about other ppl's business.
haha.
let's call it a day. i shall drink my MonaVie and sleep.
yawning.**

WISHLIST

jess just received a burbery handbag cost AUD700+ from her friend. hmm. it was in her wishlist. Ｉam happy for her that she gets to tick that off her wishlist this year. well, i've also got one item which was in my wishlist early this year :a pink digital sony(eventhough i was hoping to get canon) camera on my birthday ;0
the next thing i am gonna get for myself is perhaps a hp laser printer of my own!yay!!!hmm no way, i prefer 8gB ipod. or even a recorder? narh, i dont need it anymore. maybe a handmade violin??? hmm. sounds great!!! or just save up more so i can go korea next year??

i was wondering : if i chosed to go to form 6, what would i be doing right now? if i chosed to continute my A levels, where would i be now? if i chosed to study pharmacy, how would i become? nerd? haha. i wont be able to watch drama!!!!

its summer. say byebye to autumn. i shoould be changing my wardrobe soon. chuck all my winter 'dumpling' away. I am welcoming Summer by buying myself a lancome sunscreen Spf30+. its cheap n handy ($36) for 150ml from Myers.

Summer is near. its autumn now in Perth.
beautiful day, decorated with blue curtains anr rivers reflecting them.
this is a picture i took this morning, when i was driving to uni.
What have i been doing all these while.
Honestly I'm a bit disappointed with blogspot as they deleted my previous blog
without notifying me. i know i was able to retrieve it back, but... just couldnt be bothered to do so,
let the pass be gone. we should face the future, that's why our eyes are
popping in front on our face instead on back of our head.
reflections:
last sunday, was terribly sicked. sprankled my left arms after doing lawn mowing.
elaine came to my house to accompany me.
she cooked.she did the dishes, and she watched "the death note" alone.

had lunch with elaine again.
feel happy to have someone around.
Tuesday, i started to revise my hydraulics as test is on thursday.
revised for the whole day .
wednesday,finished off my matlab assignment and handed in my code and hardcopy.
Thursday: arrived in uni around 6:50am. the earliest time ever.
i was surprised to see the cleaners are still working hard in our civil pc lab.
sat for hydraulic test which weighs 20% of final assessment. tough.
then, headed off to broadway for FEREROR GElato icecream.
around 2am: back to library and started to do some research on vitamin.
it was shame. i totally forgot that i have an assignment due at 5pm, but
i've got a job interview at 4pm.
prayed hard to God. and rushed to pick up jess in the city.
when i'm home, called to Guardian to reconfirm my appoinment.
jess drove me to dianella shopping centre.
came home, feeling that i wont get the job.
i know God reigns.
if i dont get this job, i'll head home for christmas.
:)
went to watch Ups (3d) with s@m. ( but expensive tickets- $16.50 with concession)
ticket includes entrance fee + Sunny.
its highly recommended. i love it.
arrived home at 10:30pm, rushed my geomechanics assignment.

this column Rocks!!

2009-06-15T22:46:00.000+08:00

Enjoy this nice read with your cup of coffee this morning…..

Written By Regina Brett, 90 years old, of The Plain Dealer, Cleveland, Ohio

"To celebrate growing older, I once wrote the 45 lessons life taught me. It is the most-requested column I've ever written."

My odometer rolled over to 90 in August, so here is the column once more:

1. Life isn't fair, but it's still good.

2. When in doubt, just take the next small step.

3. Life is too short to waste time hating anyone.

4. Your job won't take care of you when you are sick. Your
friends and parents will. Stay in touch.

5. Pay off your credit cards every month.

6. You don't have to win every argument. Agree to disagree.

7. Cry with someone. It's more healing than crying alone.

8. It's OK to get angry with God. He can take it.

9. Save for retirement starting with your first paycheck..

10. When it comes to chocolate, resistance is futile.

11. Make peace with your past so it won't screw up the present.

12. It's OK to let your children see you cry.

13. Don't compare your life to others. You have no idea what
their journey is all about.

14. If a relationship has to be a secret, you shouldn't be in it.

15. Everything can change in the blink of an eye. But don't
worry; God never blinks.

16. Take a deep breath. It calms the mind.

17. Get rid of anything that isn't useful, beautiful or joyful.

18. Whatever doesn't kill you really does make you stronger.

19. It's never too late to have a happy childhood. But the
second one is up to you and no one else.

20. When it comes to going after what you love in life, don't
take no for an answer.

21. Burn the candles, use the nice sheets, wear the fancy
lingerie. Don't save it for a special occasion. Today is special.

22. Over prepare, then go with the flow.

23. Be eccentric now. Don't wait for old age to wear purple.

24. The most important sex organ is the brain.

25. No one is in charge of your happiness but you.

26. Frame every so-called disaster with these words 'In five
years, will this matter?'

27. Always choose life.

28. Forgive everyone everything.

29. What other people think of you is none of your business.

30. Time heals almost everything. Give time time.

31. However good or bad a situation is, it will change.

32. Don't take yourself so seriously. No one else does.

33. Believe in miracles..

34. God loves you because of who God is, not because of anything
you did or didn't do.

35. Don't audit life. Show up and make the most of it now.

36. Growing old beats the alternative -- dying young.

37. Your children get only one childhood.

38. All that truly matters in the end is that you loved.

39. Get outside every day. Miracles are waiting everywhere.

40. If we all threw our problems in a pile and saw everyone
else's, we'd grab ours back.

41. Envy is a waste of time. You already have all you need.

42. The best is yet to come.

43. No matter how you feel, get up, dress up and show up.

44. Yield.

Our Comforter

2009-03-12T09:43:00.002+09:00

I just received an e-mail from yee xi(our secretary in youth).I feel comforted after reading the passage below :)

I am weary with my groaning; all night I make my bed swim; I drench my couch with my tears. —Psalm 6:6
Recording artist James Taylor exploded onto the music scene in early 1970 with the song “Fire and Rain.” In it, he talked about the disappointments of life, describing them as “sweet dreams and flying machines in pieces on the ground.” That was a reference to Taylor’s original band Flying Machine, whose attempt at breaking into the recording industry had failed badly, causing him to wonder if his dreams of a musical career would ever come true. The reality of crushed expectations had taken their toll, leaving Taylor with a sense of loss and hopelessness.
The psalmist David also experienced hopeless despair as he struggled with his own failures, the attacks of others, and the disappointments of life. In Psalm 6:6 he said, “I am weary with my groaning; all night I make my bed swim; I drench my couch with my tears.” The depth of his sorrow and loss drove him to heartache—but in that grief he turned to the God of all comfort. David’s own crushed and broken “flying machines” gave way to the assurance of God’s care, prompting him to say, “The Lord has heard my supplication; the Lord will receive my prayer” (v.9).
In our own seasons of disappointment, we too can find comfort in God, who cares for our broken hearts. — Bill Crowder
Even in my darkest hour

The Lord will bless me with His power;

His loving grace will sure abound,

In His sweet care I shall be found. —Brandt
God’s whisper of comfort quiets the noise of our trials.

2009-02-28T17:14:00.002+09:00

i woke up early this morning, cooked Maggie mee(curry flavoured) with coriander. which tasted like HEAVEN. with my lemon+ honey tea. (lipton) which i just bought last week. :) i catched a bus at 9:57am and train to cannington. i've booked for a driving lesson two weeks ago.(as i gonna sit for my driving test this thursday.) sadly, i was advised to re-schedule my exam time :( this is because i 'm not familiar with AUSTRALIA's traffic law yet; and i drove too slow. i still need time to get used with auto car. arh!!!there are so many rules. such as, if u want to stop nearby a bus stop, you have to stop roughly 20m behind or 10m after the bus stop. besides, at a fire hydrant, u must stop roughly 1m away from it. ><>my instructor is actually VERY friendly. but the fees are NOT friendly at all. cost me $50 for 50 minutes lesson. I SHOULDNT HAVE GONE TO UWA TO STUDY ENGINEERING. but instead,i should go and become a driving instructor!!! ><

*took this at geography lecture theatre*

i am Back

2008-12-19T20:55:00.001+09:00

I am very depressed.due to some reasons, my blog is gone for no reason.blog gone = partial memories gone. however, Paul once said before in Philipians, look forward, and don't look back. i reckon this is the main reason why GOd locates our eyes in front(just below our forehead.) so for the start, i would like to post(in fact cut and paste the e-sharing i wrote for my choir this week.)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I am Jane. I just joined this choir last March. I used to have two siblings, two cousins singing in the choir. But FINALLY, they are all gone...yay!!!I’m currently studying civil engineering in UWA. And I’m happy with my course even though there are not many females in my course. However I’m getting a free laptop next year...yay (this is only for civil engineering students)!!! Besides, I’m also having my summer holidays now. Currently working casual at WACA (Western Australia cricket association) and also at MES (members equity stadium).my position is food and drink attendant. Sometimes I handle cash too. Normally, I only work for three shifts per week. In November, I was fortunate to work in two concerts held in Subiaco oval and also MES as I was able to watch the concert for free!!

That’s all about me.

And now, I would like to share a book which I had read in the past few weeks. The book is” Battlefield of the mind”, by Joyce Meyer. This book is awesome. It started by introducing the importance of our thoughts. From Proverbs 23:7 : For as he thinks in his heart, so is he...according to Joyce, the mind is the battlefield. From Ephesians 6:12 “for we are not wrestling with flesh and blood, but against the despotisms, against the powers, against the world rulers of this present darkness, against the spirit forces of wickedness in the heavenly sphere. “From here it is clear that we are having warfare with the devils. The devil begins by bombarding our mind with nagging thoughts, suspicions, doubts, fears, wonderings, reasoning and so on.

This book is mainly about our challenges we are facing in thinking what is right to think today as salt and light of the world. As Christians, we should know what condition our mind is in. According to the author, a busy and wandering mind is abnormal. We can sometimes sit in a church service listening to the speaker and really enjoying and benefiting from what is being said, when suddenly our mind begins to wander. After a while, when you “wake up” to find that you don’t remember a thing that has been going on. Even though my body stayed in church, but my mind has been at the Innaloo Megaplex watching a movie with my brother. (As he always bring me there!!)This book reminded me that the devil knows very well that Even though a person can attend church, and if he or she can’t keep his mind on what is being taught, he/she will gain absolutely nothing by being there. And we all know that the person who cannot discipline himself to complete a homework if he cannot discipline his mind and keep it on what he is doing.(this is so true when I know I should be studying but I don’t and ended up burning midnight oil on Saturday nights and thus affects my concentration on Sunday mornings.)

All in all, this is a good book and worth reading ( only cost $19.95 from koorong bookstore!!!)
