Whatever is done is done, it can never be undone!!!

Even if you tell yourself and everyone to let it go, deep down inside both you and others know that it stay in the heart and memory as scar that will only fade with time but stay forever.

It has become such a common and normal way for us to treat thing as it never has been in order to cover up for the real terrible truth in the reality.

Are we really been forced to do so or we are just been too cowardly to face the real truth?

I wonder...

朋友？！

每个人对朋友的定义都不同，你把他/她当成知心好友但对方却不然。人与人之间的关系太复杂了，在人际关系里一加一并不等于二，答案可以是三，可以是四，甚至等于零。

一但朋友的信任指数在自己心中开始下跌，很快的，对朋友的信任就会像山崩一样，只跌不升直到尽头。

在漫长的人生当中，有无数的人出现在我们的身边，从那无数中找寻与我们契合的对象然后把他们归类成朋友，对他们付诸信任与关心。在经历磨练中增加对彼此的了解，同时接受彼此的不同，谅解与体谅。但又有多少人做得到这一点呢？

人生有太多的谎言与虚伪，我们又能相信什么呢？

每跌一次，就觉得自己太傻太天真，但那就能成为彼此伤害的理由吗？

人们总以为要做了一些什么才能/会伤害到人，殊不知什么都不作也同样的伤人。

在此给自己与大家一句话：该做的时候就做，不该时就什么都不作。不要以为自己的想法就是对的，不要以为自己的做法就不会伤害到人。。。

River festival

It is the annual River festival in Brisbane again, this event is a big whoo-ha thingy in Brisbane. Most of the ppl living in Brisbane will be there to view the fantastic firework (even thou some of my fren comment that Singapore fire work is nicer) with their family and fren.

It is sort of like a big thing for me and my fren as brisbane is quite peaceful and slow (aka boring) and this event bring a lot of life to brisbane on that day.

Ekka Festival

The Ekka is the annual show of Queensland, Australia. Its formal title is the Royal Queensland Show. It was originally called the Brisbane Exhibition and therefore is now usually known as Ekka, due to the phenomenon in Australian English of shortening lengthy words. (Taken from wiki) If u are interested in knowing more please wiki ekka.

So basically EKKA last for 10 days in brisbane and there is 1 day of public holiday specially for this festival. The more special thing of this event is that there is one public tranport train station specially build for EKKA and only open once in a year during EKKA festival. How cool does that sound!!!

Spend way too much on Ekka just buying those show bag and rides however it is a interesting experience for me in Brisbane. Hope to get to see the thing I miss out in next year Ekka which i am confirm to go.

But anyway, it would be a entirely new experience for next year as i will be going with different ppl.

想家

来到澳洲已经将近五个月了，才刚刚回去岛国三个礼拜，一转眼又回到澳洲去念书。我常常说不想念岛国的父母，很抱歉但那是真的。人家常说每逢佳节倍思亲但我却认为那并不适用在我身上。
可当我从一回到澳洲就开始生病，已经一个礼拜了还没好，父母亲的脸就开始浮现在我的脑海里。礼拜天，我拨了一通电话给他们抱平安并告诉他们我病了，寥寥几句便挂了电话也没多想。像是冥冥中注定一般，以往我拨电回去，来电显示总是unknown.所以我也就认为没人知道我家里（澳洲）的电话。题外话：何以父母会知道我家的电话呢？原来我拨电回去的那个礼拜天，来电显示上显示了我家的电话。所以我认为是神迹！
当我的屋友敲了一下我的房门，告诉了我一声：“有你的电话，是你爸爸。”我简直就是错愕兼不敢相信。接了电话，爸爸对我说了一句：“你的病好一点了吗？能不能去上学？”我告诉他：“今天去看了医生，这几日都没去上课。”他又回了一句：“那你就在家好好的休息，好了再去上课。”我就挂上电话了。
当我回到了房里，我的眼泪就不受控制的流了下来，我趴在电脑前放声大哭。就连我在写这篇文章的当儿，眼泪也在我眼眶里转呀转。我是第一次那么的想念父母，多么像看到他们的脸，听到他们的声音。
或许生病只是一个契机，让我了解到我的父母是多么的爱我关心我。

爸爸妈妈，我爱你们！

Karaoke in Australia

This is my first experience for going to a Karaoke in Australia (some more with a Jap fren of Miss S, his name is Mr. Yasu). The place was operated by a HK company (I suppose KT shld know abt it) and located in a place called Sunnybank.Sunnybank was famously known as the second chinatown in Brisbane. There are alot of asian stores there and my hsemate and I went there occasionally if we miss asian food alot. Although it is not comparable to Singapore/Malaysia food but it has at least satisfy our crave for homely food.

The singing package we took was inclusive of a drink and a plate for food from the selected menu. However, no one told us about the limited range of drink that we can order, we asked for lemon tea. (So kena extra charge in the end...So cannot make it loh...)

All in all it was fun (becoz of the Miss S and Mr. Yasu's company) but the service sucks.

Holiday in Austrialia

During the easter holiday, i been to quite a lot of places around Australia such as Byron Bay and Gold Coast.

I went with my hsemate and their fren S and her fren who is a japanese guy named Yasu for short.

In a Sunday morning, we set off at 10am and took a train to Nerang. Then we took a public bus to surfer's paradise. The whole journey took us 3 hr to get from our place to surfer's paradise.

So a total of 6hr for to and fro from our place to there!!!What a drag!!!

We arrange to met up with S and Yasu at the surfer's paradise. The view on the beach is great and the sand is very fine and nice. There is great waves there and a lot of ppl surf there. The water and the sand is very cooling despite the sun being very shiny. We had our lunch that we pack from home there. My hsemate woke up early to prepare some honeydew while i prepare smoked salmon crossiant. What a nice picnic we had!!!



The second pic is my hsemate n i depicting Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolin in Mr n Mrs Smith. We were demostrating for S n Yasu so that they can take a pic like that.




We have a fun time at the beach taking funny pic of each other and making weird faces for the camera. I enjoy the sunny beach and seawater.

Then we spend like 3-4 hr on the beach and then we have to rush home to catch the bus. Becoz the bus service end like 9 on sunday and public holiday. But it is a nice experience all in all.

First Day & Cooking

Hi everyone,

My school finally started yesterday, I was lost in the campus when i am rushing to print the lecture notes and went to the wrong venue for the classes.

The result: enter the class 5 min before the class end. (So no face!)

My practical class ended early becoz this is the first week of school so not much thing that we can do for prac.

One of my hsemate ZW fell sick on the first day of school and since class ended early, we decided to cook porridge for her. (Since i still have not receive the rice cooker's wire that my mom forgot to put in my luggage.So i end up with a rice cooker without wire).

I have decided to cook mushroom and chicken porridge for her.

Mushroom and chicken porridge

Firstly, I thawed the chicken breast fillet on the table ( And went to catch up some nap. I end up seeing my chicken floating in a pot of water. Must be the act of my hsemate.)
Secondly, sliced the chicken and the mushroom.
Thirdly, wash some rich and immerse it in water to make the rice softer.
Fourthly, marinade the sliced chicken with white pepper, sesame oil, salt, dark soy sauce and oyster sauce and refrigerate it for half and hr.
Fifthly, boil the rice and add in the mushroom and one cube of Maggi chicken stock to add the favor. Add in the chicken last so that it can retain the taste.
Finally, boiled the porridge until it bubbles then cover the lid and let it steam for awhile.

Always rmb to stir it once in awhile to prevent the bottom of the porridge from being chao tar.

Dangdang!!! There is the nice porridge done, suitable for a sick person(just kidding, anyone can eat it)

i was unsure of the finally product but it turn out nice and sweet when i taste the porridge. But as for the chicken, it was a bit overcook and all the sweetness went into the porridge causing the chicken to taste bland.

All in all, it is a experience for me and to KT: I am sure that by the time you come, my cooking will surprise you!

Haha!!!

Water, the gift of nature

For those who is currently living in Singapore, we knew that our current source of water is

1: Buying from Malaysia at a cheap price and sell it back to them at a couple of times more.
2: A NEW Water project started a few year back and we called it shit water.
3: Producing distilled water from seawater (since we are surrounded by sea) which cost like super ex.
4: Storing the water in as many reservoir as we can. (The reservoir number is Singapore is still increasing)

We are famous for our clean water and we can drink from the tap directly without any filter.

Guess what?

I heard the same thing from the Australian driver that were fetch me at the airport. He told us that we can drink directly from the tap and i believed him.

That is until my hsemate showed us the towel that we wrap around the tap to sort of filter the water. It is brown like mud!!!

Yes, don't doubt me. It is really brown like mud and we often find black sediment at the bottom of the bottle after one night. That is when i begin to appreciate the water in Singapore since i am going to live here like for 1 year.

Another thing that amazed me is that they have a 4 min shower campaign around Queensland as everyone should know that Australia is going through the worst drought in the last 10 year. i din manage to shower in 4 min but i have tried to shower as fast as i could.

I am starting to think that maybe the Australian govt should try out the policy make in Singapore to store the water, than maybe the water will not run out so fast.

That all for the day, got to go for lecture.
See ya again!

My first cooking

I finally cook my first meal in brisbane this Wednesday. I buy the campbell spaghetti sauce and i cook the spaghetti and potato egg.

Mushroom, tomato & beef spaghetti

First, I cook the spaghetti in a rice cooker borrowed from someone and i dip it in cold water.
Secondly, I add in some mince garlic into the pan to add the aroma and then mushroom and tomato is added too.
Thirdly, I added in the sauce to mix with the ingredient to heat up the sauce.
Finally, the spaghetti is added into the pan to mix with the sauce and ingredient.
I tasted the spaghetti when i am cooking, it become hard after putting it in the cold water so i add water into the pan to soften it.
But apparently it does not work well, becoz when i eat it it is still quite hard.

Potato egg
Firstly, Sliced the potato evenly(which i din)
Secondly, cracked the egg and whip it. Add in seasoning such as salt, pepper,sesame oil, dark and light soy sauce.
Thirdly, pan fried the potato until it turn brown.
Finally, add in the egg to cook together with the potato.

The final product is sort of like scramble egg with mashed potato becoz the pan i used is very small, i just cant turn the egg over properly. I also tasted some uncooked potato becoz i slice them unevenly.

It is a pity that i did not took a pic of it but nvm i have plenty of chance in the future as i have buy the sauce again and waiting to cook it the second time.

New in a foreign land

For all those that know me and those who don'ts:

I AM FINALLY IN BRISBANE!!!.

Today is the sixth day for me in brisbane, i am going to start school next week and my major is genetics. Genetics major in third year??? I see hell coming for me.

Pardon me for not posting any pics yet coz i have taken none yet! I will if i have the chance(oh rite, as if i will) but to everyone that miss me out there i would like to take this chance to say loudly:

I MISS ALL OF U 2!!!

Especially to my labmate and dear KT & SF.

I seriously think that i am going to be slimmer when i get back coz everyone is like walking,walking & walking around here. I have no appetite for any food and just stuffed myself with what's available when i feel like it (big time problem rite?for those who know me).

I am going to West end tomorrow to immerse myself in the "wet market" culture in Australia and the worst thing is that i have to wake up at 6.15a.m in the morning to catch a ferry to that place. I have not wake up so early in the morning in the last 5 yr already. Oh my god!

May God Bless me.
