W.O.R.K.

After working 2 concsecutive days, with 7 hours each day...I am feeling tired.

Yesterday wasn't bad, Boxing Day mah~ public holiay and most people went shopping.

But today was nuts. I've always knew Saturday is a busy day, but it was just crazy today. Customers all came into the shop in the LAST hour at 4ish, and I was the only staff on the sales floor ( There was another staff at the register)... With heaps of new scripts coming in, those that were waiting to pick up their medications were getting impatient. They complained about the long waiting time, and was asking rudely "why does the phrmacist have to re-check it again when she has done it?!"...Dude, this is for your own safety reason =S

Been having retarded nose for the whole day!!! and my feet hurt. Plus I stupidly cut my finger with PAPER ....and..oh yeh =S....and I bang my hand on the register which gave me a nice cut and bruise. What is going on with me today -.-"

Another 5 hours tomorrow.
Then Tuesday 30th Dec from 10-5pm again
New Year Day: 10-5pm
Following Friday 2nd Jan:5-9pm
Saturday 3rd Jan: 10-3pm
Sundy 4th Jan:10-2pm
Friday 9th Jan: 5-9pm
Saturday 10th Jan/ last shift before I leave Melb: 10-3pm

nice timetable...at least I am keepng myself busy, let along i am half dead by now...

Merry Christmas!

Finally got to open all my presents!!! My patience seems to be better than I thought…*maybe?*

Didn’t really celebrate this year but it was more like hanging out with my friend and had lunch in her house. Dumplings and fried noodles! And nope, I didn’t made them =P Yeh anyone that know “MLCC” knows that she is hopeless in cooking…


Lol, this random grumpy old lady with funny purplish-pink hair appeared on TV for no reasons!

We watched a movie in the house and we went out to a park for a walk. I didn’t know it was so close to IKEA! See, this place is so pretty and peaceful…


OHH~ and this is Andi's little mouse...so cute =] I was too scared to hold her tho >.<

After burning off some of our energy, we decided to give ourselves a small reward! Yes! Ice cream :D plus one of my FAVOURITE snacks - CHESTNUTS >3<

hmmz…ladies in our group in vcp, we all know how much yoyo loves Super Junior-one of the member, KI (Potassium Iodide or Kang-In<>, depending how well you understand it =P )…so yup, we watched the 1st Asia concert dvd. Great dancers and singers!
Tram back to Boxhill and caught my bus back to East Donny, then pick up my car n drove to Bev's house for yummy Tiramisu...I should learn too~ then by the time I got home I was so full.

I am not looking forward for the coming weekend at all...Working tomorrow from 10-5pm...then Saturday from 10-5pm ( that will be SO busy! I can predict!)...Sunday from 10-3pm...then omg Tuesday from 10-5pm again...

Just want time to pass faster! Now I want to get out of Melboure.

> 1 days!!!

Its Christmas Eve today.

Ever since I was young I deem Christmas as the happiest festival of the year. Those good old times…when we had parties in school, when we had school play, when we swapped presents, when we sang Christmas carol; it seemed that the air is full of joy of Christmas.
But now, for the first year ever; I am feeling so different.

Coming all the way to study…Being alone in Melbourne…It had always been a path that is set for me since I was young. It had always been my parent’s plan. Yes, I am thankful and happy about the decision. And the price which I have to pay that is, yes, being alone here; learning to be strong and independent. Good or bad? Depends on how you look at it =] I would say I am pretty happy to be here with freedom; let alone I used to lie on bed everytime I arrive Melbourne from Macau , “Why am I here?”. But now it seems that I’ve found something that I truly look forward to in Melbourne, maybe not now yet…but I am sure this time when I return to Melbourne in 2 months time, I would feel different. Positively.

Even though on any ‘special days/festivals’ I tend to feel a bit empty…I mean, looking back into the memories, the times I had with my family and friends, the way we celebrated each festival, whether they are chinese or western…There were so much fun. And now it seems that those times won’t come back anymore.

Memories…

Moving on to merrier things!

I went for my pharmacy's Christmas Eve breakfast at 8am today! omg had such a bad sleep ( was planning to sleep at 11pm but my mum called my twice after 11:30pm to place their 'order' of what tey want me to buy -.-") but I am glad I got my energy back thro my 2 hour afternoon nap =P Apparently everyone that went got their pressie besides ME...why? becoz, my 'secret santa' were LATE...so I will onyl ot my pressie on Boxing Day when I go back for work~ After that I drove to The Pines and got the 1o packs of chocolate for my mum...then I took the bus and headed to Boxhill again to get those Creams for my relatives (15boxes!)...then back to Westfield AGAIN, to get a Parker Pen for my dad as present...now I basically finished all th shopping for overseas! and I am 101% BROKE!

Yes its Christmas tomorrow…or maybe I would say, in a few hours’ time! That one and only present which I was told NOT to open till Christmas morning…I can finally open it SOON =] I can’t believe I didn’t cheat and open it earlier -.-” I mean, I opened all my presents and then wrapped them back, so I will reopen them again on Christmas~ yeh but EXCEPT for that one and only present!
And tomorrow I will go to my friend’s house. At least I have a friend that can spend Christmas with me! Thanks yoyo~

Merry Christmas my friends! No matter where you are now, enjoy yourself and I wish that it would be an awesome Christmas for you all!

2 more days...

Melbourne always has funny weather...It was bloody 35 yesterday and today it dropped back to comfy 21 =] I would say this weather is awesome! At least I won't feel annoyed,retarded and tired without air-con...

Been to Westfield two days in a row...Yesterday I did so much shopping. Right if you want to ask whay dont; I get my shopping done on Boxing Day, I am 'pleased' to announce that I am working 10am-5pm on 26th Dec...well, I don't mind working on that day anyway..It's public holiday and the pharmacy shouldn;t be busy.

So I brought SO MANY stuff....got a lot for mum, dad, sister and other relatives....and yes, my parent's friends too =S

"Buy 15 boxes of chocolate back, arh Ting ( my cantonese name)...dont; bring anythig clothes back..so you will have more space in you luggage....then u can fit all teh chocolates and lollies..." ....-.-" oh mum....you might not realise that 3 packs of 1kg Nougat lollies are occupying HALF of my luggage already! another 15 boxes of chocolate...-.-" oh yeh...I am basically buying stuff for my mum n dad so they can give to THEIR friends and most IMPORTANTLY, i dont; get my $$ back...

that's why I am broke.

So far I am spending more than i earn ( for December)

My budgeted revenue <>

Hence, it is a NET LOSS...

* oh my beloved accounting skills... >3<*

Today I met up with my high school friends at Westfield and we had coffee n cake.

Ohh...Look what I;ve got!!! yeh...a super mage cute giraffe neck pillow.

P.S: Yuki....where are my fotos with this cute giraffe? Pls send them to me =]

AND yes, this stuff is going to be one of my hand-carry and YES i will bring it to China..then to Macau...then to HK..then to europe..then back HK...then back Macau..then back China...then back Melbourne! At least it will keep my neck in place during my flights and travel. Hm...lets hope mum n dad won't kill me when they see me cuddling it, n walking out of the airport...."Grow up! You are nearly 20!!" ..I bet they will say that!...nope..i dont; see what's wrong with cute stuff like soft toys and pillows!

4 more days...

It’s a sunny and hot day after all…

And seems that I haven’t been working for so long! Today I was up dispensary with Larry…It was so busy. Wasn’t too bad, it’s manageable =] After that I shopped in my pharmacy for stuff like moisturizing creams for mum and dad…yeh everyone, I am leaving *only* on 12th January, 09. I wish I had booked earlier.

Stayed at home afterwards and finished off my Korean drama “Behind the White Tower”. It is one of the few *very few* dramas I’ve watched that is NOT a love story. It is more a drama about doctors in hospital trying to get into the positions they want. Pride, Fame, Money…And because of that, patients care is no longer the first priority as health care professionals. Very pathetic. I spend around 4 days to finish all 20 episodes. Was great coz I got something to entertain myself =] Plus, I still have a few interesting dramas/TV shows in my hard drive waiting for me to finish!

Don’t care la…I need new glasses anyway, wont; make a difference by now =P

4 more days till Christmas….
I am never very patient…and I am told not to open the presents till Christmas morning (Traditionally its Boxing Day morning right=P shuuushh =P I don’t want to wait one more day!)…I am so tempted to pull off the sticky tapes! I would be honest and say this is one of the biggest tests on my patience so far. Especially when that golden bag is right infront of you!!! And on it there were handwritings “Do not open until Christmas morning”…BACK AND FRONT!!!

So tempted…

Self control….

Finally...

Finally...a time that i wished i would never need to face...had come...I've always knew I am bad at handling goodbyes...but never knew I am that awful this time.

When you really love something or someone, you might grab it a little too tight...beacuse you don't want to let it go. In this holiday, I think I did, pushed it a bit too hard. Even though you do understand what you should do and what to expect, sometimes you could be easily blinded by your own thoughts. But I am glad it all worked out in the end. The most important thing is that we know what we want, and we know there is a balance point for everything. It is not like when you don't see each other as often, everything will change. If it is a true feeling, then it won't collapse that easily. I've always believe in it.

It is always a blessing to have someone who understands you and knowing what you want and need...knowing how to work together and have faith. I am feelng lucky, very contented and I am thankful...

So let these months be a little test...which is going to make us stronger... its not goodbye.

18th dec

Its the 18th of December already....

I slept for 12 hours straight last night...I reckon its the night with most sleep ever since holiday has started. I always think sleeping is a waste of time...They said 1/3 of our lives are the time we spend in sleeping....which means, on average we sleep 8hrs/24hrs a day...or 2.3 days/a week ...or 10 days per month...or 4 months per year....letssay i am that lucky and live till 80 years old, I would have spent nearly 27 years sleeping. Imagine using all those time doing something more productive...more meaningful...

And now sleeping sometimes is something I do when I want time to pass quicker...

I dont; like the feeling of lying on bed awake alone, especially on a gloomy day...my own thoughts can always trap me and get me lost...like today...

and today I don't think I can take slow music...

Girls Day out!

Again, I am not updating my blog everyday =P

But today I caught up with some of my high school girlfriends in the city! We were meant to meet under the big yummy ferrero rocher tree in MC as ferlene had commanded..

..neh too crowded tho...It's a nice tree! Me and my friends were wondering how cool it would be if it was made out of real chocolate....who cares about diet and diabetes now!I'll worry about those later!

And we went to Don Don for lunch..the jap 'resturant' which is quick, effective with yummy food! Dockland was our next stop...was meant to check out the new shops, I thougt I havent; been there before..but half way tho our journey Iralised I had been there before with my friend a month ago =S sigh~ memory is retarded!

We were SOO full after eating 4 short stack pancakes at pancake parlour, and for me and yuki...we had extra ice chocolate and ice coffee...yeh...i felt very...contented and full...most importantly...I couldn;t move after all the food!

Afterall it was a fun day out...just bumped around and at least I dont; have stay at home and become a stone =]

So holiday so far...hm...I am working on Nobody dance...getting there getting there..takes time. Also I am trying to think of what to get my dad for Christmas...any ideas?

Its mid Dec already! time really flies....

and for some reasons, I don't want this week to be over...

If I could have a power, I wish I can control time...

or actually, do I really want to?

Its gona be friday again

Week by week, day by day...time is flying away.

Its mid December already.

Sometimes when I am alone, I really wish time can pass more quickly. Ths holiday is too long.

My eyes are tired but I dont; want to sleep....

Friday...working again...

A late update

Sorry...!! I really have to apologise to you guys that...well..i have been pretty lazy lately, not really updating my blog >.<" Holiday is driving me a bit crazy coz I am losing track of time!

Anyway...Its december!!! AGAIN!

I don't now if I should be happy or not.

Yeh Its Christmas, but everyone had left...ok most people!

I hate the feeling of boredom...so i decided to work more in my pharamcy during the last weeks of december and start of janefore I leave n the 12th. Its good to have somethig which keeps me busy, but hopefully not too busy.

This week I had been going out shopping and bumping around!...visiting my friend at work ( ANDI and the yummy milk shakes! )...did some X'mas shopping at Westfield Doncaster...went to Sandringham beach too! That wasn;t a very hot day, which is good for ME! at least I wasn;t very tan by now....havent; turn into dark chocolate *yet*. But I would say it was a nice day out to relax on the sand=] hmm, the water was so salty tho =S next timeI will bring my goggles!

and then yesterday night it was my pharamcy's chirstmas dinner. It was nice! I guess its my first time taking part in social events liek that...but at least I know most of the people there =] oh yeh ..should mention I stuffed sth up as well...I was thinking it would be...erm..a semi-casual-semi-formal-ish event...but turns out it was more liek a casual event...so, basically We dressed semi-formal...it wasnt; my fault tho. Don't blame me! Nice food tho! We had salad and some seafood for entree...veal and chicken (YEAH chicken! lalala~~ -.-") for main..and tiramisu and icecream (which somebody said one of teh scoops taste liek curry) for dessert...

Worked today....kinda tired but it was alright coz I had a cup of coffee beore work! yeh coffee~.(It is for the benefits of the patients ok!?)but coz it was theisant coffee I made, i didnt; get hyper like I usually did in lecture hall for early lectures...

Tomorrow is ...going to be anoter happy day =]
