Life: 17th December 2008

1. Living in this world itself is a very hard thing. So don't surround yourselves with pessimistic people. It will only make your life gloomier. By Nick.
2. I realised most people are selfish and "fake". Two face in other words. But in this world where people judge each other by their cover, who is it to blame for this culture? Beat it or join it?
3. Working hard in life is not equivalent to success in life. Luck is the biggest factor that determines your success in life. The rest lies in your ability to know when you are lucky.
4. Unhappy people are greedy.
5. I hate indecisive people.
6. Whatever happens in life, just smile.
7. Don't ask if you can't do anything to help.
8. Sometimes we do things for the sake of doing.
9. Lastly, by Roy, everyone tries to look for happiness in life and yet during the process they become unhappy. What for?
10. Whatever happens in life, it still goes on.

Woman As Explained by Engineer

The most excellent explanation ever *laughs*

Northern Lights

In conjunction with the Adelaide Fringe Festival, Adelaide Bank Festival of Arts decides celebrates this year by organising an event called the Northern Lights. Celebrating one of the most beautiful cultural boulevards in the world for the duration of the festival, the city's historic architectural icons will be painted with light and colored with life. Electric canvas will be used to transfer the buildings into exceptional arts. I really think this event is relatively successful compared to the weird musical drama that I attended two years ago where nobody understand any shits. Everyone's responses was like "......... okay....wats going on...." *laughs* Lets enjoy the photos

Time flies

In a blink of an eye, I am once again, back in Adelaide after a long nice holiday in Malaysia. I am quite fond of the fact that i gained 2 kilos when I am in Malaysia *laughs*. That's quite an achievement for me. A new breakthrough I suppose. Can't help to be happy.

My trip back to Malaysia this time wasn't quite productive as I like it to be. Besides lazing around enjoying things ( drama marathon, all night gaming, spoiled myself with my favourite local delicacies) that I haven't involved myself in for a long time, I was reluctant to pick up a book or two to remove the cogs from my brain. haha. Most importantly, I once again failed to score above band 7 for all categories for IELTS. Had a score of 6.5 in two of the sections. Blasted marker. Why can't she gave me a 7 instead of a 6.5. Its just a point 5 difference. So i am force to apply for the temporary graduate visa to stay in Australia. Things would be different if I am eligible to apply for PR as I would be able to take my time to cast my lines around hoping I could land a cast on the fish that I like. I can't help to feel anxious and restless. Pressure of not being able to land a job within 6 months after getting my TR is building up day by day.

Despite my desperation, an interview finally came to my doorsteps. Its from an energy auditing company which is looking for a graduate engineer to work on measures to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. My first interview was schedule last week and to my delight, they liked me and I will be having my second interview tomorrow in Melbourne. Hopefully, things will go smoothly.

Kinda looking forward to see Claire as she sounds kinda sweet on the phone..:p

Year 2008

2008. Even before it starts, I can say that this will be a very significant year for me. After years of study, I finally graduated from my course and ready to start another fresh chapter of my life. In my graduation, there is this presentation by Professoer Peter Dowd, the Executive Dean of the Faculty of Engineering, Computer and Mathematical Sciences. He says, " People who has a clear aim in life, is usually more successful than those that don't". Those words still recite within me after weeks from my graduation. Maybe its because that I know I am still far away from my aim or maybe its because that I still not know of the way to reach what I wish to achieve?

Life's been busy after graduation. Things to do just surges up. Have been busy with my Aussie PR applications as things just doesn't seem to go right which i am partly to be blamed as I didn't do the necessary preparations needed. I guess, it will still take a while before I can complete my PR application. Meanwhile, job hunting has been on top of my to do priority list. Getting no replies from mutiple job application has been more discouraging than ever. I try hard not to think about it, sometimes blaming it on the fact that they are not accepting applications from applicant without a valid working visa but I think I should accept the fact that I am not good enough. Have to find ways to improve myself.

不满意

有没有人可以告我着样才能推的动一只不会动的牛呢?

面对

常常，我都在提醒只自己， “笑着去面对”。 不要烦。 不过呢， 真的是很难。
在不知不觉中，眉头就皱起来了。

笑笑笑阿。。。。。。。。。。。。
