Janette's birthday celebration

Yesterday was an exciting and enjoyable day..:)) Met out with Kristen, Solong, Cheryl, Janette, Tiffany, Cheryl's brother and Calvin at Sorya (a Shopping Centre in Phnom Penh).

As you, readers would know, yesterday was 冬季，where every family would either make or buy 汤圆 to eat together. For my family, we received some from my uncle and we made some. It was an unforgettable experience for my brother (Kevin) and I. It was fun~:)) Even though most of it turned out to be very BIG ( or should I say "too" big..)~ :)) However, its always a good sign to have BIG ones~:))

Yesterday our "loveable 5" less 1 met out at Sorya to celebrate Meiyu's (Janette) belated birthday party. It was a memorable event for all of us. Well, initially we weren't able to get a meeting time and spot. However, after many hours, we finally met up. We went to the game place to play some "basketball" than we all went to sing karaoke~ (Not for Cheryl's brother and Huy). Wow... It seems like the time turned back to when we were still staying together in Singapore. :)) Well, ever since we graduated from our respective secondary school and leave Singapore, it is really difficult to meet up again. As everyone are busy with their own stuffs. All those good times that we had together have now turned into beautiful memories that are hard to be reached nowadays.

Like everyone says, after losing something that they once did not treasure, the person would start to appreciate it. This sentence fits very well in our case. In the past, when we were able to meet each other everyday, we do not treasure those time but instead, take advantage of it.. but now.. To be able to meet again is a blissful thing to us, so lets treasure it before its too late~:))

After so many years apart, everyone had grown up, each turned into different people and status. However, when we meet again after these numerous years, our attitude and feeling towards each other is still the same. These are things that I can and will never find when I am in Australia. The friendship, the trusting, the relying, the love, the fun, the joy, the jokes, the beliefs, the habits, the understanding, everything more.. Definitely cannot be found anywhere else, as we know each other too well... Growing up together, living together, eating together, going out together, sharing each others' troubles together, gossip together... everything seems to be very natural to all of us... I miss all of you~ and I love all of you.. Thanks for coming into my life, thanks for making my life so joyful and meaningful~ I will never forget and abandon any of you~! I will always keep contract with you all as you're my best friends cum buddies forever.... those that will make me smile widely... those that influence me to be crazy and want to be the joker of the group~~:))

Currently at Singapore airport T3

Now is 5.50a.m. (SIN)... Regret not bringing a jacket with me.. Felt so cold just now when I was sleeping... It was so quiet at T3... What I can see is... lots of workers sleeping around.. lols.. Well, this is my first experience spending a night in airport... (>.<) an eight hours flight from Sydney to Singapore and another eight more hours of waiting for the next flight back to Cambodia... (=.=) AND.... another two more hours of flying...

Felt so sleepy now!!! Hopefully I wouldn't catch a cold from all these... >.< Anyway, got back my results on Wednesday night via zmail... I was kinda of surprised with my MGMT marks.. lols.. but if only I have another 3 more marks then I wouldn't have to get a PASS again...!!! (=.=) Was disappointed in my accounting marks though..:((( anyway.. the other two..were kinda of expected.. overall... alright.. but not satisfied... lols..

Last day of November

In less than half an hour time, its gonna be the end of November... Wow, time flew past so FAST! If I remember correctly, when October almost came to an end, I was updating regarding to the upcoming final examination.. but now... MY RESULTS are coming out soon! on the 2nd of Dec... wow.. SCARY~ =X hopefully the results are pleasant~ :'(

Anyway, just got home not long ago~ Was decorating the store for the upcoming Christmas Special~ Wow.. To be honest, it is really a tiring job? (=.=)||| actually I did nothing much but just felt real tired after doing all those stuffs~ Its look really GOOD!~ very different from the previous 2 years Christmas that I had... (><) Well, I think all these have to go the credit of MINH~ lols... if she had not suggested, I think that it will be impossible for us to have the decoration in our store this year~ lols.. Well, I really like Minh... I wouldn't mind having her as my eldest sister-in-law.. =X Really~ I really don't mind... She is really a very nice and pleasant girl.. I believed that she will definitely be able to become a successful and caring wife~:)) hahas.. but off course.. these stuffs can 't be force..have to see the both of them~:))

Today, my brother actually agreed to employ that girl~ Well, if he thinks that she has the potential, then why not? lols.. But hopefully she will not be a disappointment.. (Fingers Cross)

Currently having some problems with the air-tickets~=.= everyone just push the blame on me!!!! Wish that I will still have my seat tml!!!

要找到你这一身的另一半是很难的事，所以一定要好好珍惜。

Do you guys believe/ heard of.... when people came to this world, they are always in pair, whereby... your the another half will be your destiny/ fated person~ to be honest, its hard to find it or its really difficult to find your another half.. so.. people who have found it, do treasure it.. As in the same world, there are a lot of people unable to find the fated one yet~

I believed that you guys would be wondering why I would suddenly update about this topic now~ well, there're a lot of people getting marry soon or even been dating for quite a period of time.. I really think that its really hard to find the right person... when you are no in a relationship, you would be wondering/ kept thinking who will be the Mr/ Miss Right in your life.... even when you are in a relationship, you would be inquiring if he/she is the right person~ and nowadays, in this centuries~ its very popular of "divorce".. so even if you get married, you would still be scared that he/she might not be the another half of your life~ hais... =,= life is so tiring~ so it would be better to trust people and let your life flows on its own.. don't need to force/ give pressure to yourself~ ENJOY LIFE~ and TREASURE whoever is beside you now.. as you would not want to lose them for a STUPID reason~:))

Thanks for the night people~

Tonight Cynthia, Minh and KL came over to my house to watch horror movie and ate home-made pizza..hahas. though i know it does not taste good but hopefully the movie did pull it off.. well..it was "the eye 10"... Well, people who knows me would know that I actually watched it before.. and what worst is that I watched it for many times already~ (>.<)

But anyway, really enjoy their company~ and... Its always nice to have ur friends to come over to your house to do stuffs together!:)) really miss those days that I used to live with my buddies in singapore~ :((

Ohyea, before I forget. I met two girls today. They are in year 10.. However, they look like in their early twenties.. I don't really want to discuss this on my blog. But what I wanna say is that, one of the girl gave me a bad impression. And due to the "halo effect", if you leave a bad first impression, its gonna be hard to change it later on. Still hopefully, nothing would go wrong and hopefully she would not be so "proud" of herself~ :))

Well, I will blog till here today~ Good night people~

老人阿，都是口是心非。

It's been a long time since I last update~ Been busy with examination, clearing the house, watching dramas and relaxing myself. hahas.. I felt like I been watching so many F4 dramas.. lols..

The first two was excellent!:)) lols.. vanness is so handsome~ lols.. Jerry so cute.. and im watching the last one now~ lols.. Episode one now~ lols.. currently home alone again. My brother was out to have some kind of "pre-wedding" dinner.. lols.. not his wedding but is his friend's sister's wedding~ wow..sound so far!!~~~ lols.. So... tonight I am having instant noodle for dinner again!~~~ This reminds me of ah bubu~ telling me.. stop eating noodle!!!! (>.<)!!! hais.. really miss her so much!~

anyway, as you guys know, now is the peak season for wedding ceremony. So, yesterday a lady and a young girl came in to buy a suit for their father. It was because, their relative is getting marry today and they came to buy a suit for their father. It was really very LAST MINUTE~ but as their father told them that he already had one, so they do not need to purchase one for him but.. he also continue saying that he like a suit in a store, so they came over to get for him. lols.. the old man is really funny. After they left with the suit, he came over and ask us if his children had came over to purchase the suit that he likes. lols.. :)) hais..

老人阿，都是口是心非。:))

Final exam just in 2 weeks time

(-.-)ZzZzZ

Examination are just round the corner, but I still haven't have the motivation and spirit to really study! (>.<) Just wanna do my OWN stuffs..lols.

Was looking at the answer for the accounting quizzes that my lecturer-in-charge just posted up. (>.<)!! Was horrible.. did not know why did I get those qns wrong! (>.<)

Anyway, its so fast! This week gonna be the last week of my semester! Unbelievable.. Speaking of the quizzes, I still remembered the first accounting quiz took place on the next day straight after I arrived Australia. (arrived wednesday, had my 1st quiz on thursday- no been to any lectures!) lols.. Was kinda of surprised that I still managed to get 4 marks out of 5 or 6? I don't know.. was doing the multiple choice qns online.. (!-!) I DON'T KNOW HOW TO DO IT! my gosh! im doom! (*_*)

anyway... its just like a blink of eye..and 13 weeks of a semester is coming to an end..(>.<) Am looking forward to it? not really..hahas.. I dunno..

kinda of too tired to further update this blog..

P.S. try to keep an eye out on those green field, garden, etc, when you catches a bus/train/on the way back home, and try to think of a positive scenario/ event happening there or even appreciate those that you get to see. You will noticed that this earth is actually very beautiful~ full of wonderful things!:))

A dream that I wish that it will be true.

Currently 6.50 am in Australia.

Had the weirdest and beautiful dream ever! I dream of him*.

I was on a camp or something, I met him there. And I was so special about it. Thus asked him, wow! Im really glad that you are still around! Then he told me that... He is actually been followed by some assassin, thus he had that show to put everyone off... Then after that, his friend help him to escape... also, he asked me not to tell anyone, not even her*..

I know... I must have watched too many movies and stuffs.. even though i know its so unreal..but i rather it to be real... Its already one year since he's gone, but I still can't let go...

Business is so slow nowadays..

my gosh!!!!! its already 3pm.. yet.. john street is sooo quiet.. i can hardly see anyone carrying shopping bags! mostly only people just walking around.. >..<>.<) I can imagine how I would look like if I didn't see anything in the next few hours! *being like a PORK MINCE!*



My gosh!!!!! Anyway, just handed in my 45% terror and religious essay. And I am supposed to start doing my legal essay which is 20% due on this upcoming Monday~. I haven't even done anything for that yet! Horrible!



Now I feel so sleepy and tired! LIFE IS SO MISERABLE!



Hoping that there will be customers that will come in and buy! IF NOT.. i realy need to turn into a PORK MIN

I am confused of what I am reading~ (>.<) "Forward with fairness"--> boring~~~!!!! feel like im having lots and lots to do~ but I just can't concentrate on anything~ >.<

**karen!!! got to focus~~~

Times really flew pass real fast! I am already nineteen years old! 6 mths later~ I will be stepping into my first Twenties age~ (!_!) *scary* anyway... i wonder why am i typing all these now!!!!

being a fool of myself

well~ i wonder..when i will be able to fully wake up from the dreams that i had been having for the past few years?~ life is short, Karen.. have to accept the fact...don't always run away from it.. yes.. face the fact! life will be much more better!

i felt like i had made a total fool of myself...i know, friends, would say.. since when Karen don't make a fool/ joke out of herself.. tat's true.. i miss the "old" self.. i wanna the "old" self back... and i know..I'm almost achieving it..but some of the things..i wouldn't want it back~ its bad side of Karen... i don't like it..

I know, u guys would be wondering what the heck am i posting..to be honest, i have no idea what i had typed.. anyway, to the people out there, have to always be honest to yourself, face the reality, don't always..run away from it.. and also, if you know that things that don't belongs to you, it will never be yours. must learn to let go~but do remember to treasure those things that belongs to you.. as they will be the most precious of your life..u will never want to feel regarded after you lost them.

Karen

I think I need to stop depending on others~ No one i can talk to.. no one listen to me~ then..just leave it..i will keep my mouth shut..

I should know..everyone is busy with their things.. eveyone have their own problem.. YES.. that true.. so...i shouldn't bother them.. I should be more understanding... but..who can be more undrestanding towards me? no one.. then..fine!~ i will left it too.. having family... = none.. having anything.. or anyone.. also = to nothing.. then.. im just nothing~

19th Birthday

These are the 3cakes that I received last friday~ Even though it wasn't the exact day (14 march) but still.. I got 3 birthday cakes..lols.. This is the first time I actually received 3 cakes on the same day! lols... The first cake is given by my brother, second by my brother+ his friends, and the pie made by Kim Song. =)) All of these taste delicious!=))

Anyway, celebrated my birthday last friday with my eldest brother's friends~ It was a unforgetable birthday party though.. Even though only 8 people (including myself) were there..But I am satisfied! =)) They actually specially planned, made a card and went to buy me, my first 'Yves Saint Laurent' Products..=)) lols.. really love it lots!=)) I am also glad that my God sister is back from Japan..and also...The REAL her that I used to know is back too~=))

I really miss him lots!=((

OH! On that same day, I received my FIRST b'day wish and present! =)) I think the person who gave me the present didn't know that he actually didn't give me an early b'day present!=)) But still, I love the present I received! Its really useful~ It brings music back to my life!=))

This year, I received quite a lot of birthday wishes from friends from Singapore, both Primary and Secondary School!=)) I am really glad that they actually still remember me!!!=)) Its always nice to keep in contact with your friends..=))

CHINESE new year and V-day

HAPPY LUNAR CUM VIETNAMESE NEW YEAR and HAPPY belated VALENTINE DAY!=)

Jason: My 4 Years old Cousin

My baby Gal Cousin~ and my aunt.=)

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

TEMPLE:

On the first day of the Lunar New year, my brother and I with the company of my Uncle's family went to WOLLONGONG, Nan Tian Shi Temple. It is an 2Hours drive there from Sydney.

It was raining heavily, yet there're lots of people found in the temple. Same as the other temple, there're always dragon dances can be found, but I wasn't interested to join the squeezy crowd.

By the way, this temple is really big. This is only the upper part of the temple, so it is quite big. (They own a BIG land for themselves, in additional, a big land in front for the building of a NEW university.--They're REAL rich!).

**************************************************************************
FOGGY~

As we are entering the long drive way back to Sydney.

When I was in the car, I feel like I had entered into a new world. It seems to be like heaven~

P.s. This post I had been attempting to finish it for 3 times, but only this time round can finish update. =) Been busy, lazy and tired to update. Apologize for it~=)

Tomorrow is Chinese Valentine day, so hereby wishes everyone a HAPPY VALENTINE DAY again~=)

Examination finished!

Hope that it does look delicious...=D Its the jelly that i had made the other day! lols..

Anyway.. I had officially finished my summer term for INFO system.... with the completed FINAL exam..=) now my holidays only have 3 more weeks left! hahas.. then~ my Semester 1 for year 2 uni starts~ =(

Now..I have to start prepare for lunar new year..which is on 14 of feb..erm...VALENTINE day too! lols.. Its a good opportunity for singles to be able to share time with your family members!=) its also a good chance for couples too..to celebrate with partner and family! lols..

This also meant tat I need to.. start washing...cleaning..the house and the store..lols..

Anyway, I am currently watching "the Illusionist".. erm..a good movie~ a prince can do anything to just be a KING! but the main character or the one who known as the "Illusionist" is really intelligent.. Uses all those scientific stuffs to be with his loved ones~ tricked everyone, made the prince dies, the chief policer loses his job! A good movie! Strongly recommend to watch!=D

Exam day is appoarching

It been almost a week since the last entry I had posted. Though its a week, but there ain't any much different. Been wasting time: talking, walking around Cabramatta, sleeping, and making desserts.

Desserts- Jelly and Yellow beans.

Jelly- considered as the successful one ( approved by quite a no. of people!=))
Yellow beans- Lack of sweetness.

Anyway..I will definitely improve on it when I next make it!=D
*******************************************************

There is a new Korean restaurant in Cabramatta, "Da Chang Jing" I know.. common name~ But the food inside is considered as "Above Average". Service- "Below Average".

Korean restaurant- not having Korean employee but Vietnamese (alright, reasonable. Since most of the population in Cabra are Vietnamese). Still, I do not really like it..as the service provided is..ain't good.. Some Vietnamese- too "UP" to themselves..( no offence) Still..in one week, I think I went there for 3 times..hahas... Their food are delicious~ tats something tat I cannot decline~

To be honest, this post is supposed to be uploaded on the 2nd of Feb, Tuesday, but..Internet was "CAP" so..yep! unable to finish it up and upload it...

Anyway, last night was watching "So you think you can dance, Australia". All those routine are real good! But the thing tat leave me unforgettable was when a Girl said this:

"One day, my dad came back and told us that he has Cancer. The day before, he was healthy. but the next day, I see him, slowly deteriorating."

Can you imagine tat? One day, your loves one came back and tell you this? Don't feel like writing anymore.

Information System exam on monday~ hopefully I will be able to get all the necessary stuffs inside my brain soon! ( haven't been studying much. )

Australian Day~

HAPPY BIRTHDAY AUSTRALIA~

Just finished showering not long ago~ *feeling much more cooling* Anyway, today, its 37degrees~ (x.x)'''''''''' so hot!!! and boring~~~~ today aint any different from normal day to me~ even though today is public holiday but there ain't many ppl in cabramatta too.. i think its due to the celebration in CITY and also..HOT WEATHER~ people would rather stay at home and have their air-con on and relax..lols..

Today.. was so quiet and...CRAP! there're people walking into our store..but those are people who just LOOK and TRY~ (=.=) or even worst..just here for AIR-CONDITIONAL~ which made us really pissed off~

Well, today I cooked a pot of SOUP~ lols..instead of purchasing Pork, I got Beef... (-.=) I really want to cry~~!!!! but at least.. my brother helped me and asked me to cook it for one more hour~ lols.. and it turned out to be GOOD~ beside..a little salty~ =P I will definitely keep improving!!!=D

Erm~ this made me wonder~ Am I actually having information system or cooking exams in 2 weeks time? hahas.. I haven't been touching Info system eversince last wednesday~ but been in the kitchen since that day~hahas.. Tsk tsk..i think i really need to start doing something for INFO system~=)
