I'm living my dream everyday.
Where does the time go between goodbye and hello? | Thursday, March 17, 2011 @ 7:38 PM
It's a long, long journey
'Til I know where I'm supposed to be
It's a long, long journey
And I don't know if I can believe
When shadows fall and block my eyes
I am lost and know that I must hide
It's a long, long journey
'Til I find my way home to you
Many days I've spent
Drifting on through empty shores
Wondering what's my purpose
Wondering how to make me strong
I know I will falter, I know I will cry
I know you'll be standing by my side
It's a long, long journey
And I need to be close to you
Sometimes it seems no one understands
I don't even know why I do the things I do
When pride builds me up 'til I can't see my soul
Will you break down these walls and pull me through?
'Cause it's a long, long journey
'Til I feel that I am worth the price you paid for me on Calvary
Beneath those stormy skies
When Satan mocks and friends turn to foes
It feels like everything is out to make me lose control
It's a long, long journey
'Til I find my way home to you

Hi to one and all!
I'm starting to show signs of home sickness, love sickness and a uni-phobic.
J mentioned that he will be visiting me if he gets a block leave to clear in April! Aww...But I don't wanna be too hopeful here and set myself up for disappointment at the end of the day. The mere thought of his intention to make a trip down under -for the 80907th time- to visit me is enough to make me feel warm and fuzzy inside. Ok, I must admit that I'm lovesick.
I just wanna reiterate for the one millionth time that J is perfect for me because he is such a selfless lover with hardly any ego issues. Girls, never find a guy who is egoistic because he will always put his own interests above yours. Your worries and frustrations will always take a backseat in his life while he is only concerned about satisfying his own desires. That being said, J can be a terrible boyfriend when he walks into the house, lazes on the sofa and expects me to entertain myself. But after all these years, I have learnt how to help myself to the snacks, water, computer and viv's wide selection of nail polish :D I guess...Love is really about seeing the perfection in someone's imperfections?
"Where did you get this snack from?"
"Wow, you even know where all the snacks are? I don't even know that we have this snack in the house!"
I can talk shit about J since he doesn't bother to read my blog. Hahaha

I miss my girlfriends quite badly too. Haven't been catching up with them properly since I returned because of our conflicting schedules and the horrible three-hour time difference.

I'm glad to catch up with my mom yesterday. She always reminds me to do the same old things: 1) Eat my vitamins, 2) Cook good food, 3) Don't stay up so late to chat on the Internet
But yes, I know that mommy dearest has my best interests at heart :)

Recent photos from the past week, enjoy.
Ness & I at Makan Night
First housies dinner together!
Sylvia & I
Amy -half a housemate to us cos she's always over to hone her culinary skills in our kitchen- and Laura
One of my favourite Chinese cuisine dishes in Melb - Fried Shanghai Noodles (And no, they don't look wormy, neo!)
First attempt at making prawn porridge - It was a success, if I may say so.
I shall not attempt to write too much in my exhausted and incoherent frame of mind. I can't quite decide if I am enjoying my final year units this semester. Japanese L3 is proving to be a real challenge because I have forgotten so much of my L1 & L2 syllabus. Journ: War & Conflict is a unit with many interesting readings. I shall not bore you guys with further details.
I will be reviewing a lovely jumper from Foggiare soon. Stay tuned :]
The weather is getting colder and I'm reminded of the cold and lonely nights, which I spent holed up in my room bingeing on Tim Tams and chips last year. Let's hope that history doesn't repeat itself too often this year round. Keep warm, all you Melb kids :)
P.S Thanks Queen Qixin for helping me to neaten my blog layout :]
P.P.S Nerd mode!!! Refer to opening photo.
