Again, this has very much became my monthly post it seems!
What have I been doing for the past month! Gosh. I don't even have my heart with this blogspot like before anymore! How come! Sigh, I can't seem to find time or should I say, I can't seem to find things to blog about.
Spent the whole Sunday downloading Chinese songs and discussing old songs with King. LOL!That fella really cracks me up. He never fails to pass me good old songs! hahaha like Super duper old that sort! Perhaps my grandma's era but yet nice songs! One heck of an old fella! :)
August! August! August! It is ending like pretty soon but I have to say, it has been a very productive month for me. Filled with many beautiful surprises.Mom and Dad was here earlier this month. Had the most fantastic time for quite a long while now. Had so much of good food andgood time. Short trip to Adelaide meeting Enzo & family was awesome. Checked out theirbeautiful beach-side-holiday-home; fully equipped with a nice kitchen, room space, gameroom and a boat! Definitely a happy month for me this year. Here's a sneak peek of Adelaide.
Us at the peak of Adelaide.

This is just one of the many dishes of good food we had in Adelaide :)

Nice accommodation I would say
Quite a spacious living hall
Best part! A Jacuzzi outdoor on the 16th floor overlooking Adelaide town ;)
I don't know why but this time i'm back here working in Aussieland, I realized that I misses home even more than my uni days! I can't seem to find the connection I used to have with this city/country anymore.
Its either the sign of aging OR the company I used to have in Melbourne. It's no longer the party party party lifestyle, but instead I have been living a very very domesticated lifestyle. It's all about work, coming home, cooking, have pot lucks, picnics, gatherings, dinners...it just ain't the old YeeLeng anymore! I haven't partied for like the longest time ever. Not even tempted to party or drink like before. Arghhhh is this a good sign or bad? I start to question myself and until today, I still can't seem to find an appropriate answer to the changes in my life.
I honestly enjoy a much quieter lifestyle now. No more bang bang bang kind of lifestyle. No more dramas. No more crying out loud nights over silly relationship problems. I seek a different pace of life now. I think of different things now. I aim for different achievements now. I think about my career path. I think business. I think family. I think settling down. I think about learning how to appreciate family and friends around even more. I do think a hell lot don't I? Hahaha, oh well...part of growing up. Never too late to pick yourself up at any point of life and have self-improvements.
I really do miss home alot now. As I type...I cannot stop thinking how much I miss home. Having your family around you is one of the best feelings ever. The opportunity to travel together is even better. My parents & sis are going to Shanghai for the expo this Hari Raya. I was meant to join them, but I decided to save all my leaves for a longer trip back for CNY. A festive season that I cannot miss. What's more when my dad's birthday falls in that month and my cousin LiLi's wedding as well. Ooooo and darling's promise to take me to Bali for a getaway as my 2011's b-day present. Haha, I am definitely looking forward to that. Have to say no to the expo, as much as I'd love to go.
As much as I miss home, like YueWeng said...with very advanced communication technologies nowadays....with Facebook, Whatsapp...you'll never feel as far away to home like before. I have to say Whatsapp has definitely bring me alot closer to home. With the video technology, Skype, webcam etc...gosh, I feel almost like home again! I am here in Aussieland for a purpose! A very well purpose. So, hang on there YL! It's probably just 1-2 more years and for the sake of keeping your PR! You can do it girl! Self-motivating is the key to happiness! :)
Let's look on the brighter side! Dad got us a new car when he came here earlier this month. A totally unexpected and spontaneous decision. An impulsive purchase I call it. Dad drove the car to Mt Dandenong and came back saying that he thinks that our 4-year-old car is not "that" good anymore. So, mom and I happily went shopping with the bf, bro, dad and my uncle went "car-browsing". Little did I know that their 1hr "car-browsing" ended up into a "car-purchasing" day...LOL! It was literally like a decision made in 60mins kind of outing...hmmm can't complain. Cos we've got a new car! So thank you mom & dad! :)
Time to bid farewell to my white baby and say HELLO our black baby! :)
My favourite part of the new car! It's speedometer!
The bro and I bought a new iPhone 4 too. Dad, sis and bro bought iPad as well! So just imagine. We Apple-maniacs! hahaha my iPhone 3G I have to say is still pretty good, but I just couldn't resist the iPhone 4. Ooooops. Life is meant to be colourful ma...isn't it? hahahahahahahaha got myself a new bag too. It is definitely a colourful August but also a spendthrift month. New phone. New bag. Mom's present. Sister's b-day!
Really gotta start saving up for our trip too! Darling and I are thinking of renting one of those villa's in Bali. Really hope that our trip will be happening. Still quite a number of things to plan and think of.
Let's keep it up and look forward!!!!! Work hard. Save money. Work towards my dream and our goals :)
Alrighteys. Hopefully the next time I'd update is not 1 month later. I'll try to keep up and update as frequent as I could. I know I say this on every blog post. But I will honestly try my best.
So, stay tuned peepz! :) Take care & enjoy life!
