20 November 07.

最近心情有點複雜，好久没写blog了…工作很忙，因爲圣诞节快到了再加上我剛剛提升為Customer Service Supervisor,工作份量自然增加，压力也只增无减….這樣也好，让我沒有多餘時間想其它….以后要在那裏發展，我其實也沒有答案…是不是很沒用呢？我知道我一定要回去一趟，要不然我沒有辦法工作，人在這裡，心在古晉……..不知道以后的路要怎么走….不過我相信自有上天的安排…Important is,我想要做我想做的…..
近期以來很喜歡S.H.E….是因爲他們彼此之間的默契,真的很值得我們学习…我希望大家可以做到…..Treasure every single moment that we had…no matter where…
在網上看到其他人留言给S.H.E“也不知道什麽时候才能实现,真不知道我见你们的第一面的那一秒会变成什麽样子,会不会高兴的疯掉,希望可以见到你们”如果有機會我也想去看S.H.E的LIVE concert….J 就好像我想回家那樣一樣……
Hmmm…time flies….everyday the same working routine……only different thing is we have to live happily everyday no matter what….rite? Lots of my colleague actually got transferred to other store due to promoted become manager…

今天收拾一整天…把舊東西选出來捐赠给慈善团体…這樣一來又環保既能助人…不是很好嗎？其實我希望大家能夠開始關心世界…因爲我們都知道世界開始暖化…人也越来越多…垃圾也越来越多….爲了我們後代….希望大家少用plastic bags….. 如果有聼過王力宏-改变自己….不要以爲一個人的力量就微不足道(A drop in the bucket)…..When it comes together….then it becomes BIG.
最近很少用中文字，感觉怪怪的….如有错的地方，請多多指教！

Originally, we plan go to bluemoutain, but my parent said they want to go to the zoo. We changed our plan to the zoo in blacktown. We spend about 3 hours...coz the zoo is not that big which i expected.....Lots of different kind of kangaroo, wombat, tasmanian devil, etc......We having fun by seeing those animal...especially the white kangaroo.....

We left at 12 noon, we head down to bondi beach....it was windy cos of winter...no much people actually as in summer of coz....hehehhe......We spend a bit time to watch people surfing....My parents sitting on the bench ....

Next destination is Watson Bay "Syndey Harbour National Park"...we walk slowly up to the cliff...to see the view of city, cliff, sea, etc....Lots of tourists hanging around there...taking photo....I was thinking to see sunrise here one day if possible....

Time now is 4 something in....We off to Maroubra Beach which Richard recommend one of the beach....Not much different as others, the beach is not big as bondi or wollogong beach....It was pretty cold and windy...we just take few shoots then run to the car....hahahha

Everyone is exhausted ....especially my parents.....but thanks to richard and alison....so we get more fun.....My dad ask them to stay over to have dinner with us....my mum cooked instant noodles.....hahahha
