Final Countdown!!!

*Final Countdown Theme song play in my head*

I am REALLY down to the FINAL week here in Aussie land!! One last week to enjoy the cold freezing weather and then it is time for me to sweat it all out back on the sunny island!! Really looking forward to the things i am going to do back home, one being going for a RUN!! I cannot believe that it took me 2 years to slim down, but 4 months to balloon back to my Shanghai weight.. AMAZING!! Hahaz!! But i just feel so unhealthy as i have not been exercising for AGES!

This week has been busy with driving to the airport, cleaning, packing, airport and more cleaning.. Love the h2h with Yu Jin, i am so going to miss her.. Like SERIOUSLY am.. On Friday, i felt like a hotel housekeeper waiting for my guests to check in, so need to make the beds, clean the whole house and more.. Phew, TIRING man, but super fulfilling.. Hahaz.. But sadly after cleaning the house, it takes only 5 minutes to dirty it again.. Depressed.. Hahaz!! But i super don't care already, cause i am leaving!!! But then again, i cannot stand living in a dirty house, so i think i will clean again.. Hahaz!

The entire clan has arrived!! My parents and bro is in town!!! Stayed at the Holiday In Brisbane yesterday and toured the city.. Walked so much that my brother and dad is in pain now.. Hahaz!! Oops, i am too hardcore a tour guide.. Bad bad planning.. Then today went to Riverlink, bought heaps of stuff and love the way they enjoyed grocery shopping.. Now i know where i get that habit of mine from.. ALL of the family.. Hahaz! After that i came back, washed the car with Yu Jin and had an awesome dinner prepared by my mother and brother..

Then it was MasterChef time with Yu Jin!! So glad we share the love for food! Hahaz.. This week is going to be a hectic week with going to GC on Wed and Thur, then Graduation on Fri and back to Singapore on Saturday!!! But whatever the plan is, i am just glad that my family is here, to share this experience with me..

I am very tired from travelling, walking and basically not having enough sleep.. But with family and Yu Jin here, i know i am given the strength to just push on!! Want to sleep can go back Singapore sleep!! Hahaz!! Okie lah, time for me to go spend family time..

Till then, the next time i blog on a Sunday will be when i am SAFELY BACK IN SINGAPORE!! Hahaz.. Take care people and will see ya all SOON!! =)

Starting to feel the miss...

In two weeks time, i will be back in Singapore.. I am really looking forward to it as can be seen as how much i support the sunny island of ours.. But then again, i start to feel the miss of this place..

Maybe because i just started to enjoy the life here.. Having no stress from exams and school.. The thought of going back to Singapore to find a job is so depressing.. Not that i do not want to work, but more of, i do not know what i want to work and where.. Kinda feel loss right now, not knowing the goal that i am heading towards.. And in life, if you have no goal, the feeling really sucks...

This week have to settle the last minute paperwork stuff before i welcome the arrival of my family and then its time to say goodbye to this place.. Was packing my room today and i am stressing over how am i going to bring back a printer, 2 compact grills, ALL my clothes, HEAPS of food, baking items, ALL my notes and more!! STRESS AH!!! Not sure if the combined effort of 80KG will be enough.. HAHAHZ!!!

I just watched New Moon.. Yes, i know i very loser and lag, but that time had no partner to watch with so now i managed to borrow the DVD from a friend at work.. You know what, i start to loathe Bella, cause she is such a player!! SHEESH! Like make a decision already! Saying I Love You to 2 guys at the same time with none of them being your dad of brother is just so WRONG! Hahaz.. Oh wells, it is a movie, so yeah..

Alright.. This week has been hectic with work and slacking.. Hahaz.. So tomorrow i am going to reward myself by sleeping in!! However, got to go to the city to settle come superannuation thing tomorrow.. Like sian! Need to travel so freaking far! ARGH! Maybe i should call them before i go down.. Hehe.. Lazy ah... Till then, i will see my family and friends REAL soon!

Bored...

Being a human, when you are bored, you start to think of stuffs.. So since i am so bored, i decided to blog.. Let me see, today's topic shall be on love then, since i have been watching too much love shows and hearing love matters from friends.. Machiam some love consultant, but actually not know.. Hahaz!

Well, was talking to my manager yesterday, and she said something that i agree so totally.. That is between two people, no matter what happens, you have to be truthful and honest to one another.. She told me that before she stepped into marriage, both parties have to be honest with themselves, that they are ready, that they want to create a future together, that they want to be with one another, and be able to accept all the good and bad in each other, not to attempt to change one another.. I think what she says makes a heap loads of sense.. I mean, if one has a little doubt in them, then were will the relationship lead to? If you are not being honest, that this is what you want, that this is what you are willing to give up, that this is what you are willing to accept, then i am sure the marriage/relationship will not last because at some point of time, things will just keep building up till it ends up negatively in a big explosion...

I have been hearing much love matters from people around me recently.. Maybe because is is one of the easiest topic to engage in cause well, everyone will have been through it right? From the simple love from a family, to a friend to an opposite sex.. We all have different expectations and ways of expressing, it takes time to fully understand and accept how one expresses their love and concerns.. Some might be simple to say 'I Love You', some may be tough as they keep breathing down you neck.. But at the end of they day, it is because they are concerned for us, loving us, that is why they will treat us in such ways..

Among my friends, many of them are attached, some even married.. I guess this is the time when people start to panic about what if I am still single? What if I cannot get married? I have even got people asking me whether I have a boyfriend and when i want to find one.. Well, all i can say from my perspective is, such matters cannot be rushed.. As matters of the heart takes time, and i am still learning despite being 22 years of age... Heard this song, which makes heaps of sense: "Love is not love, till you learn how to give it away"... I am sick and tired of one-sided wild goose chase, that i am not afraid to say that i was rather afraid of stepping into another relationship and face the same problem again.. So, now i am learning how to open up and accept love again.. After all, i STILL want to get married and have kids.. Hahaz!

I believe really strongly that i will be able to find the love of my life.. One who will not care if i burp really loud, have a voice of a loud speaker, am fat, loves to eat and being so stubborn.. One that will give me the strong sense of security.. Even if it takes more time, it is fine.. After all, i rather marry right and be happy than jump into a marriage that might end up in a nasty way.. I all along thought that now, i should just reserve for the right person to come.. But my brother told me that is not right.. Cause this way, i will be afraid to accept relationships... Which i think it is really true.. But then again, this does not mean that we can jump into anyone that pops up lah.. Hahaz... Know of some friends who do that.. Though i am in no position to comment, i just feel that why jump into one before knowing a person better?

To my friends out there not going through a good period right now.. Press on.. If the other party decides to end it, well, then we just got to accept right? After all, being forced to stay in a relationship will not be good too.. And trust me, the feeling sucks for both parties.. So get out, have fun and just live life again..

I am just glad that now, Sheryl has finally found her inner self again.. The all along cheerful, loud and crazy girl since she was born.. In fact, it is in this semester that I actually realised many life lessons.. One being you can never satisfy everyone, and even if some people are not happy or comfortable with the way you speak and act, heck about them.. I am who i am, me speaking this way, acting this way, is my inner self, my copyright, my label.. If i need to change, i will, like my stubborn character.. Well, though i KNOW it is impossible to change totally, but a simple improvement will mean heaps.. Only those who appreciate the way you are will just accept this 'spare parts' of the package.. So yeah..

Took me 5 years to find this inner me again.. Maybe too much has happened within these 5 years.. After all, during this period i have been let down in both friendships and relationships, but have also enjoyed the best moments in both friendships and relationships too.. From being controlled to gaining freedom, from having to lead but have failed, from knowing who my true friends are, from being disappointed to finding encouragement, from being a really lousy student to being a smart one for now.. Hahaz.. These 5 years seem to have passed in a flash..

I just want to thank everyone cause you all have played a part.. Those who made me pissed, upset or even heart broken, i do not blame you peeps, cause if not for you peeps, i don't think i can be who i am today.. Learning to stand on my feet and be stronger.. So for that, i thank you all for knocking me hard with the harsh realities in life.. I TRULY do appreciate...

Those who have always been there for me.. Nothing can ever express the gratitude that i have.. Being there for me when i am down, giving me a boost when i need encouragement, always showering me with the love and concerns... I am able to stay this positive and cheerful because of you peeps.. So i thank you all..

Okie, this is a damn long entry.. Hahaz! But these few days, having to do nothing after the exams, it has given me heaps of time to think about my life.. About the past and what i want to do from now on.. Though i have only been thinking about the past, it is time i look into the future.. Decide what i want to do, where i want to go and ultimately, what i want to achieve in this life of mine.. To friends going through a tough time now, remember, although sometimes the ending point is the same, it is the process that matters.. As long as you put in the best effort, positive results will reap..
