In just a few hours we as a family are leaving to Italy. We're gonna be traveling to Milan, Venice, Florence and Rome. From the weather forecast, I heard that it's very cold there. Hopefully I can manage the cold.
I've been trying to work out more often these days, because since Uni started, I've become very lazy and do so much less sports than I did in high school. So I need to regain my fitness, to live a healthy life. Hope I persevere this time, because I get bored of working out very easily.
Wish us a safe flight for tonight. :)

Once again!
Once again, I've left my blog to die...
Once again, I've gotta revive my blog...
This time it was different, because I actually forgotten all about my blog. HEHE. Poor blog. I'm sorry. But a friend "Germaine" reminded me that my blog was dead, and then it reminded me of my blog again. Thank you thank you!!
So hopefully I would try to keep it alive as long as possible this time round, as I am on holiday and I have no excuses.
Well, my last semester was a really good semester, as I got all distinctions for my results. Very proud of myself. I was very consistent all semester long, every free time I have would be spent in the library. I never let my work get ahead of me. Plus from swot vac on wards I practically lived in the Library, because it opened for 24 hours per day. I thank God for my achievement last semester, and pray that he will continue to support me throughout the next semester.
Anyways, I did something I never did before after my exams. I baked for the first time in my life. CHOCOLATE PEANUT BUTTER LITTLE MUFFINS!!! Mmmm, I thought it was pretty good for a first timer. I enjoyed eating it. Below is a picture of one tray of them.

Sale of a car
One random day, I saw this advertisement on the Uni advertising board about a car for sale, then I started thinking to myself why would I need a car. The first thing that came up was WORSHIP EQUIPMENT TRANSPORT (Since there's basically only two guys who help with the transportation for music instruments for OCF worship, so I thought it would be nice to have another person to help out, so that the same two guys won't have to do it over and over weekly). Then a second idea came to mind CELL GROUP TRANSPORT (since my cell group is basically consist of girls, there's only 3 guys in the cell, and we finish cell time pretty late at night, and I thought it was very dangerous for the girls to walk back alone that late at night, so I decided maybe a car could help) Thirdly I thought it would be perfect for EMERGENCY SITUATIONS (where you really need to use the car, when you decide to study till late in the library and when trams stops running I can still get home, or when you're in a rush and know that trams won't bring you to a place on time)
So after thinking about these reasons I thought it would be logical to get a car, the problem was that I thought of all these very quickly and I did everything in such a rush and started going on ebay to look at cars, and found this perfect car for a very cheap price, then I went to inspect the car and then bought it. But after I bought the car it hit me that I haven't asked for my parent's opinion on buying the car, then I told my self why was I such an idiot, I knew then that I will definitely get into trouble with them and would make my parents very upset. Then I kept asking myself why why why did I do it, and told myself that now I have to face the consequences.
At that point in time I had a few weeks to prepare myself for the consequence, I decided not to tell them at that point because I was returning to Malaysia for a family holiday in Thailand, so I didn't want to spoil the holiday for them. Therefore I decided to only tell them after the trip.
So when the time came for me to tell them (2 nights ago), I found it very hard to tell them, but I did it anyways and sure enough as expected, they got very shocked and I could tell that they were furious on the inside, but I really appreciate my dad for holding his temper and not blasting at me. Instead he talked to me nicely, I thought it was very good for him to do that and appreciated the talk. So the outcome from the talk was that I was to sell the car off. I thought it would be easy for me to let go of the car, but I didn't realise I have created a bond with the car and find it very hard to let it go, but I will obey my parents and go ahead with the sale anyways. It is sad, but unfortunately at this point of time, it's the right thing to do.
So if anyone is interested in buying a car for a very cheap price just let me know.

Revive
Ok so I have left my blog for dead the past few months. Well it was not intentional, but it's due to the fact that my life has been very busy these days, I barely have much time for myself.
Reasons for being busy...
- Third year is very demanding
- I have been working on average about 12 hours a week
- Any free time I've got would usually be in the library to keep up with my Uni work, as I refuse to let it get ahead of me.
Right now I am in Malaysia for the 2 week break, and I am enjoying every moment of it. It has been really good to be home. Plus before this we as a family went to Krabi Thailand for a nice and relaxing beach holiday.
The trip was the most relaxing trip I've ever been to because it was a low peak season, therefore there weren't many people there. We basically had the whole hotel to ourselves. Well maybe there were about 20 rooms occupied at the whole resort which probably have hundreds of rooms. Other than that, I've been playing a lot of tennis with my brother at the resort too and we got really tanned, my skin are peeling off at the moment *yuck*
Besides staying at the hotel and just lying by the pool and tanning, or playing tennis, or simply just relaxing, we spent one day out at the open sea for a fishing trip. I personally caught 8 fishes and the family as a whole caught about 30 fishes, which they brought to a restaurant and had it grilled and steamed for us to eat. Of course I didn't have any of it, due to disliking fish.
I would say that this trip is also like a family posing and photography session type of holiday as we took so many pictures as a family, I must admit that the pictures were very pretty.
Here are some of the pictures from the trip.

Pictures
Hello again, as promised here are the pictures from the Marrysville rebuilding trip.
I really like this picture a lot, it looks so vintage. Anyways this is us as a group of friends, down there to help rebuild. Adeline taking the picture.
Now in this picture, Adeline is in it, but Hugo is taking the picture. Leland spoilt the picture. HAHA
Standing on the oldest tree in the forest. It's 80m long and 400 years old. It got blown down by the furious winds of the bush fire. And as you can see, it's all black and burnt.
Relaxing in his parents house. One of two houses left standing in Marrysville.
We had to debark the logs. It was hard work, especially for a sick guy like me. (I was sick when I went there, fever and cough)
Whole forest burned down and black!
Names of all the people who came down to help Collin rebuild.
Dead Forest
Collin's parents' house
Debarking
Climbing up the giant 80m long tree
Ok the pictures below are just random pictures..
Chicken Breast that I cooked
Vege that I cooked too. I liked the presentation of this one
And this last picture is the picture of our new commerce building, The Spot (The cow building) It has spots all over the building and I've showed the gut (lecture theatre) of this building in one of my previous posts.

I'm Back
Hello everybody,
I finally got the time to sit down and give my blog a little love, after 2 months of absence. (I think)
Well I've been horribly busy for the past 2 months with assignments, exams, looking for a new place to move into, being sick that I didn't have any time to spare for my blog. Well this is just because my blog is not the most important thing in my life. So that's fine.
Anyways I'm on a one month break from Uni and it's been pretty fun. One week has past since my last exam paper and I've been doing so much. The highlight was going up to Marrysville for 2 days to help a friend rebuild his houses that got burned down during the bush fires at the start of this year. I'll post the pictures in the next post, and a summary of his amazing stories in the next post as well.
What else have I been during this past week? Well I have been going to friend's house to play some dota and l4d, also been searching for a new place to move out to, because the owner of the place I'm staying in just sold out this place. So yes, been pretty busy.
There are 2 things that I can't wait for during this holidays. First, I can't wait for my exam results to come out, can't wait to see if I passed or failed. Secondly I can't wait to SKI!!
Well my birthday is coming up soon as well, but there's nothing to look forward to for that, because it's only my 22nd birthday, nothing special. Maybe just a dinner with Michele that's it.
One last update, something unfortunate happened to me during the break. I GOT SICK, but fortunately it's not swine. I got it due to lack of sleep I guess. The first few days of the break I've been doing so much that I tired myself out. But I'm about more than half healed, so thank God for that.
Ok I'm gonna post up pictures in the next post, but for now, I gtg do something else.

Emo post
I am feeling very down right now, I have no one to run to, because it's late at night. I have no one to talk to, because it's late at night. So here is the only place where I can scream, say what I wanna say, just let everything inside me out.
I can't sleep, I can't study, I'm distracted, my head feels heavy, my heart is aching, I feel incapable, I feel like a disappointment to my parents, my self esteems has just dropped deep down the deepest ocean, I feel misunderstood, but it seems that my parents are always right. Tears keep running down my cheeks and I can't contain it, I can't stop it. Depression is not the right word for this, but I don't know how else to describe this. Where's my sister when I need her. I feel alone, isolated.
I have yet again disappointed my parents, disrespecting them. Not intentionally of course. I never wanted that to happen, that is the last thing I want to do to them, but I always seem to do it. Am I still not matured yet to think what is right to do and what is wrong. Is my brain still like a kid? I thought I have matured, but my parents said apparently I haven't. I thought I knew what I was doing, but apparently its not the right thing to do.
I tend to always make my own decisions without consulting my parents first, and that means I am disrespecting my parents. I don't tell them everything that happens in my life, only half of it, and that is also disrespecting my parents. But the thing is that, I didn't choose to not tell them, it's just that everything that I need to say is not in my head while talking to my parents, also it's very hard to open up to them, it's always been hard since I was a little boy. I'm scared I will disappoint them, I'm scared of rejection. I realised I am not as strong as I thought I was.
I want to change. I want to do the right thing. I don't want to disappoint my parents. But WHY AM I NOT CAPABLE OF DOING THAT???
ARGHHHH!!! TELL ME WHY??
How do I live my life as a model son, how can I make my parents happy. All I always seem to do is hurt them over and over again. This is not what I want.
I WANT TO JUST GO FAR AWAY AND JUST LIE DOWN AWAY FROM WORK, STUDIES, LIFE AND JUST HAVE SOMETIME TO MYSELF AND REFLECT, THINK ABOUT HOW TO CHANGE.

Intestine of a Cow
This year marks the opening of the new Economics and Commerce building of Melbourne University. It has been given the name "THE SPOT"
Why THE SPOT? Well because the building looks like a cow from the outside, it has white cow like spots all over the building. I should have taken a picture of the building from the outside. I will do that tomorrow maybe. Anyways that building has another nickname called "THE COW"
Alright so I thought the building looks funny on the outside, until I saw the main lecture theatre which looks something like this.
I was so amazed. I think it is so beautiful. It also kinda looked a bit like the insides of a cow, if you imagine it to be that way. But still, amazing architecture.
On a random note, I was up to no good again. HEHE. I just had to climb this half hanging ladder. Just for fun.
KKK thats it for now.

The reality of Christmas
WE REMEMBER THE BIRTH OF JESUS, THE CHRIST
WE HAVE BEEN TOLD STORIES OF OLD
GOD CAME AS A CHILD

TO SHOW FORGIVENESS TO SINNERS
TO BELIEVE SUCH THINGS IS MISGUIDED, THE TRUTH IS
HE WAS JUST AN ORDINARY MAN WHO LIVED AN ORDINARY LIFE
THOSE WHO DO NOT BELIEVE THE TRUTH SAY
WE PROCLAIM HIS NAME EMMANUEL, GOD WITH US
WE SHARE THE WONDER OF THE SHEPHERDS
WE SING THE SONGS OF THE ANGELS
THIS IS NOT WHAT IS REAL
SHEPHERDS WERE NOT AWAKENED BY ANGELIC ANNOUNCEMENT
THERE WERE NO WISE MEN CELEBRATING THE BIRTH OF THE KING
I'D BE LYING TO YOU IF I SAID THAT
FOR THE CREATOR OF THE UNIVERSE
THERE WAS NO ROOM IN THE INN
FOR THE SON OF GOD
THERE WAS BUT A HUMBLE STABLE
WHETHER YOU LIKE IT OR NOT
THIS IS THE REALITY OF CHRISTMAS
that's what I used to think, but then I made room for him in my heart and Jesus turned it all upside down. (READ BACKWARDS)

On April 1st 2003, I encountered a very silly accident. I dislocated and cracked both my wrist while playing basketball in my high school.
Today would be my 6th anniversary for my dislocated wrists. I knew that my wrist were either broken or dislocated because I couldn't move them.What I remembered from that incident is that, a lot of my friends didn't believe that I dislocated both my wrist, because it was April fools and they think I was playing a prank on them. What good friends I have. LOL. But as time passed, my wrists started to swell and it became more believable that I was not fooling around. Anyways, I went to seek help from my teacher, and my teacher resulted in calling my parents.
My mum then came to school and picked me up to bring me to the hospital, where I got treated and I had 2 casts on that had to stay on for 5 weeks.
At that period, I was so in love with basketball that, after just one week, I started playing basketball again, with my casts still on my hands. I'm sure quite a few of my friends remembered that. I was at an advantage, because the casts were hard so no one dared to come too close to me, just in case my casts hit them and probably knock them out.
I guess what I'm trying to say is that I've had a pretty crazy childhood. All the things I did, most of them were unbelievable.
By the way, tomorrow will be our 5th month anniversary. Moving on to the 6th month. I'm really happy that we are still going strong, with no problems between us. For those who knows me, you know what I'm talking about.

Melbourne this period
It's F1 weekend in Melbourne this weekend. Not that I'm a huge fan of F1 or anything, it's just that I can hear the sounds of the engines from my apartment, even though I live like at least 5 km away from the race track. That just shows how loud the engines are. So yeh I just randomly wanted to post this up.This also reminds me of how fast time flies. Because I worked at the F1 last year, and it just seems like it was yesterday. I couldn't believe it. Already one full on and eventful year has went by.
Anyways Earth Hour is on tonight, and I will be doing it, just so that I could play apart in trying to save the Earth. As we Melbournians have noticed how the Earth is changing, due to the recent earthquakes. For those that didn't know, 2 Earthquakes in less than a month struck Melbourne last week and a few weeks back. Although it wasn't a serious one, but still I don't think there's ever been an earthquake in Australia before. See how the Earth is changing?
Anyways hope everyone else is also doing their part in trying to save the earth. Together, we can achieve great things.

Tired is an understatement
Last weekend was a fun filled and busy weekend. Lets just say I slept late every night and woke up early every morning.
On Friday night, went to VII to celebrate a friends birthday. It was fun, dancing and all those stuff. I bet Jason had lots of fun that night too, because I introduced him to someone and they got along very well.
Anyways I got back pretty late that night, and had to wake up at 7 the next morning, to catch a train to Torquay (Surf Beach). So yeah you've guessed it, I was freaking sleepy and tired. Fortunately adrenaline kicked in, cause when I was riding the waves, I didn't feel tired. The waves were awesome when it came, but the good waves didn't come so often. By good waves, I mean big waves that I could catch even though I'm far off the beach. The waves were nice and clean, not too choppy. So after surfing, we caught the train back to Melbourne, and then I had to catch another train up to Glen Waverly. Went to Aunty Rita's house for BBQ. Jason went too. Stayed over at Aunty Rita's house that night.
The next morning, we had to wake up at 8 to get ready for tennis. Played tennis with Jason, Leslie and Martin for about 3 hours. I had so much fun. I love playing tennis. After tennis, we all went to the Glen, to have lunch at the food court. I had KFC, how exciting.
The last exciting thing that happened was trying to catch the train back to Melbourne. It was exciting, because we missed it. We missed it because of Jason Khoo!!! Well, Leslie drove us to the station, so I said my goodbyes and thank yous, then got out of the car, and then waited for a while and looked around and saw that the train is leaving in one minute. So I was like wth is Jason still doing in the car. I quickly opened the door and told Jason to hurry up and he took his time, as I was running to the ticket booth. After we bought our tickets, we quickly ran to the train, just about 50 meters to go, the train started to move. What a pity. So we had to wait 20 minutes for the next train.
Well that was all for my weekend. Of course I came home and studied after that. No pictures from the weekend. So no pictures to be posted. HEHE.
Sorry if this post is quite messy. I'm actually half doing my work too. Multi-tasking. YEAH!!
Bye!!

A week of happenings
This past week made me so stressed out. Guess why??
THE RENT!!!
Stupid agent kept bothering me, at home, at uni when I'm in class, through voicemail if I missed the call, when I'm studying. Sheesh seriously. In one day there would be 3 different agents calling me to talk about the same things. WHY ARE THEY SO DISORGANIZED?? That is annoying for one, but that is not the main issue. The main issue is that I've already paid for the rent, but the kept saying I haven't and kept bothering me. This is the second week they've been disturbing me. Last week they disturbed me too, and I gave them the payment receipt number. But this week they still kept on pestering me about not paying the rent. So I had no choice but to turn to my Dad, and my Dad finally called them up and settled it once and for all.
Sorry I just had to let it out, and thought this is a good place to do so. Since I haven't been updating regularly anyways.
Besides that, Uni has been going well, except for one subject. EPM (Enterprise Performance Management) I have no idea what is going on in this subject. It's so confusing. Other than that, everything is just going perfectly.
Things between Michele and I are still going strong and well, and I am very X16 happy about that.
Tennis training starts next week. It will be my first ever tennis lesson I've ever taken. I hope it will be helpful.
