About

Have been playing the city games in China for about a decade, I came to Australia and that makes my straying dream nearly come true. But I miss my homwtown, a place they call Jiang Nan. Even though I am here enjoying the alien air and langscapes, my heart is always with China.

Recent

After two friends and I took a house in a suburb area of Australia, the real life continues with stressful paces and extra entertainments. Life can never stop, so does the sunshine.

genuine Tai food? 30 May 2008 |

I went to Caulfield campus in the noon to meet with Thanya for the 5070 assignment. Actually the right time i finished the 5011 assignment i was tired to death. Exhausted. But i cannot delay this one because other two group members has finished earlier to review their lessons. We studied until about 8 pm and decided to go to Smith St to have a kind of Tai dinner. Thyana told me that restaurant is very authentic and i also wanted to get rid of the depression because of 5011, so I went with her and her boy friend.
I have not been to city for a long time, let alone Smith St. Actually when i entered into the Tai restaurant, i felt very comfortable. A lot of people are there, with slow and gushy music, we ordered 5 dishes and finally we could not eat more. I take away some part and after the couple had a try they shouted that we should go there some day.

作业路漫漫,5011一直折磨人心。
sven号召我们家去钓鱼,我只能缺席。
不过晚上的KTV聚会不能逃脱,不能毁了歌神的称号。

去了传说中的钱柜,包厢很小,饭菜一般。已经很久没唱了,上学期比较疯狂。
可怜的jacky,不会唱歌,只好找人玩骰子,原来那两小丫唱歌都不错,低调啊低调。

sven事实上是个麦霸,麦霸就是不会唱也要把着麦的那种:)

once finished, to kill 23 May 2008 |

Jacky shouted his classmates along with his bridging program teacher Peter today. Actually these days i am busy with my 5011 assignment so this sort of thing often made me bittersweet. Luckily they came here in the afternoon. Jacky didn't spend a lot of time on food preparation, we had a long dinner not because of food but the special guest, his teacher Peter. We could not totally speak Mandarin, so English was often mingle in our conversation. The Aussie guy is sort of gentle and shy, we often ate with our eyes staring on him. So funny!
After dinner, Veiya suggested that we could play a game called “Mafia", which i used to play in Annie's birthday party. But this time seemed to be a bit different and professional. We a dozen of guys gathered around the living room and played this game until 2 am. That is the reason why the date watermarks on my photos appeared to be the date of 24 May...

where are you hiding? 16 May 2008 |

One old guy finally came to my house to remove the possums. The professional guy put a cage into the roof, so let's wait for the possums! Actually, they have bothered me for over one year, it is time for them to leave, because I can not even raise myself.

stressed 15 May 2008 |

Again i was depressed because of 5011-issues of risk management. 30-minute presentation and 5000 word essay, it is a tough project, not a game easy to play. The only thing i can do is to accumulate every cell. I do not know what is giving up, because i have already been on the way to the end.
The earthquake event caused a big disaster for people in Sichuan province,all the media are focusing on the whole process of government rescue planning; all the emerging pictures are unbearable to scan; tears are flowing out of those good but innocent people...
I denoted some money through Red Cross of Australia.
And, I browse some blogs of my friends, founding some of them have gotten married or engaged, leaving me such a big boy studying in a strange country. But i have no choice to regret or to be frustrated, every person has his own life. My life is doomed to be a long way with loneliness but a imaginable success.

mother's day 11 May 2008 |

Have immersed into the second law assignment for a couple of days, finally i got release from the pressure and frustration between times. Sven visited my house last night and interrupted my scheduled plan, as a result, i did the law assignment until 3 am in the morning. But actually i had almost finished till this afternoon. Jacky asked me to go outside to buy some lunch, i went with the couple to dine in Clayton Pizza restaurant and afterwards went to Jacky's friend's home. Some classmates gathered there and wrapped dumplings. This was the first time to do that and, for me in many years ago, i could have never imagined that one day i would wrap such a big thing in a foreign country. That my explain the inconstancy and unexpectedness of my life.
Anyway, it is Mother's Day today, the same day i moved into this house one year ago. I called my mother, with the excitement of finishing my law. Should i cry, or laugh? To the beautiful tomorrow.

lakes entrance 3 May 2008 |

Today we all got up early at about 6 am because we planned to go to Lakes Entrance to catch crabs. The initiation might be a little funny but actually we were excited especially Christiana. Eight people with two cars gathered outside our house and prepared to fulfill a great event.
On the way there it was a little rainy and the drivers Jacky and the so called younger brother of Veiya would be a little tired, we stopped some time and spent over three hours to drive there.
We firstly bought 3 licences and found a jetty showed in picture 2. Unfortunately we faced with a heavy wind and rain at times, which somehow affected our mood. The process of crabbing was a little bitter and sweet, our inexperience and weak preparedness contributed to our fuss. The ropes were too slender and when we pulled them from the water our hands felt hurt. Near to dusk there was coming an old man and told us some recipes for crabbing, like that we should throw our nets further and tighten the chicken meat to the bottom of the net.
We spent all the half day there and extended the time to about 9 pm catching over 40 crabs. That time it was so dark and our excitement was rushed by the darkness and starving. We went home at about 12 pm and immediately prepared to wash and cook the crabs because fresh ones were supposed to be excellent for dining. Eight people began another achievement, to wash, to cook, to eat, to clean.
Until the day after tomorrow, I can clearly smell the flavour of the crabs and the flavour of the rain and water on that day.

say sth 2 May 2008 |

I live an unimpressive life these days. Actually there are always some time when my mind is stuffed with fastidium and vulnerability, these small things stem from the complex relationship around my environment, maybe i am over sensible or stressed by no reason, all is my fault.
Jacky planned to go to Lakes Entrance where we can catch crabs. We called in some friends and will go there on Saturday, when I will have the whole day lectures. But i am gonna play truant to transfer my bad temper and emotion into happiness attached to beautiful landscapes and scenes. Jacky and I went to Sven's new house yesterday evening to borrow his case. We chatted with him for some minutes and he taught us a lot about how to catch crabs. Nice house, and nice smile.
Leave alone the betray, the disclosure of friendship, the unreasonable intrigue, the blue mood, and the fragile impulse because of affectional void.
Bless me, bless my tomorrow.
