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.

Happy new year 31 Dec 2008 |

对鬼佬来说,今晚是个隆重的日子,因为明天就是09年了。可惜中国人的过法是农历初一才算是真的一年伊始,所以一月一号顶多是个元旦。
去年此时,跟马来西亚朋友一路狂奔去悉尼过新年看烟花,晚上12点整正看得兴冲冲的,家里室友老乡发来短信:家里被偷了。没了电脑,没了手表,难道喜悦也要付出代价?
今年此时,我想平淡地过新年。马来朋友依然叫我去悉尼,只是今年已非昨日事;墨尔本看烟火看来没戏了,太晚了,酒吧也不去了,不喜欢喝酒。记得大学跟好朋友几个经常光顾酒吧,也主要是跳舞蹦的,对喝酒并无喜好。我也许是老了罢,对极致的欢愉也不太想去追求,一顿小餐,看看绚丽的烟火就够了,可惜朋友同学大都回国了,也就作罢。
以前我总是认为,什么东西都不要留下遗憾。现在我想明白了,人生哪那么完美,云淡风轻才是真。没有朋友在身边,眼球也没有被美景膨胀,但过一个平平淡淡的元旦,烧两个小菜自己图饱,我总能得到些坦然与自在。
拥抱繁华应不难,最难如是:笑颜自平淡。
不管怎么样,祝福朋友开心,新年快乐,在国内的老爸老妈身体健康,万事如意。

jacky's show 29 Dec 2008 |

These few days I am indulged with ipod touch and played games until early in the morning and had a long sleep till 2pm...Life should not be like this but since I will go back to China, which imposed me some sentiment and sadness, I have to get rid of these things with some fullness.
Jacky invited me to his living place to get a dinner. He picked me up. His house is with capacious room and excellent entertainment facilities. Veiya, Lulu, Ivy came a little bit later. We enjoyed the screen cinema in the living room and afterwords had dinner together. It was fantastic I really liked that. After dinner we played basketball for a while and afterwords the three girls played Majiang with Jacky's landlord. But we went home very early because Jacky's had to do his part-time job.

昨天没逛够,再去city。买了件FCUK的衣服,倒不是我对这个英国品牌情有独钟,只是其他品牌看不到中意的。

boxing day 26 Dec 2008 |

昨天答应越越去逛boxing day,一大早就起来了,大概6点半,其实我昨晚压根没睡着,失眠,加上中东人的嘈杂声,整个购物过程十分吃力。chadstone人山人海,传说中的南半球最大的购物广场,今天挤满了鬼佬。平常几乎在澳洲是看不到一下子这么多鬼佬集中在一起。买了个coutry road的经典包,为itouch买了个case,为相机买了个case。其实这些并非今天才能买到,只不过找个理由花钱而已。越越是非常之能逛,如同在旅游那阵子精神体力都十分充沛。同行的她家那“小姑娘”看来也累了,可是他们居然还去了city。我就乖乖地在下午2点半左右就回家了。想床。

christmas day 25 Dec 2008 |

Today I invited ivy to come to my house to have dinner together. Actually I should have invited more but Lulu and Jacky meant not come. I got up very later cause yesterday I was so tired. But Ivy came at the right time. Her boy friend drove her here and drove us to springvale to buy something for dinner. We came back but he left. I haven't cooked for a long time and the whole process made me tired. Frankly, this time I did not do very well but it's still OK. Veiya made some desserts and spring roles.
In the evening, we decided to go seeing sundown in Frankstone beach. Ivy's BF drove us there. The view was amazing but it was chilly beside the beach. Yueyue came with us. That was the first time I have seen the sundown in Australia, even in China, I did not even think about it.

christmas eve 24 Dec 2008 |










晚上跟随小妮子同学去city玩,期间lulu叫我去chadstone逛街,不过这丫头不靠谱,常常放鸽子。去了city,主要是去教堂看圣诞夜赞歌。一路逛,跟小妮子同学也不太熟,若即若离,最后散开玩了。晚上夜很冷,不过开心的是偶遇了许多熟人:我家Jacky的同学Nancy,Vera, 语言班同学xi,还有新家的室友。Federation square上演了小丑表演,看着热闹,身体却很冷。与veiya傻乎乎地看到12点半后,没想到已经没火车了。最后无奈只能taxi,没想到费用是平常的double, Jesus Christ,打到一小半的时候,veiya同学Daniel过来接了下送回家了。还好才38的打的费用,不然没100是到不了家。

long range walk till lulu's house 22 Dec 2008 |

one church in toorak


在家闷的慌,要憋出病来了。于是想起去流浪。
一个人去了toorak,传说中的富人区,自toorak train station下之后,满以为就到了。没想到一走就走了半小时才到了toorak village,并且那条线可以直通south yarra, chapel st,于是一并走了下来。累趴了,没想到那么长的路。
回家路上顺便请lulu,jacky,还有lulu家那丫头佩佩一起吃了晚饭。刚到墨尔本那会,我还跟佩佩住文文的同一个房子,一转眼快两年过去了,过得真快。她挂了三门,jacky挂了两门。但jacky似乎从刚开始的极度失意中恢复过来了。
吃完去lulu家拷了点影片连续剧,jacky送我回家了。也许这是在墨尔本最后一次跟jacky碰头了。

graduation ceremony 18 Dec 2008 |

















I have to wear formal clothes to attend my graduation ceremony at 8pm at Clayton campus. Veiya accompanied me there earlier at about 6 pm to gather my gown. Ross, James, Ivy, Wendy, David were all. Everybody dressed very formal expect Ivy and David cause they are special. Actually I wore the gown a couple of weeks ago at caulfield, so this time I am familiar with it. Wangyue came there later. The ceremony lasted not so long until 9pm. We agreed to go to Melbourne city to sing songs. Again we came to Partyworld stayed there till 3 am early in the morning. But sth bad happened that Veiya's friend fan got angry with her because we should have sung together but finally we separated. But we got 16 persons. In addition, Ross will leave here tomorrow. We all bid farewell to him and wish him good luck in the future. After that, we went to have some night dinner. And, finally, they fly back one by one...

busy with the old unit 12 Dec 2008 |

9号到12号,这几天一直在打扫老家。因为澳洲的规矩,take的房子到期了必须得还复最原始的面貌,不然就损失绑金,而且如果做的不好,还可能要多缴钱。10号晚上跟brooks,sven三个人辛勤劳动了几个小时,这座年久失修的老房子,临到要做卫生了才发觉挺够呛。那几天,大部分事情都是我来处理,因为他们都有part time要做,sven还要考试,麻烦事一堆堆,期间我们几个陆陆续续清洁了好几次,最后12号中介还告诫有几处不达标。不管怎么样,最后绑金肯定会被扣一部分,看房东跟中介想不想黑人了。

say googbye to the couple 8 Dec 2008 |

My house is being messed up, because we are all going to move out and a lot rubbish were left out. Tomorrow morning, the couple will fly back to China. I decided to stay with them for the last night, but Veiya had to live in her new room because she has her work to do.
In the daytime, Jacky helped me pick my stuff onto his car and drove me to my new house. I will still live with Veiya in the same house. All of us spend almost the whole day in collecting and packing our stuff. The rubbish bins are full and a lot of rubbish and waste have to be put outside.
At night, we family went to Chinatown to have dinner together in the restaurant 渔湘阁. Another two are Jacky's teacher A Du and one of his previous classmates.

berry picking 7 Dec 2008 |

Tomorrow the couple will go back to China. And, today might be the last day we go outside together in Melbourne to visit somewhere. But i am sure, i will miss them forever, they bring me a lot of fun and happiness.
Jacky organized this function: four cars, 15 persons. Some of them i have met them before, just the couple's classmates. But Ivy's join gave me a big surprise. Honestly, she has her own bf and mostly focused on her own functions. But, i guess her coming contributed to their break-down of car.
We went to the Silvan, a place called Blue Hill, where i visited the same time of last year. I can still remember last year i "begged" somebody to take me there and the cute girl named Amy took me in. One year past so fast.
We spent about 2 hour picking berries and they tasted good. Xiao Fang was a little serious about picking the biggest ones. Others picked very quickly, and ate quickly. Just a while, i turned full.
After we finished picking we went to a wine farm. From the top of that farm side, we could get an amazing view. Since i am not interested in wines, i did not buy anything.
We all had dinner in Sofia, faced with a lot of large dishes, made us full and full.
The couple will leave, we talked a lot at night. But, good things never last forever. We have chances to meet in China, but not internationally.
