Ok. So after all the whining and complains for the past 3 months or so, this is it. It ends here. I'm done with the semester, only left with 4 examinations to determine where I stand. I would love to thank all my tutors who have been very patient with the class, and of course, for being so kind and trying their best to make the class as interesting as possible. Also, sorry for not participating much during the tutorial classes. But honestly, I'm beginning to get used to how the participation thingy works.. And I'm beginning to be more daring to participate than before (thanks for teaching me that.) To a few lecturers, Sorry for not attending your lectures since week 3-11. My job now, is to make sure I do enough revision to understand the topics and do well for the exams!!! May God bless me with the revisions and the exams itself.

Speaking of which, today's International Business Tutorial class was the interesting and fun, unlike any other week where the tutor pulls a long face.

R.I.P Steve Jobs (Co-founder of Apple) It's kinda sad how good people die at a young age. He will always be remembered by every single person worldwide!! Look how Apple is so successful right now!! Every single household owns a product by Apple! I have iTouch, she has MacBook, he has iPad, they have iMac and iPods. Oh man, what a great contribution he'd make for this world. We love you, and will always do!

DAYLIGHT SAVING Increase the time difference by 1 hour. That would mean Jakarta and Melbourne is 4 hours away, Scotland and Melbourne is 10 hours away, Singapore and Melbourne is 3 hours away. Those are the locations where my loved ones are. Don't know what the future brings but I hope it's gonna be good. I still miss my family and friends. Still doing the same old thing over here. Reminiscing every single good times spent with them. Now that mid-semester break is over and I'm almost done with 2 assignments due this week, I have to start to be more serious in my studies in preparation for my final examination!!! If I haven't updated you guys, my first exam will commence on 31st October (Marketing Research Method), second exam on 2nd November (Managerial Communications), third exam on 17th November (International Business), and last but not least, fourth exam on 18th November (Business Statistics). I'll be going back to Jakarta on 24th November,...

So...... I'm pretty much left with 4 assignments before my final examination starts. Did my first presentation, ever in Melbourne, this morning... Well, i've practiced it for a couple of times and it didn't turn out THAT bad, just that I didn't know what I was talking about until the presentation has ended. But anyway, it was worth the practice. Next week is my mid-semester break. You'd probably be thinking that I'll finally have some time to have fun with my friends. But fact is, I'm gonna spend most of the time doing my assignments. :( Till we meet again.

Happy 100th Post

Oh well, this is my 100th post :) Yay-ness, LOL. I just wanna update this blog so that I can look back on the things I did, struggles I've been through and the achievements I've made :) Right now, I'm feeling so satisfied cos I've just finished my 3rd assignment (group task)! 5 more assignments to goooo yeahhh!!!! 1 due on week 9, 2 due on week 10 and the last 2 is due on week 11. God bless!!! I hope I could finish all the tasks on time, without having to panic!! I need lots of motivation to keep me going forward.. By the way, I've been the quietest and giving the least contribution in my MANCOM group. I don't know what they are going to comment about me in the essay, but I hope they'll be kind enough to write good comments about me. Oh well, it's not that I don't wanna talk or contribute. It's just that 1. They talk too fast. 2. Ambiguity. 3. Basically, they've spoken the ideas that I have in mind. So.....What more can I do? ...

Homesick

I am officially hating Melbourne. Never thought it would be this hard to adapt to new surroundings. I can't seem to be making friends. I can't seem to enjoy myself. I'm feeling so homesick. I miss my comfort zone. I miss being surrounded by people who care for me. I miss being in a place where everything is familiar to me. I miss ........ home. I'm starting to think that it's the wrong decision for me to start a new life here. I should have stayed in Singapore, continue my education in S.I.M and get done and over with my Bachelor degree, along with my other friends who're in that school.. Well, I know University life is not gonna be easy, in terms of education.. But I'm very sure that it will make your life less tough if you have friends around.. I'm such a lifeless person now. Heading home each day after classes... Spending time watching DVD every night.. I'm like living a life of a robot, doing the same daily routine everyday. Y...

It’s 1.30am in Melbourne right now. I’m still wide awake, my mind tells me to sleep but my heart’s telling me to do otherwise. I haven’t been blogging for ages, prolly cos I haven’t got the mood since then and I don’t have any internet connection here (cos it’s freakin expensive). Talking about adapting to new surroundings and making new friends, frankly, I haven’t got used to this new environment yet. Making new friends in Uni isn’t as easy as in high school anymore. Well, prolly cos they have their own groups, they choose who they wanna hang out with, and somehow, it’s really hard for me to make new friends, or have a new clique of friends. Caucasians hang out with Caucasians, while Asians hang out with Asians. Not talking about racism, or being communist. Maybe they just wont clique. Perhaps having as much freedom isn’t a good thing as well.  I have no idea how to spend my weekends here. Clubs? Café? Problem is, I haven’t got myself new friends to clique yet. Or probably, nev...

I've finally found the reason to let go.... I love David Choi! I had the best days of my life for the past 3 days; 27-29 June 2011. Let me sum up my past 3 days ; it was more than just a fan meeting her idol. It was full of joy, laughters, and for me, it was also emotional. On 27th, he signed on all of his albums, and a picture of him :) I gave him a hug & a peck on his cheek ♥  On 28th, he sang 10 beautiful songs that melt the hearts of the people of Indonesia. On 29th, David Choi sang another 10 beautiful songs that not only melt the hearts of his fans, but also touched my heart :') During his concert, he checked his twitter and miraculously, he noticed mine and even asked to identify myself :') He then said Hi to me :D  After his concert, I went up to the artist room just to have a few last words with him. It was really great to speak to him in person! I took another picture with him, gave him my pick, talked a bit, he signed on all my tickets & a letter....

This ain't goodbye

Time flies. Nobody is denying that fact. ♥ We had fun last night :) Though we went wandering around a few blocks, carrying bottles of beer and wine, just to find a suitable place for us to settle down and have a drink. It's a great experience though, having to walk from a restaurant in a house estate to the main street outside xD Oh well, looking back at how we first met... It's been a year and a half since we first met. But it seems like we've been friends for years, really. This journey may have ended, but a new chapter is about to be unfold. All of us may not end up in the same school, same class as before. Some may take different pathways.. But at the end, we would still remember each other, and those fun times we've had.. Those hardships we've been through together.... We have to meet again, some time in the future. It's not goodbye :) It's just 'see you next time' :)

6 Important Life Lessons

  Read this in Facebook and i really find this interesting, so i've decided to post it here :) Lesson 1 A man is getting into the shower just as his wife is finishing up her shower when the doorbell rings. The wife quickly wraps herself in a towel and runs downstairs. When she opens the door, there stands Bob, the next door neighbor. Before she says a word, Bob says, “I’ll give you $800 to drop that towel.” After thinking for a moment, the woman drops her towel and stands naked in front of Bob. After a few seconds, Bob hands her $800 dollars and leaves. The woman wraps back up in the towel and goes back upstairs. When she gets to the bathroom, her husband asks,… “Who was that?” “It was Bob the next door neighbor,” she replies. “Great!” the husband says, “Did he say anything about the $800 he owes me?” Moral of the story: If you share critical information pertaining to credit and risk with your shareholders in time, you may be in a  position to prevent avoidable exposu...

18 days  to  FREEDOM ! And this time, i really mean FREEDOM !!! IF everything goes smoothly, i'd be heading straight to Melbourne in July :) The apartment is already ready, school admission has been done, offer received, and i'm gonna have a student visa very soon :) I remember how reluctant i was to enter Monash College in Jakarta.. Because of the new environment, new people and new teachers i'm gonna meet.. Everything's new, making me feel so insecure and uncomfortable. But look at me now.. All comfortable, so comfy that it felt almost like i'm in my comfort zone. Full of joy and laughter everyday, enjoying every single lectures... Though i can't deny that some can be pretty boring at times.. Especially when their voice are so soothing that it could literally make us doze off.. But well, it's gonna be approx.2 more weeks before i have to bid farewell to Monash College. I swear i would miss all my lecturers, both bad and good. I can't h...

Bruno Mars Concert Live In Jakarta 5th April 2011 My busy week is finally over, but more have yet to come.. I hope i could cope with the weeks ahead.. It's not gonna be easy. I need to be disciplined. On the side note, I didn't regret spending my Tuesday night watching Bruno Mars concert instead of studying for my statistics test. His voice was simply amazing, totally sound like an angel singing. The crowd was stunning too, singing every single song of his and swaying to the music. Everything went extremely smooth, no one was hurt, nothing bad happened. He made my night felt so perfect, so perfect that I didn't want the night to end. Seriously, I don't mind watching his concert again! Hehe, I love you Bruno Mars :)

Pray. I'm not a regular blogger and I probably don't have a regular follower anyway. Nobody really visits my blog, which is an advantage for me cos it would mean that I have all the rights and freedom to write whatever that's in my mind. The main point of blogging now is not about that anyway. It's about my current life; how different it is compared to before. Right now, I spent most of my time holding educational books, writing notes in preparation for tests and exams, and typing out essays for assignments to be handed in weeks later. Life's never been this busy before. At least not for me, not in my life, ever. What can I expect, honestly. A relaxed, slacking life in College? Nah, that's not gonna happen. Final exams are in 2 months' time. My final hurdle before I enter University Year 2. Things are getting harder for me. And I know it won't get any easier as time goes closer to the exam week. I need to get myself prepared by studying...

He cared for me. He cooked for me. He brought me to dinner. He sent me home. He shared his life experience. He is a nice guy. But he is not you. And I'm glad that he's not you. I will never fall in love with you again, ever . He deserves a chance, but it's just not the right time yet..

Learn to let go of the past, and recognize that every day won’t be sunny. And when you find yourself lost in the darkness and despair, remember it’s only in the black of night that you see the stars, and those stars will lead you back home. So don’t be afraid to make mistakes, to stumble and fall, because most of the time, the greatest rewards come from doing the things that scare you the most. Maybe you’ll get everything you wish for. Maybe you’ll get more than you ever could have imagined. Who knows where life will take you. The road is long and in the end, the journey is the destination. - tumblr

HAPPY NEW YEAR 2011, EVERYONE :) 2010 was one of the best years of my life. Not look forward to it being over.. But the clock won't stop ticking and life has to go on. A simple yet hard-to-achieve wish. It's 2011 now. Time to let go of 2010. Keep the memories and move on with your life. I don't know what 2011 brings but i'm hoping that it would be full of joys and laughters. Amen. May God bless every single living thing on this planet called Earth :) And i hope God would grant my wishes .. I'll be going back to Jakarta tomorrow morning.. I know i've been in Singapore for quite some time, and i know that it still wouldn't be enough if i stay longer. Cos that's life. Nothing is ever enough. Nothing is ever satisfying. Therefore, i'm not requesting much. I just hope that i could come back to Singapore again on February. That'll be great, and it'll be my official farewell to my friends.
