And also my beloved family for the lovely surprises that they have given me.
See you all so very soon

Geraldton
HI ALL!!!
lol!! Am missing everyone. Giving a special shout out to Da Jie and Er Jie back in Perth. Miss you both so much.
Geraldton is a really cool place (literally). Upon arrival (after a 6.5 hours pleasant coach ride - made a couple of new friends), I was thinking 'mini-Perth'. So, the minute we got here, our (I came to Gero with a course-mate/ friend, Britt) lovely supervisor picked us up from the coach-port. We were then taken on a 'tour' around the town. Then to the nurses quarters where we were staying for the next 7 weeks.
The nurses quarters are actually better than I expected. Kind of expected it to be a little more run-down with very little access to crockeries and the likes. But contrary to that, the only thing I disliked was the yucky green carpet. lol. The nurses quarters are extremely old.
Sunday. Both Britt and I went to Sun City Church (after Britt helped with getting details - thanks Britt) where we met a lovely lady name Sarah. Sarah is the best. We hung out with her and her friends (people from Lighthouse Church) the whole Sunday. First, we went to the beach via 4WD. It was AWESOME! Had a bit of a trouble when I was out at sea though (almost drowned...Was saved by lovely Sarah - She's my life saver). Was going to tell you all the story, but it takes far too long.
Anyways. Went to watch Slumdog Millionaire with the new friends that night and it was the best!
1st week at work: -
Have always been a little weary bout hospitals, so I found it a little intimidating. And the fact that Britt prefers to do wards (hospital) which allows me to do home visits allowed me to 'settle down' a bit better. On the Tues, we attended cell (Sun City church) and again lovely Sarah drove us. It was great meeting everyone and getting to know them And last night, we attended youth group (Lighthouse Church). Again super fun. But I still miss Fyre.
The best part about everything is probably the girls who live in the nurses quarters with Britt and I. They're the loveliest bunch. Carol - always making us laugh. lol. O, and also the independent living bit - the buying of food and cooking for oneself.
Overall, Geraldton has been great. Had a little drama but it is great. Being able to live independently and budget and cook for myself and being so welcomed by Geraldton. For everyone out there, visit Geraldton. It may seem far and small but it is growing and it is very welcoming.

Life...
Hi all,
I know I've said that I possibly won't be blogging till after Geraldton. But. Sigh
Cuzzie was right about using blogging to release feelings.
Why can't everything go my way? Or go a 'happy' way.
I hope God finds a guy that loves/ likes me as much as this guy. Sigh!

Geraldton
The day is finally arriving. This post is 6 days early but anticipating next week to be chockas. Yup, cos I'll have classes and I have to tidy up my room and so on n so forth. lol.
So, Geraldton. To all of you who have no idea where Geraldton is, it is 5 hrs by car, 6.5 hrs by coach and 1 hr and 10 mins by airplane, north of Perth. Yup, it is super far. lol. To me anyways. (To the people in Kuching) Like dad says it's from Kuching to Miri. Yeh.
So why am I going all the way to Geraldton? Well, cos of prac/ work experience/ fieldwork. For 7 weeks I will be living up there. Good and bad I suppose and I'm actually looking forward to it. Wonder how much it'd cost me living up there.
Also, am anticipating time spent with God =D.
So, the next post will probably be up after 8 weeks. Reason being, I have to buy internet while I'm up there. So I'll spend a minimum amount for internet as it's not necessarily essential.
Till then, have fun and I'll miss all you Perth-ians!!

Life
Sigh..life has been hard this past couple weeks. And I'm anticipating that it ain't gona get easier. Sigh.
I got a rose from a friend last Sunday. And I was looking at it. And was thinking ' it's so fragile'. In a few days time, it'll probably die. Whither away. Then I thought of my life and was contemplating whether I was more like the beautiful rose before me or rather like the rose when it's withering. I guess I'm yet to know where I stand at the moment.
But I realized that I have not grown. Yes, my faith is greater now and I am stronger. But I still have not grown. This year, growth. Maybe it's time to find a mentor too.

Random thought
Hrmm..It's actually not really a random thought but it is still kinda.
It seems that as human beings, we tend to want what we can't have. For example, I know that I can't have lots and lots of clothes but I still want them. And it's like Adam and Eve. They know they can't eat the fruit but once tempted to have something they can't have, they give in. I guess, that is why it says 'Flee from temptation' not walk away, but flee.
Yeah. Actually, it is something I am going through in life. My close friends would know I guess. And I shan't say more than that. =D
