hey there!
its been two years since i've updated this blog.
not exactly the best diary writer either. arghs.
anyway, i was bored, so i decided that i would open up my blogger page and read.
after reading the page, i decided, "hey! perhaps i should just write an entry."

let me give you an update.
I've recently graduated from uni and am now a degree holder!
sounds so awesome isn't it? :D
i'm back to work and am still surprised that i love my job (though i complain quite a bit about it at times)

ever since graduating, i've been thinking about what i want to do and i find that i'm rather confused.
i realise that i don't know what i want to do. i mean, i used to think that i'd be married and settled by now, but look at me! things have changed and my ideas and feelings towards things have now changed too.
i don't really feel comfortable with these 'unfocused' goals.
things that i want now are:
1) to travel
2) to have fun (while doing anything)
3) to live life
4) to do some humanitarian work
5) maybe find someone who loves me along the way

and seeing this, compared to:
1) have a family
2) get married by 24
3) have 4 kids
4) have a good job
5) save as much money as possible

i know my priorities have changed.
and i do not know if that is a good or bad thing?
being focused in life in good, but what is the good of it without enjoying it?
and now, i am sorta stuck between two, in which i feel that i go either one or the other.
and this total opposite traits make me feel restless now.
i know i should find balance. however, at this point, i can't feel it and find it.
this worries me.

anyway, that's just some rants. one of my moments i guess.
so, for now i bid you good night and sleep tight as i'm going to sleep now.
see you in the morning!

Dear Diary,

I'm back after a break of a month and a half.
Perth is getting warm, and the highest i've experience is 37 degrees celcius.
warm warm, but the nights are still cool..
am going home soon!

really looking forward to seeing my family and friends! :D
time really flies!

It's funny how people always say to give things time.
how time really changes things and situations and people.
ok. maybe time doesn't change people, but more like people change through time.
sometimes you feel like you know someone, but through time, people change and sometimes you find yourself wondering who is that someone in front of you now.. be it for good or for bad. then you ask yourself now, are you judging/ judgemental? haiz. so many questions, yet sometimes the answers can be so confusing.
on a sideline, sometimes time really helps in some situations.

oh wells.

signing off!
take care!

loves,
gerry <3

my room is swamped with research papers and articles!
socio essay is draining..
not sure how to start.
i thought that going through uni may not be that difficult, then you start to realise that you're in trouble when you realise you don't know how to write a proper essay, realise that your command in english is like zip!(as compared with the people here).
and then you feel well, slightly embrassed or ashamed that you don't know enough.
ok. maybe english command is still not too bad, but i have to admit i am having problems with writing a proper essay. will need to get help tomorrow from the library..
do you feel that way at times?
hm.

anyway, the wind is blowing very strongly outside my window now.
am feeling relieved that i am inside a warm shelter.
am currently doing a socio essay, and we are talking about inequality.
was researching some articles and i really wonder sometimes,
how do the poor survive in this world where everything is so.. er.. not sure what the word to use is, but i'll use... expensive.
i mean, you think about it, i'm earning a good income every month, and sometimes, i do admit that i do think, why can't i get more?
but, what about the poor? what do they live on? i mean, finding every 1kg of recycled goods gives them about $2. how do they find homes to sleep in? food to last them the day?
i really wonder..
hm.

i guess we should learn to be greatful for what we have..
never take anything for granted yeah?
someone should give me a slap in the head (like how Gibbs in NCIS slaps DiNozzo) if i ever forget that one day.
:)

darn, i'm really addicted to NCIS.
I've completed season 1-3.
contemplating if i should get season 4-6.
hahaha..

oh wells!
shall get back to doing my work!
another mid sem test and an essay submission next week~
then another week of holidays!
yeah!

:D

ok!
take care!
loves! <3

am considering try to grow a plant, or maybe like buy a plant and try to maintain it.
and ... maybe learn some gardening skills with it.
what do you think?
hm.
but what happens to my plant after 1 year?
will it be irressponsible of me to leave it with my landlords?
i think there is also no such thing as plant adoption right?
hm.
oh wells.

sometimes, i wonder if i have judged a person too fast or a situation.
and i realise that perhaps i have.
without knowing that i had.
it doesn't feel great or anything good at all to come to that realisation.
and now, i don't really know what to do.

i guess i'll figure what to do in time.
and learn from my mistakes.

have to learn to move forward.
looking backwards is ok at times,
but when i start to hold on too much of it,
sometimes i don't seem to be moving forward at all.
and only, to find myself standing where i always was.

i guess time will tell and help me.
have to learn to look up and move forward.
:D

oh wells!
school is into it's second week!
and i'm procrastinating my studies!
need to keep on motivating myself to study.
it's not easy to keep that motivation.
but i know i can do it!
just need to move my lazy bum.
hahahaha..

am missing home.
everyday.
but knowing that, coming here has made me grown.
bit by bit i guess.

by the way, does waking up at 10am-12pm everyday make me a lazy bum?
hm.
i wonder.

oh wells!
LOVE YOU!
take care!
*hugs*
