November in a glance

It's hard to believe it's already end of November! And indeed, this is the most exciting month since I'm ever here in Australia.

*******

28th Nov - House/ Bondi

Just had my very first thanksgiving dinner with the girls. It was amazing! We talked about lotsa stuff - from what we've had changed since we are here to what are we going to be like in 5 years to when last God is spoken to you, etc. It was absolutely profound moments and I enjoyed the "family-time" a lot.

Went to Bondi beach with asian friends this morning. We climb the cliff and took lots of pictures like the crazy tourists =P We don't get to go to the beach though cos it was raining..no, it's puoring!! Thank God I brought my little red umbrella - where i was been claimed not-a-women-of-faith earlier by bringing it - But anyhow I'm glad I did, at least I don't get soaked like others does.

I've learned something today - We have been taught to listen to the right voice, but somehow I find it hard especially when people around you are speaking the bad's. But it's totally depends on how you going to react and say no to the negative voice from others.


27th Nov - Sydney Convention Center

It's grad dinner (well,i'm not graduating, yet :P) So, we got to dress up and have a little prom night. It was so much fun. The food was so damn good! ..although there's something went wrong with our table that the main course start super duber late - when everybody is about to have their dessert and some of us still waiting for the main course - that's how bad it is! Anyway, besides that, it's all good. We have a little dance session, what I can say is just I had so much fun. And we took lotsa pictures, some of them are graduating and leaving Australia for good. Geez, i just can't believe how fast time travels! The most regretful thing of the night is ------------ I didn't get to take pictures with ps.Brian and Bobbie Houston & Rueben Morgan!!!!! I thought I gonna to have chance to take with them some other time since I'm not leaving Australis yet - but I just realise how stupid I was to not taking pictures with them - cos yesterday night would be the golden opportunity to take picture without feeling awkward at all (if compare seeing them in church, or conference, or backstage)!!

24th Nov - Kellyville
Starts my new job - cleaning the house!! Woohooo!!! How exciting is it - not..hehe.. but they pay is not bad - $50 for 4 hours cleaning. I suppose to be there before 10am and when I got to the bus stop, I just realised that the bus is actually coming at 10:05am ==" I'm going to be so late! Then I decided to walk 30mins to another bus stop which I know there will be have more bus going to that place. I got into the bus by 9:40 - praise the Lord!! But I missed the stop and the bus take me to another place where I need to walk another 30mins to get to the house I about to clean. And I got attacked by a bird (yes, a BIRD) on the way walking to the house. Ahhhh~~~ How great is that! One word - Nice!

23th Nov - Home(sick)
It's my Uncle wedding in Indonesia. I'm so sad that I have to miss it :( I really wish I were there spending time with my family...sob sob.. kinda home sick lately.

20th Nov - Parteeeeey

Last day of tutorial. Oh well, it doesn't like a tutorial anymore, anyways.. we have had a party instead.. hahaha! We have the secret angels pressie exchange thingy going on. So we all bought a $5 gift to exchange with someone - and they have a rule that we are actually can steal other's gift of we don't like ours. There's a guy bought a $25 DVD - all wanted it! And finally I got it - it has been stole from many people and finally I got it...hahaha... Some of them must be hated me. But who cares, somebody gotto steal it anyways :P Well, The DVD comes with a book and I give it back to the guy who bought the gift.

19th Nov - Pancakes on the Rock

Housemates day out!! Woot Woot :P We went to this panceke house in Parramatta. We all dreassed up like we are having a semi-formal dinner. For real, this is our first time going out for dinner all together. I shared Pizza and Blackforest Pancakes with Sophie. It was so the very GOOD! esp the pancekes... yum!!

And then there's something "memorable" thing happened - Kristin forgot to turn off the car head light and the battery is flat that she couldn't start her engine. We - wearing heels - pushing the car to another end to get the battary from Katelyn's car. There's some guys come around and ask how's thing going and we totally think that they are going to help. But heck no! They just came and leave us - 8 girls - standing in a petrol station all by ourselves. How's that? Aussie guys just not helpful at all >.< class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">fbook, then you should have a good laugh in how we hilarious we were.

12th Nov - Lili & Katie's farewell
One word - FUN.. Ok, three words - FUN + GOOD FOOD :P It's like a asian gathering. They cooked phenomenal indonesia food and it was really yummy. After the dinner, we sang karaoke - with lili playing the piano. We choose those songs that has translated in many languages and sang in our own language - e.g. Shout to the Lord. I think we are shouting rather than singing though.. hahaha.. and the funniest thing is all those who gone crazy singing are all NONE vocal student! The vocal students are all sitting aside and watching us - pastoral, TV & children ministry students singing like cow! Well, what can I say, we just beat the vocal students.. hahaha :P

2nd Nov - Darling Harbour

It's 25th Anniversary of Hillsong church and we have this humongous event going on at the Darling Harbour! They have a floating stage on the water and having a church service there - how COOL is that. You see thousands of people gather together worshipping God at the heart of the city. We praise and worship right besides the harbour. Man.. that was really phenomenal!!

*******

Alright, I think that is it for the moment. Oh well.. I wanted to put some pictures to show you guys - maybe I will add it beginning of Dec when the internet goes more faster downloading pictures.

PS: I'll be moving out to a nearer and cheaper room next week. Already felt missing the house I'm living in right now *sob sob*

中年狂躁症?!


今天外面风很大。
都快夏天了,可天气还是很不稳定。
时冷时热的, 我的心情也跟着上上下下。

这个月发生了很多事情 - 很多值得纪念和写下来的事情。
可能今晚放工了就要从11月2 号 开始写了……哈哈哈

有时候,我真的很想家。
有时候,我还是会怀疑我到底有没有做错了决定。
有时候,我还是会忍不住地比较。
有时候,我很想就这样放弃了。
有时候,我还是觉得平平凡凡的不是也很好吗。

嗯……难道这就是要步入中年的预兆?!?!
*这个时候,电脑里传来了赞美之泉 的 ‘常常喜乐’这首歌……汗~*
PS: 我还是很常听中文歌的,真的。

我相信的, 你相信吗?
*这个时候,换了歌‘专心仰望耶稣’……汗汗~*


GO GO, 去工作了噢~
