THE JOURNEY
of how far we came, in words of mine.

It was all in His plans for me to study in Sydney. Now that I'm here, it's up to me to shine His light.

FLIGHT 818 .

FLY AWAY TO SYD
on the journey to Sydney.

4 years in Sydney is an awefully long time.
Catch me before I fly away, cause I'm having the time of my life.
Friends come and go, but the close ones never part irregardless of the distance.

At the end of the day, the ones that make me smile from my heart are the ones that are closest to me. Even though we are miles apart, your every word puts a smile on my face. And that's what I love about life.

-

When I draw away from you, its because I do not want to hurt you. Being too close to me has no benefits. You'll hardly feel appreciated. You really need to be very patient. It's so hard to gauge my mood swings and you can hardly avoid it. The closer you are to me, the frequency of encountering the full force of my mood swings occurs. So just stay away from me, and observe me from afar.


16:29

I have lost the sparkles in my eyes.
:(
Replacing it is the big and ugly eye bags.

-

Read one of my friend's blog recently. Every post is so emo, melancholic, etc. Sigh. When will we get past that stage in life?

I will be rewarded for all my hardwork.
Yes, I'll work hard for my reward.

I know I'm in your plans, but I just do not know where it leads me. I seem like I'm carving out my own route when it's just you opening the right doors for me.

--

I'm here for a reason.

--

To know that I've not realize my full potential is an exciting yet, daunting thought.

--

Newtown
Leichardt
Brighton-Le-Sands

The places I've been to today.

Mexican
Italian Ice-cream

The food I ate today.

Newton's Cacino
Bar Italia
Signature Brasserie

The restaurants I visited today.

To sum it all up:
:D

So full and bloated.

You only know me because you read my blog.

What if I didn't have a blog?

Would you even have a hint of what I'm thinking about?

Bleeding Love.

My heart is definitely bleeding right now. I can feel it in my bones. The feeling is starting to get a bit overwhelming.

Should i just ignore it?

on the ferry. Sydney Opera House.

Overlooking Sydney
Manly
Overlooking Manly.
Gateway to Heaven!



02:34

The Lord said to me, be adventurous and you'll be rewarded. Be daring, and I'll watch your back and be with you every step of the way.

And there I was, on a friday morning, taking my first ever ferry ride to Manly. Armed with my sunnies, a bottle of water and 20bucks, I set off for Manly - Seven Miles from Sydney, A Thousand Miles from Care.

I decided to be different and skip Manly Beach first. Went on a TEN KILOMETRES walk from Manly Wharf to the Spit Bridge. It's called the Manly Scenic Walk. Haha. I swear, anyone who didn't take this walk won't know how beautiful Manly is! The walk was tough, especially so since I wasn't in proper footwear (was wearing slippers!) But i'm not complaining, cause I was my 'Gateway to Heaven'!! (: SO SO pretty.

And just when I was nearly the end of my walk, I met a kind soul who helped show me where the bus stop back to Manly was. He paid for my bus fare and even offered to give me a lift back home to Maroubra! (: Awesome Scottish. Jeff, that was his name.

Viewed Manly Beach and The Corso. Pretty pretty. Lovely shops and clothing lines. I was so tempted to get something from there.

Everyone there was so friendly. All the dogs there didn't have a leash on them, and they just ran carefreely. (: Plus, they didn't even make an attempt to bite/lick you! Haha.

Well, I came home exhausted. Legs sore from cuts, bruises and blisters.

But I definitely want to go back to Manly again to complete the other walking trails.

Just a preview of what I'm embarking on...

Below is the desciption of my Economics major - Financial Economics:

Financial Economics is concerned with understanding how financial instruments are priced in markets and how individuals and firms manage financial risk.

Markets for financial instruments arise because some firms and individuals want to borrow while others want to save. A large corporation, for example, may borrow funds to purchase new plant and equipment by issuing further stock while an individual may save by purchasing stocks or government bonds. Markets for financial instruments also arise because firms and individuals want to manage financial risk. For example, a large corporation may bet against the risk of large fluctuations in the Australian - U.S. dollar exchange rate by selling its goods by way of futures contracts. Understanding how the prices of financial instruments are determined in the market place is a central concern of financial economics, along with the design of new financial derivatives. The area of financial economics that deals with the study of real-world data is known as financial econometrics.

Financial econometrics is concerned with the statistical analysis of financial data and testing the real-world applicability of asset-pricing theories. This major provides students with a thorough understanding of the economic principles that underlie the pricing and allocative role of all financial assets, whether they are stocks, bonds, futures or options.

Now you know why my friends call me an ah tiong! haha.

I couldn't remember what I wrote to you in that letter. It was written in a hurry. But I moved you to tears.

Whoa.
I never knew I had/still had that ability.
To know that I possess such prowess is a scary thought.

I had never meant to hurt you in any way.

-

I'm changing. Again. Felt as thought I've matured another 2 yrs. Haha. Maybe not. I take back that line.

Who's able keep up with me?


01:07

The reason why I do not go for accounting lectures.

I haven't been going for Accounting lectures the past 3 weeks.
The reason being, the lecturer is a Singaporean.

Boring; Mundane; Repetitive.

I'm better off reading the textbook on my own.

I left Singapore to study in Sydney for a more dynamic learning experience, and all I got was another Singaporean lecturer.

Sigh.

This doesn't justify the high school fees that I'm paying.

what's on my mind now?

Tau suan came to my rescue!

Yay!

Imagine a bowl of hot tau suan delivered to your doorstep at 330am in the morning....

-drools.

And, I really fell sick from the lack of sleep! :(

And, how can people not know that 'han zi' = sweet potato???

Sheesh


03:26

I'm falling sick.
I'm very hungry now.
It's 320am in the morning.
I'm very tired.
But I can't sleep.
I wished I had fever now, so that I don't need to go to school in 9 hours time.

I might have used up all the reserved strength in me already.

In turmoil.

There is beauty in the tragedies that we are facing.

That's wht I learnt at Church today.

Yes, and I thank God for the way I turned out and for moulding me into who I am today.

Don't attempt to escape it.
Don't denial it.

Heaven never said it forbids.
