too dumb!

We finally make it at 10.45 @ McD. Had a Sausage McMuffin and may i warn u beforehand The Coffee that comes with it is undrinkable! Which taught me a lesson that i have to order a tea wherever i go unless they have good coffee to offer.

I miss my Flat White so much! No shadows of it here at all! Ohhhhh...Affogato and Iced Coffee :(

We sat there i think for about 2 hours plus. This friend of mine is well known for her weirdness.
In a lot of senses that i could not describe.

Rmb when i once came out with a Poem by Frost called The Road Not Taken. Frost said there are 2 roads diverged in the woods. One taken by most of the ppl and the other one less travelled by.

I obviously took the one most travelled by which i think or most of us think is normal which is what we should follow like...Study hard, Get that piece of paper,Graduate with flying colours,Build Your Career, Climb the Corporate Ladder, Find a partner whom u will spend the rest of your life with, Have Children, Aged and Go to heaven.

She on the other hand took the one less travelled by. Basically she took the path not taken by me(in actual fact the majority of us). She stopped studying after a year in Uni. And she is now enjoying her life. She told me she found a happier herself ever since she stopped studying. She now joined an org. by someone whom she respects. Someone whom she thinks is Great and Perfect who actually Enlighthened her about Life. One who told her why the road not taken by me is a better one.

I always wonder if i did not study HSC and then The Sydney Uni Commerce Program i will never ended up having my personal history with a total of 2 years upon my total lifetime spent in Sydney. What would I turn into if i didn't even make myself to HSC.

Would i be working now?
Where?
And how much am i earning?
What would i turn into?
Am i gonna be in so much debt now?

I just realise i can't finish repaying.

I was talking to a close friend on Valentine's Day about how much debt we owe ppl around us on the way home after the movie Prime. I got to know how she got into the debt with her aunt and uncle who stays in Casino ( dun misunderstood, it's a name of a place). How much so that it's hard when her aunt doesnt have any children. How much so that her aunt wants to pay for her studies. How much so that the aunt wants her to stay with them in the jungle( i mean it literally, cus there are no water supply, no electricity, no car access and please hike).

Everyone has got their stories to tell. Whether long or short interesting or exciting. Whether we like it or not. Whether they wanna let u know or not. I once was so close to a friend that there are no gaps between us. One fine day a mere minor misunderstandings occured just because of a third party. We (3 of us) got into trouble. We stopped talking to each other for approx a year.
How much trouble in that i lose hope, give up my faith, made a tough decision to leave Penang.

If i did not make that decision i think i will be most likely ended up in Inti College M'sia or Monash KL Campus or mayb finished everything up at Disted College Penang. ...and also ended up just like now; remained unemployed not having to blog(as i learn to blog in Syd),not having a tab Sydney on my msn,not having friends like K,W,M,J,V,M,T,N,Z,L,H,Z,S(those who i could think of),not learning how to make the saltiest Kimchi,not attending my handsome lecturer's lecture,not knowing Sydney as how i know it now,not having a lifetime experience.

Which means that i have a different story to tell. How i spent my time in KL or in good old Penang, how i might i have friends like "duno who", how i would drive like a typical reckless driver @ 110 km/hour and not 40km/hour and it broke down!,how i would know how to go around KL driving, how i would know KL more in depth. There are just so much to tell. So distinct and yet memorable.

I have to admit why i left Penang. How happy i was when i was set ready to leave. Leave all these behind. How happy my life was for the past 2 years.

orh... Well i did not regret taking this path. Although i took the normal path that everyone thinks is Good. or Should I Make A Difference?

And i know i cannot just leave all these. But it's the past and should i not dig it out from where i buried it long ago. And now i think things are getting normal again. We still talk from sensitive issues to non sensitive issues. Although not as close as how we used to be but i prefer this one. Well contained. Not too close....not too much arguments.

Whatever it is...May she found a better path whether she decides to apply for a PR in Oz or come back to Penang, I wish her Best of Luck.

"things may looked tough in the outside, but it may be fragile inside"


After the meeting with my friend I bought lunch for mum and sister. I bought myself my fav Oreo McFlurry. I realise i paid the McFlurry for nothing when i reached home. I am so sad. I miss my McFlurry. :'(

The way that most people choose doesn't mean is a good way/ happy way. It depends what measurement you use to measure your life. What you want in your life. Actually my thinking is a bit weird too...I have a thinking same as your fren sometimes, I just want a happy, enjoy life. We will be only on this world for a few decades, we should make ourselves happy. However, sometimes we need to think about the reality of this world too...sigh...life is complicated...

Yeah tht's true. Although it looks as though it is a normal way but it depends on how you do about it. Since we have already taken this route let's make the best out of it. So far i have not regretted taking this road because i had happy moments and really hope for a better one ahead or at least not worst than what i had.
hmm..be a little bit more realistic i think. :D
