Vitamin C's Graduation

I thought this should be the most appropriate song to describe my feelings about the photos and graduation atmosphere. And my love for all friends out there who have accompanied me these years.

No matter how many times I listen to this song, it nvr fails to put tears to my eyes. I cried so hard when I first heard the song, that was when I left my old school for the first time. Thereafter, everytime I listen to it, my eyes will be wetty. Yes, it's my favorite song and I listen to it whenever I need a good release of tears and feelings. Doesn't mean it's a sad song to me though, it's a song which touch me most. I can't help it when the song is playing while looking through the photos. I'm a freak! Sentimental freak!

But I think the song now suits most to my university graduation. The lyrics are so detail and made me felt more about it.

"And so we talked all night about the rest of our lives

Where we're gonna be when we turn 25

I keep thinking times will never change

Leep on thinking things will always be the same

But when we leave this year we won't be coming back

No more hanging out cause we're on a different track"

It's so true! Well maybe you're not feeling as much or even think it's just a normal song, but at least to me it's a really special song!

Great people, great memories!

Beware! This is a long one...Read at your own risk!

The last sentence in my previous entry was: 'I need to recharge my battery. So it'd better be a good one!'

Now that I'm back, I'm telling you, the trip to Melbourne was more than a good one! In fact, it was the greatest ever! I'm missing it, I'm lovin' it, and I'm sad to leave! It was so hard for me to leave Melbourne! Leaving all my memories and people behind. I've nvr expect to fall so much for the place this time. My love and feelings for the place has once again increased!

Touched down at the airport itself was an excitement to me already. Looking at the familiar customs and environment, I'm feeling it. Danielle was sweet to pick us up from the airport. Then, entering my ex-apartment Concept Blue, gosh! I miss it so much! From cherry picking to wine tasting, cheese bite, strawberries, steaks, chinese food etc etc...We had it all!!!

Was anticipating Franco and his mum's arrival to Melbourne the 2nd day. Before that, how could I miss out meeting Richie first!!! He's still the same, same old face, slightly thinner, and his same old jokes. I was really happy to see him again, finally! Then, it was Katie. Still sweet as ever, wearing the all time PK smile^^ And finally, Franco is back!!! Yay!!! We threw him a surprise bday visit at his apartment. I bet he's darn surprise and touch! All just for you baby!

Next few days was spent bringing our parents around and busy preparing for the convo night. We took graduation photos on the convo day itself. All of us went to RMIT early in the morning. Gosh! That irritating gown took us more than half an hour to wear. Pinning here and there to make sure we are at our best looks. We felt like a star, the cameras were like snapping every second. And Sze Sze, thanks for coming back!!! Rosa, Billy, Karen, Pret's sister etc, thanks all for being our camera man. Started at RMIT, then headed to Dockland for more photos. It was nice to have some of our photos taken along the wharf, with the coolest cruises and thousands of jelly fish^^

We were dead tired after almost half a day of photo session. Before we could take a good rest, it was time to leave for Telstra Dome- the convo night!!! Almost the whole city was covered with RMIT Graduands. Some marched to the stadium, lazy peoplel ike us chose to take a tram. Coz it was darn hot on that day. But other than the day, Melbourne was darn cold! 12 degrees during summer? What the heck!!! Anyway, I felt so cool as I entered the stadium. As if we are attending a concert. Was darn nervous when I walked up the stage, all I can hear was shoutings and cheerings, didn't even look at the camera posing my V pose^^

Apparently, many told me that they envied RMIT students very much because RMIT is making the convo so grand and prestige. Police have to patrolled around the city for RMIT Graduands to parade etc. Oh well! That's why RMIT rox!!! After all, it really is the people who are there to graduate with you that matters. It is the people who have shared the same amount of time and effort to make this day more memorable and happening! Thank you all for the wishes, flowers, presents and presence to the ceremony!!!

I'm currently looking through the photos taken in Melbourne. It's hillarious, all of us are still the same. You have all again gave me laughters and memories which I can nvr erased from my mind. I'm missing all of you already! I woke up this morning and realised, I'm not in Melbourne, felt a sudden emptiness when I thought about it. Hope my blues will dissappear soon.

To all of you, best of luck in your future upcomings, we will now all strive hard in our career, another new stage of life begins from now!

Decision making

I'm very excited about my trip back to Melbourne this coming Saturday. Every morning I wake up, I jst somehow felt happy as each morning marks a day nearer to my return to Melbourne. Been planning our stay there and where to go since two weeks ago. Believe me, I've nvr felt so excited and looking forward to a place. Somehow I guess the city jst reminds me of many memories. Sometimes I thought to myself, 'Hmmm, maybe I shld have stayed there for another year to further my studies.' Oh well...

Last week was my weakest thought week. I was thrown into a situation whereby I need to make a decision. It's hard, I was disturbed by it and I can feel my moodswing. People around me suffer from it, and I felt terribly sorry. After much consultation, I've made up my mind. My heart was in total pain when I said no today. As though I've been stabbed on my heart. I can feel how much I want to say yes deep down inside, but I couldn't. It's painful. It's hard. I hope my patience for now will gain me positive return in the future. Well, I guess you jst need to choose between passion and reality. But I was really happy that someone actually noticed my passion. It was the best compliment on me.

Just a short entry to update my life lately. Besides working, there's nothing much happening. Occasional ups and downs, like a rollercoaster, and that's how life goes! But there's always this someone who can cheer me up regardless of any moment. At least I know the next 14 days will definitely boost my adrenaline to the top level. I'm looking forward to meeting all of u again, my first ever formal convo which marks a perfect full stop to my student identity. I need this getaway trip to recharge my battery. So it'd better be a good one^^!!!
