Self-Motivation

Some things that I’ve decided to do…

• Quit my job in July if everything goes smoothly according to my plan
• Devote myself totally into the job during work hours and learn what supposed to be learnt within this period of time before I quit
• Devote myself into the plan at the right time and work everything out consecutively
• Lesser updates/time spend on my blog but will try to do it once in a while
• Move to a new place near/within Melbourne City compound

I’ve did a lot of things since I came back to Melbourne, I can’t keep up with the updates as I’m not as hardworking with my photos nowadays. Apparently, the main highlights that I wanted to update are Jay’s Birthday which was last month, the twins C back to Melbourne for holiday last week, Nicholas back to Melbourne for holiday currently, Ting Ting Estelle a stewardess friend of mine dropped by Melbourne again yesterday and my trip to Bangkok and Kuala Lumpur when I had my 6 weeks holiday.

Just a quick update, Melbourne weather turned into ice temperature yesterday and I almost froze when I walk along Swanston Street, everyone on the road still seems very energetic towards the changes. People try to enjoy this moment - going steam boat for dinner, enjoying ice creams that won’t melt and boozing away to welcome the cold! I went steamboat last night and blardy China steamboat shop is so full of people and earning a lot of money that even the waiter is so full of crap attitudes. I can only remember asking them repeatedly the same question - where’s my balls fish balls that we ordered!?

I think I’m still an alcoholic inside out, I’m fine today but yesterday was terrible. I woke up with a bad headache so I called off half day work but still can’t recover after I rested, then I came into the office with the bad headache – suffered almost the whole day in the office until my momentum touches the golden liquid and then feel it down the throat, and I know I find paradise as my headache gone right away! Gosh, if only I can drink some alcohol during work, that’ll be the best! …

Okay probably not~

Midweek Joke

Something that my colleague forwarded to me and I thought it was quite hilarious when I read it – the title reads “Adult Questions and Answers just for Fun”. It's a long mail and most of the questions and answers read something like this…

Q: What goes in dry, comes out wet, and gives warm satisfaction?
A: A teabag.

Nothing too special but there’s one that I find interesting about -

Around JB Town

Johor Bahru, also spelled Johor Baharu, Johor Baru, ("Baru" means "new" in Malay) or Johore Bahru and abbreviated as JB, is the capital city of Johor and is a town where I’m born.

When I was in JB, I did many things - I had all my favourite food like Bak Kut Teh almost everyday, Kuey Tiao Kia, Wonton Mee, Kuey Tiao soup and Dry Noodles with Abalone in Soup! I decided not to take any picture of them after my friends said I look like a silly tourist after I took the best chicken rice in JB... Fine!

Give me a delicious meal, lovely soup and pass me the spoon!! And I’m a happy man. I’ll summarize some other things that I’ve did in JB -

Celebrated sneaky Guan Yu’s 5yo Birthday.

Finally met my nearly 2yo cheeky nephew for the first time.

Babysat the cry-baby.

Went Bangkok and bought a Thai dress for my cute little niece.

Went to my Uncle’s place and catch up with my cousins.

Fetched the primaries to school.

Catch up with the Feikaz~

Helped out at home.

Had dinners with Family.

Met up with primary school mates.

Went to Duan’s house warming.

Went to my uncle’s company to surveillance the workers.

Brought Jamie from Singapore to Eden JB for Coffee with Vincent and Eddie.

Proudly show off my Gorillapod (Camera Stand).

Brought Jamie to Breakers Bar the next day, met Gui Jie (one of the funniest Feika), took a picture with Poly and then got wasted for the night.

Went horse riding with Jamie and end up with all the lazy horses that can’t run! But get to know a new friend Mous - the owner of the stable.

Ate in Carabao Thai restaurant with Poly, Jamie, Zhi En, Liang and swallow the fish head at the end of the meal.

Lastly, met up with Xue En, Ya Fen, Anthrea aka 青小梅, new pretty young girl Eve and the whole of Breakers Bar Insanity Group – the well known for lameness and loyal ’ness’ breakers group!

Guan Yu 5yo

I see them once a vacation every year, and I’m always glad that they still remember how to address me when I got home. They have an idea that I’m in Australia but they have no idea where is that place, whenever I pack a bag for outing when I was back in Malaysia – a few questions will come along “You are going back to Australia again?”, “You are not coming back anymore?”, “Why you keep coming back and going off?”

The eldest is my niece, people always say in majority – brain of a girl grows faster. She’s 8yo with lots of empathy – she’ll listen to me, ask questions, stay obedient, teach the right thing to the younger and never liked to play game. While my nephew, 5yo cares nothing more than games and mobile, he’ll ask heaps of questions with interest and work his way until he gets his hand on the mobile game. And the youngest nephew, 2yo who still can’t talk, have the interest to snatch whatever the 5yo plays – nothing else and I call him the king because he gets everything once he shout. All three of them grow under the same roof with totally different character!

It’s the second time that I celebrated my nephew birthday, the first time was in the hospital when he still have bloody stain on his face after birth – they said he looks like a monkey and he falls under the year of Monkey under the lunar calendar, coincidently born during the midnight of day 8 in the new year period (初八) so they said he’s one of the 天公仔 (Hokkien Translation “Ti Gong Kia”) which also mean the son of the Chinese God.

Whether it’s true or not, I can’t be bothered but I do think he have a monkey look and when time goes by, he even acted like one -he become very mischievous when he gets older.

Until today, he has become a smart kid with good memory for his own good. I mean once you teach him something he’s interested like games, he pick it up right away and play it really well – he got a good logical brain and obey his sister but still too naughty to listen to others.

For his 5yo birthday, we made a party for him in my aunt’s place so that my younger cousins can celebrate together, play in the pool, run around the place, dominate each other’s toys, and snatch for the cake and all the delicious food.

My cousins - needless to say that they are game freaks as well since they are boys – the Photostat-face brothers!

The food is so nice that I can’t stop myself as well, best when it still comes with soup! I don’t know what to name them since it’s all cooked by my aunt – even better than my mum’s cooking. Damn!

Home Cook Steam Abalone…



Home Cook Deep Fried Fish…



Home Cook Fried Calamari…



Home Cook Fried Chicken…



How come I don’t get such food for my 5yo birthday!?



And no such cake…



And no such nice photo!



Life is unfair and this uncle can’t agree with me more since he gets everything he wants!

And on the beginning of day 9 of the Chinese New Year, Hokkien put up incense for offerings to the god~
