Mt-Cootha
We brought Ivana to Mt-Cootha last Thursday after dinner @ Chermside Shopping mall.
It's Ivana first time visiting in Australia, so we, being the host, have the responsibility to show her around. And Mt Cootha is definitely a must-visit place for beautiful scenic view. :))
But our cameras are really not as good as mum's. So ma, can you bring yours here next time and take some beautiful night view photos of Brissie? :D I will be right here waiting! Come come!

My baby's home.
Did I tell you, my baby is finally back? He arrived safely yesterday after a long hour flight, and still had to report back to the office once he touched down. *sayang*
So he went straight to bed after dinner, and slept until this morning, then off to work again. *very busy huh* Money is really hard to earn! *jiayou baby*
I am happy to hear that everything went pretty well and he's able to accomplish all the tough tasks he was given. *well done baby* clap clap clap clap* :)))

I hope it did not cause you guys any big troubles. *finger crossed*
Ok, it's time to update my daily life now. *winks*

Flirtation
Flirting is a way to meet potential mates and see if they are compatible or qualified. However, to flirt while you are in a serious relationship is so immoral, but people still do so. Flirting is beautiful only when you have all the rights while you are single and it is a way to open the door to a romantic relationship with someone who you don't know.
I guess flirting is acceptable only if you are in the very early stage of the relationship. While you are in an uncertain situation, and you tend to explore more to find the most compatible mate for the relationship.
I've come across flirt that annoys me, or flirt that I hate to know about.
It's horrid. Even if it's only a joke.He/she might has the idea of flirting, but occassionaly he/she will express it in a jokingly way. If the other person falls into it and starts flirting, the flirtation will continues. It's an interpersonal thing.
People flirt for a few reasons. For example, people who flirt will try to show that they are attractive to the opposite sex, or they are just hoping to have some fun.
I was very curious and I went google it and heaps of articles came up. There are even articles that teach you how to flirt, or suggestion to give your partner a flirting pass. (really!!?!)
But how could you define innocent flirtation or guilty? Is innocent flirting any good for the relationship? ( I am seriously doubting this)
Articles stated that jealousy aroused from innocent flirting will drive the relationship to a more healthier or well-balanced stage. I think this article is trying to explain that couples should have a flirting agreement or mutual agreement what is acceptable or what is not in the relationship.
(I am doubting this again.)
If there's one flirtation going around in a relationship, let it be innocent or guilt, who can give promise that it is only a pure flirtation which will not lead to any break ups or divorces?
So do you flirt?

An Angel.
Yesterday, I rushed to the Social Sciences and Humanities Library to have my assignment papers printed out. I had them printed in colour. But I've only got $5AUD in my wallet. I think God just adores me. I told the librarian and I was looking for EFTPOS, there is no EFTPOS available (EFTPOS refers to Electronic Funds Transfer Point of Sale, which allows a retailer to directly debit money from customer's bank account by using a debit card, generally, it's something like an ATM card) The librarian, an old gentleman, then only charged me for 4 pages with colors and the rest are all black and white.So I paid him only $4.10 AUD! What an Angel!! It would have cost me more than $12AUD or so.
What a lucky day!
He's such a nice person! :DD

Goodnight.
It started off like this.
Then gradually, very slowly I begin to read something like this.
Then after 10 minutes, the line "It is easy to be GREEN" starts to blur out. I rub my eyes continously........
Me, looking very grumpy.
I think it is time for bed.
Did I tell you it is only 10.30pm!!?

Sustainability . I can't sustain anymore.
The pressure made me feel like my head was exploding. I have to constantly feed myself with variety of junk foods which make me feel sick even more. Why am I such a glutton!!?!
One of the reason I hate writing this assignment is because of the lack of interest and ability to write a competent assignment due to this stupid sustainability issue. Yes you heard me. It's about the environmental friendly issue where I need to analyze how the company I have selected to deal with all kinds of external pressures and how their capabilities in going 'Green' are going to success or benefits them or not....
............
Boring stuff!
My room is in such a mess but I think I am very good at moving my eyes away from the messiness. I can't be bothered.
Why am I such a mess?!?! Oh whatever. It will all be just fine after tonight.
.............
Okay, better treasure my 30 minutes break!
Hard work does pay.
:D

Turning 25.
In just one month's time, I am turning 25! It feel like I was still 21, celebrating my birthday in Perth with my uni buddies. (Oh how I missed you guys)
How time flies. really.
I still feel very young deep inside me, but certainly I don't look young anymore. *Boo hoo*

Random post.
I guess presentation went quite alright last night. I wasn't as nervous as I thought I would be. That is something great about it. I was feeling pretty alright when I was presentating and even faced the audiences confidently while explaining the terms to them. Yeah! I am improving bit by bit. :D
Challenging yourself and improving is the whole process of learning I suppose. I don't like to be compared with other people, and I normally don't compare myself with others. I guess, its you yourself the one that you are comparing with all the time. People say if you compare yourself with others, you will keep moving and improving and that will drives you to a better or higher level. But I guess, by comparing with others make me feel so shallow, I rather compare with my own experiences and if I able to achieve those difficulties next time. I am improving!
I can't deny that definitely I feel great if I am doing something well when I compare with others. But I guess that's not the right way of developing or progressing. I believe if you use these as one of the main sources of your motivation, and keep pushing yourself by comparing yourself with yourself.
Anyway, I guess what I am trying to say is people will feel content with own achievements but not by comparing with others by criticizing them.
Am I making any sense here?
Okay. I woke up at 7.30am today. Yes! Feeling great and cold. Bloody cold man! Winter is really approaching.
Left home at 8.40am to pick Kelly and her home sister, Nessy. We were on our way to the airport to pick Ivana up. I was feeling excited as she will be my new housemate for 2 months in one week's time. She's such a lovely and adorable girl. Feel so much like my sister. She's same age as Ying, and just as friendly, and as easy going as Ying. I am looking forward for her to move in with me.
Before I started doing anything for assignments, I digged out all the photos we took recently and here are some of them.
Very randomly choosen.
Enjoy!
p/s: baby huiyi, do you like my brown contact lense? *muaks*

The Early bird.
I've been sleeping real early and wake up early. Sleep from 10pm and wake up at 7am. I wanna keep this up! Waking up early makes me feel so energetic. Love the fresh air when I open the blinds and curtains to let morning air in.
I am going to present on a topic based on one of the motivation theory : Equity Theory at 4pm later!
Good luck to me!
:D

I need some time alone.
...........................................................................................................................................
Why do I have so much tears.
1. Show me photos of my loved one. I will shed tears while looking at their photos, and missing them miserably if they are not here with me.
2. I cry when I play piano for no reason. Sad songs only!
3. Tell me stories of abortion. I cry because I feel so sad for the unborn baby. I have a sympathy feeling for unborn babies, that makes me feel so unfair and upset because of how cruel the act is.
4. I cry for sad, touching movies/ books. (very normal lah)
5. Missing bf / family too much.
6. Cry over for stupid/silly arguments.
7. I cry when I have bad dreams.
8. I cry when I found spiders in my closet.
9. I cry when I freaked out.
10. I cry when I found out lies or unfaithfulness, regardless of relationship or friendship.

Lazy or busy?
Hey people! I have not been lazy. In fact, I was rather busy!
So just a quick life update about why I have been so slack at updating my blog here.
This month has been a dramatic month for me. It was somewhat emotional and thrilling. I think it's a little bit of both.
Yes. My baby is off again. OH NOT AGAIN!
Ok back to counting down the days. 1 week and 6 days more to go.....
Never mind the alarm clock that woke me up.
Never mind the tiredness that overcame me.
Never mind everything, but it's you that I mind.
Oh gosh! Chinese are so cunning. I am sorry I have to put it this way, in fact, I am a through and through Chinese too!
I miss you baby.
Regardless of how tired I was, I quickly drove home and took an hour of nap, despite the fact that I had only 4 hours sleep, I still had to make it for afternoon class where I had a task to do for group assignment.
Concluding the focus group, I breathed a sigh of relief as it went pretty well, as I did not spend too much time on practicing it beforehand. I hoped I didn't ruin it!
Right away, I have another presentation waiting for me. *jiayou jiayou jiayou!*
"Managing organisational behaviour" is pretty interesting and gives you the insights of how to deal or manage employees with different personalities, characteristics and behaviours in a workplace. There are so many ways of how to influence employees to change their behaviours in order to motivate themselves.
There are different referents that one employee can choose to compare him/herself with. Different moderating variables that have impact of how employee choose their comparative person.
It seems so much complicated than I previously thought it was.
Psychology is interesting, but it's far too complex.
I think this gives me the answer of why human are so complicated and complex with it comes to issues of personalities and characteristics, relationships with others and et cetera.
I've recently came across so many different incidents where I found it useless and worthless to involve myself into those cases. I think I was patient enough. So I rather sit back and observe what is going on now. Sometimes I tell myself, please don't be so mean. But sometimes the meaner you are, the better it is to solve the problems or give a lesson.
I am not perfect, but I guess by experiencing all these will make me stronger and wiser.
:)
