Moments that connect...

coming soon nath...been out whole day and by the time get back at night, so tired dy...and sometimes limited access to internet ler...

Last destination...
i'm now at my last stop before i return to Brissie...and this is another highlight of this trip...Adelaide.
The place i lived in for 2 years in my early 20s...and after 5 years i'm back for a visit..its still as quiet and things look a little bit older...and seems to have more ppl this time..perhaps its the 'graduation' season..friends and family come for the graduation of their loved ones.
Today i had a walk from my old house to the uni and i bumped into 2 people that i used to know and now no longer keep in touch. couldn't remember their names..only their faces and i knew i know them. Pang Sze and Lewis Liao...i am determined to remember their names.
Then i went to Paradise Community church for thei Christmas special events. They had Marina Prior to sing and my goodnes...her singing is very very good...and then we also sang some carols and the whole 'performance' made me miss my home church very much. i wish i could be home for Christmas.serious. i never tot i would miss Christmas in church but i do =(

Nomadic life
For 2 weeks i've been living out of a suitcase and taken many planes to different cities...at first it was enjoyable..but now i feel kinda sick of flying cos i get mild nausea..on my way to Adelaide, as the plane was approaching the landing strip, i saw wat looked like small hills with no trees and no lights and suddenly a big spread of streetlights and houselights...its like seeing day and nite, black and white..its an amazing view from up there and i realized that Adelaide is not as small as i tot it is...

Reflections...
You know how we sometimes just connect so well with someone we just met and we would start talking like old buddies and make jokes and 'kutuk' the fella mercilessly and then bestowed them with a nick name?..
well...today i bestowed 2 persons with that...one is Andrew's elder sister Ruey Shu and another is a friend Raymond. cos in Aussie, the culture there is like...they like to shortened ppl's name so Ruey(pronounced as Rae) is called Rae and Raymond is also Ray...so today after church service, i was like in a 'mabuk' state decided to call Rae as Do Re Mi and i told this to Jenn Yong(a guy) and he..dunno if he's the lame joker said we can call Raymond, Doraemon...
i was like YOU"RE RIGHT!!! lets call them doremi and doraemon so that we could differentiate them and being so excited, i told Rae and Ray the news and Rae tot i had a fever cos i was like so hyper and laughing and laughing and laughing...
which reminds me that its been a while since i have so much fun and being so lame..
DoReMi and DoRaeMon...gosh...@_@
and i guess moments like this...when u look at it from hindsight..will be something that will be remembered forever and when we have kids and when we meet up, we're gonna say lame things like this and our kids will prolly roll their eyes and say their parents are weird...hahaha...interesting isin't it..^_^
its a happy day..thank You Jesus...
