The journey continues (part 5 - final section)...


I arrived in Brisbane once again this morning by SQ255 ... It has been a mixed feeling for me during the 22 days stay in Singapore. The delight would definitely be the time I spent with my KTV mates as the "KTV Ultimate 5"; having gathering with my childhood friends as well as to attend the wedding of one of them; and of course having to spend time with my family members... Things will be perfect if I didn't suffer from food poisoning and stomach upset. It happened 3 times which was so annoying especially if u are intending to taste the local authentic food...

As usual, I suffered from jet lag after arrival... I don't seem to be the kind of person who can sleep on the plane. To make things worse, a group of Korean teenagers were making so much noise and playing around in front of where I was sitting... Didn't really enjoy the meals provided by SQ though; still prefer Emirates on that. But due to the 30 kg luggage allowance, SQ became a better choice of flight this time...

Climate is an issue that I'm currently facing. It is so ironical when I needed to switch on the air-con while I was back in Singapore, and has to switch on the heater now when I'm back in my apartment. Surprisingly, both Singapore and Brisbane have been raining this whole week, except that it was warm after raining for the first and extremely cold after raining for the later. My priority right now is not to fall sick as my tutorials are starting next week...

Hopefully the final section of this journey's chapter will be fruitful and worthwhile...

To Justin & Midori, happy birthday to the both of u... Looking forward to see both of u in this week's KTV &/or mahjong gathering. Of course not forgetting to mention hui, dingjun and all those that I have not seen for quite a long time like zijin, janet and dione. Time really flies as it has already been two years since we graduated from TP...

Family Days


Guess what? I'm now blogging in Singapore...

It's definitely good to be back home, even though I'm still adjusting to the weather... Went to visit my family doctor yesterday due to stomach upset over the last two days, whereby the doctor also agreed that it could be due to climate change since I didn't have this problem when I was in Brisbane... Well, what can you expect when the temperature is 25-31 degrees here comparing to 12-21 degrees there *-) ...

Went for some shopping yesterday evening and bought two short sleeves t-shirts and a 3/4 pants from Giordano, and that costs me $59 altogether. Although it's Great Singapore Sale now, somehow it seems to me that everything is more expensive as before...

*****

Don't really know the exact reason but somewhat feel that the TV programmes over the last few days were kind of boring... I do miss gameshows like Wheel of Fortune as well as reality programmes like the Amazing Race... As for the drama series, most of them have already been shown halfway through or are about to complete, so can't actually find the significance to watch them...

*****

A group of my Singaporean friends whom I knew in Australia will be having a gathering tomorrow, so there will be lots of topics to talk about especially comparisons between Singapore and Australia. But I'm defnitely looking forward to the KTV and mahjong sessions with my "kah ki". Even though my singing now is not as good as before, the passion is still there for sure :)...

Time for some coffee now. Till the next time, ciao!
