Old vs young

Something that lighten up my day.

When I was collecting my assignment from the ChemEng General Office,
"So your surname is Mei?"
{Nope, Chew.}
"And you are from 2nd year or 3rd year?"
{4th year}
"You dont look like 4th year. You look young!"
{*giggle*}

LOL. I actually felt damn old nowadays. I was born in February. Even though age wise I'm the same with the rest, but whenever someone's bday notification pops up on FB, I'd feel like my bday was a long time ago. =.=

I guess it is because of my size that people tend to think that I'm young? N it is not because of my look. Haha~ But that line still made my day ^^




Stess level increasing..2 more days to my 1st paper..T_T

Me Want Go Home

My current PM on msn is "我要回家。马上立刻即时"
N I really wish so.

2 more weeks to be home.
Do you think it's very soon? But, I think otherwise.
It is a bad idea to keep counting the days, because it only minus 1 for each passing day. Whereas if you dont count, then you will be more excited to find out that the days to be home are drawing closer than u expect.
Don't know what theory is this.

Congrates to those Chem Eng students who have completed their finals for this semester.
So demotivating larh~
They have finished exams before I've even started my 1st paper.
In addition, Sia (my housemate) is flying home tomorrow
NOOooooooo~ I dont like the idea of finishing the exams late..especially when I really keen of going back Msia.
Why?!! Why set my exams to end so late?
What other kept telling me: "Think positively, you have more time to prepare, not so rush..etc etc"
But not like I'm making full use of the time to study. *guilty*
If I were to choose, I really dont mind to hv a rush timetable this round in order to go home earlier n for a longer period.

Sigh. Things wont just go according to how you wish for sometimes.
Perhaps, God wants to teach me to be patience.
Alright. I should stop complaining before getting scolded by those that don't get to go home.
Please be contented 知足常乐

Side track no. 1:
Btw, all the best for Sunway Mechatronics students 1st paper tomorrow.
Dodo, if you ever read this, haha..remember to study hard and grab HD in order to fulfill scandal =D

Side track no. 2:
Just completed Gossip Girl Season 2. LoL I know I'm slow. Have been watching Taiwan series lately. Downloading Season 3 now. Will try to catch up before Season 4 is released. :D

Jay Chou

Tonight, repeatedly playing Jay Chou's songs on my iTunes playlist, not all of his songs, but just the recent few albums.
No idea why I jz dragged his songs into the playlist.
A lot of things are not explain-able I guess.
I always have this problem with Jay Chou's songs, in which I would not like his songs when I just listen to it for the 1st few times. In fact, I felt uninterested or even annoyed by his songs.
However, after listening for Nth time, I will sort of love it.

Haha. This leads me thinking about how I treat others things in life. Somehow true and applicable.
Things that I <3 at 1st sight would not last, but I will treasure more on things that I started to like it after disliking for awhile.
Such a random fact about me. =D

*久未放晴的天空
 依舊留著妳的笑容
 哭過 卻無法掩埋歉疚

 風箏在陰天擱淺
 想念還在等待救援
 我拉著線 複習妳給的溫柔

 曝曬在一旁的寂寞
 笑我給不起承諾
 怎麼會怎麼會 妳竟原諒了我*

#我只能永遠讀著對白
 讀著我給妳的傷害
 我原諒不了我
 就請妳當作我已不在

 我睜開雙眼 看著空白
 忘記妳對我的期待
 讀完了依賴 我很快就離開#

Was very touched by this song tonight. Even though I dont feel much connected with the lyrics.

口是心非

"开玩笑"的背后,多少有些许事实;
"不知道"的背后,多少有些许想法;
"不管了"的背后,多少有些许在乎;
"没关系"的背后,多少有些许失落。


Quoted this from Cheryl's FB status.
Find it quite applicable..perhaps that's why ppl always say gals are 口是心非。

But, do you know that: sometimes it is best we don't tell direct answers, because situation doesnt allow us to?

World Cup 2010

FIFA World Cup 2010 has started..
Many people around the world especially footie fans are extremely excited about this 4years-once event.

Manage to watch the opening at Uni computer lab last night..haha..so cool..never know uni has such cool facility..
But then nothing fascinating about the opening..
Some football fans claimed that the opening is jz an indicator for the start for the world cup season, it is not a movie or film..LOL
Too bad~ I really don't enjoy football matches..
But I do find Namewee's new song interesting..
"放半粒 handicapped goal" - Youtube it if you havent watched it.
According to KM, "This time the video is shot with presentable ladies, no more 'a gua'"
Haha~Good observation!

Came across this real cool World Cup calendar

Now everything has been worldcup-revolutionized..almost all the advertisement would include world cup merchandise as promotion..

World cup fever vs exam period.
Luckily it doesnt concern me..on the bright side, the study environment in uni has turned better..all the bola kaki would be camping at somewhere with large screen i pressume.. :)
There are even friends that bought large plasma tv for World Cup..
How insane is that?!

Time to study =X

Just realise my blog posts hit 300 for the previous post. *Dancing happily*
But I doubt I've posted all 300..some are still in draft mode, which I cannot be bothered =X

Yesterday was a mixture of HaPpInEsS + GuIlTiNeSs..
Yesterday was the 1st day of the start of Monash Sem 1 2010 exam period.
But that doesnt concern me, cz my 1st paper has 1 more week to go.
N guess what? I'm still pretty relax..not stressing about the finals yet.
WORSE still, went out for the whole day until late night with friends, had fun like exams are over. *tsk tsk* So terrible.
Lord of Fries with Indian sauce *slurp slurp* Bought it before the shop closed :P

can you feel (see) the love on Dr.Goh's face? Haha..it is the natural shadow by the way.

My long awaited egg tartttt...*Satisfaction*

Actually, it is the Light In The Winter event brought us to the city. However I've no idea how the calculation thingy work..I did try to understand, but give up somehow =.= More of like jz having fun taking pictures with the imitated sun which you can see from afar in the city..Hee~
Chyi:"The sun is in my hand!" LOL

Freddoooooooo in winter ^^ Thanks lotz to our Mr. driver aka Mr. photographer. Despite that u r tired, but u still keep ur promise n go with us. Appreciate it!

After home, had an awesome 'yum char' session with some cute friends.
Just that I was not present at the scene.
N the internet line wasnt really smooth..but oh well, it really put a big smile on me for the night. Miss u people so much..can't wait to join in the talk for real~~

That's why I'm filled with guilt now..even though I still feel happy. @@
I'm so gonna be blaming myself if i didnt do well for the finals in which I should hv plenty time to prepare. *Grrrr*

Enough of fun and play time.
I MUST Start My Study tomorrow (as in today)

Bla bla bla~

Just had a short talk with mum.
Glad that my lost Hotlink sim card problem will be solved once I got home ^^
Have been frantically searching for it for couple of times..turning the room inside out..it just doesnt appear..
*sigh* Forget about it..don't want to spend time looking for it anymore.
At least it is a good news that my number can still be retained :)

Mummy being Mummy...She is my best listener and advisor..
I was motivated after talking to her..thank you mummy <3
I was all lazy ever since the last lecture was done for this semester last Tuesday.
Taking my own sweet time to finish up the final year report..Oh yea! Did I mention we manage to get a 1-week extension for it? Dr. Raman is not as scary as I've in mind after all..hehe

{How's your report going? Have you started to prepare for your finals?}
"Still doing lorh..exam a...still quite long to go...haven't started.."
{When is it? 18th right? Do you realise that u only hv 10 more days??}
"Opps~~"

Haha..I think I'm someone who couldn't be really independent..
I need someone to constantly remind me about my priority which a convincing way..
Used to think that mum is very nag-gy..felt irritated most of the time when I was back home..LOL..but without the reminder, I'll probably slack all the way =X
N I started to realise myself nagging others as well..haha..I've inherited her nag-gy gene XD

----------------
Chit chat with veggie dear yesterday..It's by far the few chats with her, whereby both of us are stress-free..
It's always either me or she fully loaded with academic stress..

The chat sort of making me to think about life after studies..
Really don't wanna imagine my life if i were to stay in Aus n work..
I'll have to sacrifice all the heart-warming chatting n fun outing with the people I love..Is it really worth it? I've higher pay, more money...n so what?
.........Alright, I'll have to stop rambling..need to get the report done hopefully by today if not someone is going to pour in the complains...T_T



Can't wait to go back to see all you people!!~


Can I just skip the report, exams etc n get home soon???

Good Sleep

Had a good 12-hour sleep last night =)
I simply love sleeping <3
It's a torture previously that I've to stay up late in the research lab n wake up early in the morning going back to the lab.
Thank God that torment has ended.
But cannot be too happy, because the scary design project has yet to come..
Shall just enjoy for the time being ^^

Perhaps it's the good sleep that has brought me positive feelings since I got up.
Somehow I woke up with a clear thought that I decided to go home after graduation.
Hmmm...I was quite firm at that moment, but not now.
But I still rmb how it felt when I sort of thought that I've made up my mind.
I felt satisfied n was relieved.

This thought might be due to me missing home too much.
So I shall not prompt to this decision for now.
But I know life would definitely be easier if i just go back.

How I wish I can foresee my future with both paths..then I dont have to struggle deciding..
Oh well~Life is not a bed of roses..
Hope I will be able to fully experience the relief-ness that I'd obtain after decision is made.

Have a great Sunday peeps!

梦想


好久没看星光大道了~
之前都只是追看到第5届的前半段,第6届更不必说,只是偶尔看到一些被转放到FB的片断而已。
从ch那里得知有关超级星光大道展开了新的一个比赛--《星光传奇赛》
基本上呢,这是一个比较大型的复活赛,号召之前失败了的参赛者(没有得到冠军头衔的)回来重返在舞台上的荣耀。

可想而知,事隔一段日子,要再度站上星光的舞台,是需要鼓起多么庞大的勇气。
比赛结束后,每个人都得回到自己的生活里。 尽管过着不同的生活,每个人的背后都有不一样的故事,但却拥有对歌唱一样的热忱。

看着看着,心里的感触真的,良多。
不知不觉, 距离第一届的星光班已经有3年了。
荧幕里的他们,不一样了。有些长高了,有些变漂亮了(牙套被拿掉),有些进步了,有些甚至像是专业的歌手了。
转大人的谢震廷--有方大同的感觉


曾经蛮喜欢的魏如昀。喜欢她,因为很有个性。这次回来,要加油哦!

看见他们的成长,再想想自己这3年来是怎么过的。。。
突然觉得,我好像很不堪,我好像在蹉跎岁月。

开始在想我的梦想呢?
开始在羡慕那些有梦想的人,与那种为梦想努力坚持的心情。
人就只有一生的时间。
我的人生好像还真的好无聊。
从什么时候开始,我就已经不再有梦?不再去想什么理想不理想的事情?
是不是 ’不可能‘ 抹杀了我的想法呢?
好像有一种感觉,我在活着别人希望我过的人生。
太过在意别人的眼光、感受,导致现在的我,看不到了我的兴趣、志向在哪。

人因梦想而伟大

你的梦想又是什么呢?

FYP Research Presentation

Research presentation on Monday was over..
Upset with it because it has been done badly..
Well, you may think that this yimei is underestimating herself again~
But this is really no joke. I was all trembling and nervous since I woke up.
Mind you, I had only like <1.5hr of sleep that night..only got contact with our lab demo, Ruby at 10pm and understood the results slightly more by 11pm..my presentation slides were only done by 3AM. Everything is like so last minute..*sigh*
I hv handled the part to work with stress, but not to present under inner-tension.

If you ever realize, I always got very nervous with presentation.not very but VERY VERY nervous!!
That's why I am not studying commerce..I cannot imagine if I've to do numerous presentations within a week..
Someone just told me that all you need to do is to present more then..although this seems like the last ever option that you would consider..
"Conquer the fear, if not fear will conquer you."
It's easy to say it, but not easy to turn that into action.

At this point, I cannot do anything to change the damage done for the presentation.
But probably to improve myself..to speak in public..this is really sth that I dislike most, but at the same time envious at those with high level of confident..
It wasn't that bad when i was doing it alone, but on the very moment words coming out from my mouth were not linked to my brain..I ended up reading the notes that I've prepared in a very fast pace..until everyone could feel my nervous aroma n knew that I cant wait to finish it asap..SO TERRIBLE!! *RAWR*
Thinking back the scene, really hate myself for being so nervous..FOR WHAT??!
Not like the examiner or the audience is gonna eat you up..=.=!! Why you have to be so nervous???!!
Since the presentation is sooooo important, should have been more steady, or act steady..Can someone teach me how to remove the panic button? 30% is a very huge amount, it can make a lot of difference in terms of whether a yes or no for my 1st honour title..*kiss goodbye* to my 1st honour T_T

Okay~ this would be the very last time for me to be all grumpy about the presentation. Hope I didnt cause anyone of u to feel sick of talking to me.
Thanks for all the encouraging prayers and wishes. But I'm sorry with the disappointing failed outcome.

And Jun, dont forget about the building 75 coffee is on you, definitely!!

Me Chyi Rene Jun

Housemates!(3 out of 4 are ChemEng)


A million thousand dollar worth photo..taken with our supervisor(a famous researcher in nanomaterials)

P/S: It's a relief after talking to Dr Huanting today. The conversation is sort of P&C due to some issue. Basically just got to know that our lab results are considered quite good. He wasn't really expecting much from few weeks of work. =D
