It's different

It had been 4 months since I left Research Laboratory 3, Level 3 of Monash University. Throughout my Honours year in this lab, many events had taken place. I missed the people in this lab- Angela, Mei Zhen, Ice, Iris, Chien Wen- many of us have left and our seats have been replaced by new people whom I don't share as much time as I had with these 5 girls. I miss these times- mahjong, swimming, karaoke, dinners, lunches etc. There were events where I had been having with the new girls, they are nice people but I feel awkward for the atmosphere and conversation now is different. They are engaged with their little little conversations which I don't understand for I have left. Lab 3 has a new life which I am not part of anymore. Sad but this is life, everyone has to move forward!

Adoration

• I just simply adore old couples who still hold each others hands, just like when they were young and deeply in love. I find them really sweet and so loving. I hope I will find my other half and be able to hold his hands till we're old. I wish I could find someone whom I could fall in love with everyday (and vice-versa).
• A SMILE brightens anyones day, no matter from whom. I love to see the smiles of loved ones, babies and children. I love to hear their laughters. This simple gesture fills one heart to the brim with happiness and blessings. SMILE and the world SMILES with you :D
• I am not much of a talker, never the one to start a conversation. To some and especially to new friends, I could be a boring person. But I love talking. I am truly thankful for I was blessed with 2 girlfriends whom I enjoyed talking to without holding back my thoughts and feelings. Once I had a close guy friend whom I could chat with for hours, I lost him for quite sometime but I know that one day we will be able to chat again just like before. We are now busy building our own career and personal life, but whenever there's a chance to sit and chill, I treasure these moments no doubt.
• I am loving each day, each new day is full of adventures and treasures yet to be discovered.
  

Nostalgic

I love egg tarts and I have tried from several places- HK's John King (Pavilion); Canton-i; mini egg tarts from a coffee shop along jln imbi; and Tong Kee Brothers. No doubt egg tarts from each of these confectioneries are tasty and special in their way, but I still love the egg tarts from Tong Kee, for their egg tarts are really delicious and maybe because of nostalgic reasons. My late paternal grand dad whom we called 'Yeh Yeh', used to buy these lovely delicacy for us kids whenever he goes to town, even when he was in his 70's. Every time I get a bite of it memories of my beloved Yeh Yeh comes back. He went back to the Lord for a decade now, but I still feel him here, by us all the time. I used to make Yeh Yeh proud because I could complete a jigsaw puzzle all by myself when I was 3 or 4 and when I excelled in my studies, I hope I'm still making him proud today. Not only him, I hope I'm still making my paternal grand mum (MaMa) and maternal grand dad (GongGong) proud today and always. I miss them.


I hope my family are proud of me even though I could not be perfect.
