28 June 2018: Melbourne Winter

Image
Hello everyone, it's been a while now!  My previous posts that dated back on 19 March 2018 were not actually created on that date. They were written maybe back in 2010-2011 but I did not publish them due to my circumstances that disallowed me to write anything about life. I really want to update everyone how I am going! As you can see from my writing, I sound more mature oh yes, I surprised myself. As a mother in her early 30s, with a toddler (under 5), full time working mom, geez life is very hectic but really cannot slow down even if I wanted to and would be a bliss if I could! But no, I totally enjoy everything right now. As you can see from my photo with hubby (LOVE IS IN THE AIR--> all the time for us). LOL so cheeessyy!  Wefie with Yarra River backdrop Ever since I moved to Melbourne, I thought things will slow down. But I guess not ever since you have a kid. Having a lil boy who follows you everywhere from waking up to wanting to know where...

My Life TODAY!

Image
Haha, I'm a big fan of food man. You can see how chubby I am! By the way, that picture was taken like 1 month ago. At that time, I lost 2 kilos I think. Not much but oh-well, I'm definitely going to work harder. Anyway, ever since I came back from Jakarta, I left so many things behind and need my Mom to bring them all over. One of them is my yellow-leather Diary (Kikki-K!!! I love this brand.. wohooo.) So, I have to write something somewhere. My fingers itch if they are not used to write something. So, since I have a blog, I might just use it, FREE...!! LOL So, what do I need to do??? (Today!!) Take Shower -> Eat -> Take all my clothes from the hangers -> Iron some -> Gym. Need to e-mail my Ji-chan. Reply all my facebook messages. Vacuum house. Print my Chiba University forms. E-mail my university about change of subjects. ARGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Hm, I think that's it? By the way, what is the update about my student exch...

Week 2 End: 1 month Weight Loss

Image
Hey peepz. Just wanna update you about my weight loss. Around the same time last year I weigh 93 kgs . Then I weighed myself around 1 month ago, I weigh 85 kg. I think since then, I've lost more weight but I haven't weighed myself these days. However, I only have 1 month left for my gym membership before I am off to Japan. Despite that, I am going back to Taekwondo and train with this old master guy who was a World Champion 6 times in korea and a New South Wales taekwondo team coach. LOL I heard he is good but I'm a bit nervous if I can't catch up with his training program. But, since it is my last 1.5 months in Sydney, I think I will just try to keep up!! Oh, these 2 days I have been giving away my old clothes to charity near my university. It's not that I'm bragging about it but it's because I have un-used clothes. And I encourage YALL out there to do so!! It leaves you so much space to buy more clothes. HAHHAHAHAHAHAH...

Life...

Life is never as sweet as it sounds. A short 4 letter word. Compact, simple but in reality complicated. This oh-so-delicious photo of fried wedges and korokke may look really really tasty, but you might never know how hard it is to grow them, the farmers have to wait for them for several weeks, the hard work to harvest, to cook, to mix all the ingredients, peel them, shaped them, then finally frying them and decorate them so it looks eatable and tingly in your mouth.... Therefore, in order to become fruitful in life, we have to strive and create necessary things to support our life to become... FRUITFUL. I as a person, think so much about things that maybe other people do not usually worry about. What can I do? I am this type of person. Maybe that's why Daddy and I can really relate to each other. We are both feelers and feed on people's emotions to stay alive. When our partners are not in tune with us, we simply feel unloved-while in reality, maybe they love us ...

NEW YEAR and Others *Boink Boink Boink*

HAPPY NEW YEAR! HAPPY NEW YEAR! NEW YEAR, GoodBye Tiger YEAR---- HELLO RABBIT YEAR!!!!!!!! Oh wow, it is 2011 ............................ again..... WOW................................. LOL I know, I am just very speechless, almost 1 year 3 months ago I was just getting ready to prepare myself departing to Japan Almost 1 year ago, I was heartbroken by my best friend. LOL Almost 1 year ago, I was travelling around Hokkaido with my sister LOL. And now, all the past should just go in the past but reminiscing is as always fun to do. You learned alot and may laugh by yourself for the things that you have done or regret of the things that you have not done. But 2010 is 2010. NOW .... ladies and gentlemen... is 2011 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Celebrating New Year in Japan, is not the same as how I used to celebrate New Year in Sydney or in Jakarta. Would you like to know a little glimpse of what Japanese people do during New Year? ...

Day 4: Friday

Image
On this public holiday, I felt much better because I feel I am so blessed with a pretty morning. It was snowing or the term that I call "shaved ice" fell down from the sky. Wearing my short pants and my "I love Sydney" T-shirt, I scrammed out of my bed, opened the window, ran downstairs and opened the door embracing the white dandruff... hahahahaha Anyway, Around a week ago I was planning to do something on this day, this PUBLIC HOLIDAY with him, but things turned out this way. If we were here today I would have asked him to come out to Odaiba hahahahaha But, as I know now, it will never come true... All I can do now is just to patiently and wish you well and take care no matter where you are. Waiting is painful and I thought you know how it felt, but you're doing it to me.... hahaha But it is okay. I am an adult woman. I can manage. I know forgiveness is hard, but I want to do it because I don't like keeping grudges. It only makes life fee...

End of September already?

Image
Hmm... HMM.. HM...M.M.M.M Who would HAVE thought, that it is nearing the end of September and it has been almost 2 months since I have started job hunting and the result is nil. What ever it is, I am still here in Australia, kind of wishing to go back to see my friends in Japan. But not to worry, Japan can come here LOL One of my friends is coming from Ryougoku and starting his working holiday in Australia soon! He is one of my dearest friends whom I often admire because of his looks. ha ha ha h aha ha h a We call him 'midnight sugar', don't ask me why, but he has this charming look and made u not wanting to wander your eyes' off anywhere else. He's like a kitty I must say. Calm, submissive, loves to smile and laugh, not too crazy like most Japanese men I do know. His skin is so white and he has 2 dimples, like, how rare is it to see a guy with 2 dimples nowadays? ha ha ha Anyway, I am so excited to see him in the near future and hopefully he can imp...

2015: a 3 year off from my Blog

Image
HELLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.... I forgot what I posted last time since I don't want to look back. BUT, I graduated. From USYD (Sydney Australia), AND CHIBA UNIVERSITY (Japan).  *CLAP CLAP CLAP*  So, I  want to f ast forward everything . I have moved back from Japan to Sydney, looked for a job and didn't make it in Sydney. Somehow, I got an interview in Jakarta then worked in a Japanese company, received numerous promotions and I quit my job after 3 years just when my GM wanted me to take over and entrust me with his whole division. He wanted me to write all 3 departments' Standard Operating Procedures then become a trainer for everyone in the company while at the same time watching and supervising system documentation since our division is the first in the whole Japanese Group *Globally* to integrate such system. I spent like 3 months working alone to write down a system manual handbook and shipped off to China as a sample for their system. I am b...

After 1 week?

akiramenaide.... あきらめないで! あきらめない。で。 If you read my previous post, I wrote about my cross-stitch project. This is where I am up to, I finished the hat. I had to re-do some again and again because the DMC thread tangled together and I had to snip off the ends for un-even-ness. Is this even a word? LOL Anyway, I did many things last weekend. I participated in an Amazing Race game and guess what, my group is the winner. LOL YAY!! THE VICTORY JUMP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (I'm 2nd from the right). We had 2 Pit stops. One started off in Central Station (finished with 5 challenges) and in the University of Sydney (5 challenges). WE WON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And if you know Teh Botol Sosro or simply put, a tea bottle. yes, we won that. LOL quite an unattractive idea for a prize give-away but I got the rewards that I want even more, FRIENDS!! 友達ができたよ! So many exciting things like how Nadeshiko Japan won the FIFA Women's World Cup 2011, they should be VERY proud and becom...

Projects!!!

PROJECTS... ProJects.. projects.. Fellow random readers, as you can see from the right hand side of my blog, I have several projects, well, goals that I pursue. Just to keep me motivated, entertained each month. For number 1, I just became a member of Virgin Active Australia located @ Midcity Mall level 2 on Pitt Street! I love that gym, enormously big, lotsa space to move and of course it has good views of..... "men" to cruise my eyes. hahahaahaahha just joking. They are all muki-muji just the way I like how Exile moves in their MV. hahaha Only 2 days in and I gained 100 grams. haha My body is all sore, btw, I gain 100 grams must be because Im building muscles too!. Fat is lighter than muscles hahahahahaha *ini mah alasan*. So, I hope to see at least 4 kilos weight loss in a month starting from this monday. For #2, I am making a Chinese Cupidboy Cross-stitch. This is the progress I've been making since Sunday. That's the hat!! I love cross-stitching, but you gotta h...

SYDNEY... JAKARTA... ................................................ WORLD ................................... これはシドニーハーバー橋の下を取った写真です。 スゲーだよね!私と姉はthornleighに行く途中で、橋の後ろは美しい空を見るとすぐ「写真を取らなきゃ」と思った。 ごめんなさい、日本語で、これから英語で書いています。ニコニコ  Okay, so I am back in Sydney since the 29th of May!! I have just been back from my 10 days trip in Jakarta. I visited my family, met my old elementary school friends and they're either in a relationship, engaged or getting married this year. LOL So in this post, I would like to say that I am very happy in Sydney except for the weather. In this 1.5 years that I've been away from Sydney, I only experienced summer once. I miss SUMMER and SPRING. The season is Winter and I have winter-allergy! I always get sick during early winter and have been sick for almost a week. This is a very excruciating pain, plus, I have just changed my internet provider! So without a week of Internet, and endless fever + flu + cough and no one to take care of me, I could tell you i...
