Japan fever

You can call it a coincident or a trend, several of my friends happen(ed) to go to Japan for holidays; I am one of them. Why being so obsessed with this Asian country? Its unique culture, aesthetic historical buildings, fashion trends, and most importantly, its food! I indulge in Japanese food wherever I go. Its national dishes – sushi and sashimi – are given an identity of healthy all around the world. The colour of kimonos becomes a live advertisement that people will associate it with whenever Japan is mentioned. Woow, I can’t wait for my turn to go.

My heart lightens a little bit when dad’s voice is filled with some energy these few days. Since he becomes ill, I feel tones of responsibilities suddenly fell onto my shoulder. Tears were shred, but life goes on; it is never fair. My life, as the fortune teller foretold, has been and will be going through waves of ebbs and flows. Well, if that is the case, so be it.

My new car - Little blue Hyundai Excel. Something that I need to pay off in the next 9 months.

Olympic opening ceremony

Opening ceremony

I watched the Olympic opening ceremony despite I was closed to being exhausted. It was a fantastic show. New technology and ancient China innovations were perfectly blended to showcase the world what Chinese have done and can do. When the national anthem was sung, I almost wanted to cry. My deep hidden patriotism suddenly awoke and I was feeling proud of being a Chinese as well as holding a Chinese passport.

Rock on China! The world is watching you in this game!

Solo revolving planet

I have been so busy latterly that I am a sort of disengaged from the revolving world. My lonely planet is solely revolving on its own, ignoring big events that are exploring in the universe. Hopefully, this simple planet would kick back to the real world very soon when the engines start zipping her around the vast land.

For Melbourne, I can not complain more – the miserable weather, the chaotic public transport, the rising food and living costs and endless traffics on the road. Sometimes, I imagine I could get old quickly so I can move up to Queensland for its sunshine and warmth.
