I’m dreaming of a White and Happy Christmas…

In my last week’s lesson in SKUS, this song bothered me everyday, since we need to perform it. Alice was bothered by Canon…we stayed for 3 hours everyday together and practice, now it’s all over. White Christmas is still a dream, perhaps Edna experienced it and perhaps Snowy could give me one too. I really want to burst out in tears when brother called me. And wanted to type MISSING U back.

This Christmas has a few wishes, firstly that Jackie be as happy as 4-ever. Secondly is the success of Penny’s company and that he leave me a job vacant too. While blessings for all and that’s all. Tell me your wishes if you like. Remember the need and Jesus. Sharing is good…

Last FRIDAY, I didn’t mention that I had met two new guys. One is Alex, he talked to me on the train. The other is Nick from Yarraville. It was quite funny, in our conversation, I wasn’t able to get all his words, I heard NAKE. Later he asked my name and I asked him afterwards, he said that he had told me awhile ago. NAKE – NICK~~~`

TODAY I found out that Alice and I have one more similarity – favouring the smell of coffee instead of drinking. I like to smell it… and Biscuit had given me some beans, but I was not able to bring them with me to Australia.

This morning I inserted several coins into the machine, around $4.8 and it suddenly said: ‘Wait for money refund.’ I waited and a $0.5 coin dropped. The machine then went for ‘Pls select ticket type’. Something like that…but then my $4.8 was gone! I asked help from the connex man in the information center. He made a ticket for me but then ask me to pay the whole sum. He said they (the center) have nothing to deal with the ticket vending machine outside. Asked me to press CANCEL and see if my money could be refundable. I was so upset, firstly the money… I earned Aus$28.1 on Sunday morning, I worked 3 hours under a super suffering condition. I know $4.8 isn’t much, but it was a quarter of my income. Secondly the company is so irresponsible, the man not even coming out and see if he can help, just ask me to press CANCEL… I argued and he just gave me a refund application form. Unlucky… nearly cried out during my way to the city.

I was with Alice in Melbourne Central, she accessed to the public internet to pass up her journal to Vicki, I was beside and read it. I only knew by then that she wasn’t satisfied with our performance in the assembly last Friday. In that performance I interchanged my right and left hands and made ‘Canon’ a mess. The White Christmas for me was perfect in short of Vicki sang with me in the introduction. Melody and Penny laughed during the performance. It strikes me when I hear ‘Penny’ the name. And here I have a classmate named Peng Li Li. Her English name is Penny and we could call her Lily too.

We went to the Pines anyway and had our lunch there. While we met Thomas and a Taiwanese from Monash. I hope Alice won’t be getting sick, it was so cold this afternoon. I wore short sleeves and was frozen. At 4pm, we dismissed and I had a shower, a nice one 冨 and also washed my clothes. Must deodorize my socks tomorrow.

However, the one seemed to be sick is me and not Alice. I had taken 2 medicine and hope they work. I am searching for Jelly Beans, the glucose ones… NICE! Just now after taking the tablets, I stayed for awhile in the sitting room with the 2 annoying kids. They really want to tell me everything. Angus told me and asked me who had given him those presents and the drawing book. While Angel gave me a magazine to read (for girls only) and she told me about her drawing.

Don't know how to react to Jackie's good news just now. I am thinking another thing in her case, I mean the consequences... However, my focus of course was put on my brother la, he was online wo~~ Tonight so cold, just now my watch told me that it was 3:50, I though it was somewhat Macau's 3:50am, if it is, I gonna die. I dated Alice at 8am in the CITY. I went to the train station in the morning and it was a success~ YEAH!

Anyway, somehow I am a bit reluctant to attent CCBC's meeting. Including the party. Vicki & Fiona don't like us to gather around with Chinese here and to eat Chinese food as well.

演出了．．．
畢業了．．．

This morning I settled school earlier. Again Alice and I stayed together for the very very final rehearsal around 3 hours. We went to the computer room to finish the Issues of Eng by 11. Fiona saw me and she asked if the poem that I wrote on the card was written by myself. It was just the lyric of a song, I begged her to quickly open the door and escaped her Q.

The first hour of lesson was relaxed, I need to find Brenda though, and Victoria kept finding me, in this case, I think Vicki didn’t know my decision. The afternoon was great, we went for Scavenger Hunt. At this point I asked Vicki whether I could re-enroll or not. Sigh, don’t want to bother with this matter anymore…

On the way to Federation Square, we need to go into the bank, the flower show, Town Hall, etc. Ken asked 2 questions for us. And I am not bad too, I went into the bank with Alice and to the flower shop. We asked how much the interest rate for a deposit of $10,000 is. Surprisingly, we got different answers from two staff. And Peter, the owner of a flower shop wouldn’t tell us how much is a single rose until we buy one! We promised him to ask our BF to buy us roses then… $5@

The remaining hunting was to the photo shop. The sales was curious on our questions and help us with the remaining questions, he told us where is the CommonWealth Bank. Alice and Rina felt that he is handsome, yet I only concentrate on my paper’s answer. Tomorrow is my last day!

We need to finish up the survey in the Federation Square. There were quite a number of visitors, therefore I choose to ask those security guards and sales. I was able to ask 6 people. The rest, Vicki said that we will finish them up during our Christmas vacation. She assumed that I will continue with it…

So hot and so tried when we returned. We rehearsal once again and went to the common room for a dress rehearsal too. At last we were able to produce something NICE.

沈默了兩個多星期，多麼的可怕啊．．．

今日借左部手提比阿Ken用．一來唔想用電話，二來冇quota至電給人家．

都係好累，身心都係．．．

Vicki曰：Emily, please don’t cry.
唔使理佢～～　我只是累到‘死’左係到．．．
Fiona曰：Are you happy with your decision?

Without any more doubt today, the extension is there. Yet I am fed up – if I worked far more than enough, the result is still an extension, what’s the point? I would better stay to be lazy and let the extension goes over my January. Not fair… did Brenda has her word of honor? I know the decision is upon Vicki, but she promised me, and Fiona knows that. I went to Fiona’s room this afternoon and told her that I haven’t made up my mind whether I would like to stay or not. She checked my record, and it says ‘extend – confirm dates’ … nth to say~~

I ordered a photo from Daniel for the excursion going to Williamstown. The class photo, though it was not so nice, but it’s memory. I have read the book list for MUFY, osp, need to buy a calculator and many books. At first Alice and I though of not choosing arts, cause it would be spending money over paint brushes, arts kit, etc. But then it came out that the Economics Book cost $70. And the Computer Science $36… This morning I went to the bank, and I didn’t know that they open at 9:30am, stupid!!! I went to HSBC, closed and then to ANZ, the same~~~ actually no opportunity to go there la, need to go to school. Tomorrow need to settle at 7am, dated Alice to prepare the graduation ceremony.

有些辛苦，有些熱，有些唔開心，有些累，有些睡意．．．
沒有沖勁，沒有您，沒有她，沒有他．．．

Just now I hurt my leg… I just lean on my bed and wanted comfort. I though of phoning my brother, somehow I get lost too, I know he’s those healing experts. Yet the chair felt down on my leg, went with agony! Like that when I first arrived, the bed bended over to my hand… extremely upset, lonely… what am I doing?

I was awaken at 20:00, what to do? Just 3 hours of sleep…continue to sleep, not until 2:30 that I woke up again. Still nth to do, since I had finished all the stuff for Vicki. I am beginning to worry for my marks in writing. Though I got what Brilliant or excellent, my last result is five, there is still five plus and six minus, can I jump for 2 grades? Will there be any miracle or mercy to eliminate my extension?
