Plans on Hold

"Congratulations on being successful in your application for the sponsorship for a Master’s Degree Programme.........."

I'm rejecting the offer to take my Masters. I guess, it's better for me to do it full-time. So right now, I'll just put it on hold, and focus on what I'm doing now. I guess I'm clear and won't make a wrong decision.

Jiale's Birthday

Another moment to display my artwork:

Happy 21st Birthday, Jiale!

Things to bring...

Flight details are out! Going to have a transit flight at Guangzhou to Xi'an. Gotta be there for 9 whole days. Omigosh. The last time I was on task there, I felt so @(#&%)!@&@#%). The 3rd day I was there, I already sort of gave up.

Things to pack into my suitcase, don't care if I'm going to bring a large one there. I just want my things!!!

1. NDSL or PSP ? Which should I bring?
2. camera

3. ipod

4. storybook

5. sun glasses

6. Shoes

7. Addidas jacket

8. soft toy (Quick, tell me that you want me to bring you!)

9. Clothes

10. Toiletries (must remember my contact lens solution and case!!!)

11. tissue paper

12. notebook and pen

13. Spectacles and case

14. Empty water bottle

15. Plastic bag

16. Extra hand luggage bag (just in case I went berserk there)

17. Medication (especially lomotil)

18. Daily bag

19. Socket converter

(list to be added on when things come to my mind)

The most hated things to bring are the different charges for every electronic device. Sigh. They are so bulky.

The results....

3 weeks after my Violin exam...and after flood and fire in Paddington causing the delay of the results... ABRSM finally sent an email to notify that I can check my results online at 10am today! YEAH!! I was awed!

China Immersion

Just as I had expected, I had to go for China Immersion. Once again, I have to go Beijing. Why can't it be some other parts like Shanghai? Besides Beijing, we will also be visiting Xi'an, where the famous "兵马俑" are. Sigh. So no more Hacken Lee concert, but in exchange of endless nagging, scolding and irritants.

Well, think of all the positive things!!! That is to take the aeroplane!!! (But China Airlines, not SIA!) A stay in the (so-called 5-star) hotel! Hopefully can sleep alone in the room. Feast on my favourite 水煮牛蛙, 水煮鱼, 苦瓜炒蛋, 孜然羊肉串, 北京烤鸭, 饺子 and 麻辣料理。And that is if my company are willing to share with me, cos' the portions in China comes only in big one-size for all!

Sigh sigh sigh. Tired.
