Again, it has been a long time since I've penned anything! Had always wanting to type something... but as usual kept putting it off. Am I really that busy, or am I just plain lazy? And can you believe it?? Its APRIL 2011 already!!! One third of 2011 has gone like the wind!!! :| What have I done so far? Or since my last entry... I cant even remember when was my last entry!! Better go back and read. *be back in a second!*Oh wow.. its actually less than a year since my entry.. haha! That entry was even before my fren's mum passed away and before Siti and Zura's visit last year!!! Goodness.. too much had happened ever since and I cant really update everything that had happened now, can I?
Let's just start with my work.. as in my casual job here in Dominos Malvern. I have been promoted to 'Shift runner'.. i.e. a manager position, when no managers are in store, I have the say! I beginning to dislike this job again and I wish I have not get this promotion. I would rather be a driver with no worries and especially no need to deal with angry customers who rang up the store, just to scold you so as to get FREE pizza, and then when they received the free pizza, they rang again to say 'Thank You' happily?!
Trust me.. there are all kinds of people out there, waiting for their turn to make a day or a few of your life either wonderful or miserable!
Will one in the food or retail line.. ever gets a day complains FREE? I really wonder... ... Enough of Dominos? These events, really tell me to say 'NO' for the job offer from my regional manager, after I finished my MSc this July. Yes.. HELL NO!
Uni wise... going ok, in a way. Just trying to finish it UP and cant wait any longer! Had lost the movitation is making this project going the way, I want it to go at the beginning. One lousy supervisor plus a lousy project = lost of passion in research! Then alot came to me and asked.. staying for PhD? Uhmm... Dr Xu, uh?! hahaha.. sounds weird! PhD.. if I want, wont be with my current supervisor, unles he gave me what I want to do and stop demoralising me! Or, I'll need to find a professor who's enthusiastic and passionate with what he or she does in research and is willingly to movitate and guide me along! But no time for this search, right now.. Anyways, PhD decision ? - looking for a professor who's passionate with what he or she does is actually DIFFICULT these days. Most people in this generation work towards the goal of FAME and MONEY, even in the education line!
hmm.. as I'm approaching another cross junction of this chapter of my life, I've actually booked my ticket back. I'll be flying out of Adelaide on the 7 August 2011! :) Its a one-way ticket. But I must emphasis one point.. althou' its one-way, it will not stop me from returning to Australia in future, if I'm mend to be here, ya know. Who knows? Like what I've told a few.. just let me follow the flow and make my decision as and when they come, and that will most likely be after my Tibet trip! LOL! Am SO SO SOooo looking forward, for this Tibet trekking trip, which is happening on the 10 Sept till 25 Sept 2011!! Air ticket checked, Tibet guide almost checked! Training.. started in Feb 2011. Started with my jogging, tennis, badminton, walking and cycling regime! :) And yes.. I've hopped on Wendy's bike every non-working nites or day and ride to uni those days.. although maybe only once or twice a week and about 12 km return, with SLOPES.. to concur, the FEELING is DAMN GREAT! :D
Hmmm.. right now just waiting to get my visas.. to China and Tibet's permit! Tibet tibet tibet... I'm COMING!!! :))
