Friendship Management

I always though I can manage stress pretty well especially I like to work under stressful and competitive environment. Besides, I am not a sensitive person, therefore, I don't really aware my personal feeling and even people around me.

This week is quite tiring for me since it is a week before National Conference and change over for my current team. I really appreciate the relation we have built up a very special relationship. After high school, I have been moving a lot of place and meeting a lot of people. It ends up I don't really have much "best friend" or "close friend". Most of the time, the relationship won't last for more than a year. The only friendships that I really appreciate are the group of buddies from Chinese Orchestra. No matter where am I, no matter how long it has been away, every time I met them, it just make me feel so warm.

After a year working together with a group of five people, we have achieved a lot in these twelve months. Today I came to the end of our term. I have the expectation they are the only few people who know me and I can be comfortable with in NZ. Today, I am very tired since I could get much sleep for a week. My temperature become very bad and very impatient. I think I create stress to the people around me without realizing it. I suddenly realise that no matter how close the people around you think they are, you still need to be very careful.

Finding a person you can 100% comfortable and be honest is not that easy. Even you think it is, sometime you just can't go too far...

(I just watched the Lang Tengah video. It brought up a lot of memories when you hang out with a group of people you don't have to worry about how you act, what you should say, you can be totally comfortable and happy with. You just need to be yourself. I know I missed out a lot. I hope I can go on a trip with you guys once again! No matter how many years later, I believe it will be good and crazy!)

June Update

It has been a long time I didn’t update my blog. These two months are another interesting period in my life. Here are some updates about my life for last two months:

Moving houses and being poor I have been moving nearly every single month. Since April, I have moved three different friends’ place. Today, I am going to do my second last moved to David’s place for our pre-meeting of July conference. To be honest, it is very exhausted.

Besides, although I am earning a reasonable amount of money, I need to save up for Brazil trip in August. It is an abuse for me. However, it is my choice.

Dad’s surgery It was a hard time for me. Especially, mum didn’t tell me until I found it from Jia Qian. It was not a good feeling. Until today I still feel guilty about this. I know I could not do anything now, except be the best of what I have chosen. Dad and Mum, thanks for all the freedom you both have given it to me. I won’t disappoint you. And hopefully after this surgery, your health is getting better.

Sister’s education Finally, my sister has finished her first year study and she is going to UK in September. I don’t know why I am so excited about this even more than the time I came to NZ. I hope after two years I am able to pay my parent’s UK trip to her graduation.

An ending and a beginning One more week, I need to say goodbye to my current team. It is an amazing team experience. I could not expect any better. I am so glad I didn’t quit at that difficult time. I didn’t experience the no-one-can-be-replaced relationship for a very long time. Thanks guys! On the other hand, I am going to experience another team experience, a seven people team. I am looking forward to it, I believe it will be another amazing year.

Another cycle My life in these two three years is like a cycle. From making decision – changing decision – stress – new life – very excited. I have gone through half of the cycle in last 6 months, now I am going to experience the happy side of the cycle. Yesterday, I was so excited because I suddenly have the idea about my goal for the next twelve months.

I am looking forward to move down to Wellington in 7th of July. A new life, city, house, job and a group of new people ….. and a new goal of the year... start another fabulous year

ps: thanks for everyone who went through all the tought time me. Although I am not good at showing my appreciation, I hope you will know!
pss: w.mei, I will email you once I have my home address. I am wonder what am I going to receive :)

Here is some of my favourite song and adv for Olympic!
Yeah Beijing!! Jia You!

We are ready! (this promotion song was a year ago though)

Achievement and Successor

We won the FITZ!

I love conference, I love AIESEC Conference and I love Autumn Conference.

During the conference, I enlarge my NZ network; working together, planning, thinking about strategy and have fun. It motivated me a lot every time after conference. It remind me why I want to stay in AIESEC after few years, after graduated. There must be a reason - there is something I passion about!

...BEST TEAM EVER...

Five of us have created the best term for ourselves "Term 07-08" We work hard, play hard as a result we achieved the most. It is really rewarding memory in my life. I am glad that I decide to stay and I decide not to resign.

Power of attraction

Live life well

There are a lot of dramas in March.

I went through a lot and now truly believe in

Power of Attraction!

The entire month I was busy looking for a job and being stressful. Last week I though I finally got a cafe job. However, there was some miscommunication and apparently I could not get the barista job. I was very desperate. However, I keep telling myself I will get my dream temp job soon.

The first day of AIESEC conference, I got a call from recruitment agency. The job, which they offer me but on hold, now re-open again. I got the interview, and it straight after the interview. I am the research assistance of student administration department. The job is far more interesting and way better paid.

BELIEVE IN YOURSELF AND YOUR POWER OF ATTRACTION!

Now I don't have to worry about my financial status. I know this year will be another crazy year for me! I remember the similar situation happened last year this time! I believe everything will be so awesome in the next twelve months.

I didn't feel happy for a long time. Finally I can breath some fresh air! But I really appreciate everything happened recently! I know myself better.

I know I am on the right track to create my fabulous life

Think positively

Before this post, I have posted a very stressful and negative FEELING post. I was doing the research for my presentation just now. And I saw the secret again. I watched this movie beginning of this year when Jia Ehian introduce it to me. I was very inspiring at that time and start to follow the secret.

Remember normally it is very hard to get a car park in shopping mall in Malaysia, after I implement the rule, I always get car park when I just drive in :)

However, after I return to NZ, because all the negative thing has drag me out of the way! I am glad that I watched it again. I really should think positive now then only I can have a better life.

I truly believe that,

"What I feel make my life, what I thought make my future."

I feel good now

finally got the job

After two weeks job hunting, I finally get a job. The last two-three weeks were very stressful because of the financial and life. Meanwhile, I got a lot of rejection. It made me very depressed, especially yesterday.

"Secret" has inspired a lot when it first came to my mind. Every morning, I told myself "I will get a good job!" It was not going well for the last two weeks. This morning, I told myself the same thing again and in a very positive minded.

After come back to office, I took out the list of "Barista Wanted" I made yesterday and start calling. Somehow, I miss the first one, and start from the second one. A lady picked up the phone and we have two sentences conversation, she gave me an interview. I was so happy but quite worry since I didn't make coffee for two years.

I went there half an hour earlier. It is a Italian Bakery, the front desk is not very big, and a factory at the back. The atmosphere is quite warm and happy. Then, I went in and met my potential future boss. I was quite nervous. But she just said "tell me about yourself?" I really don't know what to talk about, so just talk about my experience in Robert Harris.

After a 10 minute conversation, she offer me a job!! A full time job!! 40 hours per week. I was not expect can be so easy. And she is very very nice :)

OMG.. finally!!! Somehow, I quite passion about being a barista ... I think I will love my work! Yay! *released*

Monthly Update - March

One more month has passed, now it comes to April. March was a very long month for me, from making decision, thinking deeply, changing decision, solve all the problem, etc. I am really exhausted.

29th March
I flight back to NZ for my graduation. I spent sometime talking to the people around here. It starts to change my mind and thinking 'am I ready to settle down in Malaysia?'

10th March
My family flight over to NZ to attend my graduation. We went to few places in NZ:
White Island, Whatakane (the only marine volcano in NZ)



It was the first time I got sea sick because of one hour bumping boat.

13th March
It was my graduation! I'm so glad that my dad could come to my graduation

14th March - 21st March
We went to South Island for quite a few places. It was not very well organised. I felt very sorry for my family. I wish we have a chance very soon to travel together again!








During this time, I have decided to stay in NZ. However, I am very not sure did I do the right thing. Until today, I get my NZ working visa and permit. It means that I am going to stay in NZ for another 15 months. Now, I am looking for part-time job so I can finance myself. After three months, I will move down to Wellington and start another different life. I am really looking forward to have another excited life and moving forward to other place after a year.

p/s: Mum, I am really sorry I could not go back atm. I know it must be stressful for you. I promise I will make my life more meaningful and you will be proud of me..

The Lonely Planet story

Synopsis Tony and Maureen Wheeler established Lonely Planet Publications in the basement of a terrace house in Sydney in 1973, to self-publish a modest travel guide, Across Asia on the Cheap. Going boldly where no other travel publisher had ventured, their aim was to cater for a new generation of independent, budget-conscious travellers long before the advent of mass tourism. From these humble beginnings the company has grown into an international publisher with more than 400 employees, 250 writers, offices on three continents, more than 600 titles in print and annual sales of over six million books. A unique mix of autobiography, corporate history and travel book, The Lonely Planet Story traces the Wheelers' personal story as well as the development of their extraordinary successful business. It offers fascinating insights into some of the beautiful and bizarre places they have visited - with a spirit of adventure that has made them, according to New York Daily News, 'the specialists in guiding weird folks to weird places'.

I bought this book in KLIA when I flighted to NZ last month: the lonely planet story.

It has inspired me to stay in NZ and keep traveling after a year instead of staying for Malaysia. It reminds me to keep traveling, having a fun life and doing what you like. May be I should not put earning money as my priority in my life. It is not what I really looking forward. I wish my life can keep moving around the world and I can find someone who can do this with me.

Graduation and South Island Trip

13th March 2008 was a big day for me, after 3 years study I finally finish my bachelor degree and attended the graduation ceremony. The bonus was my mum, dad and sis could attend my graduation. It was a bit rush and a bit tired, but I GRADUATED!


Now I understand why people say that it is so good to be a student. Before, I felt stressed on my study and grade. But now the stress from life is like 100 times more than that. Be a student, you just need to study hard then you will get the result. However, now I am not sure what I will get out of my decision. I am not sure am I do the right thing? Will I regret in the future? I really not sure.

I have do a lot of thinking. I keep changing my mind. No matter how I think I still could not make decision. The decision I made at the end just because I have to make. After a big circle, I go back to the same point, I was not move forward and I wasted a lot of time and money during the turning. I can't afford to make any changes again, either emotion or financial. I am exhausted. I even can't feel if I happy with my decision now.

So what at the end?
I decided to stay in NZ if I can get the visa by next week. I will work very very hard to earn back all my lost in the last few months.
After two months, I will move down to Wellington for MC (National position in AIESEC).
After a year, I will go for another internship. Somewhere around the world.
Then? I have no idea now.

Am I do the right thing?

I am going to Bungy again........

I just booked the world highest Bungy - Nevis Bungy!!!! It is really high - 134m. I have done bungy two years ago in Taupo, it is only 50m+ I was so excited at that time!!!!

Then the next crazy stuff I did was in Japan. I rode the world highest, longest and largest rolar-coaster!!! In that 3.5 minutes, it was so much fun but of course I was a bit scared during the time. But I am proud I did it. After that, we were going to challenge the 90 degree rolar-coaster. I have a second though after the first crazy experience, I was quite worry. But I told my it might be the only chance I can do it, or I may be not brave enough to do it in the future. So JUST DO IT! And it was not that bad and it was fun! A highlight of my Japan trip!

The longest (3.5min), the tallest (75m), the scariest (only know when u up there!)

I did it! I did it!

90degree roller coaster!

My mum and my sis are coming to NZ next week. We are going to South Island for a trip. I has been a long time I didn't travel with my family. Especially this trip was organised by me and it is going to be a lot of fun! My sister is planning to do Bungy! (of course if you come to NZ, you have to do it!) I was searching this activity in Queenstown (the adventure city of NZ). They have the highest Bungy Jump in the world!!!! So since you are going to jump why don't do the coolest one!

I just booked it. But when I look at the video and photos, actually I am quite scared... OMG!! am I going to do this again.. I know I will do it! It may be the last time I stay in NZ so why NOT!! ahhhhhhhh.............................. I will tell you how I feel!

My choice

What kind of life actually I want?

I have decided to stay in Malaysia after graduation and work in my parent company. The main reasons are my sister is leaving Malaysia soon. I have the responsible to take care of my parent, especially my dad health is not very stable. Besides, the business is not going very well. I feel like it is time for me to do something. These days I go to office everyday. I feel very tired after work but my mum still have to cook dinner and do house work. I feel sorry if I decide not to stay and help her.

However, I always have second thought. Every time I see my friend's photos who travel around the world. I feel like it is what I really want to have. If I have a choice, I would prefer to go to other country work and travel at the same time and keep moving. I will have my own life. But I know I can't do it now. I should take the responsibility.

May be one day, after my sister finish study and my parent can retired. I would like to put down everything and start my life trip again.

Will my dream come true? Hope it won't be too late.

I found them!

Last year August I went to Istanbul for AIESEC conference. On the way back to NZ, I stopped by Kuala Lumpur for six hours. I transfer some of the photos to my pen drive. However, when I back home (NZ), I could not find them anymore. It was so sad. Photos are the most important thing for me in a trip.

Two days ago, when I transfered the Chinese New Year photos, I suddenly found them again!!! I cant imagine it happened. I have gone through the photos many times. It makes me feel so good and remind me the Istanbul, Turkey trip!

NZ Delegates!

Accommodation of the conference @ Bursa - Nice Hotel

Closing Ceremony with Turkish "bands"

NZ stall @ Global Village

Turkish Delight!

Another nice photo

I tried to find him since the first day. Luckily I met him the last night of my trip

I watched this from travel channel before :)
