Long Time No See

2010-06-05T01:06:00.003+10:00

Hi guys

I forgot I have a blog to update. I know I had not update for a very very long long time. Too busy to update it. Will try to update more often.

Firstly still taking driving lesson. Secondly, busy with my new jobs and very tiring. Lastly, can't wait to go to bed to sleep when I got a chance.

Please forgive me and hope you guys understand.

Nothing comes good but troubles always appear

2009-11-26T23:25:00.000+11:00

Today I feel so moody. Seem to me, my life is always full of trouble.

I finally finish my studies but I have to look for house to rent again. My landlord just sold the house I staying now. I had to relocate AGAIN..... It is so hard to look for house to rent now a day. The worst is the renting rate for house had gone up. That's make our situation worst.

Another problem is our PR application had postpone to 2012. Due to the Australia government had recently change the migration law, we are affected. Just because Gerry's course is not under the demanding list, the government has the right to postpone our PR application. THIS IS SUCK.

Although I had completed my course, I still trying to look for job. So far I have no news from anyone and I had sent numbers of job applications.

My life is upside down in a way. I just feel so demoralize right now. I'm always a positive thinking person and take up any challenges. I believe one day I will success in life such as career and family. I never doubt GOD and believe he always around to help me. But sorry GOD, this time I can't help myself to think that you had forget about me. All I ask for is a proper roof top to cover me family head, a proper job to feed my family with 3 full meal and a peaceful, quiet life. I not asking for a luxury life which cost few millions of dollars. I JUST WANT A NORMAL LIFE WITH MY FAMILY, THAT'S ALL......

Frankly speaking, I had not enjoy my life much since I came to Australia. I willing to sacrifice in order to get a better life in Australia.

TO GOD: Please do not punish me from not doing my praying regularly. I always try my best to do my praying and read bible. I always busy with studies, houseworks, cooking, working and taking care my family. By the time, I have time for the day, I already exhausted like a hell. I had give up all my hobbies to support me family.

WHAT ELSE YOU WANT MORE FROM ME????

Brain Dead....

2009-09-28T21:23:00.000+10:00

I have to stay calm and relax in order to complete my assessments. But it is very hard to do!!!!!!!!!!

Oh god, please help me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I had been depressed for a few days. I do not know how long I can stand my husband. One month ago, he sprained his leg and then recover. But a few days ago, he sprained his leg ago and the worst is the same leg again. This time the sprain get worst. Last time I told him after the leg recover he need to do more exercise such as walking. I told him to spend at least 20mins to 30mins for walking everyday but he is not listening to me.

I do not know what to do anymore. Firstly, I got my studies to stress me a lot and now he giving more stress. I do not know how to handle anymore. I feel that I had enough of studies, housework, shopping for food, cooking and have to worry for him. I know he is under stress working 2 jobs that why I tried very hard not to throw my anger to him. If I have to keep on like this, I going to be very depress.

PLEASE GOD, CAN YOU TELL ME WHAT TO DO. I LOST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Escape From the Bush Fire at Maryville

2009-02-08T20:48:00.000+11:00

I was lucky on Saturday. Gerry and I had checked in to a motel in Marysville. We wanted a short trip during the weekend and never think of the bush fire will come to the Yarra Valley.

At about 3.57pm, we were ask to leave the motel and head to Alexander. At first, we thought of going back home but in the end we can't. All the roads that we could go back home were closed. We have no choice but to head to Eildon. We had to stay there for a night and waited for the situation to be better.

Luckily today one of the road had open and we managed to drive back home . We watched the news and Marysville was totally destroyed by the bush fire. We felt that we are very lukcy and managed to stay alive. In the news, there were 65 deaths at the moment.

Anyway I glad to be home now.

My Lift Seem to Run Like a Routine

2008-07-28T20:30:00.000+10:00

My life had been a routine for 2 weeks plus. I have school from Monday to Friday. From 9am to 5pm but Friday end at 4.30pm. But Friday I still have to go to work at 5pm to 9pm. As for Saturday and Sunday, I have to work from 11am to 8.30pm. I do my weekly shopping on Saturday. I also have to do my laundry and cleaning the houses too. I still have to cook everyday for dinner and lunch for next day but of course cooking for two every meal. Except for Friday, I don't have to cook dinner cause Gerry will cook it. The agreement we make. I cannot afford to eat out cause my wages had been reduced because I had been working lesser hour. I try not to spend in school unless I need it. As for my studies, I will try to revise and do my homework in the weekday. That way, I will not fall behind.

As for my course, I like it very much cause they teaching more on practical stuffs then theory stuffs. Good for my job hunting next time. I'm the most quiet person in the class. I love to sit alone so that I can focus more in class. I do mix around with my classmate during break and lunch time. Other then that, I rather stay by myself. I not going school to make friends. I have a friend name Corrine , she is an Aussie and she is a very nice person. Most of the time, I with her and we help each other. Unlike Cam (Australia Vietnamese), I called her bitch. She love to show off her extra fat flesh around her wrist. Actually she not that fat but she do have a little fats. She always trying to act cool and smart in class. That's why I don't really like her cause most of the time she bullshitting. As for other classmate, I found they are alright and once a while I will chat with them (not that often).

As for myself, I found that I speak English better than last time. I felt that I speak better English than last time. But of course will have some mistake for the grammer. I not sure whether I write broken English or not. Just hope my English can improve more for writing. That way I will not be afraid of my assessment.

I now looking for another better wages job, I intend to quit the current one. Feel that is too low pay and my pay had been the same for almost 2 years. Well that's about all my life right now. I believe I can pull through this.

Sick again

2008-07-26T21:48:00.000+10:00

After 2 weeks of school, I sick again. I been coughing for 1 week and finally today I got an asthma attack. Felt do terrible. Suppose to work 11am to 8.30pm today but I called my boss to inform him I not feeling well. I told him I want to go at 5pm instead of 11am and he agreed. Cannot afford not to work cause not much income after since I start school. Just part of life I have to go through. Suffer then enjoy.

God please give me strength.

Almost Faint On The Street Today

2008-05-20T19:39:00.000+10:00

Today I went to donate my plasma. Before I go, I had very good breakfast, a cup of coffee, a glass of milk and a glass of water. I weight myself at the center and I weight 69kg. OMG I lost weight again. Anyway I was alright after I done the plasma donation. So I went home to wait for my friend Emily. We plan to go for coffee and decide to walk to Stables Shopping Center. After walking half way there, I felt so dizzy until I cannot continue at all. I quickly sat on the floor and almost want to faint. My friend Emily look at me and don't feel right. She quickly went to take her car out and fetch me. She told me to wait and will be back very fast. While waiting for her, I throw up all my breakfast and felt so much better. Lucky her house is just 10mins away from my house. Not long after she came with her car and we went to have coffee together. I felt so much better after I puked.

I never have this kind of feeling before. I sure I should rest after the donation. I shouldn't walk. I learned my lesson this time

Miracle

2008-05-16T22:46:00.000+10:00

OMG Nasha came back this morning at 5.30am and it is Gerry's birthday. I was sleeping at that time and I heard her meow. I jump up and wake Gerry up. I asked him whether he hear the meow too? He replied yes. So I quickly ran to the front door to called Nasha and here she ran into the house. I ran to the kitchen to give her food cause I knew she must be starving. I saw her and cannot believe my eye. I so happy and relieved. I kept touching her to see she got wounds or not. I kept asking Nasha where she been all these days and she kept meowing at us. After 1 hour, we went to sleep again together with Nasha. Yet I still have the feeling that I am dreaming about this morning. All these nights, I been having nightmare about Nasha coming back with wounds all over her body. Anyway she is back now and also in a good shape now.

Gerry and I are very happy now and everything back to normal. We were so tensed for the last fews days and hardly talk. We love Nasha so much that we take her as our daughter instead of a pet. So now we are one happy family now . Tonight I can have my beautiful sleep and I have to work full day tomorrow. My colleague Leng is sick. I have to cover her shift. Today until Monday I have to work full day. I now very exhausted. Just bear with it and I will be alright.

THANK YOU GOD AND NASHA DON'T YOU EVER RUN AWAY AGAIN

I lost Nasha Again

2008-05-13T19:16:00.000+10:00

Nasha went missing again. This is the second time. The first time she went missing for 17hours and she came back herself. Now she went missing for more than 24hours and still have not come back. I tried to look for her everywhere and still cannot find here. I really don't know what to do. I feel so empty without her around. I can't help myself thinking of her. I keep thinking is she alright, is she cold and starving. I even think is she still alive or what.

This is the second time I lost my pet. First time was my dog name Lucky (10 years ago). All I can do is to wait.

Just now my brother told me my mum admitted to hospital. She had a high fever. Seen like today is a bad day for me. My feeling now is all upside down. I'm so upset until I just do nothing.

What am I going to do with my lost Nahsa????????????????????????????

End Of Nightmare

2008-04-12T22:17:00.000+10:00

I over happy today. We finally got a house to rent and not with any agent. We found the advertisement on Gerry's school notice. He talked to the new landlord and he make arrangement with him today to meet up. He offered us $300 per week and we accepted it. Although it was over our budget but we think that things can work out. The best was he don't even need any documents and he said he just wan to meet us. That's enough for him to decide whether he is comfortable with us. We found that the rent is a bit too high but the house is near my working place. I don't have to spend on transport . No matter what we finally got our house.

Anyway our nightmare is over. Now is waiting to move and maybe will be in 1 week times.

Thank you god for helping us. I pleased and can't wait to move. I now start to pack my stuffs

Going To Have Nightmare

2008-04-07T23:54:00.000+10:00

Hiaz tomorrow going to have nightmare. My landlord is going to the property agent with me. I don't how will thing turn out to be and I cannot imagine now. Hope everything go smoothly to get a house to rent. If something go wrong, I can die for her to see.

GOD PLEASE HELP ME!!!!!!

I'm So Shocked

2008-04-05T22:07:00.000+11:00

Today I talked to my landlord about the decision whether I going to stay until Feb 09. I felt so uncomfortable to talk to her cause she is so unreasonable. At the end, its turn up to be something else.

I told her we decided to move out cause we need to space for our future studies. I asked her to sign another reference letter that not do not include our cat. She looked very happy that we still want to move out and she advised us to put the rent here under $255 per week instead of $150. She said that maybe was the cheap rent gave us the problem. She said the agent would think how can we afford the rent outside. She even explained to me a lot of things go around property and I finally understand what's going on. She even promised she will help us out with the agent side. All I do is give her the property address (that I want to rent) and go along with her on this coming Tuesday.

I hope this will help us a lot and make sure there is chance to move out ASAP. After listened to her, I quite in shocked and also happy. I never expect her telling me all this stuffs. I even pray to God before I talk to her. At least everything went smoothly.

THANK YOU GOD. YOU ALWAYS BY MY SIDE TO HELP ME.

Hard Decision

2008-03-31T00:50:00.000+11:00

Today my landlord asked Gerry and I why we don't use the rent money to buy a house. Instead of looking for house to rent, why not buy it. As we told her we are waiting apply PR in Australia, we don't want to make the decision for buying house. She told us we can sell the house if we fail to get PR. The thing is buying and selling is not so easy as she think. Especially all the paper works and hassle stuffs. She think we open bank and have a lot of money. We trying not to spend too much money. After since I back from Singapore, we hardly go for take away food or eat out. I have been looking for second job to earn as much money as possible. I also try to ask my current boss whether they need me more hour to work. Right now, I start to earn $400 a week. I am tired but I have no choice.

Later she told us she will let us stay until we get the confirmation for PR, which about Feb next year. She told us she want us to leave because her sisters ( don't know how many sisters) from Greece coming to stay with her for 4 months. She told us another reason for not letting us stay was she want her freedom back. She said she willing to help us by letting us stay in her house until next year. She said herself have a good heart and let us save enough money to buy a houses once we got the PR in Australia. She said renting house outside need to have $5000 out front because need to buy fridge, washing machine, furnitures and TV. All these need money.

What a mouth full of BULLSHIT!!!!!

At first want us to move out by end of this year, now can let us stay until next year Feb. Did she ever think she is not a easy person to live together? Although she only come back home from Sunday till Tuesday, the days with her around is like hell. She don't care of anyone at all. She walks so heavier than the elephant. No matter what she do in the houses, it is always so loud and noisy. She don't care whether Gerry or I were study or sleeping. Gerry listen to his music loud using his headphone while he studying, he still can hear her moving or doing stuffs. Sometimes she threw our newspaper without asking us. She loves to run our lives for us by telling us not to buy under special food. We have use so much patient to put up with all her BULLSHITS. We have quite enough for all these BULLSHITS already.

The thing is if we continue to stay with her, we have to put up with all her BULLSHITS again. Not only that, her sisters coming and we feel that worst thing coming too. Maybe she will come back home everyday to accompany the sisters. Then the houses will full of noise. How can we put up with all this noise? Not only that, she told us if we agree to to stay on, we have to respect their privacy. She talked like now we are not doing that.

In some points, I do agree with her. But before we decide to move out, we had done a price search. We could get fridge and washing machine under good condition and cheap price. All we need are to look for it and we found it. For furniture, we found some and was for free. Some houses threw their furniture outside their house to let people pick up. All we need are car to take them and they are in good condition. Just clean and sun a bit, that's it. So far I got 2 couches, 4 chairs, 1 table, 1 study table, 1 small office drawer and mattress base for free. I only spend a bit of money to buy 2 bedroom drawer and coffee table for $60 only. Sometimes we don't have to buy first hand furniture, it is much cheaper to go for second hard stuffs. She makes us gone through all the hassle and now she say let us stay.

If we choose to stay with her, we only thinking of her cheap rent. But no freedom. How much longer we can put up with her? If we choose to move out, I have to pay more rent but we gain my TOTAL FREEDOM. Of course we have to pay the all the water, gas and electrical bills by ourselves. Right now, we pay half the electrical and gas bills and she pay the water bill. The phone and Internet bills are under us. What should we do?

GOD PLEASE HELP US TO DECIDE

03 Mar 08 : Having Fun

2008-03-03T13:38:00.000+11:00

I had a lot of fun yesterday.

There were 3 guys came in to my work place to buy $4.50 chips. They went off and will come back later to collect it. I think they are about early 20 of their age. 10mins later, they came back to collect their chips and one of them took 2 bottles of 1.25 litres of soft drink without paying. I went to chase him to ask him to pay or give the drinks back to us. The jerk just walked and kept shouting F you. Of course I did scolded him back and told him to F himself. I also warned him I will called the police. I prepared to take my shoes off and throw at him but he dropped the drinks on the floor in time. At the end I just picked up and walked back to my working place. I gave him a last sentence that was "I feel ashamed for Australia because of you this kind of bastard. "

Frankly speaking, I quite scared at that time. But I feel that if I don't do anything and let him go. He will sure come back and do it the second time. I know I putting myself in risk and of course I well prepare to fight back. Anyway what is life without risk. Just make sure your mind is fast enough to react the situation. As for my colleague, Leng was so scared and become timid. I believe in life you need to have courage to do a lot of things. But of course, you need to be caution too. Well just hope this will not happen to me again

Happy day for me

2008-03-01T23:38:00.000+11:00

My boss told me my working time for march will change. At the end, I went to ask them instead of waiting for them to tell me anything. They told me once after Good Friday, my time will increase. Let hope they keep their promise to me. As I know, permission are mend to break. Let see how.

Anyway going to view 2 houses on coming Wednesday. I hope I can get to rent either one of them cause they are still within my current place I staying now. I kind of love to stay in Mill Park. First of all, I find that Mill Park are very safe and quiet suburb.

Yesterday I manage to open a bank account in Australia, I so happy. I had done it without any problem. My next plan is once i get my bank statement, I will go and apply for Leaner Permit. Then is time for me to learn driving. I also had success in enrolling into my course and now have to wait for school to start. It will start on 14th July 2008.

This week I had done quite a few things and i so happy about it. My birthday just over and this is a fresh new 31 years old for me. So far i feel that i had quite a smooth life and I happy already. Where got life so easy and smooth. Of course will have hard time too. Just take it easy and find solution to solve it. Well god had been very nice to me already so just keep myself going

Jiayou Jiayou Myself

Everyone, you must not forget about God (Always)

Busy Day

2008-02-26T23:10:00.000+11:00

Had been a busy week until today. Morning had to bring my cat to the vet for her annual vaccination and also gone to pay my school fee. Haiz... anyway finally some of the things had done. Now is to wait for the result for my renting house application. Renting house in Australia seem to be very hard. Look like ten thousand of people want to rent house. Going to have a hard time to rent a house. Well wish I have the luck to get successful.

Still have a lot of stuffs to do. Have to apply for student visa for my studies and it cost AUD$430. Woo so expensive. I still have to wait for 6 weeks to approve my visa. Not only that, I have have to go down to main office to get my student visa. Don't even have break to breathe properly or watch my anime. I so wish that the time can stop for me to let me complete whatever stuff i need to do. like that i can have a proper rest. Too bad no such thing at all.

Just pray god

21st Feb 2008

Haha, my first blog and my first post.

Hmmm..... what to write? I don't really know what to write. Anyway i had been busy since the day i returned to Melbourne. Looking for houses to rent and make appointment for my cat, Nasha for her annual check up. What a life. I found that people in Singapore are so rude and proud. Maybe life there is so stress until everyone so like that.
