After three weeks of busy holiday, my second semester in Adelaide finally started with the freezing cold morning. You can see the water vapour coming out from your mouth when you exhale. Try to imagine how cold the weather is!! Guess what, it is only 0.8 degree celcius when I walked to campus this morning and that is the coldest weather I ever experienced in my life. I like cold weather before I came to Adelaide but now I understand cold weather can be frustrating as well! The cold wind is like a javelin pierce into your shirts and you will feel like your skin is freezing. The power of nature huh. Really scary.
Waiting for holiday is a part of a student life! Who doesn't like holiday? I doubted there is anyone will say no. However, I actually planned to do lots of things during the holiday but somehow I didn't manage to complete most of my plan. Laziness really is the thief of time. For conclusion, I just spend my holiday in Adelaide enjoying myself visiting all the interesting places such as wildlife park and germen town. Besides that, I participated in a few b'day party for my friends and that was really magnificent.
New semester is full of new challenges and new obstacles to be overcome with. Among all the problems, I think the hardest will be how to become a more benevolent person. I have been trying to control myself for a long time but it seems that the power of my bad habits is stronger than my determination. Hope I will gain more strength to deal with the growing evil in my heart. May amtb guide me all the way..
If you want to browse the pictures taken during my holiday, feel free to visit my facebook account and leave some comment. I am lazy to post all the wonderful pictures here. sorry about that. :P:P
P/S: 王妙音居士，be strong.. sorry that I can't give you comfort and give you support at that moment. I think amtb can hear you and help him to change to a better person.. Please accept my apologies for not being able to bring you happiness at this moment.. Take care .. 阿弥陀佛。

Back from Rushi camp!!
One more weeks to go!!! I am going to start my second semester soon. Hopefully I will enjoy it as much as I could during the first semester. My result was out yesterday and guess what i have for my COMM? It is I which means incomplete. Don't ask me the meaning as I don't know what happened as well. Most of my friends have failed it and hopefully i will at least get a P2 for it after it is completed.
The buddhist camp is rather enjoyable. I met a lot of new friends from all over the world like Japan, Vietnam, Indonesia and Hong Kong. the camp reminds me of the days when I was one of the commitees organising the similar youth camp in Tampin buddhist accosiation. I am quite suprised that they only organised the camp for two times before this as their events and games are really interesting and meaningful. It is really one of the most enjoyable camp I ever had. A great job! I learnt a lot from the camp and hopefully I manage to use all the knowledge I gain in my life.
Being one of the buddhist I am learn how to deal with death ( the ultimate problems ) and all sorts of problem that we used to have. However, with my affliction, I still can't control myself well enough to remain peaceful all the time. I really hope that one day I can achieve what I want to and bring happiness to the people around me just like the laughing buddha. Death. I suppose most of the teenager wouldn't think about this problem until they get old one day. I am lucky to find my own solution to overcome the death. Have you find yours? If you haven't, NOW is the perfect time for you to think about it. Don't think that you have a lot of time to think about it later because if you don't make a move now, you might regret later. Tomorrow will always be a mystery and who knows our life will end by tomorrow? Think about it seriously.
Find your peace in your heart. Then you will find your own way to live happily. First, we need to answer two questions.
What is life?
What is the ultimate goal of your life?
Me?
I am sure you know my answer if you followed my post.
My ultimate goal of life..
Obviously, Pure land....
AMTB..

Holiday starts!!
My holiday starts with a birthday party for Hooi lie after the toughest paper, COMM. Agr!!! Whatever it is, my holiday mood starts when I was doing the paper. I even fall asleep when I was doing my summary.. Speechless..
Holiday is the best time for us to relax and keep our minds away from all the books, assignments and tests. Holiday allow me to sleep more, play more and have my mind relax more.. I know you understand why I like holiday so much. Who doesn't like?
My writing skill is regressing... So do my speaking skill. These are all due to my laziness. Having no particular mood or enthusiasm to write, I neglected my blog for a long time. I feel extremely remorseful when i read somebody else blog. The way they present their life, the words they used really makes me indulge in a virtual world of language. I wonder... would I have the skill to create my own language world? But anyway, I will just sui yuan and try my best now.. So that i won't feel bad trying and trying again.
I will pass my first week of holiday walking around adelaide and know more about the city I am living in. Wildlife park, shopping centre and any places that can arouse my interest shall wait for my presence in these few days. I have prepared my bus tickets and here we go!! ^^
The second week is for buddhist camp organised by zhu lin temple. It is a youth camp which allow us to know more about buddhism and try some meditation. My mom is worried about the style they are using as I, the follower of pure land style, shall focus on chanting the amituofo buddha's name and not confusing myself with other methods. However, there will be no obstacles as I am the one who is controlling my mind. I will just chant amituofo while doing meditation and everything will be prefect!! This will be a good chance for me to train my chatting skill. ^^ yeah~
Third week is still blank and free from any plan. I will just spend some time with te ying and my friends.. If I will have any plan, I will tell you all.
That is the plan for my holiday. Lets have fun~ cheers~

We are together..
Sometimes i wonder.. Should I continue to do that? Should I continue to sacrifice? I am learned to be tolerent. But I think soemtimes we really need to show to them that we are together as a team. Not playing solo. If we lose, we will lose together. Therefore every single team member have to take responsibility about the losing.
Hrm.. I think I need to practice more and learn more.. So that I will know what should I do in whatever circumstances. I really need to learn hard...
