| I was to tired after last night's Mid-Autumn Festival Gathering with Hong Kong mates. And I got up at 11:20am this morning... @@ (I was stunned for quite a while as I read the clock. I simpe couldn't believed it!!!)
After I had my first ever brunch, I surfed on the Internet again, to watch some news and did some reading. And I was reminded that I should try to borrow the textbook for Logic and English in the public library. So I went out. But it's SUNDAY!!!! Everything closes early on Sundays! Even Saintbury's is closed...=0= (I wonder what do British people do on weekends...)
Sigh... it's all my fault that I woke up too late. Fine~ I just walked around the city centre. As I turned into Albert's Square, I saw some mounted soldiers. Of course I immediately took out my camera and took some pictures. (So Touristic XDDD) Suddenly, the bell of the Town Hall rang. I turned my head and saw two rows of Victorian buildings along the road. It was simply gorgeous!!! >v< The mounted soldiers + the bell + the archectures = SOOO European~ (Sorry, I am this trivial. Haha~) I was just so infatuated in that moment!

| Back from Sydney. Feel like part of me is still there....
It feels so weird to be home. Everything is so familiar but at the same time strange. Can't tell what's missing but it just doesn't seem right... Perhaps I really do miss my homestay family...

| My exams are basically over before the examination period. Now I only have one more paper to go and the exam of the Korean course.
And then I will start my 2-week Teaching Practice at Holy Trinity College on May 18. Well... I am not excited about it at all. I am never a passionate teacher. And I know how exhausting I will be >< Hopefully I will have the patience to persist. Otherwise, a lot of more students will suffer. :P
It's father's 60th Birthday. We plan to do something big (bigger than usual at least). So we will look for a suitable restaurant. And make proper invitation. Talk to SOME troublesome relatives and also nice ones. I don't want to miss this because of my TP or Immersion. So please cooperate unclessss!
The day after my TP, I will fly to Sydney with about 1/4 of my class for the Summer Immersion Program. I hope that I can really challenge myself to speak to my host family this time. I lost this opportunity when I was in Melbourne in F.2 and also lost the chance to go to a lot of fun places. But it's real challenging to someone like me. Shy. Ignorant. With poor English.
Will be back in late July. And I will have my one month of summer in one year. Will probably have quite some running for my VISA to UK. Guess I will have my certificate of acceptance by then for the VISA. A better case would be they accept my family send them my application while I am in Australia. Otherwise I might not be able to attend the orientation course...
Then I will fly to Manchester for another Winter. Will probably gain some weight after so many winters...

| Had lunch with my flute teacher, Peter Wong. We talked a little about what I plan to do and wanna be in the future. He has raised quite a number of questions and asked me to think of someone whom I really want to imitate. Well... I guess the problem is I know simply too little for me to know whom I really admire and to form the kind of person I really want to become... Sigh~ It's probably about time for me to think about this question. I appreciate some kind of people. And I know what kind of person I am. Does it mean that I have to change myself and be like that particular kind of people I appreciate? Or should I just follow what I am?

| Long time no see...
Just walk by and want to write down what I have done these days in case I don't remember.
Whom am I talking to? No one reads except me anyway. Okay.
4.11.08 Helped in In Dialouge with Chris Patten. As the assistant of CP and Melissa. On TV as I handed the souvenir to Vice Chancellor and got it back from CP. Haha~ Dad and mum went travelling.
8.11.08 HCAP Interview. Brother told me he wouldn't be there lor... So scared to see him in the panel. Sigh... I knew I didn't do well. But that's me. The quiet girl who speaks with a voice which nobody can hear. Went home. Changed clothes. Back to church. Worship team singing. Kind of boring now. Then hotpot @IEd Sandy's dorm. =]
9.11.08 Sleepy. Absent from morning school. Almost late for flute practice with the choir. Didn't do quite well...:( But it was okay in the worship. Took photos together. Celebrate for the 37th(??) anniversary. Practiced 3K running with them. I am the fastest among those who run for 3K. Even fater than Gary^2. Haha. 7L BBQ @CU. Near Cindy's dorm. I am the one who took the cake again. Walked around the campus for a while. Started BBQ late coz most of them were late. And it was super windy. We spent a long long long time to lit the charcoal...=.= Anyway, had a great great time with old friends~ :]
