南半球的孤单

南半球有一个被孤立的小城市
人们通常称她为‘珀斯’
黑天鹅是她的标志
因此我管她称之为‘天鹅小城’



漂泊在遥远南半球的天鹅小城
陌生的环境 陌生的味道 陌生的人事物
我,
思念故乡的感觉日渐浓厚
我,
想念家乡的一切一切




一个白色的丑小鸭仔在黑色的天鹅小城里
显得是多么的孤单无助
丑小鸭仔仍然无法融入黑天鹅的生活圈子
也许,
丑小鸭仔不管再怎么努力奋斗
仍然都是在别人的眼里
永远的丑小鸭仔
永远都无法变成天鹅的丑小鸭



 "Oh, thank Heaven! I am so ugly that even the dog won't bite me!" sighed the duckling.

  这只丑小鸭仔叹息说:“哦,谢谢老天爷!我是这么丑,因此连狗都不会咬我!”



就算再怎么看我
就算再怎么讨厌我
我都以我是丑小鸭仔的身份而骄傲
不管别人怎么看我
我就是我
不需要为任何人而改变

我就是我
来自赤道的白小鸭~

相信明天会更好



He said to himself, " I never dreamed that I could be so happy when I was the ugly duckling!"

  丑小鸭仔对着自己说:“当我是那只丑小鸭的时候,我从来也没梦想过我能够这么快乐!”

Say 'Hi' from the Swan City

It has been a long long time since the last update...
okay, let me summarize my journey from Malaysia to Australia~ ^^

Before leaving the country, as a sponsored student, the most important event for us is no other than attending a 'Pre-departure Briefing" from our sponsor, the 'JPA'!
why?? the reason has only one: to get $$$~ wohoo! =P

And this is our last and final opportunity (perhaps ><) to meet with other schoolmates ... >.< This photo was taken in 'the Great Hall' of my pre-U college, "INTEC UiTM" after the briefing ended... they are some of my best friends during my college life ^^

The 'Group of Four': they were my housemates and buddies for the 1 and a half years duration of AUSMAT course in INTEC~ they take good care of me, taught me Mathematics, helped me out in my assignments, gave me strengths & support when i was down or in bad mood, and they were always my best companions....

*************************************************************************************
After getting the money all all the information needed to study abroad, it's time to have farewell gathering with all my old friends in my hometown... We decided to go for a cruise trip around the Penang island...

Our friendship will last forever and ever....
"Famous SIX" and "Si Da Chou Nv" will never fade in my memory~ ^^
I will never forget the night that we came so close to each other and this is the first time we talked to each other from heart to heart~
