after 18 days back at home, it's time to come back melbourne again. when in kk airport, met my friend's mum so coincidence. she is flying over to sydney to visit both my friends over there. so yeah in kl we said bye coz she's flying sydney and i'm flying melbourne.
came back here on 10th june then my family arrived on 16th june. mum, bro and fui yee's stay here for only a week. sis, fui yee and van van stay here for a month till 14th july. it was good time with mum around but she worries me alot after she left i think. cooking everyday with soup for us. in between on 19th june i flew over to perth for lisa's wedding. close buddy of mine since high school also as her bridesmaid. i was totally sick during that time. flying to perth takes 5hrs from melbourne it's like killing me. i flew off from melbourne at 8 or 9am something arriving perth time around 12pm something. kelvin came to pick me up and brought me for lunch. then he brought me to his house after lunch to have a rest which i was so thankful. after that off for dinner, after dinner head over to lisa's house for a moment and see how's her preparation for her wedding. so 20th was her big day. morning 9am woke up shower went out breakfast then head over to lisa's place. to cut it short right after her reception at night 11pm something perth time i flew back to melbourne on the very same day. i arrived melbourne 5am something melbourne time. reached home shower, slept like 2 hrs then bring mum they all out again. that's why i was so sick. after mum left i spend more time at home resting. every alternate day i need to boil soup but need to cook everyday for my dearest fui yee.
on 7th july flew over to sydney for hillsong conference till 12th july. supposedly before sydney we got our gold coast trip but was being cancelled coz everyone was sick adding on with the swine flu going around so pretty worried to travel with sickness so that's why it was being cancelled.
ok back to hillsong conference. this year i didn't attend as a delegate but as a volunteer. cool huh???it is...very worth it but also very tiring. totally a different experiences being a delegate. what's more blessed is because i can give my conference ticket to my sis and after 6-7 years of not attending church she is giving a go. praise god changed her in the very conference. she is at least went church on last sunday after back from melbourne. continue pray god will changed her more and give her more relevation about her walk with god. so it was all good. fui yee enjoyed as well but was very tiring for her. conference ended on friday night. so saturday morning, i went out with fui yee to buy breakfast/lunch back hotel coz we are too tired to go out eat. so yeah we bought so much stuff and we spend like aud60++ that very meal. we were laughing as if we haven't eat almost the whole week because of conference every night we are almost eating the very same thing. that's how funny we always is and doing all stupid stuff.
13th night sending they all to airport which was another sad day for me. mum they all left i didn't cry at all maybe because sis they all still there. that night i thought i really won't cry but in the end i still can't contain it. after the very hugged tears coming down. sis and fui yee headed in so fast coz tears coming down from them too. on the way back home, i didn't talk much at all or should say i didn't talk. shower hide inside the room felt so different and quiet in the room. very cold coz normally including 4 persons in my room, we talked, chatted, laughed suddenly it's all disappear. tears come down without you noticing it at all. but now consider back to normal state....but i still misses all of them so much !!!
will post other stuffs and how is my journey lately coz i think it will be more long and need more inspiration to type..

Highlights for the couple of months !!
it's been 4 months for my last updates. here is a quick one where i have been so far for the couple of months.
may 28 2009 was one of the greatest and joyous day for our family. yeah my bro got married after dating with her girlfriend of 8 years. whole family is so happy about it at the same time i got the chance to be back home for 18 days. it's not very long yet short but a very memorable moment. it was such a busy day especially on 27 and 28 itself. 27th is the night before they got married where guy and gal would have their own dinner with relatives and friends. but in the end i did went to fui yee's place for a visit and chat a bit. then head back home before 12am to witness my bro what chinese said 'combing hair'...oh well i don't understand all of it but it's a tradition thingy. funny thing i remember was bro went to change all the bedsheet and stuff(all in red) but my mum came in and said 'who told you to change?'. mum said must be done by my aunty which is elder and married. so we all was laughing our heads off. then that aunty did the combing hair for bro. didn't really get to sleep really early but gotta wake up pretty early coz gotta pick up the BRIDE. i reckon i woke up like 7am something shower changed and prepared. i took my dv cam for me to record and sis got to take her dslr. so yeah family projects and we gotta drive our own car there. i leave once my bro leave coz gonna video it and then i gotta be first to arrived the bride's house to record the moment they arrived. but before we left, bro did another mistake. he opens his own door to enter the car which apparently should be his friend the 'driver' to open. he gotta come out and let the friend do it again. it was so funny. but on the car would be a red cloth to cover from left to right side on top. arriving bride's house, her uncle and aunty then gotta put another red cloth behind from left to right as well. it's alright if you doesn't understand what i'm saying. i can only imagine it for now but can't really get into words. never knew all these until i witness myself. so was anxious went to see fui yee still doing her make up and she is gorgeous seriously. about 930 i think she came down with her dad bringing her down handing her hand over to bro. btw, we got the timing to be there around 9am and must leave fui yee's house before 11am and arrived my house. then after exchanging rings, tea ceremony. also the same thing, my parents can't go with bro to pick up the bride. they must stay at home and wait. so after the tea ceremony, fui yee's parents can't go with her to my place as well only her uncles and aunties allow to go. so arriving home, my parents must stay inside the room before fui yee's enters the house. once she enters already once my parents can come out. it's something saying honoring/respecting my parents or something. i don't really know actually. then tea ceremony session my place starts. ok i got to drink from my bro. coz both me and sis is older. it super seldom and ages heard my bro actually called us 'jie yim cha'...that's like antique for us but those who saw the pics in fb understand we were laughing our heads off during the tea session. one funny happen as well, when i went for the tea, dad said ok let me take over for the tea for you and sis. i said you know how to use???he said yes...then end up i realised he didn't even press record...that's like so so hilarious with my dad expression on it...it was good tea food mum order...love it as well dinner. dinner didn't get to eat much....it was a new beginning life for both bro and fui yee. another level of life with marriage.
but during that night i was a bit sad also because of my aunt. was talking with uncle and he suggesting one time we should go china together and travel around. we were so happy chatting and suddenly touches the most sensitive issue. it was my aunty who passed away which is my uncle's wife, aunty is so dear to me and my godmum. uncle started with the topic how is my current aunt condition?then uncle said he don't dare to see my current aunt coz will makes him think back of my aunty(his wife). eventually tears flow down from my uncle and both me and sis trying to console my uncle but in the end both me and sis can't control anymore. tears started flowing down from our eyes as well. memories suddenly all coming back and wishing that moment my aunt was there to witness bro getting married and stuff like that. really missing her so much. after like 2-3minutes, we all trying to recollect ourselves. but at the same time fui yee was there and didn't heard the conversation suddenly ask sis why is she crying. later only she found out the reason. that night indeed i was very happy for both bro and fui yee yet my heart really misses my aunty so much...indeed people who left you forever will only crafted memories in your heart no matter how much you wished they would be there, but it's all only memories.
