Last day in Melbourne


It's always hard to say goodbye, especially when you are the one leaving.
I have had a few farewell parties and I just feel so privileged to have many friends who love me.


I have so many things to be thankful of, and I regret that I had often taken them for granted .

Over the past 7 years, I have had many ups and downs in my life, and one thing that I am most grateful for is friendship. I remember when I first entered high school, my English was not very good and I didn't have many friends. I became very quiet and was afraid to speak to people. It was until Pearl came into my life and invited me to join her friends for lunch that I started to feel loved and a sense of belonging. Thanks to Beatrice, Tang, Jennifer and Erica too for accepting me and welcomed me as a friend.

These kind of incidences you will never forget. In one of the loneliest time of your life someone show love towards you and accept you as a friend, it directly touches your heart, and indeed the friendship with Pearl, Beatrice, Erica, Jennifer, Tang and Iris meant a lot to me.

I have so many people I need to thank and I guess I will have to sit down one day and write letters to each person individually. However, I would like to express my appreciation in general.


I thank God for choosing me and opened my eyes at this early age. Thank Him for sending me to PLC, for giving me Christain friends, for using them to show good examples of Christ by loving me. Thank God for everyone in my life, for giving me support, for accepting me for who I am and teach me many things about life.

Thank you my dearest PLC friends! I love you! You are the best bunch of friends, and I always have a great time hanging out with you. It's just so comfortable to be around you that I don't need to pretend to be someone else. One of the greatest thing is to be able to talk about anything with one another and laugh about random things.

Thank you Eva, Ruby, Shermayne, Shelina, Shelly, Lucy, Charis, Teresa, Cecilia, Stella, Grace, Yinling, Jenny, Lisa, Beatrice, Jennifer, Tang, Erica, Pearl, Iris, Queenie, Cissy, Danina, Breeanna, Sarah B, Luara, Carrie, Cat, Ming Kyong, Carol, Lucia, Daisy, Bree, Mish, Cici and Helen...etc for being my friends and giving me care and support throughout the whole time.

Thank you for those who constantly pray for me. Thank you for listening to me, caring for me, giving me hugs, giving me words of encouragement, and comforting me.

I have learnt a lot from everyone I have met and every person is unique and important to me. Thank you for coming into my life and be my dearest friends. I love you all!!

As I am about to embark on a new journey, I pray that our friendship will continue to deepen and that we will continue to support and love each other.

God has created me to be a strong woman and does not make me cry easily. To be homest, it's sad to leave; but the good thing is that I know that God will be with me and all of you wherever we go.

I do not ask for anything, but my greatest hope is that you come to know Christ- the truth, the way and the life and that your relationship with Him grows daily, and your eyes may be opened to see the greatest treasure in the world.

I love you Melbourne and see you soon

Life in TW

Wow, I can't believe that it's been 12 days since I have been back. I thank God that this is one of the best holidays I have ever had for a long time. Perhaps because it's a time of transformation and a time to look forward to something new. But, one thing I also have to acknowledge and be thankful for is my church in Taiwan. Thank God that mum and aunt are heavily involved in church activities so I am able to participate in various events and programs without having to go over the process of fear to making new friends or getting used to the environment again. Looking back these 12 days, I can't believe how many activities I have already done and am so grateful to be able to make so many friends in such a short time. Last week I went river tracing with a group of people from church. This is only a photo from the internet. I posted this to show you what river tracing is like. It's self explanatory from the photo above. What you do is climbing against the water to rea...

What a relief!!

As you read previous entries, you may have realised that I had been stressed. That is because two days ago, I found out that I received a FAIL for one of the subjects last semester. In disbelief, I emailed the subject coordinator, but he didn't reply immediately. I was left really stressed and worried as I am about to go to Japan for exchange and ready to finish my last semester there. Who knows why things don't go the way we planned. I thought a lot, I was agitating over the fact that I will have to rush back to Melbourne for this subject and spend another $2000+ for it. I even blamed myself for not doing the assessment well enough to allow this to happen. I was also afraid to tell this BAD news to my parents and knew if I told them, they would be quite angry and disappointed. The stress accumulated so much that I could hardly breathe and felt quite sick. I couldn't even concentrate on doing anything. I continued to watch Korean and Japanese dramas, but they all didn't...

Be strong and courageous

Joshua 1:7-9 NIV "Be strong and very courageous. Be careful to obey all the law my servant Moses gave you; do not turn from it to the right or to the left, that you may be successful wherever you go. Keep this Book of the Law always on your lips; meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do everything written in it. Then you will be prosperous and successful. Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord  your God will be with you wherever you go." Joshua was chosen by God and was given instructions to be successul in what God chose Him to do. It is sad to see that people don't understand or believe that- Success in God is the greatest success we can have in life. We seek success in life, even pray for success but often fail to follow the seemingly easy instructions from God. When we do not succeed in things, we blame God. God told us through Joshua, there are 2 ways to be successful 1) ...
