What has been happening??
I left Melbourne already. I've finished my degree and brokenheartedly decided to go back home for good. Many people feel sorry for my final decision. Well, that's fair enough. As all of you've known me quite well too, right? ;)
Curiousity kills, agree? That was exactly what I felt about this country I live in now. To travel to many countries and cities has become my obsession since the first time i stepped my foot outside my own country. And to go in this country I currently live was one of them. To be honest, the familiarity of Melbourne has really kicked in and to move from my own comfort zone didn't sound like a good idea. That's why until three months a go, i kept the option away from my head.
But the opportunity was in front of my very own eyes. And I know I couldn't miss it. True that so many things were greatly sacrificed and things have to be compromised to reach your ambition, so did I. My heart was and still ache each time I think about Melbourne and all the memories I had in that city. Although I'm still so thankful for my awesome bunch of friends. They really made my leaving felt both so hard but yet easy. I know we were all sad, but their laughs and wise words were really comforting than saddening. Because we all know that we're surely gonna meet again...
Before I left Melbourne, someone told me that even though it sucks to leave, i have to believe that better places and better things are waiting for me. and i could only say, i really hope so.
So,,,here i am. A completely different city like i used to live. I've found so many crazy excitements, bizzare foods, and culture richness in this city. Admittedly, I have this thing called (for umpteenth times) culture shock in me , but thank God I'm still survived *which I almost doubt it myself*. Shocking and entertaining, not to mention it is also depressing :(
More stories coming up. I can't wait to write :D

hey vin! Ternyata pindah ke beijing toh? have fun at the new place!
Wild guess, Beijing Language University?
Ha,how come suddenly a lot of indo Chinese are trying to learn Chinese eventually.
Is beijing energetic or constructive still? Indos will have to fight with winter weather there.
As a Chinese, I'd be happy to know what China appears to be from a foreigner's eye, if u don't mind put it in ur blog.
Hi ween, I was so surprised to read you've gone to China - am I allowed to know why?
Anyway, I hope you have a great time but if there's one thing I'd like you to do for me, it's find out who makes the best Peking Duck! I am passionate about this dish!! *g*
BTW, Melai is lodging her fiancee visa this week... hope you can make it back by the 15th of May coz that's when we are getting married..... :-)))))
