Easter with good tidings

2nd April 2010

61st Day in Melbourne

Cooling

Today's the Good Friday, national holiday here in Melbourne as well. Went to church in the city and no places are open on this day..you know how the Australians value their quality of life, so unlike Singaporeans who will make full use of holidays to make money, the Australians take time off...Besides, Easter is a family celebration, so all the more people wants to be with their family during this weekend.

2 days back, i had a chat with a very good friend (I know you're reading this), and she shared a piece of wonderful news with me....She got into the educational psych graduate program in Birmingham, UK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Oh my, I'm really happy and excited for her...Being friends since our Honours year, we're worked so hard and have graduated together....now, after so many years, we're always reaching our dreams!!! We never gave up, constantly searching our inner self and asking ourselves what we want and fought hard to achieve it...now, we're finally touching a bit of our dreams and in time to come, we'll get it!! Really PW, i'm soooooo happy for you! You've no idea how happy i was when you broke the news to me...it's just how you screamed in my ears when you heard that i've gotten into the DPsych program...hehe...But UK is so far away, and even if i want to visit you, it's soooooooooooooooo far!!!!! Promise me that we'll keep in touch when you're there k???

So Easter Sunday is all about resurrection and re-birth, so i guess both of us are living a new life now....I hope that my rebirth this Easter will make me a better person and never give up in believing what i've always believed. Greg and Yee Min have invited me to their friends' place for Easter dinner on Sunday, and i'm really looking forward to it...I know i've not made any friends since i came here, but i really thank God for bring them here....

Happy Easter my friends!!!!!!
