| It's Australia Day again.
I feel very sentimental every time I hear the Qantas's 'I still Call Australia home' song. And today I heard it again at the Australian Open, I could feel my goosebumps and tears rolling down my eyes. Silly hey! Being born and growing up in Hong Kong, but i have never felt like this for Hong Kong. This is so weird. Maybe this is the place for me to be.  Or maybe the AD agency for Qantas did a exceptional job. (wink wink)
Here is the lyrics for 'I still call Australia home';
I’ve been to cities that never close down
from New York to Rome and old London town,
but no matter how far or how wide I roam
I still call Australia home.
I’m always traveling, I love being free,
and so I keep leaving the sun and the sea,
but my heart lies waiting over the foam.
I still call Australia home.
All the sons and daughters spinning ’round the world,
away from their family and friends,
but as the world gets older and colder,
it’s good to know where your journey ends.
But someday we’ll all be together once more
when all of the ships come back to the shore.
Then I realise something I’ve always known.
I still call Australia home.

| Two more days and I will be back to Sydney again! I am a bit home sick. I have shopped out and I am sick of American burgers, iced tea, ribs and chips.
Went to Universal Studio today. We didn't get there until 11.30. Luckily, there were not a lot of people in the park and the maximum queue time was only 30 minutes. We managed to do most of the rides except for the Water World. Oh well, I will do that next time when I go back.
The plan was to go to Disneyland tomorrow, but since my last disappointing experience at the DisneyWorld, I think I would rather explore Downtown all by myself. So I will be sleeping in, enjoy my breakfast at Beverly Hills and then bus to Downtown tomorrow.
For some reason, I am looking forward to my all by myself getting lost in LA.

| People, we should stop lying to ourselves.
I am fed up with it.
I am not putting up with any of this anymore.

| I can't believe I have been in DA for 4 years already! Time does fly, especially in last year. It's been so fun travelling around the Asia developing a new business.
I have changed a lot in the past 4 years. Working has made me mature and I have learnt to take control of the situation. Most importantly, I have learnt to speak up and say NO in appropriate time. Really have to thank my mentor for that!
It's Sunday, no actually Monday morning at 12.17. I can finally spend some time on my own thinking about what my plan is for the next 3 weeks. I have to plan for my trip to US in 2 weeks time. YAY!!! I am going to Las Vegas, San Francsico (just for 6 hour transit though) and Los Angeles. There are so much to do in Las Vegas and the Mandalay Bay Resort that we are staying looks really nice. I am sure Julie-Anne and I will have a good time there.
I am also really excited about the conference. This time, I am going to bring back a lot of interesting business ideas. Now that I am doing more and more business development work, I can feel I am getting closer and closer to the big picture - the real world. (I have been nurturing in the green house in the past 4 years!!!) Maybe it's time to leave the nest and fly with my own wings.
EXCITED!!! | | |
| I can't believe I would login the Subaru website and check out their car models. I am starting to understand why guys like cars.
