恭祝你福寿与天齐，庆贺你生辰快乐，年年都有今日，岁岁都有今朝，恭喜你~恭喜你~~~
That's right, somebody is turning 26 today. Officially. Eventually. Perhaps his birthday has brightened up my day. That's why my day went smoothly from the first second I opened my eyes. I could feel a beam of light coming from the corner of the window, straight spread over my blanket and keeping me warm. I felt the energetic me is somewhat revived, even in the really early morning today like 6:30ish am, I was still having this studious mode doing my Jap composition within an hour. But I wasn't planning to have breakie, so she cook me some pancakes for me to have them on my way to Central.
As soon as I got on my train, reached Beverley hills stop, all in a sudden my named was called by someone whom sitting at the front. I lifted up my head and found that was my little brother Eric Kung. I haven't seen this guy for ages, the last time I saw him was when we both were waiting for the train at the platform. After a few seconds of being surprised for seeing him here, he moved to sit next to me. Somebody suited up for his full time job today, that's all I know. Though personally speaking, I prefer another abc brother of mine-Corey, who gives me this good and comfortable feeling when we chat. Eric isn't the one being modest when he talks. Everything he said, such as his uni life, full time job, friendship, high school memories etc were somehow giving me a sense of pride, the typical abc pride. I understand how much dignity he wanted to show from his life experiences, including how busy he has become, and leading to how lack of time he has with his friends and family. But I think one should be knowing how to enjoy life other than work. Working is surely an important part to make up a good life, as in an ultimate goal that lies upon almost everything. It should be prioritized, and to be seen differently. But for me, if this has taken all the happiness away from having a pleasant life, what else we have left here?
I truly think that this 19-year-old can understand this clearly. When one's young, one should treasure the rare chances to be happy for the time being...
Apart from having this short catch up with my brother, there was also something special in my Japanese seminar today. We had 5 Japanese guests coming today. 20 minutes before they came, everyone was busy preparing for all the questions we would ask them. I quickly wrote down 10 questions. Others also wrote down a few but some of theirs were way to simple, and hard to make the conversation work in my opinion. The ones with a yes or no answer would be the conversation killer because all we want to do, simply saying, is to make them talk more...My group mate Dominic, the only guy at our table, was chosen to be the leader in our group. There was only one reason we had him as our leader was that he IS the only guy at our group. I don't blame him for calling us sexist LOL...Because we really were >.> In that critical moment when we were having trouble making someone to lead our group lol....
I didn't know he would be that focused on his interest, even when asking questions...Throughout the whole time we talked to the guests, our group was deadly quiet at times. I mean, the guests are actually talkative, at least the first two guests we had were both keen on answering every single question. Though admittedly they got us full of questions marks not knowing what they were talking about sometimes, they would try their best to explain what something is to us, either by drawing or using hand gestures. Our group leader-Dominic, my interaction partner, really is a gaming, anime, manga fan. I bet that his life only revolves around these three things. =3= Awkward that this girl guest told him that she didn't like gaming, and had no idea what anime he was talking about>.> There was quite a few times when everyone else got nothing to say, we all lowered our heads trying so hard to think of something to ask, because we didn't want to make ourselves embarrassed when having this eye contact with someone that we are unable to communicate with them in their language >.> My group mates encouraged me to ask more, they even looked at me when the dead silence appeared, as if they were hinting me to take the lead...
The last guest somehow liked to talk to me more. Towards the end of the seminar, she was left there and asking me why I wanted to go to Japan etc. That pain of not being able to make up something I wanted to express got me so easily. =3=....oh god....awesome to the max....my shifty look emerged thereafter...
Coming back to the library to continue with my Jap composition, I didn't realise there is no Jap language input on school computers til I turned on one of the computers there. I quickly told Tao to bring his laptop for this...Just for this, just for me...Yes I felt bad for being so forgetful all the time>.> Birthday boy finally came to the library. His new haircut in fact looks so fly which he made it sound so bad the night before>.> This person just wanted to surprise me to the utmost...
I used his laptop to do my Japanese composition afterwards. I had been having this uncertainty not knowing which particle to put in my conclusion, so I asked this person for help who isn't even studying Japanese...After almost an hour and a half struggling with my composition, I finally got it done at 12:30ish.
As soon as I got everything done, we headed to his lab to get my printout. As you know how forgetful I am, if somebody didn't remind me of my printout, I would have forgotten totally...=3= Soon we got on the bus having such an awesome talk about my video making, Jap seminar, forming hell lots of connection and having decent amount of happiness through the entire trip. Soon we arrived to St James where we walked from the other direction, the one that I wasn't familiarize with. Walking through the night market where I claimed myself as shortie, an excuse of not being able to see something further. He then laughed at how unlogical thinking I have there, as if being short is the one and only reason for any problems occurred. But you know what, starvation is indeed the problem before any other problems emerged, like, knowing full well that my randomness is induced by this. Without being hungry, I wouldn't send myself into this hysterical zone saying something that's not even fitted into the context...
But hello, St James train station, westfield, the luxurious stores all across both sides of the streets, fast-paced working environment and all, plus our glorious food court where we both were already close to zombified, especially me who was gradually losing this sense of knowing what logic means. The only feeling I had that time was craving for food, as long as it's food, any food could revive me. I just didn't care what it really is. Imagine if this is how we see survival as a game, being abandoned in a remote place, say, desert, where we have to seek for the water source, food for supporting our body needs. That, was exactly how I felt. But lucky it was just one of those experiences having a delayed lunch time here, I couldn't, and wouldn't want to think of what it would be like if I ever have to experience some scenes like what I just mentioned. Perhaps Japanese restaurant was really an Asian thing. We eventually went for this Jap restaurant that I had passed for so many times whenever I go to St James. Shame on my forgetfulness once again, I just realised that I forgot to bring money today when we started looking at the menu. =3= boooooo....surprise...really a big surprise...
I love to try new food so I ordered this salmon tofu nuggets and chicken noodles(some unknown name in Japanese that I cannot recall). Tao ordered this pork noodles for his own later on. To his generosity, he shared some of his to me. I joked about having all the five nuggets right after he said he was going to have one out of the five only. And he taught me the typical way to show respect to the chef in a Japanese restaurant is to suck the noodles as loud as possible. But I told him how my mum think that is like having hogwash>.>
Next, we headed to St James, a place where brought us together. Remember the first time we held hands at the platform at St James a month ago? How can you not feel something after that happened...Unfortunately we missed the ferry by the time we arrived there, so we had to wait for another half an hour for the next one. Within that half an hour of waiting, we walked to somewhere to take couple photos together. At first, he wanted to take photos of me from afar, but I thought that taking selfies together would be better due to my shyness at that moment lol>.> We swapped to so many angles, adjusted our standing position and ensured that we wouldn't block the opera house appear at the background in the photos. There were times, like other times which we weren't satisfied with the ones we took, and there were some other times we eager to take some even better ones.
Going back to the wharf in the last 5 minutes before the ferry came. We found a spot where we could have a nice view of the harbour bridge and opera house. I found that another big mistake I made today was that I forgot to charge my portable charger. *Facepalm* Looking at how less battery I had left, with an unusable portable charger holding in my hand, my guilt of being super forgetful has escalated one more level...
Once again, we picked a good seat on board, where we had a mini bet which end of the ferry is the front. I confidently said that the ferry would do a U turn lol and I won...I was hoping the bet was not a small one, but something 'valuable' lmaooo xD Tao and I were sitting in the corner having our mini studying session learning English together. Some words I taught him such as ferries wheel and fairy floss. In case he forgets later, he noted them down. Also, I found this guy so adorably stubborn. xD Reason why I said this is that as though it was a must for him to turn something simple into an academic sense. Oh and we have decided to record an English song together too :3 AND thanks for complimenting my voice...Believe it or not, someone said I sang so well >3< booooo...>.>
Cockatoo Island was full of fun. I've heard of people saying there is this former prison where it's located at an island, but I just didn't it's renamed as Cockatoo Island lol...Firstly, Tao and I chose to go for the camping place where all the tents are situated across the whole area. Each of them is around the same size, or even larger than a King-sized bed. That is where he taught this noob how to properly use the camera, the adjustable settings that most of the camera users are supposed to know. He also taught me the techniques I asked him to teach me much earlier. To capture the moving objects such as people walking and jumping, firework etc is something I wanted to learn. Around half an hour or so lesson taught by my owner, I felt lucky to have such a patient one teaching me things I don't know. I tried to experiment it for some time by capturing his jumping movements, as well as the plants around me along with his further explanation. Of course, I still need hell lots of practice to master the skill in photo taking, if only there is a camera for me to practice lol>.> Thanks for giving me this great chance. I mean, camera is more of a sacred possession for me to carry around lol I don't hope my clumsiness once damage it or some sort, so I asked him to carry it back haha >.>
Alright, photo taking experimenting is worth a try, it was time for us to explore the place. We first walked up to this dodgy eerie place made of bricks. It got me goosebumps once I was approaching it. It reminds me of the scenes we normally see from horror games, like, zombie killing. A chilly feeling was given by the first sight of darkness. Whether it was caused by my imagination, or some sorts of shadow from watching too many horror movies in the past, my body was stiffened within a second. Tao tried to convince me to go a few steps further to see what was inside, while he was at the back freaked me out a bit...=3= I wasn't sure how often he took photos of me walking, all I know is that this photographer is really into stalking wherever I go lol jks... I still remember this block where there are metal hooks hanging on the wall, Tao said those were for clothes hanging, whereas I thought they were for weapons hanging...I guess he was right, prisoners did have given good service here lol (as if>.>) Anyways I was closely tripped over for twice. Without holding his arm tight, I would have gained new bruises on my knees.
I bet that having these girly poses pretending that I was feeling the nature by smelling the fragrance of flowers really isn't my thing....I instantly went shifty if someone holding the camera right at my face for too long...>.> Oh right, we even imagined there will be one day we would take an adventure here at night, since this seems like a nice place that full of 'dangers'...
Not to mention our short break (lasting for half an hour approximately) was not short at all lol...How passionate it was by exchanging decent amount of saliva, if you get what I mean...Countless times of kisses provided by this long kisser who wouldn't let go of my lips because they are duhhhh damn sexy ;) lmao...(gay-ish much here...forgive me....sorry...) Tao must be hating me as I hurt his beautiful tall nose by squeezing those blackheads out. His nose was reddened afterwards....BUT this is still a part of memories isn't it >.>
Side story-how we were asked to take some photos for those two women. Tao helped them out with his sophisticated photo taking skill...
Under the brightness, I had this idea of taking that kind of photos which I held his hand at the front with a small part showing his hand in the corner. That is one of the newest trends in taking couple photos these days. However, I wasn't doing a great job showing my pretty side face. I wish I was serious enough for this, but I couldn't help to make fun of myself doing this pose somehow. I clearly knew how ugly my face looks in the ones captured at a bad timing. T^T... All the good looking ones are those without my face which was taken when I did some kicking and jumping while strutting.
The best moment was when we moved to the big lawn adjacent to the wharf, where I started with this pose called 'a great hawk spreads its wings' to impress this photographer. Look, this girl is madly crazy that nobody could ever stop her wildness. Then we had our epic time taking kissing photos. He finally remembered to take out the tripod and placed it a few meters away from where we stood. The camera was ready, we were ready, 10 seconds countdown til either he or I rushed to where the other stood. To get the best kissing pictures out of the many, we tried different angles to achieve the best result. I've never kissed a person for that many times for the day in the purpose of photo taking to be honest, but it was so fun doing this with my owner. Everytime when our lips touched, and hugging to the tightest, our burning passion will be robust...
On our way back to Circular Quay, we were on the ferry checking and deleting photos. Too much fun laughing at those shifty eyes photos, and some of them even made me say 'ewwwww'...>.> But some cute photos would make me go bragging about my adorableness...
Towards the end of our one-day trip, we went to this Thai tuck shop to have our dinner. Tao said he liked my smile and my little smirk, just as much as I like his. Once again, he took out his phone and took some pictures of my face after we both finished our meals. You would see this girl (me) as a cutie pie.. (narcissistic much...>.>) I ain't going to lie to you...but sorry that I won't show all these in here, in the public because all the good things should be kept privately hehe...
I admit that I'm a bit retarded sometimes, just like I would see 'intellectual disability' can also be appeared to parrot......No...I am definitely joking...At least we both had a good laugh at how silly I was...I had this urge to look for a place to hide right after I said such a thing though...=3= Oh btw I love that tight hugs at the end :3
Happy birthday to our birthday boy again....Hope you have enjoyed the day as much as I have....cheers....
