Chaos

At a train station, Sydney, 10/7/08

The things in the world are constantly changing at the pace that I can never be comfortable with.

God is the only source of courage and stability amongst all other variables.

I shall not resist changes, nor shall I feel faint at the sight of the trials and mountains, for God has birthed the spirit of power in me, and I take pleasure in climbing the mountains until I reach the top of the world.

Do not fret.

Take heart. The train is the only variable that moves. Not the station, not the platform. The train comes, but it will go away. The next train will come too, and will it not go away very quickly just like the first one?

Family time

No matter how proud I am of Adelaide, I'd hv to admit that Sydney is great.

This is a hard-earned break. Sis is here, and mom came to join us too. Not doing much at all, not even shopping (for i've finally grown sick of it now)...just some siew wai time, some family time, some photography time....

It's very refreshing to shoot in a foreign place...now i believe, a photographer does need to travel.

Enjoy the photos...click http://www.siewwai.zenfolio.com/ =)

Come to my PLAYGROUND....

stupid car! just venting

This morning I left home for gym. A stupid junk car was parked right in front of my garage. Fine, since I was walking to the gym, I thought the owner'd better move the car before I come home again.


So I came back from the gym. Still there. I thought, ok, he'd better move the car by 2:20pm. I need to go to work.


Then at 2:30pm, the car was still there. Knocked the neighbours doors, no one claimed the car theirs. Then 2:40pm..this is not funny, I started getting quite mad. I'm gonna be terribly late for work! plus I would miss the teaching session!


I suspected it belongs to the neighbour just directly opp of my house, I've seen this car before. Pressed the doorbell, no response. From gentle knock knock knock...to banging the door like a mad woman, I've tried it all.


I stood there for 40 mins altogether. Thank God, my neighbour came home, said that car didnt belong to him or his household.


What happened at the end...we broke into the car, pushed down the hand brake, pushed the car aside....and I left my fingerprints all over the car! If it was a stolen car (it looks like one) the police would ring Dr SWW who works in Elizabeth.


My colleague thought it was a veyr creative excuse for being late for work and he'd use it for the next two weeks...:)


I wanna move! Cant stand the car park issue no more!

leisure

What more can I ask for? A cosy quiet corner in my favourite cafe. Beautiful music and coffee. Fingers flying on the very-nice-to-touch keypad , and, uploading my photos.




This is my sw time. Having a weekday off is much more fun than the usual weekend off. The cafes are quiet while the streets are crowded with ppl dressed in business suits, with large black folders or briefcases in their hands, pace quickly from one place to another, esp at lunch hour.




As for me, no suits, nor a briefcase, nor heels. No hurry.
Just my jumper and jeans and sneakers, a huge overnight bag, laptop, book, journal and camera (of course, camera).




What a good morning in autumn. Good morning , Adelaide :)
