Cars And Certificates


Just went to Expo for automobiles exhibition. The place is crowded but very dissappointing because the nicest car i could find was MAZda RX8 only man :(

Sadly i board a train home straight. ok enough of sad stuffs i have something else to say.



After years of torturing myself in university, this is what i eventually got in return. This is my dad's greatest ever investement which generates negative return. Dad is a risk adverse investor but he had thrown out over a hundred thousands for me simply because he just loves me unconditionally.








For cost saving purpose, i did a twinning program with Taylor's College and went to Sydney to get my final year completed. As soon as i completed by under-grad, i felt like, yes i felt like taking masters to apply for a permanet residency in Australia thus i asked for dad's permission. Both two semesters in under-grad costed like AUD 18,000 and another two semesters for AUD 20,000.




Education is extremely commercialised worldwide, except some countries still provide free education to foreigners like France or Germany if i am not mistaken. If time could reverse, i might choose a cheapskate university to study instead. Anyway if i try to think optimistically, i am very grateful that i have a chance to live in Sydney for a freaking 2 years to gain some life experiences, going through a very poor life-style stocking instant noodles that i never feel that delicious before. I learned how to cook simple dishes such as soup noodles, porridge to fill my tummy. I learned to only spend $5 per week on fruits, veges, meat and groceries. I learned how to steal breads from my workplace and stored them in my fridge for breakfast. I am so stingy afterall.
