最近很多人第一句问候就是：＂工作还好？＂。

＂我是该用长的句子来回答？还是很敷衍的回答？＂我每次想了想，都还是回答了：＂嗯，还好。＂

也许这是一个聊天的开始吧。。。

我并非不想回答，而它需要很长的时间来了解。

不知何时，我又开始语无论次了。。。

悠闲星期天，可以慢慢的享受咖啡，真好。

看了世界杯出乎意料的成绩，证实无常的存在。虽然心情有稍微的波动，但不至于现场的球迷那样。亚洲人就是能控制自己的情绪。

終于找到方法输入华文进来，好开心。也发现自己很久没有上来打打字，间中搀杂了很多原因。一年没有好好的写信，没有好好的画些什么。就连几米的书也很久没有翻阅了。

原来工作会使人忙碌，会使人没有力量。朝八晚五的工作原来也未必是好，但也未必坏。双子座的我就是不能重复做同样的事太久。

I have been back to Malaysia around 3 weeks. I start missing the weather in California, it was not too chilly and not too warm. It was about 18-27 C. The sweater that I bought in New York, it is useless now… maybe it will be used when I wanna go to Genting Highland or Camera Highland.

Finally, I graduated officially and I got my cert and transcript. What is the feeling? I feel nothing, It just a paper. That will be a long journey for me to go and a lot of obstacles for me to comeover. Anyway, Live here and now. That’s what I learnt from Buddha.

The convocation was crowded and the weather was good that day (luckily) but it was too warm for me. I just took some photos and I can’t smile anymore…then I decide to go back and eat (after a light breakfast since 6 am till 1pm).

finally…finally….I graduated.

The first day I in the camp, the weather was so cold for me. I regret that I didn’t do any homework before I came here cuz I didn’t bring any good sweater to here. I thought California is a state which is warm… but I was wrong. They told me that the weather will become warmmer around mid of july. I kept drnking hot drink and jumping all the time…haha… but it didn’t work. =( Luckily… I met a nice girl (Kara). She borrow me her sweater and she even brought to me her mum’s sweater from Hawaii. It was so touching and I really appreciate. wanna cry some more…

After 3 days in NY, I love to travel Solo.. cuz I can go whenever I want and I can spent however I like. That’s do cool!!! I went to statue of liberty, Empire State Building,  Chinatown, Time Square, Metropolitan Museum and some Museums… I remember that day I went to Union Square and that night I went for a movie "Madagascar" with some friends. All the scene that they drawed was based on New York and it was so real to me.

Cool!!! That’s what I heard from every sentence that Americans speak… not …specific for New Yorker. Start from 23rd May and arrive in NY also 23rd May… Amazing right? We arrived at the JFK airport around 9.30pm and we (4 of us) spent a cold night in one of the terminal. Me? slept with only 1 blanket that I took from plane (cuz I didn’t bring any sleeping bag) That’s worsen my sickness… fever, cold, dizzy … anyway.. I can’t even sleep in that cold stone bench because of my biological clock and my sickness. The next morning, we go to the hotel by Shuttle with everyone USD 17 (actually is 20 cuz we need to plus tax and TIPS). The first day in Orientation, I spend my day in Emergency Room for 7 hours, cuz they send me to check up, afraid that I will bring any SARS to them, cuz they didn’t give me any Tylenol to reduce my temperature but check all my blood to make sure that I am alright (no Sars). I fall sick for about 3 days….=(

This is the first time I travel to USA, I experienced a 25 hours flight and 4 transits…. that’s the most terrible experienced for me in the flight and I told myself… no more XX airline again in my life. I fall sick in the plane, all I can drink is only water, water and water… A lot of meals in the plane… its about 6 meals in 25 hours!!! Crape!!!
