Memories

While editing my past blog entries due to some format problem between Live Spaces and Blogspot, I read some of the blog entries I made a few years ago. Some are funny, some are sad, and some feels foreign to me. Especially those about my life in SISPEC, I cannot recall those things I did which I wrote about. It is weird because those are the things which I did. I think I am really a person with very short term memory and always forget things I did in the past.

It is a pain because when people talk to me about the things we did in the past, I may recall or may not even recall anything, I cannot follow what they are talking about. I think you know what I mean.

I also have a bad memory in remembering people who I did not meet for a long time. Not just acquaintances, but people who I worked with, even for 2 or 3 years.

How I wish I have a photographic memory. But it is good that I am what I am now. At least I can, once in a while, read through my past blog entries and revisit what I did and miss. It is good that I kept my blog running.

Also, apart from memories, I think I have a huge gap that is missing in this blog between the day I came to Tasmania and today. There are so many things that happened apart from the holidays and school work. I have not been writing about my personal life since then. I do not wish to write any of it and I am leading a very happy and exciting life. School days is coming close to an end in about 3 months time before graduation. Just to let everyone know that I will only be back to Singapore next year end of January. I hope I will be able to find a job in Australia. If not, I will have to go back to the hectic 24hours lifestyle in Singapore.

Migration to Blogspot

Hi all, I have migrated all of my previous blog entries over to blogspot. It is a pity that I cannot migrate the comments.

My new blog address is http://yokechye.blogspot.com

I will no longer be updating on this blog. I hope I have made the right decision after using Live Spaces for almost 5 years. Sentimental to leave here, but hope for the better as I felt that there are quite a bit of limitation to using html and css over here.

See you guys on the other side!

Live to Blogger

OK folks, I have imported all my Windows Live Spaces blog entries into blogger. Thanks to Zhuotong Nan's shared space, I have managed to get all my post imported into here. It is a pity that comments are not exported.

The next thing that I have to do is to work on this blog's html.

Hossan Leong!

Hossan Leong came to Hobart! I “pontang” tute on Thursday just to go Hobart to meet him in person. Actually it is part of the Singapore Buzz organised by Overseas Singaporean, Canberra. Hobart is his first stop. He headed to Brisbane the next day and I think he should be back in Singapore sleeping.

I brought my camera along but I forgot to bring my CF card! So sad. Lucky Jonathan had a camera and helped me took a picture with Hossan.



As usual, the moment he opened his mouth on stage, we started to laugh. He’s jokes are forever humorous. I cannot forget his airplane jokes about British Airways, Qantas, Singapore Airlines, United Airlines, China Airlines, etc. I can’t stop laughing.

Another surprise guest is Dr Lily Neo, one of the Minster of Parliament of Singapore. She is visiting his son, Alvin Neo, who is studying medicine in UTas. Oh my, the house of doctors. Mother’s a doctor, Father’s a Doctor, Sister studying medicine in Singapore, and he is studying medicine here. After talking to him, he isn’t that proud at all, a very humble person. Funny when Jonathan told us that he did not realise that the aunty he kept addressing to is a MP when they met in church.

It was a fun night. Thanks to Jonathan for allowing us to sleep over at his place again. If not I will have to drive back again at midnight.

The next day, we went to the Island Market in Moonah to get some chicken meat for the house. It’s cheaper there and after all it’s along the way home. We also went to catch a movie, Up, at Eastlands. Up is a very touching and funny show and I highly recommend it to anyone.



On the way back to Launceston, I saw cockatoos along the highway again! There are flocks of them! I think in hundreds! Why did I forget to bring my CF card?! Oh well…
