Work Hard Bro!

Now is holiday for me so my uncle arranged me to work more in the restaurant. From now on i will be working Monday to Wednesday in Mikazuki (Cockburn Gateway) and Thursday to Friday in Edo Teppan (Garden City). Working in Mikazuki is still not bad although there are alot of work to do but i at least still have people to chat with me but working in Edo Teppan is quite suffering to me although the working load is a little bit easy. The working style in Edo Teppan is about teamwork but there still alot of things i not very sure. I just started working there so is abit hard but anyways starting from next week i wont be working there anymore hehehe.

Today is a hard work day as there are many work need to be done. Although they are quite teamwork but since i knew quite alot of things so they will "make used" of me to help them in the restaurant. I need to do from frying food to serving food, from serving food to food preparation, from food preparation to cleaning. There are too much things that waiting for me and i really feel tired about that. Working in the restaurant really not an easy job and the pay is not that high too. But what can do? Life still need to keep on going as in Australia, you don't have money if you don't work. So i will just take it as an experience that i learn while staying in Australia. At least i learnt something new for me.

As for the economic down turn, there are alot of people jobless and a lot of companies recession. So i should be glad that i still have a part time job that can keep me survive hehehe. So in this long summer holiday i will try my very best to work as much as i can so that i can save enough money to go visit and hopefully can save some to go back home. Just now my friend just told me that there is a company that want a designer and ask me to call them up to have a try. I just hope that i can faster finish up my portfolio and be prepared to go for interview. Anyway, life still need to keep on going as there is no easy way out. Everything need to pay for the price. So...work hard bro~

Holiday+ing

Whoow~ feel that just come Australia and now studied was over. It's holiday again haha and this summer holiday will last for around 3 months until the next year. Ever since i come here i don't have much time to go visit around so this is the best time for me to visit all the place that nearby. I just looked back on those travel brochures that i have and i found that there are few place that gain my interest to go such as the Swan Bells, The Army Museum of Western Australia, Yanchep National Park, Fremantle Prison, Whiteman Park, Swan Valley, Rottnest Island, Penguin Islan..etc etc. Some places are entry free and some need to pay but is a small amount so i still can afford. I plan to go do photography while having vacation. This is the time for me as i am here now.

In Perth, Australia there are alot of nice places that are worth to visit especially in down South. Place such as Margerat River is a example that you can see alot of greenery and natural scene. Margerat River also a place where they have grape yard and they produce nice wine there. It is good for those people that have been living in a busy city for long time so that they can relax their mind and get some fresh air.I think it will be a different experience.

Planning is still a planning. Without enough cash, i also cant have a fun and happy trip so for 1st i will try to work for more hours so that i can get to save more for my trip fund hahaha. Vacation in Australia is not cheap too but need to think of a cheapest way to go travel. I got some informations from my classmate that been there before and they said that in order to go in a cheap way is to go backpack. There will be alot of backpackers hotel to stay in and it don't cost that much. For me i think that that doesn't bother me as long i got a place to sleep haha. Hmm.. I think also time to get more information and get those things ready so that the trip will be fulfill. I still start my holiday trip from the nearest place. See you all in the next blog then. Cheers~

Grad Exhibition

This Grad Exhibition was held in 13 Nov 08 and this Grad Exhibition was for the 3rd year graduates from design departments. The title was named as "Creative Juices 08" and it was a function to let graduates have a chance to meet the industrial people and hope the industrial people can get some fresh meat in this function. The Uni will invite as many industrial people as they can so that hope that the graduates have the chance to get a job after they graduate.

In this Grad Exhibition, we will need to come out a promotional banner, a business card design and a portfolio design. This will come out as a set of promotion items and the guests can look on the works of the graduate. The Uni also designed a publication for industrial people and graduates to take away. The publication is named "Assorted Volume II". This publication is about promotion as well. Each graduate will get 2 pages to put in their artworks to advertise themselves . This is also a way to show what skills that they can do.

So, in the nex blog i will bring you all to the nite of the Grad Exhibition Creative Juices 08.

WHAT A LUCKY DAY

I was so happy today and today can consider as my very lucky day. Today just in time i get to finish my assignment that due at 12.30pm and i get to be in class to have group discussion and get feedback. Although i might not done it very good but i had tried my very best. After the 2 hours class then i went to library to continue doing my another assignment for visual communication practice. We suppose to show semi final concept to get feedback in the 4pm class but i only get to finish up rough sketches and some concept ideas. Anyway i just hope that luck will side on me and let me pass. In that class not much classmate attend and not much of them have much work to show haha so i think i can considered as lucky because there still have more people that accompany me. The tutor cant do anything but just asked us to make sure have more work to show on the next class and if not she will double deduct our marks. Lucky~ Lucky~ So lucky i stayed until the class end and so lucky my classmate Bim send me back home. While walking to her car we have a chit chat about our assignments and what we should do. My luck is not tat bad today. While walking and chit-chatting, i saw a 5bucks note on the floor. Immediately i pick it up and told my friend Bim. This is a lucky day for me.

I reached home around 5.45pm. As usual i will change my shirts and later on sit infront the laptop and start MSN. As i had said today is a lucky day for me. I heard a good news from my primary friend Lim Teck. I bet this good news is also a good news to all my primary classmate. The good news is he said he had found our another classmate>>Vong Poh Chin which lost contact with us after graduate. We have been looking for her for quite a long time but nobody knows where she go or what she is doing. This was pity because our relationship with her during primary time was not that good. As you all know that small kids will always have their own favorite gang to mix around with so i think we all should be forgiven, heehee. Ya, so this is the most happiest thing for me and yet it is really a very good news for me today. Lucky~

I really hope that there will be another primary friend>>Yu Ting will go and confirm that she is the girl that we looking for as Lim Teck don't dare to approach to her hahaha. Anyway he had already done a very good job for the class union. I decided to make hima trophy and present to him in the next gathering and i bet that will be the ceremony for him haha. Really hope to look forward on it and hope we all really have the fate to meet again. Gambate my fellow classmates. Lucky~
