closing the book for semester 1

Hey guys. How is it going in malaysia? Hope everyone's doing fine though i heard mum say the weather in malaysia is ridiculous. Anyway, today im finally closing the chapter 1 of my new college life. Its the end of semester one and i had my final exam today on Management.

The paper was surprisingly comfortable for me, maybe because of the late nights i've been spending for the past week. Sometimes i do wonder, if this is Adrian.. ? Those people that knows me should know that i never touch books, especially those with lots of wordings in it. I am just not the book worm you would imagine.

But lately, i seem to read more books, well mostly on my course of course! Management books, Trends n Innovations of the Hospitality Industry, Food n Beverage Knowledge, Culture n Cuisines of the world. So much to read yet so little time. But, overall i did enjoy all of it.

Semester one was very interesting, unfortunately its already the end of it.

Through out the whole 4 months, i've met numerous people. Interesting friends, and good buddies. Conan, Kerrie, Anh .. if you guys are reading this , you guys are one of the best friends i've met in Melbourne and i really really do appreciate all the effort you guys put into helping me whenever i'm in need of aid. Thank you so much .. !!

Well last but not least .. i'll be heading back to Penang soon for holidays !!!! So excited !! Will not tell you guys when, gonna pay you guys a surprise visit.. ehhez.

anyways, cheers folks. thank you for being with me for the past months n thank you for reading my blog. the more people read it, the more motivated i am to write more.

god bless me please..

Exams are just around the corner and i am burning late night lamps studyin n studyin hoping to do well for this final exam ..

GOD

please help me

bless me with good memory and some luck in the exams

listening to : Om Mani Padme Hum by Ging,Ya Ging to ease my mind, clarify my thoughts and concentrate on the pile of notes in front of me now..

there can be miracle, when you believe

Many nights we've prayed

With no proof anyone could hear

In our hearts a hopefull song

We barely understood

Now we are not afraid

Although we know there's much to fear

We were moving mountains long

Before we knew we could

There can be miracles, when you believe

Though hope is frail, it's hard to kill

Who knows what miracles you can achieve

When you believe, somehow you will

You will when you believe

In this time of fear

When prayers so often prove in vain

Hope seems like the summer birds

Too swiftly flown away

Yet now I'm standing here

My heart's so full I can't explain

Seeking faith and speaking words

I never thought I'd say

There can be miracles, when you believe

Though hope is frail, it's hard to kill

Who knows what miracles you can achieve

When you believe, somehow you will

You will when you believe

They don't always happen when you ask

And it's easy to give in to your fears

But when you're blinded by your pain

Can't see your way straight throught the rain

A small but still resilient voice

Says hope is very near

After months of hard work, late nights

Piles of assignments

It's finally over

1st semester :)

i think i deserve a day to indulge myself

maybe could grab a cold beer or two ;)

But after all the fun, all the break ..

it all starts again in 2 weeks !!

!Final Exams!

bad weather

Very Bad Weather

The skies darkened and menaced

I laid in my bed and enjoyed

The sounds of nature's rage

Crashing outside my window

The lights flickered and dimmed

I pulled the comforter up closer to my neck

Winds rattled my window pane

The rain drops fell heavily

The sounds of life and death waged outside

I kept myself warm and smiled

My home comforts me in the dark

Deep night strains at the walls

Weather makes us weak

I am sheltered by my ignorance
