10:38 pm	In Australia We are in Australia now. The flight wasn't smooth. My parents didn't feel so well after eating the ice bar. Hiu Tsun couldn't sleep at first so she was a bit moody. I can't sleep much as well. When it was ready to land, my ears were super pain! >< It is my first time to have this painful experience. Hiu Tsun didn't feel too well at last because she also ate the ice bar. We could see my sister and her husband quickly. They told us a bad news : Peter's car's window was broken because a thief tried to steal somethings! So unlucky! We didn't do much. Just had lunch in a food court and had a fast window shopping. As I expected, I couldn't buy anything. The quality of the clothes and shoes weren't that good in my mind. Then, Hiu Tsun, my father and Michael had a nap. Peter and I played Wii at home. Afterward, we had dinner with Peter's parents. While I couldn't sleep much in the plane, I believe I can sleep very well tonight. We will stay at the resort in Sydney since tomorrow. Thus, I can't access online to update my entry here then. Current Mood: sleepy (Comment on this)

9:58 am	Australia, I am coming! So exciting! We will go to the airport tonight. I finished teaching 2 students in the early morning. 2 students cancelled the lesson for their visa. It is fine for me this time while i have more time to prepare everything. Let's hope the weather there would be better than imagined. Keep your fingers crossed for me! I might not be here everyday. But I will try to update when I have the chances! :) Current Mood: excited (Comment on this)

10:27 am	late lesson My student called me last night and said she couldn't reach home as early as planned. :( So, the lesson should be started much later. :( I don't really like that as her home is very far away. But, while I can't have lessons with her next week, I should avoid skipping lessons for her. The weather seems to be bad in AU next week. Wish us luck please! Current Mood: moody (Comment on this)

9:53 am	cool in AU? My sister told me it was hot in AU last week as it was over 40C!! So, I expected it would be still hot when we are in AU and have packed the summer clothes in the suitcase. Now, we all find out that it will be around 17-21C next week! It would be cool for me and I must wear long sleeves instead of tank tops. I guess I Should choose other clothes to put in the suitcase then... well.. at least I know it now so I could prepare some warmer clothes from here. Shopping in AU would be too expensive for me.

9:54 am	glasses frame Hiu Tsun hit my glasses by accident last night. So, my glasses frame isn't in a correct position. I really hate that! >< I hope the glasses shop will not be closed today so I can get it fixed as soon as possible. It is impossible for me to live without glasses. :( Michael goes to China today.

9:52 am	warmer The weather is warmer. It will be above 20C in the afternoon. :) but I will teach till late evening so I still need to wear enough clothes when I go out. My father will go back to his company today. Maybe he will miss his working life then? Current Mood: okay (Comment on this)

9:49 pm	travel insurance and visa I taught piano in the cold morning. Even I wore 4 clothes, it seems not yet enough for me. One of my students was serious ill so she couldn't have the lesson in the afternoon. Then, I can have the whole afternoon with Michael and Hiu Tsun. First, we bought the travel insurance. Then, we bought a toy, a pair of boots (for her X'mas performance) and a cap. I love some socks but I didn't buy them yet. Should I go back later? :) We still need to help her looking for a red coat for the performance. It is not easy to find everything for her in a short time. As it is cold, my mother prepared hot pot for us. It was great. While the TV talked about visa, I remembered we haven't applied for the visa to AU yet! Thus, I had to do that at once. Luckily all the application were approved within a short time at last. Current Mood: productive (Comment on this)

10:15 am	get a cold I got a cold finally. My nose never likes cold air. I had a running nose and sneezed a lot last night. My eyes were full of tear and tired. >< After a night sleep, I feel a bit better but not yet totally fine. I suppose the cold will stay with me for a while. >< Poor me.

3:32 pm	hair treatment The student cancelled the lesson today so I have the time to go to the hair salon. I met a troublsome old lady there. She was very demanding and mean to the female staffs. I guess i Should read the books about AU again. I will be there 10 days later! :) The sun shows up again so even the temperature isn't that high, we feel much warmer. :) Current Mood: relaxed (Comment on this)

10:02 am	what a cold day The temperature drops to about 10-12C in the morning. It will keep on being cold in the following days. Hiu TSun still doesn't have her winter uniform so she needs to wear her casual clothes to school. She is worried that her teacher would blame her. I need to teach in the evening. I must wear enough clothes. Current Mood: cold (Comment on this)

10:31 pm	Disneyland It is much colder today but thanks god there is no rain. So, we decided to go to Disneyland while Hiu TSun has a school holiday. We assume it is better to go there on weekday as there should be fewer people. The cold weather also decreases people's desire to go there. Thus, we could play everything for a few times without lining up for too long. However, it was really too windy later and we were tired, we didn't stay till the last minute for the firework.

10:07 pm	birthday party It is much colder today and it would be even colder tomorrow. >< Hiu Tsun is invited to a birthday party of her classmate in McDondal's. I can see most children don't have any communication so maybe Hiu Tsun is normal not to have any real friends? The birthday cake was made with a real Barbie doll. Hiu TSun said she doesn't like its outlook but the taste of it very much. That's why she is too full now. I don't know why I also feel quite full even I just ate a hamburger only.

10:03 pm	An Arts Gala We went to an Arts Gala today. There were a lot of nice free activities provided. However, we could just join a few of the activities only as all the queues were too long. I was impressed to see so many creative ideas there. Hiu TSun's favourite is the face painting. Many people looked at her "tiger" face and she felt very proud about that. After that, I met an uni friend and borrowed a big suitcase from her. We had dinner together. Hiu TSun was tired and moody so we couldn't stay for too long.

9:55 am	Black Friday Last night, Michael and I could have a nice dinner. :) The food was sooooo delicious! :) I got myself a scarf with music notes. :) It is Black Friday and hope none of you would have bad luck. I only need to teach at home after dinner. So, I would have a free morning and afternoon. The temperature drops a lot today. Luckily it is sunny outside. The weather forecast predicts it would rain soon and then we will feel even colder. > Current Mood: relaxed (4 Comments |Comment on this)
