Dragon Boat Festival

Today is the Dragon Boat Festival in the Lunar Calendar. Normally, people will eat 'zong zi' (dumpling) and row boats on this day to remember Qu Yuan. This year's dragon boat festival is very different for me. I only get to eat ONE dumpling only. It cost AUD3.00 for ONE dumpling. No festive mood at all. =P Anyway, I wish everyone 'duan wu jie kuai le'!!!! Exams are coming up. Argh! All my papers are three hours! The worst thing is my final paper is on a Saturday afternoon! NO!!!! But looking at the bright side, half of the year is gone which means I am getting to closer to going back to Kuching! Muahahahaha....!!!! For now, I have to study for my exams and get a part time job. By the way, the Malaysian government has increased the petrol price. RM 2.70 something per litre!!!! Please pray for our government. They seriously need our prayers. God, please save Malaysia.

Selamat Hari Gawai!

Selamat Hari Gawai to all my Dayak friends. Too bad I am not in Kuching now. Otherwise, I would be following my parents to visitation and stuffing myself with loads of food. =P I could still remember last year's (2007) today. I was sitting for my A Level Chemistry paper 4 when everyone in Sarawak were enjoying the Gawai holiday. It was a 1 hour and 45 minutes paper. But thank God my exam was in the morning. At least, I managed to follow my parents for visitation in the afternoon and dinner at New Hong Kong restaurant. Sigh....I miss Kuching a lot!!!! Boohoo!!!! I can't wait for December! Exams are coming up. I better pay my attention on that first. =( God, please give wisdom and good memory as I prepare for my exams.
