In memory of my necklace and some awesome news

I lost my necklace..  two weeks ago. It’s not just ANY necklace, it’s THE necklace that my beloved parents gave me on my 21st Birthday! It’s a symbol of their love to me. An asset. My protection against evil stuff. And most importantly, its bloody hell expensive!!! I know it is really bad to start blogging with a bad news and I don’t wanna spoil people’s mood and all… even so, I had to grieve for it! So bear with me… I lost it when I went for the medical check-up the other day and carelessly stuff it in my jean’s pocket. FRONT left pocket! I was utterly confident that it will not slip out.. OBVIOUSLY, I was wrong. Sigh…. So, if anyone of you might somehow stumble on a silver chain with a key pendant in the middle of Swanston St., please call me ASAP.  

On a lighter note, I do have a HUGE news to break. I got my Permanent Residency in Australia!!! Hehehehe! Wooohhooo! I still can’t believe it could be this soon, not that I’m complaining. It’s just another heavy issue taken off from my shoulder. Mind you, its Residency and not Citizenship. I’m still very much a proud Malaysian and my passport is still dark red colour. Anyhow, having this extra visa in my passport would open more doors for me and hopefully, *fingers and toes crossed* I would get an amazing job in my preferred field soon. Like.. real soon! Coz if truth be told, patience is not one of my many virtues.

On top of that, Terence and I miraculously found $90 cash under our table the other night! It was funny cause we were looking forward to check out this rooftop bar and decide to do so last Sunday.  And when we saw the cash, we merely left it under the table for five minutes and pretended we didn’t saw them. It was the most awkward five minutes between us as we kept quiet the entire time while looking around suspiciously. Personally, I thought we were in a reality show where the camera crew will jump out from the nearest bush as soon as we pick up the cash. Fortunately, there were none of those. We did picked the cash up eventually and left it untouched on our table. Then we made a pledge to wait for a good one hour for the owner to return. As much as we would like to be a good Samaritan, that didn’t happen. So we ended up with extra $90 in our purse. Hehehehe! Lucky eh?  What did we do with the money? Well, we donate it of course. To the Red Cross International Fund. For those who refuse to believe me, you may pop me an email and I’ll forward the receipt to you. Hmph! But yeah, although some would call us fool but considering the money doesn’t belong to us in the first place, it is only right to donate to those who need them even if it might not meant much. Correct? =)
