So, I finally met Mr Big today for any work vacany at the 'Big' department. Turned out that the salary at the Big Department is not as good as I thought it would be. In fact, it sucks. BUT, the BIGness will look pretty cool on my CV in the future and if by any chance I get to go back to Aussieland, it'll come in handy. Mr Big was pretty awesome. For some reason, he's willing to help me out. I guess I owe it all to 'connections' my folks have.
I had a day with mom today. I talked a lot with her. It was quite predictable. The whole 'mom dissing grandmom' and 'grandmom dissing mom'; it's getting old. I've learnt to just gulp it all in and just act according to it 'while' I was there. I really wanna make a good living for my grandparents, mom and my sis if I ever get to Aussie again. It's not about enjoying my life anymore. Once you know your 'home' is fucked up, trust me, there's no utter longing to hang out on Oxford st looking for Mr Right.
At night, I hung out with KP, his wife, Steve and my new found Canadian friend, who got a bit freaked out when I asked him if he was single. I asked him only cos it was relevant to the topic of our conversation. No homo, honest! It was a nice chill out. Japanese restaurant... it's funny how people like to take me to grand places when I've been running getting away 2 sushi rolls for 5 bucks at the Matthews Lounge. Whichever food that they had in Aussie that's NOT asian is considered quite grand. I always find it much better to eat pure Burmese food on a busy Burmese street while the cars pass by, followed by a mysterious fifteen minutes in the bathroom, pooing away your diarrhoeaic sorrows when you get home. KP's wife told me something I've heard before. People like Mel Lau or Robby had always said this to me before I left. I find it qutie cute and heartwarming to hear it from a girl, whose husband I just came out to after five years of absence from them. She said this before I got off their car...
Don't change :D
