I was walking down Caporn Street to the shopping center, passing by a small lemonade booth set up by two little girls.
Girl: Would you like a lemonade?
Me: No, thanks.
She was a bit disappointed, and said to the other girl, "We have no business..."
Trying not to disappoint her, I asked, "How much is it?"
"15 cents," answered her.
I handed her 50 cents, and waited for my lemonade to get ready. Meanwhile, she was looking for the change, obviously, i confused 15 with 50. So I gave her a 20 cents coin, got back the 50 cents, asked her to keep the change, and told her that I would grab my lemonade on my way back home.
When I went back, they have left the booth, but I found a lemonade on the table. Apparently, they left it for me. So I grabbed it, and walked towards home.
A girl was running over towards me, it was the lemonade girl.
Girl: My friend is going home; my mum said i couldn't do it alone, so we just closed the booth.
Me: Don't worry.
Girl: Have you tried the lemonade? My friend and I made it by ourselves; it's very nice, better than the ones in the supermarket!
Me: Oh really?! Let me try. (I took a sip) Yes, it's quite nice!
Walking in the same direction with her, i continued the conversation.
Me: so how much did you make today?
Girl: hmm, let me see (counting the coins in her hand)... 1 Dollar & 80 cents.
I couldn't help smiling, "haha!"
Girl: Why? That's quite good!
She appeared a bit serious, so I stopped laughing and assented, "yea, that's quite good!"
"Earlier this afternoon, we had different sizes of cups, and a large one sells 50 cents!" She looked very happy and proud.
When we reached my apartment building, we saw another boy from my neighbours. "Hey! We sold all the lemonades, there's no more for you!" Apparently, she's showing off.
"You want to have mine?" I offered him; he was silent, and looked sad.
Later, I heard him talking to his mother, "They were selling lemonade and they sold all."
A large lemonade selling 50 cents can make a little girl happy; an afternoon's total earning of $1.8 could make her thrilled; a job making and selling lemonade could bring her pride. What about us?
Watching my favouriate Australian show, "Deal or No Deal", I felt lucky for the people who walked away with huge amounts of money. However, how many people didn't stop when they should? Everybody says, "I don't want to be greedy"; however, in front of all the shining money, a tiny little hope that it might become theirs edges out their intellect, they became greedy and lost more on the contrary.
So everything boils down to one simple question, "How much is enough?" While we are struggling to make more money everyday by all means; while we are complaining about the lack of $$$ every minute, are we losing the most important things along the way, the things we used to treasure, the things we are looking forward to in the future, the things we are working towards, the things we think we will enjoy in the future, such as happiness, or a holiday.
When the difference between the poor and the rich can be summarized as the difference bewteen lying on a beach in Perth and Hawaii, why would a Perth person work so hard, save everything to fly to Hawaii?
And think about the days when we were little kids, when we could smile because our parents got us a candy. If we still have that mind of contentment, life would be much simplier, and we would be much happier!

Cairns
或许，Cairns是除Perth外，我最向往的城市，因为那里有一个不一样的海底世界。
我喜欢大海，喜欢河流，喜欢湖泊，喜欢一切有水的地方，喜欢一切与水相关的事物。总是幻想着有一天，我可以像像鱼儿一样在水底自由游动；总期盼着有一日，我可以进入海底，睁开眼睛，感受在海里、在水里的境界，看一下另外一个不一样的世界。在凯恩斯，我的这个梦实现了。
在水中看大堡礁(The great barrier reef) 软软的，我都不敢碰；五彩缤纷的鱼儿在水底游来游去，见到你也不会怕，或者受到些许惊吓，一下就躲到reef里面去了，像在跟你捉迷藏。所谓出生牛犊不怕虎，所以小鱼儿们总会跟你在一起玩耍。第一次看到海底世界，竟是这样的斑斓，这样的七彩，我喜欢这样的世界……
Cairns像一座小小的天堂，生活在这里的人都是幸福的，快乐的。市区很小，城市也很小，在飞机上望下去，甚至都可以数得清有几条街道。而这座小小的城市，又是无尽的和谐：街道上，绿化从比车道宽，随处是花，随处是公共设施，到处都是一尘不染。矮矮的楼房，不紧不慢的行人，了了的车辆，给人一种轻松、舒适的感觉。
于是，我记住了、并且永远也不会忘记那片新绿，还有那座绿色的凯恩斯……

Gold Coast
大海似乎特别眷顾这座城市，赋予了她一条无边无际的海岸线，与了无尽头的金色沙滩。于是，这府傍水而息的城市名曰"Gold Coast".
古语曰，“有山则冥，有水则灵”；水，永远是灵性的代名词，有水的地方，就有活力。在黄金海岸这座城市，所有的建筑傍水而立，城市就是海岸，海岸与城市融为一体。绵长的海岸线，狭窄的城市，使海风、海水的气息弥漫整个城市，而且每一座建筑离沙滩都不会遥远。是啊，海水，沙滩，真的好眷恋这座城市啊！
走在市区，徜徉在商场中，呼吸着海风带来的气息，走走停停，闲看着年轻人成群结队的向旁边的沙滩走去，或是一家老少一起就餐，怡然而自得。
漫步在沙滩上，阳光毫不吝惜的照耀着大地，海水是那么的蓝，远处的海岸是那么的平，那么朦胧，而又那么遥远。
在沙滩上，你永远不会被算作一个“最”，总有人比你穿得少，总有人比你漂亮，比你年轻，比你成熟。沙滩，或许真的是帅哥、美女的竞技场吧。看着冲浪的年轻人，只有一个羡慕的份。
Gold Coast，或许是应该一群朋友一起玩吧，而一个人漫步城市街道，徜徉于海滩上，在旅馆中闲坐吹着海风，又何尝不是一种乐趣呢？

Sydney
墨尔本旅途的劳累一直持续了一天，来悉尼的第一天，一直在睡，比在SMU还困，实在是睡不醒啊……于是，第二天，一整天的时间，速食悉尼，游遍了整个市区，加Bondi Beach
说实话，我对悉尼的感觉一般，或许是因为现在对旅游逐渐失去了以前的那种热情，但真的，这个城市一般，勉强说句还好吧……
去了情人港，体会了游人的休闲、浪漫、自在；去了chinatown,看到了华人在海外的生活场景；去了Opera House,见到了比深圳世界之窗更雄伟、更美丽的建筑；去了St Marry's Church，见识了一种宗教在一地的神圣；搭了游船，看到了美玉的悉尼夜景，看到了夜中的剧院，港湾大桥，还有这美丽的城市。
于是我禁不住问自己，so what? SO WHAT? 我又改变了什么？除了多见了点东西外，我又改变了什么？
突然间，我又想到了他，对我说，你不要把一切都弄得那么清楚，这样多累啊，享受生活，学会享受生活。
Relax! 3 days left for the easter break! Enjoy the rest of the holiday!

Melbourne - part 2
Finally, I have finished all my assignments, and got the time to update my blog about previous travel. And here it comes, Great Ocean Road of Melbourne
Great Ocean Road - Melbourne
I like everything natural, and on Great Ocean Road, the 12 Apostles were formed by natural force. When standing in front of them, I was shocked, it is hard to believe that is the strength of nature, so spectacular, so splendid!
Waves gently lap against the shore. Day after day, night after night, layers began appear on the rocks, from the bottom all the way to the top. Year after year, the rock began to split from the coast, and finally formed the 12 Apostles (acutally there are 14). Those Apostles and the layers on them are the witness of time, are records of a story between the ocean and the coast.
Sprays slaps the rocks and the seacoast ceaselessly, but the rocks are still grand. The sun emerged from behind the clouds, the mist began to appear, and wreathe the coast and the rocks. What a beautiful fairyland!

Melbourne part 1
Arrived in Mel on Sunday morning, and stayed for 3 days. My schedule was fully packed, with sightseeing & tours everyday, which is even more tiring than the days at school. But it's good.
Met Jenny who flew from Sydney to travel with me, Qian from UWA, Katie & Xian Hui, whom i knew from E&Y! Suddenly i got so many friends in Melbourne, and I'm so proud of that! I like it that I have friends everywhere.
About Melbourne:
Some people say, "melbourne is like a maze, you can easily get lost." Luckily, i didn't get lost. Indeed, Melbourne is very well designed, which can be seen from the alignment of the buildings, and the direction of the streets. As the second biggest city in Australia, it's "not bad", and with the attraction of Philip Island and Great Ocean Road, many people remember Melbourne.
But I'm lost... I start to get lost about the meaning of traveling. You go to a place, unfamiliar with anything there, no place to live, quality of life declines, and then you walk around, look at the buildings and sightseeings, take some photos... Is that what traveling is all about? What's the meaning of traveling anyway? I'm getting too serious. Anyway, something about Melbourne...
--Philip Island
We went to Philip Island, and saw the smallest penguins in the world, those little lives. I admire them being strong, but also pity their weakness. These little birds, spend all days feeding themselves in the sea. Only after sunset, dare they go back homes which are located on the hills cross the beach. And they have to worry about the soaring eagles when they cross the beach. Their so called "homes" are always at risk, so is their life. Even if that's the case, the so called "nice people" continue to bother them! After sunset, when people are supposed to go home, they come to this island, and they watch these birds. Thousands of people... scaring these little birds.
I'm curious to know, why would human, the so called strongest species, like to do whatever we want? Claiming "protecting other species", but is that really protection? Those lamp-posts never off during night; those view points directly destoried the penguins' path; thousands of people every night, scaring those little birds, making their life more dangeous! Why would human be so selfish? Why would they be so curious, so that they can see everything seeable in the world? Why wouldn't human just let it go, let everything in the nature go with the law?
I don't understand, but if that's more fair towards the other species, i would give up the opportunity to see them, rather than to bother them...

Pinnacles & Rottnest island
1. Pinnacles
报了旅游团，周四的时候去了向往已久的沙漠,Pinnacles.其实pinnacles最著名的不是它的沙漠，而是小小的沙漠中突起的小巨石，巨石阵的形成至今还是个迷。
以为所有的沙漠都是绵延无际的；以为所有的沙漠都是踩上去软软的，把脚埋住；以为所有的沙漠都是荒芜的除了沙之外，一无所有……直到我到了pinnacles dessert，我才知道我错了。同时，我很失望，没有见到我幻想中的沙漠。
车开始离去，带着我丝丝的遗憾，心底的不快……
然后来到了一个渔村，要玩sandboarding。汽车泄气后，走了几分钟，就来到了沙群，抬头向窗外望去，这不是沙漠吗？天啊，好像沙漠啊！绵延无际，软软的沙，随着轻风飘荡在空中，一棵植物也没有，这就是沙漠啊！于是我兴奋不已，终于见到沙漠啦！更让我兴奋的是，这里的沙是白色的。之前，我只想见红色的岩石，却不知道还是白色的沙漠，真是太让人激动了。
我不知道我有过多少个梦境，有很多已经实现了，而如今，在我的list中，有3个，沙漠，红石，花海。如果是在春天，也许我已经在perth看到了花海。在秋天的野外，野草已长满，荒芜的可爱，但不是我想看的花海。我想看的，是普罗旺斯的那种薰衣草花海，向日葵花海，有一天，我会看到……
汽车在沙漠中继续行驶，沙堆像一个个的小山丘似的，车子就在这样的山上行驶。远方是蔚蓝的海洋，明朗的天空，白色的沙漠，多么美的一幅画面啊！突然间，前面没有路了，到了小山丘的边缘。而导游却继续向前开，于是我尖叫起来，全车的人都看我，大家也叫起来，车驶向了山丘底，那坡度啊，使一位坐在后面的游客的包一直滚到是最前面……
然后我们在那个坡上玩滑板，从山头一直滑下去，两手伸起，迎风滑去，一个字，爽！
带着一天的兴奋，我们开始返回了。在路上休息，于是大家都弄鞋子里、袜子里的沙，倒在地上。一当地人经过，说了句,"Take the sand with you, we got plenty!"哈哈
2. Rottnest Island
这是我来perth以来第一次与中国人集体行动，一次快乐的旅游！
中国人就是准时，8点到就是8点到，虽然晚了几分钟，但8：10全到了，大家一起搭bus去fremantle乘船。
第一次第那么快、那么起伏的船，难道是印度洋的风浪更紧？呵呵。船在海中行驶，不时的给大家点刺激，感受下失重，我闭上眼休息，听见很多乘客们一次次的"啊!"不错。
又是第一次知道，原来那种双人自行车，需要两人都会骑。我们一行7人，2人不会骑，我就说，可以租2辆双人的，原因是上次我看到一对父子骑，就自然而然的认为小孩不会。而在租车的时候，才知道不行，不过大家愿意一试。还好有两个男生，可以打头。经过几试，觉得行，我们就租车游岛……
骑着单车，在荒凉的岛上行驶，不时停一下，看看哪个人又掉队了，跟伙伴们一起谈笑，吹着海风，真是一种享受啊！上坡时，听着Zero同学像牛一样的叫着蹬车，看着可怜的Fanny同学跟在0后面，细细的双腿飘在空中，真是搞笑。
停下来休息几次，大家都喊饿了，岛上却只有东部有卖吃的，我们却还在west end，那个无奈啊。我呢，带了饭，大家说不吃，我也没法吃，真是伤心啊！0同学带了巧克力，大家吃了一半，他再分时，骞同学讲，唉，现在才1点半，我们要骑到8点多来，到6点多肯定饿，留着吧！于是大家笑成一团。
上路，看到是Quokka，真的是小袋鼠哎，不过还是像老鼠，我照了张相，赶紧跑。0居然给老鼠喂笔，气得我一脚把他胳膊踢开，痛得他直叫，活该！一会又给它们喂树枝，真是无奈啊。骞同学说，quokka挺像0的，什么都吃，于是大家又笑到肚子难受……
Anna跟Zero带了泳衣，那么冷的天，居然想游泳，还真的在一个海边脱了鞋，不知道为什么没游，笑死人…
继续上路，一路欢笑，又看到了发电的风车，看到了红色的湖，anna跟骞讨论，到底是4氧化3铁，还是3氧化2铁，呵呵，无奈，大家都忘了，无果而终……
看到了房屋，于是大家看到了希望，希望啊，可以吃饭了！速度开始加快。
吃完饭，骞同学开始给大家算卦，还不让人说是算卦，说是叫开启心灵之门，大家吃进的饭差点喷出来。我第一个算，算什么呢，算人生吧。算得水平呢，也不知道高还是低，马马虎虎吧，中间说了一句，其实我也不太知道，得看看说明书，我们狂晕，我直接就逃了！他说，不行，不能逃，得算完……
不过呢，这种算卦，就算是给人一个小提醒吧，谁能说得准会发生什么啊，但像“人无远虑，必有近忧”这样的醒世名言，还是需要我们思考的。
然后之后的人，全都算爱情，我晕！看来我真是看得开，爱情这种东西嘛，该来的时候，自然会来的，消极是有点消极，但应该比积极主动更具保护性吧，毕竟这样不会容易受伤吧，哎，不管了，无所谓。
一天以冰冷的气候结束，大家说好recess后一起去swan vally或者margerate river, looking forward.我快冻僵了，上车，回家，煮面，开始暖了过来……
看照片才发现，我其实挺胖了……无奈了。

Life is like heaven when you don't study
haha. Yes!
Life is like heaven when i don't have to worry much about study!
Study is much more fulfilling when i don't have to worry about grade!
Aussie girls like to wear a kind of dress, with a plain top, and a skirt with little flowers. They look very beautiful! And i bought several pieces last saturday.
Outlet shopping is just driving people crazy, because $1 there doesn't equal $1 outside any more. People just spend money like mad... as least this is what happened to me.
Anyway, I'm very happy, with 3 dresses, 1 skirt, 1 pair of shoes, 1 bag, 1 pair of sunglasses from the outlet shopping. Cheers!

Beach
周末去了著名的Cottesloe Beach,很美。
不过我觉得，比起汹涌的大海，我现在更喜欢安静的港湾，像Matilda Bay这样的，安安静静的，适合家人、小孩玩耍。
有时候，我觉得的自己第六感觉真的很准。真的很不想去Beach，结果去了，就把太阳镜丢了。就像上次一样，不想去WWW，去了就把相机丢了。太阳镜丢了，我真伤心了，不知道弄坏、弄丢几副了，下一副什么时候再买……
传几张照片吧

夏日渐去...
perth的夏日要结束了，真的要结束了。一个人坐在Matilda Bay的椅子上，看了夕阳下的河面，海风吹来，有了几丝凉意，于是我长叹一口气，夏日要结束了，便开始伤感……
我喜欢夏日，所以我不会讨厌新加坡，因为在夏日里，你可以随时穿自己最喜欢的裙子，可以随时就去海边，去水里玩，可以不会为冻感冒而烦恼，我喜欢漂亮的日子，我喜欢健康的日子。而今，秋天来了，我应该不讨厌秋天吧。
Perth是一个安静的城市，UWA是一个安静、人文的校园，在这样的校园里，我经常的思考，思考很多很多的事情，就这样，一个人，静静地想，我很喜欢这样的日子。
昨天，我很困惑，我很迷茫。在交换前，我信口胡言，或许当时真的是这么想的，说自己在exchange时，一定要做些疯狂的事情，有人请客，自己就去吃，有人请看电影，就去看，自由自在，不要管太多。于是，我真的这么去做了，但我去觉得越来越不对劲，我到底在做什么？！
每个人都有属于自己的个性。记得哥哥说，有个性，找到自己的性格，才会在外面混得下去。他对我说，你的个性就是你善于与人交流，敢于发问，这样的你，会成功的。这些都是三年前的话了，我还记得……
而在我自己的眼中，我最看重的个性却是正直与善良。正直，所以不会去从事一些勾三搭四的事情；善良，所以会真心真意的关心别人，对别人好。出国以来，我渐渐的变了，但这两个原则没有变，并且，我越来越向这样的原则靠近，成为一个正直、善良的，像哥哥一样的人。
从这点上来讲，我现在在做什么呢？！既不正直，也不善良，违背的是自己最最看重的两个做人的原则，做人的标准。就算交换会给自己留下些回忆，这样的回忆，又会是美好的吗？
我只想做我自己，就算是孤单一个人，我也快乐！
我喜欢夏日，所以我不会讨厌新加坡，因为在夏日里，你可以随时穿自己最喜欢的裙子，可以随时就去海边，去水里玩，可以不会为冻感冒而烦恼，我喜欢漂亮的日子，我喜欢健康的日子。而今，秋天来了，我应该不讨厌秋天吧。

校园
一个人在外，我什么都不怕，但唯一怕的就是生病，因为每次生病都会很严重。
昨天，实在忍不住了，哭了起来，感到特别委屈，为什么偏偏是自己，这么倒霉，就感冒了呢？
一气之下，不管了，生病就生病，我还不吃药了呢！随便你怎么样吧！
或许是药吃的也足够多了，感冒奇迹般开始好转了！
昨晚去了REID Library，借了本书往回走，校园里是那么的安静，那么的宽阔，那么的人文。这样的校园才像是大学。我喜欢这样的学校。
以后，等我病痊愈了，我要每天都坚持跳绳锻炼，每周都要与朋友打羽毛球，经常去河边、去校园里散步，早晨起来去读英语，还要好好学习，因为这些科目都是我喜欢学习的！好好生活，善待自己！
或许，只是这样一个学期，整个交换也就值了，因为这是我在SMU想都不敢想的生活。

Perth
总感觉会照顾好自己，但事实并非如此。
来到perth的第三天，就开始感冒了，现在仍在感冒中。
图书馆的网络好像跟自己电脑不兼容，时断时续，找人看过很多次也还是不管用。
夏天已接近尾声了，昨天傍晚去了河边，怕夏日去后，无法在欣赏到夏日的夕阳，夏日的河面。
猛然间在电脑包里发现了一个遗留的Audit Ring，于是将它带在手腕上，我有点想念我的Audit Engagement Team.
传几张照片吧，perth的确很美
