Doing Entrepreneurial Finance project, we need to have a creative business idea and implement it. Let me count my ideas:
1. "Post-it". I had the idea after post-it came out. Well, too late.
2. Online 3-D fitting room: I still think this would make a great business. Next time when you go to ebay or taobao to shop, you will be able to "try" on the clothes. Upload your photo, key in your height, weight and some basic information, the system will be able to generate a 3-D photo of yours! Right now, in the market, there is this "My visual Model" which looks like 3D technology, but is not; and the model is just a model, not you. However, this idea was done by another group last term. My professor shared this idea with them. I wonder if any company is doing this, and I hope to see it in the market soon.
3. Recycle paper by deinking. Ever wondered if recycling paper can be as easy as printing? Not sure if such a technology is available or is realistic, but would anything be able to deink the paper, in the same time, recycle the ink as well. Till now, i couldn't seem to find anything that can achieve the simple purpose. My only concern is that, the cost of recycling might be even higher than going through the whole process of recycling paper by current technology, because the later is on a much larger scale.
4. Transform Radiation to electric energy. Lots of radiation is affecting our health everyday. Imagine that there's such a "protector" that can absorb the radiation and transform it into energy, wouldn't life be much better? According to my research, the technology is available now, which uses nano technology.
Still thinking hard... Will i ever change the world by a little bit?

恐惧
总会时不时的产生一种淡淡的恐惧，一种真实的不安全感，而现在，这种恐惧感逐渐加重。
我真的很怕自己会回到2年前的状态，每天孤独的生活着，为了学习在学校待到12点多，然后一个人委屈的大哭；平时就算听着周杰伦的歌，也会哭得稀里哗啦，于是，到现在我都不敢去听《蒲公英的约定》，《青花瓷》。
现在这个状态，好像又回到了以前，我不知道自己怕什么，如果说现实残酷，那么对有些人来说，更是甚之。而我唯一能做的，只能每天对自己说一句“娜娜加油！”并且真正努力的去做事情！
”娜娜加油！“

Back to reality
School has started for 2 weeks, and I'm back to reality again.
It was so hard for my first week. After 8 months away from SMU, i don't even know how to study!
"I'm very happy that I'm graduating soon;
I'm very sad that school has just started!"
Still, i made it through for 2 weeks, and everything is getting better as time goes by.
When we are back to reality, there will always be something that we will miss from the crazy world, such as the crazy friends we met and the crazy things we did together! And there is always something that we missed and are glad to have back. Maybe that's life. You can't have everything. But who said that we wouldn't be happy with just what we have now? :)
古语曰:"知足而常乐". I am satisfied, and I am happy! And wish I can learn more during my last year in university!

娜娜求职记(三)
5.Vital Juice
If all other 4 experiences are not considered real jobs, working in Vital Juice is the only official job experience I had in Perth. Edwin is a “senior” staff in VJ, and he introduced me this job. VJ is a juice bar, located at Murray Street Mall. We mainly sell freshly squeezed juice & smoothies. Maybe because I like fruits, everything in VJ tastes delicious:
Banana Max: made with milk, banana, honey, yogurt
Mango Mystic: made with tropical juice, mango, strawberry, mango sorbet
Very berry: made with apple juice, strawberry, blueberry, raspberry, yogurt
Immunity: made with fresh apple, celery, ginger, garlic, pepper
Tune up: made with apple, carrot, orange, ginger…
VJ is a crazy place, filled with crazy people. Often, people like something not because the fame, the environment, but because of the people. And VJ is just one example. Let me introduce the people to you:
Starting with the boss – Bob: Bob is a nice middle aged New Zealander. He’s nice in some aspects compared to the prior boss: he doesn’t mix his mood with the business; he’s not very strict, which makes the job very relaxing. Edwin always says he’s nice, but stupid, because he doesn’t really understand the business, and added a coffee machine which has been making loss since Day 1; he works very slowly. My impression of him is neutral. The only thing I don’t like him is that he thinks people are all like him. If he works very slowly, as I a new member, I must work very slowly. I don’t like the kind of employer without the trust and confidence in me.
My trainer – Kevyn: Kevyn is a Chinese from Mauricio. “I don’t speak Chinese; I speak French.” When people talk to him in Chinese, he always replies this way. He has a very young appearance, like 18 years old, while he is 24 indeed. I only got to know his real age on my last day. Judging by his look, “小白脸” would be the first word out of your mouth! Well, that’s not without proof. How to put it, maybe he’s a natural flirter. When he’s in VJ, you can always see him flirt with girls, and interestingly, girls like to talk to him. But the good thing is, he loves his girlfriend. During his last two weeks, he almost worked everyday to earn more money for his trip to KL, to see his girlfriend. Sweet!
When I mention Kevyn, everybody who has been to VJ would not forget how I "hit" him. As we got closer, everything became very casual. He always bitches about the “Meat Ball”, another Aussie girl in VJ. Those bad words, especially the “F” word drove me crazy, and that was how he got beaten by me. After that, he told the people in VJ that I always slapped him. To prove him right, I had to keep doing it, slapping him whenever he talks bad word. So it became a famous sightseeing in VJ. Everybody must have seen that, and they like it!
Mikail: Mikael is from Indonesia. I only got to know him during the second week after I came to VJ. At first, he was very quiet; we didn’t talk much. In the end, we became very good friends. One day, he came to work in the noon. Feeling thirsty, he made a drink for himself. And then, he went to buy lunch; and again, he went to the toilet after that. I sold a few juice in the mean time, and made some samples out of the "chicken soup". Then, a great idea came across my mind. I poured a little bit of the chicken into a "Very berry" drink, and stirred, stirred... He came back, continued with his own drink.
"Hey, Mikail! Do you want the very berry? I just made it!"
"Oh, ok."
"Quickly finish yours, and i'll pour it into your cup!"
...
...
He got really mad over that, and i dared not to make fun of him any more...
I just wonder, "does the chicken soup taste really that bad?!"

娜娜求职记（二）
3. SG Tucker
Mei is a nice person, from Taiwan. She has a small stall in the food court "Food Forum" located at Wembley. She is very direct, in what she says, and in how she acts.
11:05am, i was on the bus to work. She called,
"樊小姐，你还来不来啊?!"
"噢，我在路上呢。不是11：30嘛？"
"噢，11：30啊，对不起啊，我年纪大了，记性不好"
When i reached the stall at 11:20, she apologized again with a big laugher.
She is very bossy, likes to order people around. She doesn't teach people, and assume that I know everything there, based on??? I have no idea. So interestingly, 2 other helpers at the stall do not know much too, even though 1 person has been there for very long time. Therefore, when we work together, it was a bit messy.
The second day, I met this girl called Bobo from HK. She's a cook in HK, also on working holiday visa, does everything well. But I just don't like it when people are arrogant. She messed up the orders, asked me to deliever the food to the wrong customer. When i said, "are you sure? I think this one is..." "Just give to him, I'm sure!"
In the end, the food was wrong. Luckily, they were regular customers, so everything was settled with Mei's big smile.
Mei has a full menu, which has more items, and shows the ingredients of all the SG food. So i tried to show customers the full menu to "grab" more orders. Surprisingly, Mei got angry about that, "Do not show customers that menu, that's for you! If not, they would order Fujian Kuay Teo Mian, instead of Fujianmian". When I was thinking why? Is it more troublesome to make "Kuay Teo Mian"? But we got more sales! She thought i didn't get it, "Understand?" "Yes, understand!"
I got too upset with the wrong order, and Mei's shouts, so didn't want to take lunch. But she made lunch for 3 of us, and I appreciate that. When you are outside, nobody but you can take care of yourself. I have known that a few years ago. That lunch put on a nice image of her in my mind, forever! Due to timing inconvenience, I never went back to work there, though I miss the food a lot, and I got another job, as a babysitter @ Caterina's...
4. Babysitter @ Caterina's
Caterina is a nice and incredibly beautiful Italian lady. With 3 children in the family, i guess she's mainly a housewife; maybe she's in control of some company which doesn't need her physical appearance? Anyway, she's the kind of perfect wife and perfect mother!
Alesia is 8, Sylvia is 5, and Louki is 15 months old. I always love the white babies, because they really look so cute (under the age of 14).
The cute Sylvia looks like a barbie doll, so i always lift her up, just as I lift up a doll. As a 5 year old baby, she doesn't know how to arrange her stuff, how to make her bed. Her room is always messy, without everything lying around. You could find a turtle shaped handmade paper bag in one corner, and maybe a dirty sock in another corner. Helping her clean room is always fun!
Alesia is in primary school now. A little bit older as the BIG sister, she appears more obedient. Interestingly, once she asked me,
"Do you have a boyfriend?"
"No."
"Then do you have a girlfriend?"
"Oh yea, 2 of you are my girlfriends!"
And surprisingly, another question, "Do you have a baby?" asked Sylvia.
"..."
"Sylvia, she doesn't even have a boyfriend!"
Well, looks like they are too smart!
This is a perfect family, a handsome and gentle husband, a beautiful and nice wife, 3 cute kids, a big house. Sometimes, the girls fight; sometimes, the baby cries; sometimes, the husband comes back late; but more often, the house is filled with laughters, with care, and with love. I want a family like that!

Shopping @ Habourtown
I really LOVE Harbourtown!!!
Shopping one last time before I leave Perth, and I went to Dotti, an Aussie brand which i like a lot. Picked up a few pieces of dress, and was a bit upset when I saw the prices. Some are still expensive even though it's winter time now.
And then I decided to buy a dress for $19.95.
Approached the cashier, took out $20 from my wallet, waiting for the salesgirl to scan and ask me for cash...
Suddenly, i heard a voice, "$9.95"
"What?! $19.95, is it?"
"$9.95!" She answered firmly!
"Ok, wait! I'll just grab another one!"
3 hrs shopping, I ended up with 7 bags, clothes & shoes, for me, and for my friends! :)

娜娜求职记（一）
Exchange life had finished 2 weeks ago, but I chose to stay for longer, and find a casual job, claiming to my parents that "I want to live on my own for a while". So I started the job hunting process before my final exams, and have worked at several places. I don't earn much. There's nothing much left after I pay for my rental & living expenses. Interestingly, I'm enjoying this kind of life, enjoying the simplicity.
The job hunting is never easy in Australia, especially for foreigners. Interestingly, employers recruit mostly PR; foreigners can apply for PR only if they have a job. Haha, still that question of chicken and eggs, who appeared first? Luckily, I'm not part of the it, just looking for a casual job. So i had a few "jobs" or stories relating to my "jobs":
1. Pizza Hut
Got this piece of information that this shop is recruiting, at Innaloo. I talked to Alice (the female boss) on QQ, and we had a nice chat. The conversation included almost everything about the job, like training hours, pay rate, tax, working hours. We agreed on an interview the next day. So i went for the interview. Alice wasn't there, so her husband David interviewed me. We are all Chinese, and we all know that. Interestingly, David started the conversation in a very strange way: he talked to me in English, and he acted very casual. Hmmm, ok, never mind, I'll just talk in English.
"Why do you apply for PizzaHut?"
...... (Truth to be told, I didn't even know the shop was PizzaHut until Alice told me when i asked for the address of the SHOP.)
So i appeared a bit dumb...
"Or are you looking for a job only?"
"Yea, I'm looking for a job...in the food industry" I replied.
Interview continued......
"Ok, Nana, *****"
"Sorry, i don't really understand, could you repeat what you just said?"
And then he appeared a bit unhappy, thinking that I might doubt about his English. The truth is, his English isn't that good, that's why he cares too much.
......
After the interview, i left for home, messaged Alice to see if she wanted to arrange the training for me. 2 days, no reply, so I moved on.
3 days after, got msg from Alice, "pls come for training on Wed afternoon", i never go back again, because I have heard from another employer --
2. KOME Japanese Restaurant
I called Jennifer, the boss of KOME to see if she was hiring. She sounded very nice, and arranged me an interview that afternoon. She's from China, graduated from Curtin Uni, opening the restaurant with her husband Frank. We talked for 20 mins, and everything went well. So my training would start after my last exam. That's also why i was so confident to reply Alice with that "Sorry, i got another job already."
And what happened to me in KOME was just a HUGE surprise. The job was very tiring, but i dont mind. It's a very busy shop, so high level of efficiency is required. The colleague called "Pity" was my trainer. She's from Taiwan, on working holiday visa, a nice young lady. So i just followed her to do everything. Not boosting myself, but I really learnt all the work very fast, coz i have done a lot of work at home since i was very young. She was surprised to see that I did everything so fast, and could remember things so quickly. I even did the first wrap perfectly, so she said I have a gift in cooking/food, and told the boss that I was the smartest trainee she had seen since she came to the store. The couple boss were also very happy.
Ended my work at 4+, Jennifer told me that I would be working 3 days the following week. So i went home.
Received a call on Friday from Jennifer, to see if i can work on Sat. I said yes. So i just did what Pity taught me the day before, and finished at 2pm. Jennifer paid me, claiming that she pays employees weekly. That was the first pay, and my last pay from her. I got FIRED. BOOMZ! What's that??? How did that happen? Till now, i still don't know what happened? Anybody can figure that out by the msg below?
"You are a hard worker and a nice person. But we don't think that we can help each other in this busy time. All the best for your future."
Who needs your help? I just want a casual job! That night, I couldn't sleep until 4am, and I cried. How am i ending up with this? I'm looking for some fun, looking for a job to feed myself for a while, to prove that I can live on my own. And i'm just ending up with being "FIRED". What am i thinking? What am i going through all these for? All the job huntings, all the rejections by employers, am i finished? How much more are there? This is so ironic, "when there's no problem, you create them and slove them". What Chairman Mao said became my situation at this moment!
I thought about going back to SG or China, just change my tickets and then I could say "Goodbye" to all these dramas. Surprisingly, I chose to stay again, and I called Mei for another job at a food court.

Good food to share

"When we were walking through the narrow alleys, it was literally impossible not to step in the raw sewage and the garbage alongside the little homes. But at the same time it was also impossible not to see the human vitality, the aspiration and the ambition of the people who live there."
"I thought I wanted a husband, but what I really wanted was a family that was loving. And I fiercely love my children, and they love me back.” She said, “I thought that I wanted to be a doctor, but what I really wanted to be was somebody who served and healed and cured."

Just one last dance
By Sarah Connor & Marc Terenzi

Just one last dance....oh baby...just one last dance
We meet in the night in the Spanish café
I look in your eyes just don't know what to say
It feels like I'm drowning in salty water
A few hours left 'til the sun's gonna rise
Tomorrow will come, it's time to realize
Our love is finished forever
How I wish to come with you (wish to come with you)
How I wish we make it through
Chorus:
Just one last dance
Before we say goodbye
When we sway and turn round and round and round
It's like the first time
Just one more chance
Hold me tight and keep me warm
Cause the night is getting cold
And I don't know where I belong
Just one last dance
The wine and the lights and the Spanish guitar
I'll never forget how romantic they are
But I know, tomorrow I'll lose the one I love
There's no way to come with you
It's the only thing to do
Just one last dance, just one more chance, just one last dance
