Make a Wish

I don't consider myself Buddhist but I went to a Buddhist temple today. And it wasn't the best weather for that visit either as it's been raining and stuff.

I actually wanted to visit this temple two times and failed after I first visited it with my housemates. The first time I couldn't find it and the second time it was closed. It was like an hour drive from my place and it wasn't that easy for me to visit it, that's part of the fun I see it.

The reason I wanted to visit back this temple is that I made a wish on my first visit and then the wish came true. I need to go back to it to thank Buddha for granting it. Well anyway, that's the idea. The fact that my wish came true doesn't necessarily have anything to do with Buddha, but I still feel like I need to at least come back and thank him. And of course I made a new wish this time too, and I will surely come back when it came true.

I Got News

I actually got it for a while, but now that it's confirmed so that I could safely tell, I got a new job and I'm moving away from Adelaide.

I'm pretty glad that I finally did that. At least it is my professional area that I will be working in, instead of feeling like a wasted talent every single day at work. I feel lucky that both my current and new boss are very supportive.

And yes after two years (I know it hasn't been but it will be by the time I move out) spent in Adelaide and barely even left I'm moving on. Well, I have been moving to smaller areas constantly. From Guangzhou, China with 10m+ population to Melbourne with 5m to Adelaide with 1.2m now to a small town in Clare Valley with only a few hundreds. I think I really am a country boy at heart though, and now I'd be officially in the country. 2 hours drive from Adelaide I think I'd still be visiting back quite often. I'm all excited about this whole new life anyway.

I'll see you there.
