Polymates' Gathering

, , No Comments
I know it is pretty late now, but I am still feeling very energetic which I guess is because of the "Yuen Yang" I had from Ya Kun.  Anyway, I had just finished my gathering session with my poly mates  Well, it was so difficult to meet them due to our different working schedules and stuffs. However, I am glad that we finally   make some time to meet due to Lela's back in town from Brisbane, Australia.

I think I will not mention all the details that we have chatted but generally, I feel happy for Lela finally being an Australian PR, having  " relax" working hours and a nice boss, living happily together with the boyfriend.

In fact, it feels like a dream to live there when I first heard that: 

1) A 2 bedroom apartment with a swimming pool, costs about $400,000 AUD, which is equivalent to a 4 room flat ( Non Mature area) in Singapore of 99 years lease. 

2) The people there are generally quite practical, not into European branded goods and they adore their local brands where Roxy and Billabong are already the "high end" brands in most's eyes!

3) Being paid weekly or bi-weekly in Australia, unlike Singaporeans having to wait pathetically for their monthly salary. 

4) A brand new Mazda 2 costs only $15,000 AUD . 

5) The country promotes using clean and green energy with solar and wind power efficiently.  

6) Mummy(s) have flexible working hours, you may go back home as long as you have finished your work.   

Despite all these, deep in my heart, I am still feeling very grateful for being a Singaporean. Like having a cute little Boo around me and my fix hours' job for me to strike a work/life balance lifestyle. Not forgetting that my family will always be close to me.  Frankly speaking, when I heard  Lela talking about her life in Australia  I do envy her for awhile, but I guess humans always think the other side will always be greener than where he/she is staying now.
