I can arrive a suburb and start texting friends in that suburb and see they want to come out. I normally don’t text just one. I text a few of them and when they are out we all eat together. I love all my friends to know each other. That’s just what I do. It’s fun like that. It’s a blessing that everyone knows everyone because of Susie. 

Almost every few days I will receive texts from friends asking if I could recommend tradies, places to eat, professionals, anything. Yellow page of Taiwanese community . I am very proudly to be called AJi for a reason. 

With students too. I love to blend them together causally in conversation whenever they are together. I talk about each other a lot. And when they meet in eisteddfod I absolutely love to see how everyone supports everyone . It’s just so much fun.

Good Quality of life is based on your relationship with others. Everything is more fun when you are doing with others and you all have fun and grow together. 


I make sure no one is bitchy no one gives me the attitude . It’s the culture I want to build with people around me and my students.


It’s part of the reason why they are so good. They actually motivate each other and grow together cause everyone wants to be better in front of the people they know. 

Well done everyone . Love you.
