Here's my 1st posting from Australia..
Have wanted to blog when i arrive few days back..
but was jus too lazy and moodless..
well.. today is already my 5th day here.. so lets do some back trekking...
1st day,..
Arrived in the morning.. a little delay.. so touch down at 7 plus.. then took a transfer to cumquat house which is where i stay..
journey took bout 1 hour..
when i arrive.. i was quite happy..
I like my house a lot.. and my room is exactly wat i hope for.. totally cosy..
unpack a little.. then was too hungry...
so went to walk around.. went to my new school first.. its a small campus.. but nothing at all.. cause its a saturday...
then tried to take a bus to ipswich centre..
ate at a cafe there.. food is so so onli.. but all the portion is so BIG. so its filling.. then after eating.. i Jus wan to SLEEP.. i am so tired la!
Had to shop for some groceries... then got a pre paid card so i can make phone calls.. then got home..
my housemates soon came home and one of them is my poly mate.
Dinner was prepared by one of my housemate and it was great...
jus packed a little more then slept.. its jus freezing cold..
had a great drinking session wit my housemates.. and i was truely happy..
Day 2 was slightly better..
We went to brisbane city!
train ride was bout 1 hour.. got there and we went for lunch..
tis time round there is so many of us... lots of poly frens and new fren tt i met here..
lunch was again toooo filling... then we went shopping after tt...
after shopping we went to my fren's new home! a rented apartment.. nice view.. and i like it too..
jus tt rent was a bit ex.. but i am sure they will enjoy their stay there....
went back to ipswich after tt.. and had the 1st cooked meal by my landlord..
dinner is provided to me 5 times a week...
it was pretty alright...
day 3..
went to school for the 1st time..
orientation sux big time... totally boring.. onli bout 10 international students.. and its like attending a whole lot lectures.. but the person was really friendly and lunch was provided...
so after lunch, the boring lectured carry.. but everyone was actually most interested in settling all the academic stuff cause its kinda of complicated and differnet for everyone..
as i look at the new students. i am really glad i have frens here who helped me out.. some of them are really lost.. and the place i stay is really good.. cause at least there was internet which then allowed me to use the com and stuff.. and meals really wasn;t a problem for me.. i feel blessed.. went to ipswich centre again after orientation to open bank account and buy some more stuff.... then went home for dinner!
day 4..
orientation was worse! more talks.. and i really almost slept.. the weather was too good..
wanted to settle my academic stuff today but the appointment was for tomolo..damn it..
so went home and went out wit my hosemates again today..
went to the main campus which is st. lucia campus.. took loads of photo. then walked about in toowong... went for dinner at hawkens.. had indian food and the curry ROX!!! its freaking good...
it cost bout 20 aussie.. so not cheap.. but worth it.. then went to milton for some dessert. had the highly recommended HOT CHOC!! and its really GOOD!!!!!
slag there and talk cock. really chilling out.. was so tir4ed and sleep after tt.. cause time flies!!.. then took the super long train back to ipswich.. and had to walk back to cumquat caus there was no more bus.. tts really sux.. cause its freezing cold.. its probably bout 0 degrees la..
today, i felt more happy and open. my mum wasn;t wit me, then i felt tt i could be more ME.. hmm.. but i am going to miss her when she's going back..
Got to noe a new fren from hong kong too.. he's a cute guy.. but think he is straight.. so pretty sad.. at tis moment in time.. u jus hope to have some company when u really need it.. a hand to hold.. a body to hug.. a sholder to lean on and a listening ear..
i hope he's the one..but guess i am jus dreaming.. jus a new fren i have made.. i jus hope he is a nice guy...
day 5. which is today..
slept till really late today..
went to school oin the afternoon JUS to settle my academic stuff.. got most of the stuff settles already.. which makes me feel much more secure... came home early and didn't go to the centre..
felt really bored at home... then jus slag till dinner and went to eat.. realise there's onli my HK fren and me.. so its like candlelight dinner.. HAHA.. ok i am in dream land again.. i better wake up.. its so cold, seriously i think it affects the working of the brain.. talk a little more but nothing special.. came back home and my mum came back soon after her day tour.. jus talk a little more wit her today cause wouldn;t e seeing her anymore for more then 4 months..
chat wit a few pals in aussie and was suppose to mee tup tomolo for gathering, but a lot kind of fly kite.. due to various reasons.. anyway.. chatting wit one of my buddy.. made me feel a little depress.. so feeling a little low now.. well.. i jus hope tomolo's a better day...
i am going to stop here for now..
