Daily Doses
Its getting cold in here, so pile on all your clot
Tuesday. 7.12.05 8:38 am
Brrrrrr.... Its freezing in here. Woke up at abt 8am, washed up and ate breakfast b4 i set out to school alone. Well, its was drizzling in the morning up till nite time. I feel quite normal when i took the bus to school. Had to remember the landmarks and the turnings, but it was not that bad.

Was early for the arrival briefing anf had to look for the place,finally found the room EM212. The briefing was abt the all the usual stuff plus tours of the school and outside sight-seeing for a small sum of money. But i didnt sign up cz nobody accompanying me. So the next few daes no nd to wake up so early liao. AT Home slacking. The school tour was quite fast, i still dun noe where the commerce building is. Haiz... All the buildings dun have names on them. Sucks....

Later on, went to cafe wif a new fren to have lunch b4 another briefing on enrolment. the food there is ex, i jus bought a choco donut and a bottle of lemonade and it costs me $4. Nxt time, i bring my own water and bring some food wif me to sch. The enrolment talk was long and the room was very cold. The female lecturer was funny bringing her glass of water with a slice of lemon to class. The lecture theatre is named as Chapman lec theatre. Funny name... I was so sleepy, trying to stay awake for the whole hour. Really tired sia, not enough slp.

Ok, the things settled are my Student ID card which hehe...looks ok lah. Not bad lah, first time i m satisfied with such student card.Another thing settled is my timetable. Haiz, i did my enrolment online and was at it for 2 hours. very confusing.... Wat's more is that i had to arrange my time table and the good slots are being taken up by kia su ppl liao. So , in conclusion, my schooling days are Mon, Tue and thur. The stupid thing is mon, i have a 9am class and then the next one is only at 1pm. 3 hours break, not sure if i wanna come home first anot. Then, thur only have 2 hour class. Very dangerours leh, coz is only 2 hours more tempted to skip. let's see how first loh.

Went shopping alone at Target. Got myself an umbrella, New Idea mag. Saw some cheap deals like, a denim jacket for 25 bucks. Went to the men's section and saw some nice vintage looking shirts,blazors (fav for D.D.) and sweaters. Will bring D.D. down to buy when he comes next month. So, 46 days left and i am missing him greatly then ever.

Nice stroll around adelaide
Monday. 7.11.05 9:03 am
Woke up earling in the morning for uni enrolment at around 7 15 am, which is abt 5 45 am singapore time. Haiz, couldn't slp properly in night b4. Not sure whether is jet lag or worried or sumthing. Accompanied by Grace and my mum, we went to school by bus. As i didnt buy the bus tickets (metrotickets), had to pay cash. Surprisingly, the driver has change ready in the form of tubes, which he presses down for change. Transport in Adelaide is quite ex. The single trip cost $1.60.

The journey to the uni is quite fast ard 20-30 minutes. Well, most of the houses here are pretty short. The morning weather was very cold, hands were freezing, some ppl were wearing gloves. Mayb i should get one. The buildings of the Uni is very unusual. Like the ancient churches, made of bricks. Its very musem like. The place is realy huge, only went to a few buildings.

Had to settle some things, firstly bought my metrotickets. My mum tut the tix can only use once and she bought 40 of them. The tix can be used for ard 10 times and costs $12 each. So the total bill came up to $360, SIAO rite? Then, secondly, went to the bank to open an account. Very slow process and my ATM card have to wait for 1 week to be delivered to my place, unlike singapore which is immediately. Lastly, went to the orientation camp. Was approached by a hong kong gal same course as me but different year. But it was really a conincidence. Really lucky rite? The so-called orientation only lasted for abt 10 mins, the actual enrolment is 2moro. Sian, bluff me come here so early. If not can spend more time wif D.D.

Then, since got nothing else went to the shopping district which is across the street, Rundle St. The stretch is so long until my legs was numb from the walking. There is lot of shops, the clothes are very nice and the people there are friendly. They would ask "how are you?" Not normal in singapore rite? The prices here are scaled widely. There is cheap, middle price and above average expensive. Tink i would save up $ to buy some clothes. Hehe.... mayb once a month reward myself something. While shopping, saw alot of clothes ranging for underwear, tees, shirts and jackets that i am tempted to buy for D.D. Mayb bring him here for shopping.

After 2h hours of shopping, went to have lunch at Hungry Jack's. The funny thing is till now, i haven't seen any Burger King here except the Hungry Jack's which looks so similar to BK. Well, "Since 1971, Australians wanting a "Whopper" have trekked to Hungry Jack's, which has an identical hamburger logo, menu, uniforms and look as the US chain. When Mr Cowin negotiated the right to be the Australian franchisee, the Burger King name was already copyrighted and he went with Hungry Jack's." So, i guess both are similar except tha Hungry Jacks dun serve any fish burgers.

I really miss D.D. Checked my mail n saw an email by my dad. Truely touching, he explained to me yhe sent me here. And he addressed himself as "your loving father". I nearly cried. I tink abt it for sometime and replied to him how i was doing. Different parents have different ways of showing care and love towards their children. Although my dad didnt cry at the airport, i guess he was sad. Hehe....

Guess i will stop here.

Jus arrived in Adelaide
Sunday. 7.10.05 6:36 am
Home Away! Touched down on Adelaide quite early, b4 the scheduled time. Pity that the airport is really small as compared to Changi's one. Had to wait for about an hour at the immigration counter there. They only have about 6 rows of counters serving people and the staff were very strict. They would ask " Did you read the form, do you understand it? Which uni are you studying at and wat course?' However, they seem quite friendly. At the declaring goods counter, wah, they scanned and opened all of my lugguage for illegal goods. I mean, any egg products (Due to Chicken flu thingy) and any diary products. I forgot to declare that i had chocolates wif me( given by brenda). Luckily, they closed one eye that the choco is not from australia. Really strict here.

Ok, the person fetching me had a really small car and my lugguage was alot, so the front person had to carry one of the lugguage for me. Pai sae..

Anyway, my room is pretty good (room no. 2). jus outside of it is the TV room. its like my own TV room. My room also has a door leading to outside. So unpacked my things, actually i finished packing within half an hours.

Met Grace, my dad's fren' daughter. She was also from SP and is older than me by 1 years old. She is really friendly, thereby making me look really quiet and aloof. She has been here for 1/2 a year and has a wide knowledge of matters. She helped me get a pre-paid card for my Hp (which couldnt by used because cannot register on weekends). She has other friends over at Raffles house, 3 of them are malaysians. Don't tink malaysians are stupid and slower than us, coz there is one guy who is only 18 years old taking his 4 year degree here. Smart right. They are really independent, went to the supermarket to stock up on their food. They cook themselves. Wow.... Currently, its still the holidays so there are no meals provided until term starts.

Ah ya, there is alot to sae. Mayb i will save it up for next time. C ya

Last Day to look at you
Friday. 7.8.05 10:51 am
Its my last day b4 i embark on a journey that i feared, "Loneliness". Its like i am going to a different planet. Met up wif Lai man and suryanty for lunch. haiz, as usual, both were late but al least i got to see them. We tokked alot and had a great time laughing and eating and shopping. Then, they went to cut hair at Jean yip. Very ex there, u are paying for the service and chemicals. I wouldn't spend that kind of money. But D.D. was so handsome after the trimming. He had small waves , so korean. Hehe....

Later, went to west mall to meet Qiu mei to get back my tennis racket(lent it to her for half a year liao). Hehe.... So looked different mayb because of her dressing. Keep up the good work. If u have it, flaunt it.

I am touched to have frenz giving me cards and presents and even the unexpected people smsing me blessings. Its truly a blessing to know such good frenz.

I will remember the great times i have had in SIngapore. Wish me lucks!

2 days left
Thursday. 7.7.05 11:01 am
I will miss Singapore, its local delicacies, people especially my friends, um family and most importantly, D.D. These few daes you have been very good to me, mayb because i m leaving soon. I appreciate you being my ATM (haha) , emotional support (pillar of strength) and pillow (can hug). Luckily, you can go find me (guys enlisting soon may not be able to go abroad 1 month b4 enlistment date). If not, i will have to wait very long to see you.I will be counting down to the day i see you again. 29 th august.

Went to meet up wif close frenz to watch Fantastic 4. Not bad, i tink those who watched War of the Worlds would prefer watching this. Man, Jessical Albel is hot man. Nice hair, tan , body and feel. Whoohooo! though we only met up for a few hours, had a great time catching up. And dun noe when will be able to see them. When the time comes, you must learn to take it.
