Hello From Aussie
Hey,MK here...~~ Currently in Aussie.. my flight was cool..~ haha.. But could not get much sleep during the flight.. Also, during the flight, I managed to watch the movie "The Secret" And wow..~~ the movie was good.... well.. mostly was the Music was good.. I am hoping i can get my hands on the music.
Day 1,[ARRIVAL]
The moment I arrived at Melbourne airport.. I was stopped at the immigration... At first, I was stunned.. but later on i realised that they needed me to check on my visa(cause I did my visa manually). After checking my visa, I continued towards the baggage claim area.. guess what i saw? A cute dog.. haha.. not the normal police sniffing dog u always see in TV....
Upon reaching the "meeting point", I saw a number of students going to Monash(well other campuses). upon checking my paperwork, the person assigned to pick up students that day took me and another guy to his car.. well it was fast.. cause Eunice and Jun Eu were left behind for quite some time I heard.. haha.. When I reached the car, I was shocked.. haha.. It was a 7 Series BMW... haha.. There I thought wow..~! All students get to arrive in style? haha..
Later on, we were told that we were the lucky people for the person who picked us up was just doing a favour to his friend.. Owh yess.. the other person with me was Lugi, who is heading towards berwick..After obtaining the keys for my accomodation, we parted ways... Since it was still early, I roamed around the campus on my own to find out where are the buildings and departments... At night, there was a gathering of neighbours.. where I met a few neighbours.
Day 2,[REGISTRATION]
My registration time was about 1.45, luckily did not wake up late.. instead, I went there a little early.. So i began my process for registration. It took me almost 2 to 3 hours to complete what I was supposed to do that day.. due to the fact that there were complications which stated that I was still enrolled in malaysia which I was certain I wasn't.. So it took quite a while.. Apparently I wasnt the only person who encountered that complications.. but all malaysian transfer students..
After registration, I went to obtain my new Aussie Hp number.. Also, went shopping for some stuff to eat. Owh yes, now there were 4 people in the house including me.. once my internet connection is up, I will post a few pics of them.
Day 3,[BORED]
Yes.. That day I completely forgot what I did.. but if I did not make a mistake.. Went for lunch, shop, create account... and back home.. Did not do much that day.
Day 4,[THE CITY]
The city was big..~~ and completely packed with people at all times.. unlike in KL. Here, there were always lots of people walking about in the streets.. There were 5 train stations there.. I stopped at the 1st station, Flinders Street(lowest to the city). From there, I roamed and got lost in the city.. haha..~~ I managed to walk up to the 4th station located at the other end of the city. There I walked about 1 to 2 hours before leaving back.. Well.. been rather tired.. Owh yess.. I finally bought a pillow..
Also, I met up with Marie here.. and she drives a car.. forgot what car it was.. she took me to chadstone to do a little shopping... and wow.. the place is rather nice.. more like a supermarket and 1U put together..
That night I cooked Porridge with baked beans and chicken. Well, it was supposed to be rice with baked beans and chicken but my rice became porridge.. haha..~~ That night I could sleeep soo weell..haha..!!
Day 5,[CITY WITH HOUSEMATES]
Went to the city with 2 of my housemates, One from Hong Kong and the other from Malaysia(JB). There, we went to check on the internet packages optus offers.. Also we went shopping for food.. haha.. That night we cooked vegetables, rice, eggs and the ate the leftover chicken from the day b4.. Well, the update is all words.. but soon when my internet is up, I would post some pics..
Anyways till then,
~MK~
