in Adelaide (the continue)

ok..i'm back again...i'm in my sch library now..very little ppl...think maybe bcoz of sch holiday now..ok..where did i stop tat day?
oh yah the chinatown thingy...when i reached my hostel it's abt 8pm+..u noe wat in adelaide the sky getting dark at ard 5pm+..

The next day morning i went to the arrival briefing conducted by the international student center..talked alot abt the sch and brought us for the campus tour...i can tell tis uni is smaller than NP..but all the buildings here are soooooooo old...i heard frm one of the senior said uni of adelaide is abt 130 year-old!! wow...tat's old..
After the campus tour, unbelievable the ISC prepared free lunch for us...it was BBQ sausages..mmmhh!! during the bbq i met some ppl frm differrents countries..they were german, sri lankans, indians, chinese and etc etc...i met quite a number of m'sians and s'poreans there..tis uni looks more like a asian uni than a aussie uni...coz there are a lot of aisans here..

After the free lunch i attended few seminars conducted by the ISC..such as getting well wif uni environment, how to enrol, managing ur money and etc..why i never seen tis kind of seminar being hold in NP? .......=During the evening i went out wif some of the m'sians frens to the nearby so call shopping district..i bought some breakfast over there....everything are so expensive here..i intended to buy a hungry jack meal for dinner but i walked out of the stall once i saw the price tack at A$6 min(RM18)...i can't spend tis kind of money anymore if i'm gg to reducese my dad burden..so i went into a market and bought a sandwich at A$3.50(RM10.50)..the portion was quite big so i dun mind spending it although it was quite expensive.

On the 14th jul..as usual i attended all the seminars hold by the ISC...and i didn't eat my lunch coz i duno wat to eat...so went to open an bank acc in my campus...i opened 2 bank acc...one is Freedom Student Acc another one is Power saver acc...why? coz the bank staff said power saver will giv me 4% interest each month instead of the student acc only give abt 0.2% per month....so i devided my money into half and do some "investment" ahahaha...who knows..i maybe no need to work parttime if i earn enough interests..hehehe..
Then i went back to the welcome center again to join the suburban shopping trip...can't believe it..it took 45min to reach there frm the city. When i reached there..u will not believe ur eyes...coz the ppl in the mall is much much crowded than the city area...the mall was like the KLCC and mid valley shopping mall...i still dun understand...maybe it's very near to housing estate...maybe...
Yesterday i finally spoiled myself a bit by buying a dinner frm a chinatown restaurant...the friedrice costed me abt A$5.50...and the portion was so big untill i can't finish it..and i took another half for my supper or breakfast...i was so happy when i eating tat fried rice...u noe wat? the nite b4 i was having corn flakes for my dinner....*sob* hahaha!! it's ok...it's ok..

ok..it's 11.42am now...i have another seminar at 12pm later...i hav to go now...come to here again when i'm free...
Today finally i managed to call my cousin who oso study in uni of adelaide...he gg to help me to move some of my stuff over his place..coz i'll be staying over his hostel next week onwards...i noe it's too far frm the uni (30 min by bus) but no choice loh...coz it's abt A$95 per week(inclusive of electricity and water bills)..better than where i stay now..A$150 per week...haizz...it's reali diffecult to look for accormodation here...oh well...talk again next time...bye

Miss you my sweety pie..*hugz* and *muackz*
