Yay! finally got my internet set-up! the past 10 days have been pretty boring with the world wide web! haha.. anyways, i'll like to start defending adelaide, cuz i really love it here. the weather is soooo much better den s'pore! i'll take cold weather or scorching sun over 100% humidity anytime! hahah.. yeah.. so tho i've said its been boring.. its not so much the city's fault. its juz dat its the exam period rite now, so pple juz hav been stayin indoors studyin! Thus, a bit hard to make more frens or go out with existing ones. Apart from that, adelaide is a very nice place! I like where im stayin rite now, apart frm its costs! esp the cost of doin laundry! and the dryer sucks! so now i handwash my whites. The best thing abt my accom is that it has a good mix of international students. take my hse for example, im housing with 1 american 1 indian and 1 thai. all guys tho! yeah.. actually i requested for co-ed apartments but they ran out of space so the upgraded me for free to a townhouse with en suite! so now i get my own bathroom and i can walk ard in my boxers like i did in sinagpore! All my hsemates are great, nice peeps, we get along fine. Only prob is the american and his fellow american frens. They always hang out in my living room/kitchen and end up trashing the place. which is extremely inconsiderate! Dan is a nice guy but when he gets together with his fellow exhange students, all hell breaks loose. Its becoming a huge prob becuz, the mess they make really turns me off. So meals have been a prob since i can't or rather won't cook. plus the fridge is completely packed with stuff, so i can only buy dry goods. Hence, i've been eating out 95% of the time which is very taxing on the wallet haha. Thankfuly, their exhange last one sem so they'll be gone in like 20 days! Maybe den will i cook meals on a regular basis.
However, my life in bradford college isn't as ideal as i wished. On my first day, i was stunned to see 99.9% of students being yellow-skin asians!!! I had expected a better mix of international students.. sianz.. in the end.. majority frm mainland china or hk! arrggghhh.. all i hear is mandarin or cantonese! so i was glad i spotted a russian so spoked with him for the 1st day of orientation. He's only 16 la! but i heard there's one china girl who's 15!!! wat r these pple doin in uni at their age! ridiculus! It was only the 3rd and final day of orientation that the 5 s'poreans (includes one m'sian who studied in spore) finally serendipitously bunped into one another! haha.. u hav no idea how high-spirited i was that day... unfortunately, none of them r in my class! damn suay la.. stucked with the china and hk pple. haiz... nvr mind.. maybe dat'll aid my studying, less distracted in class.. so far my teachers have been good.. except my stats tutor! he cannot teach! hopefully my econs tutor will not be like him! will find out tmr... So far so wasted.. the gd teachers all teach the subjs i do not need help in.. oh wells...
ok gotta whip up dinner! ciao
