my first post!

hey pple!! say that i am low tech?? HAHA!! HERE'S COMES MY BLOG!! excited ?? read on..

Firstly, i wanna thank so many people who came down to the airport to send me off! and thank people who sent me smses to wish me bonvayage etc.. N thank all those who gave me small random gifts because i came here for those who din come down, please do not feel bad cuz i feel so bad that people actually came all the way down to send me. I appreciate it a lot. I have to say YOU ALL MADE IT REALLY DIFFICULT for me to leave Singapore .. I was already apprehensive about leaving. But YOU ALL made it HEART-WRENCHING for me.. Well, i guess i will slowly get use to the life here.

well, i set up this blog to update u all about my life here.. So here's what i've got..

Firstly, I got onto the plane n was rather emo.. but i was tired so slept quite a bit. hm i reached darwin in the morning n then to sydney. after which, i took a bus from sydney to canberra.. Long hor?? i budget ma.. Anyway, i was super emo when i was on the bus....

I guess cause it was a rainy day. N u all know i get emo when it's a rainy day. Well, i always feel like singing but guess my new frenz will think that i am strange. so i listen to my ipod n continue to feel emo.

Well, the bus was relaxing as i din have to drag so much stuff already. i was comfortably sitted with

emo music. The view was so calming.. Now i know why they say australia is such a laid-back country cuz the view really made me laid back on the bus. Btw, those small black dots in the pictures are cows.i saw plenty along the journey. some were close-up but i din not take any picture of them cuz like i said, i was still quite emo.

Well another picture i took along the way.

The stretch of sand was like an orange highlighter. Hm i reached canberra in the evening.. it was 15 degrees ok!! haha. i really like the weather here!! It's so cool. just like me... afternoon it'll be ard 21 degrees. well, i went to slp cuz i was really tired. kk enough of emo-ness.

WELL, it was my first day in canberra!! i was quite excited about walking around. i was prepred to embrace the second most boring city in aust after darwin. I must say it is quite relaxing here. no bustle, no crowds, in fact no people if u r not in the city. there are nice little cafes around. well, the coffee here are really nice!!! they are cheaper than singapore. down the bend ,there will be a quaint little cafe. i can imagine myself sitting there with a book in my hand and a latte looking both intelligent and lazy. here's my first meal of the day:

look at the latte there. it's 3 dollars n i say it's cheap. not only because it tastes better coffee bean, but it's relative to the other food. the sandwich here 8 dollars. n it's one of the cheapest place ard cuz it's beside my school. i am so dead, broke, and skinny. i have been hunting for cheap food but to no avail. guess i will have to cook but i feel quite paiseh to go down to the kitchen at level 1 cuz i dunno anybody in my hall yet!! i was so busy that i cant attend any of their activities and i got sick yesterday .. i must admit i finally got internet access yesterday n i was super excited but i could not contact u all online cuz i was too sick. now feeling better but still sick. hai poor thing hor??

Oh forgot to show u all my room... check it out:

i sort of like my room cuz it's rather spacious. i got my study table n a basin. however, i dun have air con here n the furnitures r a little old. still, i like my room and will make it a COMFORTABLE place to stay in. oh u r looking at my silk quilt from china with a cool cover (made by hui quan's mum). Thx aunty!!!

Here's my school area with ME!!!

jumping shot: influence from GLC ,my frenz think i am crazy.. oh it rhymes.. BTW, i feel so broke cuz the stuff here are really ex.. n i have to buy lots of random stuff.. oh, btw my internet and phone here are expensive. so i wun b uploading my ubin trip with 03s02 and airport farewell pics on fb yet. i will do it in sch. erm sch internet is not unlimited btw..

More updates coming up later when i am free.. really busy!! oh btw time here is 3 hrs later than singapore. so i may not appear on msn after 10 pm sing cuz it'll b 1 am canberra already.. u all c huh. dun complain i dun go online ok! check my blog!! haha.
