finally a completed masterpiece after months of contemplating whether or not 2 start a blog (paaranoia, unfounded fears of Monash's IT policy n laziness has indeed hampered da initiative 2 get dis site started) yes, i procrastinate..( who doesn't?) hmm..y? y in da world did i start dis blog in da 1st place? duno ler. initial reasons would b 2 keep some sort of diary of my xperiences (wat better place 2 start than Melbourne) guess i'm drawn 2 it after looking at eve's, lishun's n thom's blogs..(blogging is not usually wat i do..i dun like telling ppl bout wat i think or wat i do..duno y..ony God knows..
so cold..showers forecasted 4 da next 3 days..I'm F-R-EEEZZZZ-ING..y da heck is Australian winter in June..exam time summore..darn, time 4 winter shopping (sigh, sumthing girls luv doin which i find boring..mayb shd start looking 4 any research published on the phenomenon of 'Y females luv shopping..?' watever enthusiasm n despair xperienced when i 1st touched down (yes i didnt sleep at all during da 7 hour nite flight, yes i oso felt homesick initially - yes, i miss my Kuantan buddies n da IMU folks) would haf evaporated by now..
flashback 2 memories of Philip Island Medical Students Transition Camp (OMG penguins!! kena scolded by dad 4 spending AUD20 2 c them when u can't even take photos of them..apparently, penguins r afraid of camera flashes..hmm..interesting..either dats true or its another one of sum crappy law down under..) it was a moment of a lifetime man..made new frenz..
Australia has indeed been an eye-opener 2 me in a bittersweet way.. Monash is a huge university (as big as, if not bigger than UM)..crap, classes 8 til 5 almost everyday n haf 2 walk 15-20 minits from Halls 2 lecture theatre.. yes, i know bout me appearing in da local papers..(lishun posted it on imucampus.com) wah...feeling so happy, one dream has come true (one of my lifelong ambitions, 2 appear in newspaper 4 some academic achievement ie SPM or A-Levels..dis wil make up 4 da disastrous humbling of 2003 n 2005 i guess..though Renard referred 2 it as cheap publicity) darn..being shot down..dats not very nice..(but i know him 4 so long dy since Form 2 so we juz go around jokingly insulting one another)..speaking of shooting down..i guess u never know where ppl r gonna offend u..an xpression of my enthusiasm 4 learning new languages got 'poured cold water at'..a statement i made which turned out 2 b wrong (turns out watching TV has its benefits 2 keep in touch wif da latest ads) got corrected, both in a sarcastic manner from da way i c it..mayb its human nature which i can't change..mayb it was meant 2 b a joke..there r positives which can b taken out of it, but i juz dun feel da same anymore when i hang around wif these ppl next time..mayb i'm easily offended by petty remarks..well, time down here plus attending cell groups down here might gif me opportunities 2 change 4 da better on dat..wil it work? ony time wil tell..
