i'm back again, finally u say

Hi everyone…

Haha… pai seh, its been a while since I update, nth much its just that I’m lazy to write and nth of interest happen. I’m jus writing now coz I think it’s a good exercise to let pple knows whats gg on here.

First and most impt, I have internet access finally… haha, why I never update my blog is also becoz I busy surfing the web. They have no unlimited broadband here thou, which is kinda weird, they have some limit like 60GB a mth, but that’s with a fixed phone line, currently using a 4GB/mth plan which cost a whopping $49. The roomies are getting better as in cleaner after they have been fined a few times. Met some of my ARMY friends here… its really a small world huh… know some guys and gals living ard the area and got to know some more pple in lecture.

The life here is boring, I know I know, u all think aussie is gd life, but not here man, everything closes at ard 5-6 and doesn’t open on Sunday… its like a ghost town at night and the night is seriously dark. Oh oh… daylight saving has ended here, so we’re back to the normal timing, which is the same as sg.

Hmm.. what else to talk abt… oh, lets talk abt the transport system, the bus follows a timetable!!! The bus is mostly on time and if they are early they wait at the bus stop. The frequency of the bus is a killer man, before 5pm its like once every 30 mins and after 5pm its like once a hr… I know. I waited for it before… their train system is kinda cool also, they are using something like the ezlink but their security is slack, u can jus use the train without paying coz theres like no barrier to block u, its like they trust you to pay ur own fare. And some of the stops the doors doesn’t open auto, u have to push a button for it to open.

Oh the part time pay is not that bad, from what I heard, mac is offering like 16.50 and hr… that’s like wow compared to sg. Oh yah, bad news, my PSP charger died on me… horrible man… without my psp charges, the nights were intolerable, luckily my friend also had psp so managed to charge a little. Also discovered the public library so I did some reading--- not studying….haha

In terms of food, it really sucks here lor, cant … never … impossible to compare to sg food, I had to make do with lots of chill and Tabasco sauce but also I think my taste has been ruined all my food is coated with sauces to mask my cooking haha…

Okie that’s all for now… guys update ur blog so I can know whats gg on… I will try to update mine also…

cheers
