Hei guys, its been a long time since i've written anything here.
Well just for some updates, i'm actually currently in Australia doing my Practical Exams. Its been 5 days since landing, and things have gone pretty well.
I'm here with a bunch of friends, 8 of them including me, we landed in Brisbane from Singapore from KL if you can decipher that! The flight was OK! But running on an economy class causes your back to ache and having someone as big as me cramped in the middle of my Arabian friend, Adil, and an unknown lady,"someone", it gets worst!
First day in brisbane was nice, the weather was COOLING, about 22 degrees and less than 20 at night. But the sucky part was having to sleep in backpackers with other people I don't know. Well if those were friendly people, i wouldn't mind any BIT! Call it something or anything! I had some annoyed australian in my room! Anyway, forget that part.
On the 24th of September, we checked out from Bunk Backpackers in Brisbane, hired a taxi and payed AUD37 for a full trip to USQ university doorstep. Oh yeah, forgot to mention that food here is pretty expensive, and the water was like gold for the 8 of us! Thanks to the lack of H2O I had some nasty infection and fever for the next 2 days.
By the way, the people in USQ are pretty nice, its quite surprising that their culture is totally opposite of ours, you have married adults aged 40+ doing their degrees, and those are people who really work in their related field, unlike us malaysians that have to make do with "technicians" with "degree" holders!
Next up is the study schedule, the first 2 days of official practical stuff was on Monday and spans out for 5 days. First and second day was like "hell"?? if the term is suitable, we have to wake up at 0600 hrs everyday just to get bfast and lunch (you have to pack for lunch yourself), attend the class at 8am, have a break at 12 till 1, another break at 5 - 6 and back to the hostel by 10pm...yes whole day of practical stuff!!!!
Anyway, i'm tired now, need a rest, its 9am and i've just finished a presentation!
well that's for now.....see ya later!!!!
