The great thing about having the net is that I get to talk to lizzie a lot more.? It helps, I suppose, to be able to chat with her any time of the day – I look up from my books and onto my compter screen and there she is.? But when she says “see […]
Now, if you know me well enough you’d know how much of a greenie I am – and Sydney is greenie heaven!? I don’t have my time to type this post, but the gist of it is that I’ve seen so many Toyota Priuses rolling around the city and it brings such joy to my […]
About 15 of us from Xen went to watch?a midnight movie, 300, on saturday night. The movie is inspired by the graphic novel by Frank Miller and its about the battle of Thermopylae where King Leonidas and 300 Spartan soldiers fought to their death against the huge Persian amry led by Xerxes. I must say […]
At 12.10pm today, there was suddenly a commotion in my office. As my room was tucked away at one corner while the rest of my colleagues’ rooms?were at the other end, I was quite oblivious to what was going on. All I heard were my colleague’s voices (and mind you my dept is an all […]
I realise that I haven’t updated in some time but I’ve been busy. The medicine programme in UNSW is seriously no walk in the park. It’s only been a week plus and I find myself up to my nose in work. Get this, on Thursday I was suddenly bombarded with a group project and an […]

Surprise, surprise!? I didn’t move today.? We managed to get the 2 bedroom apartment which means that our original bank cheque had to be changed.? That just meant that we’d have to spend more time at the bank while slow old Michele helped us with it, not to mention the additional $35 admin fee.? I […]
Today was really one of the more trying days, certainly not the worst, but bad enough.? First, lessons started proper today?and I didn’t know where my first class was.? To make matters worse, I reached the university only 5 minutes before class started and had to run to the library to check my timetable – […]
Well, it’s Monday and I’m still not in my new apartment yet.? I missed my appointment with the housing office this morning and they’re very very busy so now I can only move on Wednesday.? It’s a small hiccup, but I think it’ll be fine.? It was mildly irritating though, the housing office called this […]
It’s been about a week since I left Singapore for Sydney and things are still looking good.? I have some good news – I’ve managed to find permanent accommodation!? It’s along High Street, which is just next door to my faculty’s building.? Literally, next door.? Unfortunately, though, I’ve been evicted from the lodge I’ve been […]
