*!!*BOOM*!!*
I'm a natural time-bomb,potentially destructive and definitely dangerous to myself.
I've been back here in Australia for 3 weeks already;
Will be here for another approx. 3.5 months;
Have been here for 6 months today.
So, moment of reflection...what have I learnt so far? What experiences have I gained which would definitely constitute as advice for my fellow friends in the near future?
1) Make sure you don't get addicted to serial tv shows because it'd cause a kink in your schedule which would ultimately take MONTHS to unravel and smoothen out.
2) Be prepared for the weather in whatever country you're planning to study in. DO NOT rely on the marine courier to bring your essentials here.You'll suffer.
3)If possible (unless your a hardheaded intelligent Type A person who really don't need familiar companionship) try going to some foreign place where you have friends. Make the initial few months in your new home more comfy and less daunting.
4) Whenever possible, try not to think of back home. Missing something/someone/some place/some food you KNOW and am PAINFULLY aware that you CAN'T get just kills more neurons in your already shrinking brain.
5) Get into the studying habit as soon as possible or else life WILL be hell approaching the finals.
I've been back here in aus for just over 3 weeks. And what have I done right?
1) Printed out all my notes.
2) Gotten my schedule and venues right to ensure no more delayed entries to lectures.
3) Made new friends. (new NEW friends...as in not just asian friends (which btw, I still hv vy few of)..but new different nationalities new friends)

oo!! For the random thought, I might have to finish 2 cartons of Maggie Mee Curry in a span of 3.5 months before it expires...mom said I could just sell them to other curry-loving people...say...5 packets for $2. But I'll need a marketting person for that.so..I guess i gotta finish 2 cartons of maggi mee in a span of 3.5 months!
oh yea, and for those loyal friends who have made time to even bother visiting this blog..please say hi in the chatterbox..it looks pathetically short and..pathetic..kinda like what I'm feeling right now.
Gotta go wash my hair (which might probably be the only physical aspect of me that is shining).
