The Heart of Melbourne

I will need to take around an hour tram to come to the city.The city is really very beautiful and nice.The design of each building is so unique that i just feel like taking a picture of everyone of them.


I do not know what building was that but it is very nice and I love it.Beside me is Mindy and her sister(I forget her sister's name only meet her ones).


Behind me is an Information Building where you can go in and ask anything you want about Victoria.Just imagine how big and nice it is if you want to comapare the one in Malaysia..haha


This is the Victoria State Library and my statue will be replacing it five years from now stating - "EVAN ALMIGHTY"..haha

Orientation in Swinburne Australia Feb 2008

Here is some photo of the orientation.As it is the orientation week,there was free lunch every day throughout the week and dinner on Friday.The food was wonderful. There was like Indian food,burgers and hotdogs,pizza,baked potato,paste and cheese cakes etc.I missed some of them as I got classes or I did not know.But over all I have been having free lunch for these two weeks.It was so cool and so much more better than the Sarawak Campus's orientation.

This is given by a bank called "Commonwealth Bank"...Looks cute leh..haha.

There was some music going on during the orientation.I am not sure what music was that but it was nice the rythem was harmony and wonderful.I love them.

There is me,Raymond,Karen(white) and Mindy(blue).We are all from the Student Exchange Programme.One more is Anthony which is not in the picture.

The Differences

There is really a big differences between Malaysia and Australia.And I am here to share with you people about them.First will be the transportation system.The tram,train and bus here is so convent.As you can just go almost anywhere you want by first purchasing the tram card.It is really very good as I will need to walk for 10mins and take 3 trams to reach my university.So that will cost me around an hour to directly reach Swinburne.

2nd is about the enrollment.It only takes me 15mins to enroll myself into my course and only 3mins to get my student ID done.But what is the case in the Sarawak Campus?Is awful man.It takes you hour for the enrollment and takes you two weeks to get your student ID and with the stupid validated sticker on it done.

Now is about the class room and facilities.The class room is big and nice with high-Tech stuff and of cause the facilities are so much more better than the one compared in the Sarawak Campus.Each course is having their own building and there is another 4stories of library as there is around 15K of students(total of 3campus).The other 2 campus is quite far from here.What I am happy about is that they have what a university needs.But the Sarawak campus is just a small building and they still call themselves a UNIVERSITY.What a joke man..Haha

The Lecturers here are good as well(at the moment).Now this thing is where we Malaysians can beat them.That is the food.The food here is so expensive.It will cost you at least 8AD for me meal,which is around RM24.But it is quite cheap if you would have to buy fresh food and cook them yourselves.

Oh ya,the weather here is of cause very nice in the day with around 22-25.But it is very cold in the night where I need to wear my jeans to keep myself warm or I will be freeze to death.

Here I am

I am now in Melbourne,Australia...Haha.There is just too many things to say on how the things are over here.I will be having my Internet connection by next time,and I will upload phots and tell you more about the life here.So far it is very nice here and the people here are still okay to me(there are not that racist as I thought)and I hope that it will carry on. I do have a lot of things to say and share with you guys but I just do not know where can I start from.So I think I will start from the photos taken and it will be more intresting. It is very cold her in the morning and when it rain. The lowest temperature I ever experience was 14C. I know what Ivan is going to say,but I think you can keep it to yourself..Haha.. I will need to buy a winter clothing as it will be cold.Hope that it wont be 2 expensive.

Below are my address and contact number.But I think it will be cheaper for you guys to message my 016 number and I will reply you with my aust number.

10 Midvale Avenue, Balwyn North.3104,VIC.Australia.

Will update more in future.
God bless everyone.

The Biggest Mistake

Haiz...I can never believe this happening to me.But before I continue saying things I would just like to share something with everybody,that is I never like sitting on planes.This is because I can never forget my first time sitting on the plane.I remember I was around 10years old when I first get on to the plane.It was a bad one,me and my bro(Ivan) was nausea for at least 5 hours after the flight.Since then I build up a fobia on plane.

Okay,so here goes the story.Before flying off from Penang.My mum is reminding me that I need to talk a aerotrain to KLIA after coming down from the plane.So after arriving at KLIA(which I am actually on the place where I need to be,all I need is to take a lift to the 5th floor) I start searchng for a place for me to take a train.So I asked a Malay girl at the counter and she pointed me to the lift,I asked her again that I want to sit an International flight and she said "yaya".So I saw a sign saying that "KLIA Express at G Floor",so I went to the ground floor and sat the train and left for KL sentral which is a totally wrong place.This mistake cost me RM70.After realizing my mistake I quickly rush back to KLIA.Making alot of calls and prayers on the way hoping that I will not missed my flight.But unfortunaly the time I reached there,the counter was already closed.I tried talking and asking for mercy,but end up what I get was a 'NO'.

Wah,it was a panic and stress time.After I know that I can't get on to the plane,I really feel like crying.It was such a big mistake,how can I do such a mistake.Costing me all this trouble and disaster.

So you guys must be guessing where am I now.I am now in Nilai College with my bro(Shaun).Will be staying here until Sunday(Had changed my flight to Sunday).It cost me a penalty of RM200,it can actually be more but thank God that it was not more than that.

Please keep me in prayers and no problems will happen again while I am in Sydney airport as I have a transit at Sydney airort to Melbourne.Hope that my luggage can also safely go through the custom.
