the great happenings

Just putting photos up in no particular order. Just stuff that has been happening these few days.

This week I’ve been at school for orientation. Day 1 was all internationals only. Day 2 we met our Aussie schoolmates. Oh and I can’t say ‘school’ here cos they use that to refer to like high school and things. So I have to say I’m going to Uni. I’m not used to that yet. We were all assigned Mentors who took us round the school and told us where everything was and how the school worked. There’s like this like club place in school called the Tavern where all the parties happen. It’s really cool. And can I just say, in a totally UNBIASED opinion, MY SCHOOL IS SO SO SO SO PRETTY. There are lot’s of old buildings that have a lot of character. Walking to school is so lovely.

Day 3 was enrollment of classes. We got our student ID too. Had to take your photo at this make shirt booth then they print it out immediately for you. But I have to say that this photo is probably the only decent photo of me on any sort of identification. You know how your EZlink, IC and passport photos always end up very fugly looking. haha. After all that we headed to Aunty Iris’ house (Greg’s aunt) to meet for dinner. She’s really nice and generous and kind, I can say all sorts of nice things bout her. After hanging out for quite a bit we headed back for Aunty B’s (Mum’s ex SA schoolmate who’s daughter is also here) to stay the night.

Today was a free day. Met up with Greg again and he took us shopping. HE’S REALLY HELPFUL. Like really. I needed a jacket and sweat pants and he went round the store looking for them and came back with great stuff. AND while Cheryl was in the changing room he went around looking for boots for her. Very efficient please. All guys should be like him. hahaha. We had a lot of fun today. Tuesday we’re going to watch The Dark Knight! He’s going to drive us in his very OLD cheapo car. But I won’t complain if we’re getting driven. heh.

It’s 2am AGAIN. 2 round of pictures in next post. I DON’T CARE, DON’T WANT TO WAIT ANYMORE. And I don’t know how to use this system to upload. Oh well.

Lights out
