Believvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvve! See your size already know la.
Cheh! No fun one.
Ahahah! But like for real, I DID finish a whole pizza by myself. Sigh, Lesley Woon u can go and die now.
Last night, dinner was terrible. It was steamed fish with lemon. I didnt even finish it. Usually I love steamed fish coz my family like totally specializes in steaming fish but campus fish is shit.
Fish sucked, potato sucked, choco mousse sucked.
After dinner, Callie, Jodi and I went to the computer room. Then Jodi asked if we wanna get pizza. I'm like ok fine. One piece wont hurt after that sucky dinner.
They ordered the pizza and I just wait and pay for my share. When Callie told me it was 9 bucks, I thought it is very expensive esp when you share it among 4 people. Which means it's 36 dollars for a pizza. Wow.
And we had to stand outside the college to wait for the delivery guy. In the freezing cold night. Useless.
I only knew they ordered 4 pizzas when the guy arrived. One for each of us. We sat in the common room watching TV and the movie Enchanted. So I was just sitting there on the sofa like a Mister Potato and stuffing my face.
My tummy is still bloated from that pizza now. I am 5 months pregnant with pizza.
********************
I did my own laundry today! For the first time in my whole life. I didnt want to spend 8 dollars to wash my clothes 2 times just because I want to separate it into colours and whites (but I can spend 9 dollars on a pizza). So I just threw everything in the washing machine and have them rinsed with cold water.
Luckily, none of my white shirts turned pink.
*wipes sweat*
Later, I'm gonna tie my hair up into a bun, turn into a auntie and iron my clothes.

Service Management MGMT112 is so borrrrrring! I wanted to shoot myself during the class just to get it over and done with.
I was absent for most of my class last week rite? And the lecturer of ISYS123 told me to read Chap 5,6 and 7. This was 5 days ago. Now I am still in Chap 6. Like no wonder, no matter how many times I read the passage I couldnt get the info into my head. Coz he hasnt taught us that far yet!! It was only today he touched on Chap 6. Geramnya!!! Waste my time.
Although I hate reading ISYS123, that's the only class so far where I felt time reli flies by as opposed to MGMT112.
I want to quickly go for industry training!!

I like totally spend some money agn :(
Ahahaha, so chibai bimbo blonde also the title.
I just wanted to get some files from Humphrey's today but on the way, I went back to the store where I got my white shirt from and came out with 2 dresses. Like OMG! $50. But they are SO gorgeous.
Then only I went to Humphrey's. They have like this clearance stock corner where they just sell any random things for a discounted price and they have files in there today! Each file onli costed me $1.50 and I bought a book for $3 as well. Bad thing is that I saw a name keychain with my name on it. Ahhhhhhhhhhhh!! It's the CORRECT spelling somemore worrrr. Very hard to find one ok. Usually it always Leslie, Lesly and fuck fuck fuck. Roar!
Opps. Another $8.95 gone liddat.
Jeezzzzzzz, when can I work agn? If I work, it means I prolly will have no time to go shopping. So I don't spend any money. And when I work, I earn money.
No money out + money earned = more money at hand.

Sometimes...
It still hasn't sink in yet that I'm in Sydney, Australia already you know.
Like when I lay on my bed and see all my belongings, I think I'm still in my own room. Then I get up and look out the window to be greeted by a gorgeous view of the beautiful ocean and weather.
Yes, it seems I'm in Aus.
I walk down to the Corso and see all the people.
Yes, I am in Sydney. *smiles*

I have so much fun shopping today!
Here's my actual shopping list:
1) Buy a pair of black flats (preferably from Payless coz they are cheaper)
2) 3 document files
3) Dividers
4) Socks
5) White shirts/ black pants
6) Get the Apple Ipod brochure
7) Shoe organiser
8) Small notepads
And here is what I end up with.
1) A mustard coloured bag which I can bring to my lessons coz I dont have a proper bag like, I once carried my current bag which is more like a beach bag to class. Kasih malu yo. $30.
2) 2 pairs of flats. One black and one tan. And they are only $20 for 2 pairs. *tears of joy*
3) A PJ from Target. $10. The PJ is so nice I tell you. It consists of a singlet and short. It's black and lime green. I bought 3 G-strings as well. $21.
4) 4 thongs from Cotton On. $20 only! OMG!!!! *more tears of joy* I'm so happy with this particular purchase coz I NEED G-strings now. With skirts like that for classes, you cannot afford to have any VPL ok.
5) A navy summer dress for $20 also. I wanted to get the red one as well but I think I spent too much oredi.
6) A pair of beach shorts. $9.
7) White shirt and black camisole. $20.
8) And the things on my lists as well except the document files and pants. Sigh...Gotta walk down to the Corso agn tomorrow. ICMS students can get 15% of all stationeries at Humprey's Newsagent. Sweet.
The only reason I stopped shopping was because Warringah Mall closes at 5pm today. If not, hmph! Sure can spend another $200. I have spent so much today but it made me happy. So now I am semangat gao gao to study agn.
But despite all the spending, I did save 60cents. Coz I bought 2 gold kiwis and they are 78 cents each. The cashier thot they are green ones and charged me oni 48 cents each. Ahahha, bodoh!
*******************
We have an Apple store here in Warringah Mall so I went in to ask for the price. It's only AUD$199 for the 8GB ppl! But they DONT have the red ones. The salesgirl told me only the Apple store in the city has the red ones. Fuck ah. So I now must not spend for 2 weeks, must work and then go to the city to buy my baby!! Muahz...

Humph! Tired...
Just came back from my shift tonight. I don't have any shift tomorrow but hopefully they will draw up a schedule so that I know how many hours they need me for. If they need me for less than 20 hrs, I can quickly go find another job right?? I met another few colleagues. 2 are English and a couple of Indians too. Both the English people are crazY!! The guy, Ollie has like a unfinished haircut which stops right in the middle of his head and his hair is NYC taxi cab yellow.
The girl, Janelle has pink and blonde hair with piercings on her face. They were playing around with the chocolate syrup.
Yeah! I shall sleep until 11am tomorrow. Wake up, head down to have my brunch and take the bus to Warringah Mall. I got quite a long shopping list.
What I wear to attend classes. The reason we all have to wear suits is to make us realise and learn how to dress professionally when we enter the workforce. Sigh....U think I'll wear like that? No way man..Of coz, I'm gonna throw in some colours and trendy things and NOT tie up my hair coz my hair is FANTABULOUS!
The one with white shirt.
The one with blue shirt.
My stack of Milkyway. Yum yum! I can prolly eat a bar each day. It's only 100 calories hahahaha. Wont bust my limit per day.
***************************
My current playlist:
1) The Script- The Man Who Cant Be Moved. OMGGGGGGGGGGG!! I totally lurve this song. Like I can listen to it on repeat until 50 times.
2) Weezer - Pork and Beans
3) Katy Perry - Hot N Cold
4) Shontelle Layne - T Shirt
Hey guys, any new songs can recommend me? I'll go download it and have a listen.
***************************
Usually after dinner at 6pm on campus, I'll go back to my room, rest, brush my teeth, sort out my stuff and bring my laptop to the study area so I can go online. And in the study area, we have slots for students and usually when I'm there, the China girls are there as well. But they occupied the whole row of hidden slots behind which people cannot see if they enter.
I just sit at the open table. I tell you ah, almost every night you can hear one of them crying in the study area. Like shit man. 2 weeks oredi still cry? I mean I understand why they cry. Miss their family, not used to the environment blablabla I cry before also. Worse than them agn. 6 times in a day. But when they cry, they are making me guilty for NOT crying ok. Like I dont miss my family at all. Sigh.........

I got the job wei. Now hopefully I can keep it.
I am waitressing at Northern Bites, a cafe next to Manly Beach. I went for my 'training' today at 5pm and was allowed to go back at 8pm. There are so many different ppl working there.
In the kitchen, we have a Nepalese and another Caucasian whom I think is definitely not from US, UK or Aus. He's from somewhere in South America. And when I started, there's another girl who came in for her first day as well. She's a Brazilian. Her name is Ananda. And there are quite a few Indian guys working there. Rahid, Deep (he say deep as the ocean, deep into ur eyes wtf).
You see, the thing about being overseas is that almost everyone is SO friendly. I was just in the cafe for 3 hours and all of us are talking like good friends. Joking and fooling around.
The rate is supposedly AUD$12 per hour. However, Ananda told me here in Manly, a waitress can earn up to AUD$20-25 per hour depending on how long you have been working there. But the usual lowest wage is prolly AUD$12 per hour and if you stay for more than 2 weeks, it goes up to AUD$14 per hour. Good huh? But never mind la. I am just a newbie. Work for 3 months here in Northern Bites and after that, start looking for other opportunities agn lo. Think positive yo.
And the best thing is that, since my employer doesnt employ with tax so we can work as many hours as we want and he gives us cash. Of coz, this is kinda illegal but.....it's good for us students rite. I am planning to work on Thurs night, Friday night, Sat half day and the whole of Sun!! If there are slots for me la...If not, then just Fri, Sat and Sun lor.
After my shift ended, I went to Coles and got some IndoMie agn. I saw they are having a promotion for Milkyway. 4 for $2. How can you NOT buy them?? I bought 8 sticks only coz I have $10 with me only as I didnt go to the ATM. Bummer....I'll go back agn tomorrow.
Coz I went out at 5pm, I missed my dinner. So when I came back, I cooked a packet of noodle and drank apple juice! Yum!! See....this is the kind of dinner all guys are looking for. I make the perfect Indomie + AJ dinner. Muahahhahahh!! If you wan to book me, call I-WANT-TO-MARRY-LESLEY-COZ-SHE-MAKES-THE-BEST-INDOMIE-AJ-DINNER-8888. Thank you sekalian!
I grabbed a bottle of natural mineral water as well. But when I got back and tried to open the cap, fizzy mineral water sprayed across my whole table and body. Chibai! It's carbonated mineral water rupa rupanya!! Why the hell would anyone want carbonated water? Then I have to wipe the whole table and blablabla. Sigh, why my life like that?
*****************************
Oh...and I am gonna buy the new Ipod Nano chromatic. In red colour la duh. I will give my current Ipod to my sis. I wanted to sell it at a very cheap price at first considering it's quite new but my sis wants it so..Everything here in Manly is so expensive, so when an Ipod cost AUD$200++ only, it seems ridiculously cheap. Comes in 8GB agn.
Yeah here I come!

Cacat wei.
I went to see the doctor today. She told me I have an infection on my blister and I am not to walk around anymore! I am to stay in bed for the rest of the week altho she did say if I stop doing some hard-core walks, my feet will be much better. So I am resting as much as possible so that come Thursday night, I can afford to stand and wait tables. Sigh!
I cant even walk down to have my meals so the kitchen workers send them up to my room. Bad service tho! Dinner is served from 5.30pm to 7.00pm. Just now, I called them at 5.45pm. Waited until 6.45pm, my dinner still not yet arrived. So I call again. Baru, they send my dinner up and it wasnt the one I asked for. I wanted cream mushroom pasta and they send tomato chilli pasta wtf!
Sigh. After eating I was still hungry coz I missed both breakfast and lunch so I cooked a packet of Indo Mee to eat heheh.
All that means I have to miss all my lessons as well. For the rest of this week. Luckily, both classes of EVT115 are cancelled for this week. And EVT110 is cancelled this Thurs as well.
I kinda feel like orang cacat le. Just lying in bed all day. I am gonna miss breakfast agn tomoro coz I am not gonna wake up at 7am JUST to have breakfast OK. But I have 2 oranges and 2 pears on my study table now (accumulation over the past few days). I think that's my breakfast for tomorrow.

My feet reli hurt ok.
I have blisters as long as my thumb on my foot sole and it is fucking killing me. I think I wanna go see a doctor.
**************
I might just found a job. Not confirm yet la. The boss has to test me this Thursday night to see if I can get along or not. The restaurant is just 10 minutes walk from my college. I reli hope I get it so that even if I spend, I wont feel guilty.
**************
The classes today were alrite....EVT111: Introduction to Event was fun coz the lecturer is a bubbly middle-aged guy. ISYS123: Information System is not bad too. We have 2 lecturers for ISYS123. The guy teaches us about Word and the gal teaches us abt Excel and Powerpoint. In computer lab today, we learned how to align paragraphs, add header/footer, small caps and blablabla. I'm gonna revise agn later. A-potensi student ok.
The most boring one so far is definitely MGMT***: Service Management coz the guy is a new one? His name is Shackar Blitz but he wants us to call him Shak. Yeah whatever Shak! He has this French/Isreal/Greek accent which is mixed with Aussie accent and it just gets fucking annoying. He just goes on and on and on and on abt service. Doesnt reli interact much.
**************
Oh yeah, I finally managed to get some songs in my Ipod coz I watched the tutorials in apple.com. Sigh. Sohai. And now they have new Ipod!!! Nano-chromatic sumthing rite? Did you see the red Ipod??? Ahhhh, omg! Anyone pls. If you are rich enough, buy me one as a advanced bday pressie plsssssssssssssss!! Ahahha, muka tembok.
Commit suicide mode: ON.

So this means I have 24 hrs of lessons in 5 days. 6 hours straight on Mon, Tues and Wed. 2 hrs on Thur and 4 hrs on Fri. I have to wake up early only on Monday. The remaining 4 days I can slp until latest 9.30am.
Looks like I'll miss my lunch on Tues and Wed. How can liddat one? I paid for them ok.
Are the number of hours too much? Not rite.....If compared to real uni students. I think the hospitality students have it harder. There are 2 days where they have lessons from 10.30am - 7.30pm. In addition to at least 4 hrs on other days. Wow.
Yeah!! Lessons gonna start on Monday!! Finally!
On another note, I think the college is super super strict with stupid rules. Like:
1) Girls with long hair must tie up their hair. And hair must be dry. Wtf?
2) You can oni take off your jacket when you are having a meal. But as soon as you stand up to clear ur table, you must wear your jacket agn. Wah liu..
3) You must wear your uniform in Front of House (which are all the areas potential customers/visitors might be at) from 7.30am to 5.30pm.
Pls dont do this to me in summer. It's getting hotter and hotter by the day.
Sigh! Once agn, lessons are starting!

So this means I have 24 hrs of lessons in 5 days. 6 hours straight on Mon, Tues and Wed. 2 hrs on Thur and 4 hrs on Fri. I have to wake up early only on Monday. The remaining 4 days I can slp until latest 9.30am.
Looks like I'll miss my lunch on Tues and Wed. How can liddat one? I paid for them ok.
Are the number of hours too much? Not rite.....If compared to real uni students. I think the hospitality students have it harder. There are 2 days where they have lessons from 10.30am - 7.30pm. In addition to at least 4 hrs on other days. Wow.
Yeah!! Lessons gonna start on Monday!! Finally!
On another note, I think the college is super super strict with stupid rules. Like:
1) Girls with long hair must tie up their hair. And hair must be dry. Wtf?
2) You can oni take off your jacket when you are having a meal. But as soon as you stand up to clear ur table, you must wear your jacket agn. Wah liu..
3) You must wear your uniform in Front of House (which are all the areas potential customers/visitors might be at) from 7.30am to 5.30pm.
Pls dont do this to me in summer. It's getting hotter and hotter by the day.
Sigh! Once agn, lessons are starting!
Surfing, Sydney, Sadness and Sickness.
Yesterday, we were required to attend the teambuilding and surf safety course. In teambuilding, there were around 100 students and we are divided into groups of freaking animals. Cat, Sheep, Pig, Snake, Horse and Monkey. I was SOOOO lucky I wasnt Pig coz it would just make me feel that much worse. LOL. And you had to find other group members by mimicking the animal that you are. I was a Cat so I have to meow meow to find other members. Wow.
Later in the afternoon at 1.30pm, we went for the surfing. My frens and I wanted to skip it at first coz the water is so going to be fucking cold but in the end, we still joined.
It is sunny but windy.
Manly Beach. Look at the waves.
Us waiting for the wetsuits and shirts.
Before us, there was another group of students from ICMS who went for the surfing. So the wetsuits were WET. But luckily, I found one which is dry while Julie and Simone had to put on wet ones. Poor them.
Wearing the shirts.
Surfing is so much fun!! When you can catch the wave at the right time, it just brings you in so fast!!! But I did get swept away a few times when the waves are TOO big and I didnt prepare to jump. I scraped my knees a few times on the ocean bed and drank so much salt water + seaweed. Honestly, the first time the waves covered me I actually panicked coz I fell under the water but after a couple of times, I kinda got used to it. The 3 of us were like screaming like banshees esp me coz the water is soooo cold.
At the end, almost everyone lined up to do a relay race.
Big waves. It looks small here but when you are in the water, the waves are just so huge that you cant look over the wave. My whole body are now sore from all the surfing and carrying the surfboard. I got small bruises on my inner thighs as well. Hahah.
After I came back from surfing, I found a msg. Jia wei and Lai are in the city and asked me to meet up with them. So after showering and skipping dinner, I took the ferry to the city and meet up with them. We walked thru the city for almost an hour and seriously, I wanted to kill Lai coz he promised good food and when we reach there, it is full and blablabla. I was so hungry! We ended up in Chinatown where I just dont care and bought some hawker food to eat. Both of them bought some food as well and we just sat by the benches and ate.
I was still hungry and we went to a Japanese restaurant and had rice. I forgot abt the portion size in Aus so when the bowl of rice arrived, I was like omg. But still I managed to finish everything. Maybe I have eaten a lil bit too much.
2 and 1/3 faces.
China town.
The Japanese stall which sells seafood balls. They sell so many balls and we had to wait like almost 30 mins just to get 4 balls.
After that, we went for a movie and watched Stepbrothers. Stupid movie. Hahha.
***************
Bad news. My very pretty Japanese friend went back to Japan yesterday coz her mum died. It was so sudden. But she doesnt seem so sad. Maybe she anticipated it. She will come back at the end of this month.
So weird, I was just looking at pictures of her and her mum in Facebook before I heard this news.
**************
I am feeling so ill now. After I had a huge dinner in Sydney, my tummy was kinda upset. I thought it would go away but it continued until this morning. And it still hurts now. I took a antacid tablet just now and it doesnt seem to help.
I went down to Manly to get my uniform altered today. It cost me AUD$100 ok!!!
I picked up some plasters and sunscreen from a chemist as well coz it is starting to get so hot now. It is impossible to get around without sunscreen nowadays.

The past few days.
Orientation is so boring. There's like 1 whole week and each day we are oni required to turn up for 1 or 2 hr. I don't even have to wake up some days coz the program doesnt apply to events students. The earliest I have to wake up so far is 6.30am coz there was a computer induction at 8am. Since it was stated that students had to wear office clothes, this is what I wore for the first day. Damn office lady-like.
Then a few days later, we had a welcoming cocktail party for both students and their frens/family. Since my family are in Brunei, I went there with my frens. The finger foods were reli bad. But then, the buffet dinner was alright.
Here in the picture(Clockwise from top): Tamra, Julie, Naoko, Debra, Simone, Me and Amanda.
Julie, Naoko, Simone and me. Dun ask me why I look pregnant and fat coz I am not pregnant and yes I'm fat.Oh ya, I havent intro right...? Julie is the Taiwanese/Australian girl, Naoko is Japanese duh and Simone is the Portugese/HK girl.
No skills in taking pictures coz I manage to cut half my face off so there you go.
Jodie and I. She's one of the study abroad students from USA.
Kelly. One of my roomates. I made a mistake with her name. It isnt Hallie. It's Kelly. Opps. She reminds me of Tina from the L Word very much!
The ice sculpture which is also our badge.
After the party, most of the students decided to go down to the Shark Bar. Manly is pretty small so I think that's the oni bar we students can go to.
Naoko and I. Hahah.
The very small bar.
You get to play free pingpong wtf.
Jay chatting with Nao. Jay whose full name is Javier is from Sweden. He's 23 I think.
Old school funk.
Jay with some surfer girl. I think she's from USA as well.
There wasnt many ppl dancing at first. But then Chris Brown's Forever came on and everyone rushed to the dance floor. Including me and Nao heheh. But I didnt dance much la. Clubbing meh wtf. I went back to the table after a couple of songs.
Among the people, there is this HK guy who is so fucking obnoxious and embarassing. Lucky he's not my fren. He was dancing reli badly and dirty dancing with the pingpong table and taking off his shirt. Like wtf. U think this is reli clubbing meh?? It's just a small bar ok.
But when the 4 of us decided to go back, he offered to take us too.
I got officially enrolled yesterday and received my textbooks. Total damage: AUD$267. So useless one the textbooks. The thickest, heaviest and most expensive book is this Go Office 2007 which is basically a book to teach us how to use Microsoft Office. AUD$100++ ok!!! And I dun even like to study abt computer. Sigh...The oni proper textbook I can see is that Festival & Special event Management. The book called 'The Professional Waiter' I see already oso want to burn it ah. Waste my money.
The beds of my roommates. Kinda messy rite...
My side of the room. I'm so organised! *kambang*
Oh ya, if you see popoly, that's my panty hanging by the window coz I always wash them by hand and hang them up to dry. It's faster that way. Heheh.

So it's true!!!!!!!!!
That China girls dont shave at all!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
What??!!! You mean you saw IT? Yup! Their armpits......T____________________T
I see already oso dun know how to react ah. Shit.
It was today's business suit fitting. In front of me were these 2 China girls. We girls have a small common fitting area to change our clothes. I saw one of the girls take off her shirt then my eyes terus zero-ed in on her armpits. It was too obvious. How can you miss something like that? SO black and thick.
The hair was almost 2 inches long ok. I AM NOT EXAGGERATING!!!!
It's like they have never shave even once. I have seen most guys' armpits and none has come close to the China girls.
And for us girls, even if we don't shave or wax for 2 weeks or so, the growth is prolly gonna be like half a centimetre at most. But those girls ah....*shakes head*
The other China girl who is prettier has the same armpit hairs too!!!! So chibai annoying ah. Pics to illustrate what I mean.
***********************
They are also so many China and Korean ppl coming in. And fuck like 99.9% of them are freaking rich. Carry LV bags, Gucci bags, Coach bags. Pakai lawa lawa siap dengan high heels and rebonded hair lagi. I saw them walking downhill just now in the morning while I was coming back from my grocery shopping looking like shit. So yeah.
And I made 2 more new frens today. Both are Asian la. Rich one la of coz. One is from Taiwan but she is Australian and her English is so American. Another one is mixed Portugese/HK and she's from Macau. Good fluent English too. Both are 18. Boohoohoo wtf. I am the oldest.
**********************
I have a reli bad feeling this is getting more and more like a prep school. I mean I asked several guys why they chose this college and they told me it's because it's easy to get into and it's expensive. Ya Allah!!!
Nvm.....................You guys play lorrrrr..The more you play, the more chance for me rite? I'll study hard and take all the opportunities I am given. Play more ok ppl.

Where are you from?
I always hesitate to tell people where I am from coz I am a Malaysian but I live in Brunei. If I tell them Brunei, they'll say, "Where? I have never heard of the country."
The day I arrived, I took a taxi to ICMS. The driver asked where I'm from. I said Brunei. Then he went, "Oh, China! Good place". WTF!! I look like I'm from China mah....U didnt dig ur ear issit??
Another reason I hesitate is becoz I heard stories of how foreigners always put little bags of drugs in ur luggage if they know you are a Malaysian. The immigration ppl will catch you and you'll kena hanged for nothing. Scared me leh...
And the Japanese girl actually thought I was Japanese as well. Ahahahahahah...Kawaii neh wtf!! If I reli was a Japanese, I gotta be the ugliest Japanese you have ever seen. No wonder she didnt greet me during the college tour. She told me over dinner that she doesnt like to hang around Japanese/Korean ppl coz they tend to stick to each other and refuse to speak English.
Apparently, half of the students here are Koreans. No idea Koreans are so sibeh rich. But rite now, what I see are Caucasians being the majority here.
Update:
15/09/08
There are a LOT of angmohs coz today is the day all the Study Abroad students arrive. Most of them are Americans. Both my roommates are Americans. They are here for 1 term oni. One is Emily from Kansas and the other is Hallie from Texas. Thank Jebus it's not some China girls. Coz of what I wrote up there. Fucking ewww pls.

I am living on the 3rd floor. And my room is number 333. Add another number of ur choice and go buy 4D or Toto wtf. I am living in triple dorm. My roommates are not here yet. It's good in a
way that I have the whole room by myself. If I fart or snore, no one can smell or hear rite? And surprisingly, I am not afraid at all. At all. Even though the windows make a slight bam bam when the wind blows, I wasnt afraid. I have too many things to worry abt.
Sometimes, I wonder if the admissions officer were just bluffing when they told me there was oni one slot left for the triple dorm so that I would hurry up with my application and money. Wtf.
Well, there is a Korean girl with short hair and chibai face living on the same floor as me. I don't have any internet reception in my room so I have to bring my lappie to a corridor a few rooms outside of mine. I can definitely see anyone coming in or leaving the floor. So this Korean chibai face will always come out her room and use the kitchen. She doesnt greet me at all unlike the angmohs who will always give me a smile or hello!. I know you are rich but don't keh leng keh si over here ok. We are both students here. I oso pay to enter this school ok.
This pretty much sums up my 4 days here. And another thing is that, I hope readers dun find the pity post below as me complaining abt things here. I am very grateful and happy that I am finally here in Sydney. I am just writing abt my feelings and all. I am sorry if the post come off as whiny.

I no longer cry wtf.
Things are getting much better. Yesterday, I got a msg from my dad agn but I didnt cry this time. People are starting to come in and I felt this is more like a college instead of a big building with just me as the only student.
The first thing was a college tour. There were 3 Asians including me. The others was a boy and a girl and the rest all Caucasians. When we had to get our ID cards, some of the angmohs left coz they had to get their ID number. And the Korean boy asked me, 'Whey the rest go?'. I told him they went to get their number and asked if he knew his.
"Ahhh numbah??"
"Yes, ur number. The 5 digit number on your acceptance letter."
"Yes, I know that numbah."
Wtf meh. He's obviously young. But I notice his hands/arms. SO nice ah......Like so muscular and shit. Too bad the Donald Duck figurine hanging from his phone spoiled everything.
I went for the Manly tour today which basically just shows us where to go for certain things. And I made a new friend over dinner just now. She was with me during the College tour and initially I thought she was Korean. I just learned that she is actually Japanese. A rich one timmm.....Her name is Nao. And she's oni 19. She told me her bf lives in the city and she plans to move to the city soon. Ya, me too. Ahahhaah.....Her face is so pretty. Smooth like butter. Big eyes.
One thing I notice is that, there are no blacks in this college. Dunno why. Even though I refer to the past students, none of them are black. Indians got la. But no blacks. Why like this one?? I wan to have a black girl/boy as my fren.
I am a very dirty girl. Coz I oni shower one time a day. Which is in the morning. I am scared to use the bathroom at night ba.
I am glad that I dun feel the same way I did the first day coz it was horrible. Now that more students are coming in, I hope I will make more frens and study hard.
*GAMBATE*

I cry wtf.
Note: This was in draft for 2 days already. Pics at last.
Hey guys. It’s been 2 days since I have arrived here in Sydney. I am not very happy at the moment. ICMS is quite empty at the moment coz it’s holiday and most of the students are not in. I felt so lonely coz there arent any ppl around and I didnt see any familiar faces altho Jia Wei and Lai are here. I didnt look for them.To me, it didnt felt like I was in a college or what. Maybe it’s just the quietness. Tomorrow will be the day new students start checking in. Hopefully, I’ll get to see my roommates soon.
Superwoman super failed. I cried 6 times yesterday and 1 time today. A considerable improvement if you asked me. I didnt want to cry actually but my parents called me 1 hr after I landed. Asked me why didnt I called them coz they were worried abt me.Told me to be careful and this that. I was unpacking at that time. I wanted to finish all the ‘chores’ before I call them. When I was talking to my mum, the tears has already welled up in my eyes but I couldnt cry on the phone. As soon as we hung up, I just burst into tears. After all the sob sob sob, I cleaned up, went down and ask for directions from the receptionist. She gave me directions to go to the Corso which is an area of shops, cafes, banks and bla bla bla. It’s supposedly 5 mins walk there but for me, it’s abt 10-15 mins to reach there coz it’s downhill and my legs are short but 15-20 mins going back to ICMS coz it’s fucking uphill.
I opened a bank account with ANZ and walked about the Corso. Next to the Corso is the Manly Beach. Before I got to Sydney, I thought the Manly Beach is reli 5 mins walk so I was thinking of jogging there. But now, no need la wtf. Just run up and down the hill can oredi. Will die wei...Bought some necessities from Coles, a supermarket. And some fries + nuggets from Hungry Jack’s. The fries + nuggets are still on my table now. I have no appetite at all rite now. Yesterday, I just took a sip of water and a few fries+ 1 nugget. After all the Corso-exploring I went back to ICMS at around 12pm and stayed in my room for the rest of the day and cried. After crying, I took a walk around ICMS and went back to my room agn. There I stayed until the next morning.
I was so tired from all the walking and crying that I slept at around 7pm+. Woke up agn at around 10pm coz I received a msg from my dad. After reading it, I cried agn wtf. Fell asleep a while later. Then it was the next morning. Woke up at about 7am+, slp agn until 9am+. I wanted to lie in bed all day coz although I wasnt tired, my whole body felt tired. I told myself this is no way to spend your day in Sydney. Chin up. I got this phrase from my horoscope reading from a magazine. Yes, chin up. I got up, showered and walked to Manly Wharf. Before I left, I forced myself to eat an apple. Even though I wasnt hungry at all, I know I have to eat something in order to do something. I took the 30 mins ferry to Circular Quay.
There, I reach the city of Sydney. I walked along Park St then I saw Payless Shoes. It was having a sale so I went in and managed to find a pair of sports shoes which is $16 only. Happy! Further down Park St is Woolworths. It’s another supermarket but I think the things are a bit cheaper than here in Manly. Bought a gold kiwifruit and another apple. I walked to Hyde Park and ate my kiwi sitting on a fountain. It was nice and windy. After my ‘lunch’, I walked agn to Market St which houses most of the shopping area. Bought a cute short trench coat for $12.95 only. I looked at my watch and saw that it’s almost 4.30pm. Gotta return before 6pm coz it’ll be dark and I dun want to walk uphill in the dark. I got back at around 5.30pm. I finished my remaining nuggets, unpack all my items and type this post. And oh, I cried 2 times today. I cried agn while typing this post. Sigh...
Here are some pics:
My luggage. See that stack of books beside the luggage? I couldnt bring them..:(
The view from my window.
My triple dorm.
The notice which awaits me on my own notice board.
Manly Beach.
International College of Management, Sydney.
The Manly ferry to the city.
Sydney.
Sydney Opera House. It's much smaller than I expect it to be. Talk abt overrated.
Sydney Harbour Bridge.
Circular Quay. See that stretch of pathway? Walk along it for 5 -7 mins then you'll reach the Sydney Opera House.
