A typical day in Melbourne

This actually happened 2 weeks ago on a Thursday morning.
Wanted to blog about it but have been busy with all the assignments due.

It was a Strike Day that day.. by National Tertiary Education Union.. saying need to increase more staff for the benefits of student, blah blah blah.. but ended up affecting the normal lives of students on that day, apparently..


Well, lecture of Engineering Practice still went on and that's a picture of the type of overhead projector they use, using videocamera instead of light to capture the image of what is gonna be projected..


And it was very foggy that day.. this picture was taken around 9.30am..
if anyone did notice the time stamped on the picture, it's because my phone was still running on Malaysian time, haha


Went into a lift inside the university and even the light of the lift was on strike??
this was how it looked like, going to the 12th floor in a dark lift for the 1st time.. thank God the lift wasn't planning on going on a strike too, haha


then on my way down on another lift whose light was not on strike,
saw this abandoned chair in the corner of the lift..



And off to the place i stay here in Melbourne which i temporary call 'home' i went because the supposedly physics lecture in the afternoon was cancelled because the lecturer joined in the strike -.-

Ads Time!

If you have not seen this before, see it now and be a bit patient at the beginning!


And this!

Gonna mini-blog now....

Yup.. instead of kept waiting to write up one really long post i have decided to just write bit by bit of current status..

the download speed at home can be very fast till 150kb/sec however, the upload speed is ridiculously maximum 20kb/sec.. so slow! even upload pictures onto this blog also take ages!!

these few days getting colder.. morning till early afternoon 12-14 degree Celsius and then afterwards till night it is 7-9 degree Celcius.. but it seems like on thursday the maximum temperature will reach 17..

two assignments due this fri.. no pressure? i'm a well-experienced procrastinator so that is why, i guess.. but gotta change, gotta change..


p.s. hair getting longer. not. gonna. cut.

Finally.... an update!

Well it's almost 2 months now since i first came here. Finally celebrated having internet at my place 2 days ago. With internet available at my fingertips, i finally decided to start updating this blog.

Time flies.. as it's nearly 2 months now. I realised that time are spent if you fully use it. Like when i just arrived, the 1st week was the week before uni starts so each day was spent walking around sightseeing, taking pictures, and buy stuffs. So that one week actually went by slowly and boy was it like i was in vacation.

Then uni started. Orientation, lectures, tutorials, lab sessions, suddenly everyday just went by so easily because there is a routine. Today do this, tomorrow do that. Then time just flies.

Well, things are going well at the moment. Passed up assignments just very on time, except the recent one with 8 minutes passed due time but thankfully, still counted.

There are lots of stuffs here in Melbourne. But i guess i'll blog about it in separate posts with pictures.
