it's been more than a week since i'm back in brisbane

a week has gone by just like that..
as always, saying goodbyes to my grandma and parents are never easy,
this time, got extra hugs from my kuku and beloved grace =)
took the flight back to Brisbane on 24th feb at 9.15pm.

arrived at my new accommodation, Urbanest at around noon, checked in, then went out again for lunch with my HK friend, Crystal. It was really nice of her to accompany me to get my groceries and stuff in the city. I would have been even more miserable if she wasn't there. I'm living in a unit with new ppl, no ex-IH friends at all. Homesickness sets in so quick and badly as i see my room and small bathroom. I couldn't help it but cried when jie called me cos i kept thinking how expensive this place is after hearing my other friends' opinion. Thanks for the call, jie!

The next day, i went to Pauline's place to get my belongings. I was touched when she offered to cook lunch for me, it was a simple yummy baked Coles chicken wings and stir -fried lettuce. We took a cab back to urbanest and then out for grocery shopping again. Thanks for accompanying me pau pau!

Ate sandwiches for most of my meals, but on the third day onwards, i started cooking. Don't have much problem with that =)

Travelling to uni is a whole new thing to me, i was surprised to see the super long queue for bus no 109 from uni back to urbanest. Oh well, I will have to get used to that, after all, it's only a 10-mins journey, can't complaint much.

Starting to like my room and urbanest after i settled in and arranged my room. Loving the en suite bathroom and the view and the air-con of course! will upload some pics of my new place on FB soon.

Uni is gonna be pretty tough this sem as I've forgotten most of the elementary stuff i studied last year, plus all my precious, hand-written notes are damaged by the flood. And I have not got back my study mode yet, hari-hari FB like ALOT, on MSN whole day, cos there's no extension numbers between rooms, so MSN is a free and easy way to contact my friends who are staying in urbanest as well.

See, I'm even blogging now at 11.27am, i don't usually do that. That's all for now, gonna have classes later from 2-6pm.

This is my home-cooked dinner two nights ago. It's pretty good =)
