Chapter Seven: Kepanasan yang sangat tersangka.
Yeah. It's freakingly hot today here in Perth since it's currently
summertime and at this rate, I would kill to have a good time at the
beach right now.
Surprisingly
though, coming back to Perth was like coming to Perth for the first
time. Sure I was a little homesick, but suddenly, from I believe
Saturday onwards, all of those homesickness were gone and I felt a
helluva more at ease right now! Pretty funny feelng if you ask me, but
I'm really having a good time here at the moment.
I currently
live in Flat 86 Room 1 in Student Village. As per my request, I am now
in an ensuite instead of a single room, so not only do I have a
personal bathroom, I also have a personal telephone to go along with it
as well! Furthermore, compared to my previous room, there's a lot more
space in this cozy room of mine now and it's pretty near the south
carpark of Murdoch Uni.
My flatmates consist of Falique, a
Malaysian who's been studying in Brisbane for a long time (and picked
up a heavy Aussie accent) and is majoring in International Business,
Queenie, a Norwegian girl who's enrolled in a Science course and
Chantelle, a gorgeous Aussie who's majoring in Biomedical Science. All
in all, I'm having a great time socializing with my flatmates and their
bunch of friends (had a good chat with Chantelle last night as well)
and compared to my previous flatmates from last year, I'm loving it
here.
Yesterday was a pretty fun day. Queenie invited me to join
her and her mates in a game of volleyball and we played several rounds
of it and enjoyed ourselves a lot. Later on that night, Student Village
had their welcome BBQ, which was really really fun. I met a lotta new
friends, including two superbly hot American chicks, Jackie from New
York and Emily from Seattle, a Japanese girl name Ayumi from Nagoya and
also several other peeps as well. The highlight was being able to
reunite with some of my juniors from KDU whom I hung out a lot with
last time, so with most of us around (excluding Aaron and Josephine
cause they're still stuck in KDU), we could go back to the good old
days of hanging out with each other again.
I had Media Audiences
lecture today, which in a way was the first chapter in my new semester.
So far, everything went okay and I was a lot more focused than ever as
well. I guess the three month holiday that I had really motivated me to
work extra harder than ever and this time around, I'm aiming for
Distinctions all the way. It's gonna be a tough road for me, but I'll
do whatever it takes to be the best at what I can do.
On another
bright side, I'm finally done downloading the full Music Station Super
Live 2005 concert with every performance being in it and zero
commercial breaks. (Would actually be cool to actually catch the Mario
Kart DS commercial featuring the "Hot" Super Mario Bros. Hehehe.) I'm
trying to see if I can make DVD copies of it, but unfortunately, my
VAIO Click To DVD software loves to fuck up on me, so I was wondering
if any of you guys (particularly those in Perth) could recommend me a
good software to burn these DVDs and lemme know asap.
Till next time!
