Haha…sorry…for not updating the blog for so long(get slap)
Anyway…haha…a lots of things happened on the way I go Australia…
Let me throw them out…I am sure this entry will be very long…
2007.2.7. That was the day I was going to Australia…
Really…time flies…I thought I will have a long holiday in Taiwan but the day just came too soon…
When I was in the car, going to the airport, ok, I felt a bit sad…but I did not cry out.
I will definitely miss my lovely hometown.
When I reached Melbourne, it was the next day.
We went to the bank to open a bank account.The officer was very friendly to us.
He was patient to explain to us how the card works.
I always hear from people that Australian is very racist but it was totally different to what I have heard in the past.
Australians are very very friendly>/////<
The next day we flied to Tasmania to send my brother to study.
He is going to study in Tasmania so we are separated.
And…the bad thing happened!!!!!
I was thinking it may be better for me to call my homestay host that I will be coming to her house when we came back to Melbourne so I called her.
OH MY GOD!!!!!!SHE SAID SHE IS NOT GOING TO HOST ME!!!!!!
She said she is going to host other student so she cannot host me.
How can this happen???
I had already settled everything before leaving Taiwan through emailing with the school officer who will arrange the homestay for me.
Why this thing can happen????
And…haha…it is very difficult to use internet in Australia as their internet is very expensive.
AND…the contact details of the school officer is in my email!!!!!!
OH MY…I was so mad at that time…
And after I got the phone number of the school officer, there was still no use…
Coz the school did not open in the weekend…shit!!!!!
The reception people in the hotel we stayed in Tasmania were all very helpful.
The lady did not charge me for using the internet from the first 30 minutes.
Even another guy helped me connect my laptop to their hotel internet line for free.
Oh…they were really helpful people…they helped us a lot…
Without them…this thing cannot be settled so fast…
With this happened, we had no mood to play.
Sad…our original schedule is to stay for 1 week and look around the beautiful island…
But…the stupid thing had spoilt our mood…
We had to return to Melbourne earlier to settle my homestay…or else I will have no place to stay…=”=
Coz my parents cannot speak English well so everything I had to do…
Change the date of the air ticket, book the hotel…oh my goodness…
And my stupid brother…why everything went smoothly for him???
Why everything turns out bad to me????
I was so angry about him at that time because he is useless and do nothing.
We were there busy calling the airline to change the date and he was there, relaxed, eating burger…shit!!!!!!
Tasmania is the island below the mainland of Australia.
Although it is a small island, it is actually bigger than Taiwan.
Tasmania is a very beautiful island.
The time I got down the plane, I was stunned by the view.
There are no tall buildings around, neither in the Hobart city.
You can actually see the big sky, with no tall buildings blocking your view.
Oh…It makes me feel so comfortable and relaxed.
Coincidentally, they were having a Boat Festival at the time we went to Tasmania.
There were so many boats in the port.
There was one looked like the ship in One Piece^___^
We went to Australia’s famous market.
There were so many things~~~>____<
After that, we went back to Melbourne.
We cannot book the hotel previously stayed in coz it was fully booked.
The hotel I booked was a bit like the student hostel.
It is suitable for backpackers and students.
My mom cannot get used to the hotel as the toilets are outside our room…
Anyway…I contacted Jeremy, the school officer who helped me to arrange the homestay.
Luckily, I found a new homestay which is quite near my school.
I only need to walk for 10 minutes to school.
Kerry, my host, is very friendly too.
I am quite happy to live with her.
There is a dog in her house called Raf.
He is very cute^___^ Likes to chase the light reflected from the watch.
Now there are two more girls living in the homestay.
One is from Hong Kong and the other is from Korea.
The first girl studies in the same school as me^___^
Everything is quite alright now.
The first lesson was on 25 Feb.
I have friends from Thailand, Vietnam, Hong Kong, Malaysia and Taiwan too^___^
There are quite a lot of Malaysia students coming to our school to study the year 3 as they have finished the diploma in Malaysia.
There are also quite a large number of students from Indonesia in my class.
Ah our class only has 17 students coz we are studying foundation which is like jc2 in Singapore.
Haha…so is the same…the difference is I study different things from you guys…hehe
But…you know what…I still need to study Math(Now is Algebra…=”=)…I want to die…
Why have to study Math…We don’t need Math for Design…=”=
And…I still cannot escpae from the nightmare of GP…
I need to study English and Communication Skills now…
We need to write essays too…so…sad…
I have to back up my English man…=”=
Or else I will die…orz
