orientation and enrolment
sorry for the late update. i've been on strike. i don't ever wanna actually have a google account to use blogger. but then, i can't blog if i don't have it. so, after MUCH consideration, i've actually submitted to the fact that i HAVE NO CHOICE but to get a google account.
so, i went for registration and enrolment on the 14th without knowing what to bring at all. (They sent everything to Malaysia -.-!) so i went there and tembak my way around, hoping that my not bringing anything will not cause too much inconvenience for others. fortunately, it did not.
while waiting in the incredibly long line to get things done, i saw Sally pass by. wasn't sure whether it was her at first but when i went to take a seat, i sat next to her, hoping it was Sally. And sure enough, it was her and her fashionable dressing. We all know how rare it is for Sally to not dress up *winks*.
anyway, it was long and tiring. they kept sending us from one block to another. only got to eat food at about 2 o'clock when i'm done with everything. the only thing good about it was that i got to know three people, Nisha (born in india but lived her whole life in Dubai), Dharini (from canada) and Damian (singapore). so i wasn't exactly alone to figure things out the whole day.
Today, I went to Medfest. well, it was really stupid of me really. the reason I was late cos I missed the first bus. I was at the bus stop waiting. when the bus came, i didn't see it and thus, didn't stand up. so the bus just drove by -.-!! had to wait another 15 minutes before the next bus came.
before i continue, i have a question to ask. if you saw a guy who was like the son of your mum whom you've seen in church often but never exactly talk to, what would you do? would you talk to him and get to know him? that was what happened to me. well, i would find it weird if i did that. so i pretended not to know that he was there and i think he did the same. haha :P.
so i went to sign a lot of crap (indemnities/insurance, etc). i don't think i know half of what i was signing for. all i know is that they are the same and free :). had a snow cone and a pizza with too many olives which i shared with megan. i met some plc ppl (megan, sally, janine and ivy). and i got to know kelly (brisbane), caroline (pentley? basically western suburbs), trisha (forgot where she's from), gina (taiwan), tasmeem (tasmania), natalie (essendon), katherine (local. haha, i forgot where she's from) and some other ppl who i don't really remember their names. there was this guy, michael, who was weirdly hanging around us girls. not weird but more like out of place cos like he's the only guy among us. didn't really get to know him.
yup, that's mainly what i did at medfest. going again on thursday to sign up for clubs and societies. this time, i hope i get to see mun yee and elisa *hint-hint*. tomorrow, my new friends and i are going to the city but i think that i will have more to do than just hanging out. still haven't been able to lodge my application for no apparent reason. am gonna call tomorrow morning or go personally to do it. so i'm sorry guys if i ditch you halfway. got to get these things done!!!
ok, till next time, god bless.
