Internet Access + ME!

So now i finally know how important is the internet!
I am currently in melbourne where the apartment i stay do not provide internet
My flatmates intend to share a wifi and it is still in the process (apparently the process takes around 2 weeks, so LONG!)
So now i am living with only 2gb data phone plan! (dying!)

PEOPLE NOWADAYS CANNOT LIVE WITHOUT INTERNET!

THERE ARE A FEW REASONS BEHIND IT :

1. Applications!!!
In advanced countries like Australia, everything is done with the internet!
University enrollment needs to done ONLINE!
Subjects enrollment is ONLINE too!!
Even timetabling is also ONLINE!!!
If you don't have Internet access basically you do NOTHING!!

Talking about banking, you need to do INTERNET BANKING which requires Internet access!
Why Internet banking? apparently in Australia you can only transfer money with Internet baking!
not to mention that i even need to apply a bank acc. ONLINE!

What about TFN? Tax File Number is something like the number for each individuals to pay income tax!
Even if you don't work, you need that too!
And again, apply it ONLINE through www.ato.com.au !

Almost everything is done ONLINE! it is really environmental friendly as it is PAPERLESS!

2. Enquiry!!

Got something to ask? not to sure about smt?
In Australia, you don't really need to make phone calls!
You can CHAT ONLINE!! you get immediate reply by the staff or representative! so cool!
not only chat online, you can even TWEET!
Library of university of Melbourne have twitter that you can ask almost everything about it through twitter!!
besides, if there is something formal, just EMAIL!
No more paper forms to fill, instead online forms like google drive!

3. Connections

Wanna keep in contact with new or old friends, use SOCIAL NETWORK!!
There are tons of them!!
Personally, i use FB, Insta, WeChat, Line, Whatapps.....
Especially in connecting with my friends back in Malaysia or Singapore, i use all these!
FYI, i am using a mobile package which has unlimited TXT to international and local!
So i do sms my friends overseas but i will ask them to reply me through social network because it is FREE!

Now, tell me how many of us can live without Internet Access?
but I really wonder why in Australia there is not so many FREE WIFI spots like Malaysia.
they depends much on ONLINE but hard to find FREE INTERNET ACCESS!!
what if someone dont have mobile data, how can they survive?

Orientation begins!

Having Orientation today! First day! It is awesome! My host, Yanik is from sri Lanka and he brought us tour around the campus and telling us some fun stuff in uni! He is doing mechanical engineering system year 3!

I met a lot of people today.  Under yanik,  there is another girl, June who is also from Malaysia and most importantly she is from A level Jan 2012, same batch as SIEW yun! I also met, Jac chin and his gf, Jac was the head of department of finance in the classroom Kl last year (I was his vice) he is doing commerce and under jpa! He got aud 1200 per month from jpa! 

Remember I met a girl viduni, from sri Lanka that like me dunno which type of engineering to take? We gathered together and hanged out in the south lawn! There is a band singing and we just sat on the grass, enjoying our popcorn which is FREE! Viduni introduced her friend selina, from China and misaki,  Japanese! They are very friendly too

Something to share!

Just so you know, I don't really approve of chain messages but this one seems legit ...Sooo
THIS IS HOW FRIENDSHIP BREAKS 

Both friends will think that they are too busy

They will not contact each  other thinking it may be disturbing

As time passes, both will think... "let the other contact me"

After a while, each will think... "why should I contact first?"

Here, your love will gradually be converted to pride

Finally, without contact, the memory becomes weak

They forget each other.....

One day they will meet and blame one another

So, let's keep in touch, my dear friend

I don’t wanna be one of those kind of friends

So here I am saying,
I miss you! And hope that all is well with you?

Life is no fun without friend

Where I am?

i don't know why...
feel like i dont have a space in this place anymore
feel a bit like there is no longer a place for me!
i want to escape from here
but where can i go!
i have nowhere that can give me comfort!
that is no place that have a place for me!
i am homeless, nowhere to go & i don't know what to do!

perhaps $$ is really important!
if i have $$, i can buy myself a place and call it 'home'!
this "home" can be more than a shelter, it can also be a place that i know i will never be hurt

$$ cannot buy LOVE
but it can solve problems
