Melbourne here I come...



I AM HERE IN MELBOURNE! I just can't believe it. It all happened so fast...no time to digest. From the time I made up my mind to further my studies to the application and the long tedious preparation (getting approval from moe, finishing my work, buying and packing my luggage)...WOW! Time just flies! But I really want to take this time to give thanks. Thank you God for being there for me all the way and sending people to encourage, reassure and pray for me. I don't know how I can get through all these struggles and uncertainties without you. Thank you for blessing me with so many wonderful people...my family, friends, colleagues, cell group and students. Can't express how grateful and touched I am! Will not forget all the farewell lunches, dinners and the final farewell at the airport! I miss all of them.

Melb is great! I love this place. There is so much to do...so many places to go...I am simply lost...no idea what to do first. Thank God for Pesvien, my new flatmate. Thank God that I have someone to share this with. We do all the things together...buying furniture, fixing the furniture, buying phone cards, setting up the internet, exploring the neighbourhood and city, shopping for groceries, even exercise!!! I am so proud of myself, I swim and jog almost everyday! Hope this will last:p Agnes is not here to motivate me anymore...and no more Mr Woh:(

My apartment is too good to be true. I feel as if I am living in a hotel! Everything is so new and clean. It even has a swimming pool,gym, spa, tennis court and bbq pit! WOW! Thank God for sending Hannah (my the other flatmate) to look for the place and securing it. I love my neighbourhood too. It is not as noisy as the city, the tram is just across the road, South Melb Market and other eateries in walking distance, Crown Casino is just opposite...heehee...It is really a nice and safe environment! LOVE IT! It is just like living in Shenton Way...I feel like a rich lady living in a service apartment...unfortunately I am not:( The view from our windows is also great!

We went to North Richmond today and had some Chinese food...that was great too...after eating nothing but instant noodles and soup for the past few days...heehee...I am too lazy to cook...so just boiled stuff.

Check out the pictures that Pesvien and I took. Enjoy:o)
