Matriculation @ the National University of Stairs.

If you are a freshie matriculating into NUS, beware. Be sure to bring a trolley bag with you, unless you have strong hands to carry all your barang-barang for you. Today was well, an experience. Because never before in my prissified natural born life did I have to carry a ton of heavy stuff -- including my spanking brand new Acer laptop and walk around NUS, mind you.

And it certainly doesn't help that NUS is rather hilly and her main features are stairs, stairs and more stairs.

Ahh today was also probably the first time I actually maximised the use of my NETS card. Never before did I have to pay for something that costs $2000 using MY NETS card. I felt like Donald Trump. Yesss. That's the first step. -Apprentice theme song playing in background- (like real, whatever amy) Lucky I had two NETS cards so I could cash and carry the laptop and didn't have to wait 2 weeks. I think its ridiculous that they make us wait two weeks if we put a deposit.

But all in all, it was great fun. And I DO have strong arms. And hands. Although I was almost dead by the time I met Atikk and Di at Engin Fac's Macs, where we did and talked about stuff that should not be disclosed at any time.

Matriculated with Gamar, my fellow Science minah. The both of us entered the CCA fair with one aim in mind--we went straight to the PB and MS booth. Heh. Now that's what I call semangat.

Well, I guess the reason why I, for the first time in my life am so motivated to join a Malay society is because I've never met nicer people in my life. Okay maybe I'm exaggerating but I think its just so nice to see a bunch of people so close together. Hmm. Reminds me alot of those JC days where SAJC's MCS was run by us-- not as individuals, but as a clique, a group of close friends. That's how little Malays we had in SA. Haha.

I miss them. Lydia you too!! Perth looks like fun.

God bless the broken road,
that led me straight to you.
