I cant believe that in less than a week time i will be leaving KK. The feeling is getting heavier and heavier, leaving my hometown and going to a foreign place. I will miss my home, my pet, my bed, my study room, mom's homecook food, basically every single thing i have and most of all my beloved parents. They have done so much for me and has given me unconditional love, what more they gav me a second chance to prove myself. They have done all they could to give me the best. I consider myself very lucky to have such wonderful parents. Not to forget a very carring brother.
>.<
Well i have sorted out all my shoppings and the last thing to do now is packing. MAS only allow first timers extra 5KG instead of 10KG so all in all i luggage has to be exactly 25KG!!!!!!
Yesterday i dig through my drawers to hunt for unused stationaries and placed them all on my table. lets see what did i manage to dig out...
few notepads (medium size and small size) including stick-on notepads, unused foolscap paper (about 4sets), 1 pencil case of colour pens, 1 pencil case of ballpens and ink pens, pencils, liquid paper (1) , thin folder (5sets), i never knew i hav so many of them! and its more than enough. Hidden treasures in my drawer. My dad said i could open a stationery shop.
Then i turn to my books, Hmmmm....if i were to bring all my books it would be more than 10KG! Eventho they might be usefull for my studies i think i m not able to bring them all unless there is extra weight left. Sigh, i just have to shut my eyes and think of the limited weight that i can carry. Oh well i will just bring my important notes. i weigh it and its about 2KG. geeez.
There wasnt any reply from the college about my enquire. I received a call from my agent few days ago and she said there will be a depature briefing this Sunday at the Dewan ______ at the SESB building. My college representatives will be there and other students who are goin to the same college or another college will be there too! So i m guessing that i will be informed on what is going ,where to go and what to bring on the day my course starts. Its something like an early preparations for us too, in a way we get to know a few people so that we wouldnt be lost on that day. Hmmm.
Oh! Yesterday i received an unknown phonecall. Phone call conversation (which was in mandarin) ;
unknown caller: is this yapp sing hui?
me: yes.
unknown caller: oh are u the student who is going to adelaide?
me: yes. ( how did u find me? )
unknown caller: oh, i got your phone number from AC service. I was asking them who else is
going to Adelaide besides my daughter.
me: Oh i see, ( so thats how u find me)
unknown caller: ya..since my daughter is goin there for the first time , i was thinking u kno we could get to kno each other better. my daughter's name is emily chong from tshung tsin. which school r u frm?
me: lok yuk! (omg! just dint wan the lady to asked more)
unknown caller: i see i see,so when are you leaving? i was wondering if you and my daughter is leaving on the same day.
me: i m leaving on the 22nd.
unknown caller: WAH!!! so early ar??? i thought the course starts on the 30th?? why r u goin so early? my daughter is only leaving on the 26th!
me: hehehe. cause my brother's summer course is goin to star on the 29th so i hav to be there a week earlier. he is bringing me over.
unknown caller: u got summer course meh?

unknown caller: oh oh..aiyah..how to meet up ar?

unknown caller: ya ya..but i wouldnt b able to make it cuz my whole family will be goin to keningau. tats the problem.
me: oh oh. (too bad)
unknown caller : so how bout ur accomodation?
me: i m staying at "our aussie retreat" its like a building which is divided into many rooms.
unknown caller: oh..is it in the city? do u cook ur self or what?
me: yes it is and they have common kitchen.
unknown caller : oh i see..i see..aiya my daughter's accomodation is not sorted out yet, still waiting for reply.
me: i see.
uknown caller: is it alright if my daughter stay at ur room if she hasnt gotten her accomodation sorted out.
me: Hah (wat the..) ..oh..sorry but my room is really really small. maybe i can help u find out whether there is other rooms available.
unknown caller: oh can can tat would b good. where do u live?
me: taman BDC
unknown caller: aiya tats quite far , i live in dah yeh villa just nearby ttss school..i was wondering how to meet...

unknown caller: maybe i will call u in a few days time., asked my daugther to talk to u.
me: ok.
unknown caller: thanks ar, wats ur name again?
me: oh just call me felicia yapp ( T_T)
unknown caller: ok ..felicia..bye thanks again.
me: bye.
After all that conversation, by the look of it, the girls mom seems anxious. i m sure every mother would feel the same too.
and i wonder whether she knew that the college can help them arrange accomdation plus picking students frm the airport.
Anyway, just i m glad to know that there is a student frm KK goin to that college. ;)
tats all for now. ciou~
