To be honest, this country is 180 degree from what I imagined, it is wayyyyyyyyy to modern, as a Potterhead I still yearn for a city like Oxford. Wish me luck for my postgraduate there.
So let me tell you about this dream country, it is a nice city with a lot of immigrants, by a lot I mean a looooooooot. HA HA HA. At first you would feel like you are in China not in Australia. May be it is because I study in UNSW which has a lot of international students who are mostly Chinese, by Chinese I mean they are from China mainland.
So let me tell you, how it is here. As I said, this is a country of immigrants, I met a lot of Indonesians and most of my friends are Indo, this is one reason why I want to go exchange, I really want to have a close International student. HAHAHA, but I think because I hang out with my Indo friends, I don't really experience homesick. I like it here, at least I got reasons for myself not to remember about those 'friends'. At least, I won't be sad if they are not talking to me again as I'm here in Aussie which far from them.
Okay, so here I am, survived the first 3 months here living 'kinda' alone in Sydney. I learnt a lot of things, from being able to clean my room my laundry and my dishes, trying to cook some dished which I was also amazed that I could actually cook them, to learning that every place is in your walking distance, yeah if you study abroad be ready to walk a lot, by a lot I mean you would rarely use car, the least you can use is bus and train.
And the thing that people told me that Actuarial is moderately hard, I believe it now, but I still think they overreacted, because from this semester I learnt that if you try hard, you can even score full mark. Yeah my first math test was a disaster, but at least I got something, that I must study harder than I did in highschool. If you know me, in highschool, I almost slept everyday which I don't know why. Here, I got to study like until night and I also need to pay attention in lecture if I want to have a good score.
By the way, I kinda miss how easy it was to go to mall, here it happens rarely, I miss going to mall to eat dinner. I also miss street food, the food here is way too expensive. By expensive, I mean it is expensive, imagine you can get a nice dish at nice restaurant in Grand Indonesia, with the same price you will only get an ordinary food here.
Talking about those 'friends', I really miss our jokes, our swimming sessions, our stupid chats, the way I was always being teased, the dinner time, martabak quality time, and so many things. But what can I do, by being left without a single explanation. I really wish we would all being met again someday by chance and everything would be clear because honestly I miss our stupid squads.
HAHAHA..... wish one of you read this.
Okay, 2 weeks from now I am going to have my first final examinations, wish me bunch of luck and I could survive this 'deadly' degree.
By the way after the examS, I'm going to Gold Coast with my girlfriendS, as it will be my first travelling with my squads, finally my mom gave me permissions.
See you reader, wish me luck and see you soon.
xoxo,
dreamer
