I believe...
...that I'm in Perth for a reason. There is a reason whereby why UWA chose to accept me although I have no foundation, and have a shitty SPM result and American Degree Program result.
But what is my purpose here? It's such a drastic change from America to Australia (apart from the fact that both the countries sort of start with A). One is about 20+ hours up North from Malaysia, another one is about 5+ hours down South from Malaysia. I never dreamt that I would be coming to Australia. I never even thought of coming over down to the Land Down Below.
I choose to believe that God gave me this opportunity to do something. But what exactly is this 'something'? I've been in Perth for 41 days already. But this 'something' is still foreign to me. I know that people might say that my purpose here in Perth is to study and get a degree. But I think there is more to this. There should be more than this. I'm still very curious why God placed me here in Perth. But I know that God works in mysterious ways. I guess I'll just have to wait till the storyline unfolds itself.
The reality that I'm in Perth didn't really hit me that hard. Life is still not much different. I'm still having fun, but a different kind of fun. NOT THOSE DIRTY FUN, MIND YOU! It still feels like I'm at home. Somehow, although I choose to deny it, I feel 'at home' here in Perth. It's like I'm born here instead of Malaysia. Not too sure why I feel that though.
This post is a random post. Haha. Just wanna post my feelings after going to my Cell Group last night. Anyway, I've gotta get back to studying now.

1 Month Later....
... I'm settling in Perth. I'm starting to get slow and old. I'm adjusting to the lifestyle here in Perth already. I don't think I'm as alert as I was last time now. You don't really need to be alert here, which is why the alertness just goes away as time passes by. I'm even typing this blog at a really really slow speed. Why type fast? There is a lot of time...
But anyway, University has been okay, I guess. Quite tiring though. I have classes at 9 every single day. I wake up at 7, switch on the comp, go bathe, prepare bread, eat bread and walk to the bus station to catch a bus to the Esplanade (City Busport). It's my daily Monday to Friday routine already. I always put on earphones to listen to music so that time will pass faster xD
However, I don't really concentrate much in the lecturers. Some lecturers has a weird accents. Eg: My stats and probability lecturer is an Italian I think. He pronounces 'Subtract' as 'Sub-Traaaaaaaak'. Damn. No wonder I hate stats and probability. And Adrian Liew is hating the lecturer too now xD (MA CI BAI XD) I would just rather study the stuff myself as it's quite troublesome to listen to those lecturers. HOWEVER, I'm just too lazy to study. HELP!
I have friends at University. And guess what we do? PLAY POKER! We use sweets as stakes. It's quite fun though. We normally play it at 'The Ref', which is the bigger cafeteria in our University. We are like the noisiest table in the whole cafeteria. You have to know that people in Perth speaks quite softly. However in our tables, it's nearly all Asians. When we get hyper and win, we just do what every normal human being would do. SHOUT! Thus, I think we got cursed by many people in The Ref, I think xD
I have to manage my finances properly. I just found out that I've freaking over-spent already. How am I going to survive T.T. I'm literally cooking every night now. I try not to buy lunches at the University. I have to SAVE MONEY! (YES KISHAN AND BEN! I'm SAVING MONEY!!!)
Oh well. Nothing much has been happening other than these. Oh yeah. I saw kangaroos already in the wildlife park (which reminds me I still owe my cousin sister money >.<). I saw many dingos too! The dingo is so cute!! It's something like a wolf-dog. DAMN CUTE LA WHEY! I wanna get one as a pet! But too bad it's protected T.T I would want 1 for a pet xD
Anyway, I'll just stop here. Gotta cook my dinner now. Till then!
