1st day in Adelaide

A bit backdated, since this was yesterday, but I was just too tired to actually write anything yesterday (except a few emails to some people). In the end, I didnt sleep too early either cause I forgot to buy a hairdryer and my hair was so wet!

The flight to Adelaide was so-so. I cant believe that Qantas didnt give us a comfort kit! Heng I had my toothbrush and toothpaste in my bag. If not... yucks. As usual, there's a baby on board that kept crying during the sleeping time. But overall, quite ok. Upon reaching Adelaide, I was quite surprised by the weather. Was prepare for hot weather, but it was 19 degrees! The international student officer that met me, Ivan, said that a few days before it was 30+ degress. So quite heng for me! :) (Today's weather seems quite cooling too!)

Adelaide reminds me of Hobart. *yeah* but just not as quiet. Will need to take some time to explore the place.

I am currently staying at Kathleen Lumley College. Not sure how long I'll stay... see how things goes. I was quite shocked at the room. I had to share a bathroom with another gal (which is OK), and also to share my wardrobe space with her (which I am NOT OK!). I did not expect this. If this is the case, I would rather have a share bathroom and have my own wardrobe space! The gal whom I am sharing with is not here yet. Will see how she is next week before I see whether to change room (which will increase my rent).

From the college it's about a 10-15 mins walk to Uni. The journey to Uni is quite a pleasant one as 1) the surrounding areas is quite quiet and 2) I get to walk pas the Torrens River and a park! Nice to walk in the morning, but have to take care when I come home at night. The Uni itself is quite nice. Have some slopes but not too much. Best part? Psychology building is located in a central position and not some far-off end of the Uni. Phew.

The City and the State Library is just beside the Uni. So convenient! Woolsworth is near too, located in the street across Uni. However, to walk back from there is tiring. When you buy lots of stuff, even worse. Can be ultra tiring.

Ok, gtg off to Uni for briefing!

Note: Not sure why this was not posted early this morning, but going to post it now :)
