July 21, my 2nd day at uni. still missed home alot! slowly but surely, it will disappear with time. recently, i've been running lotsa errands...trying to get everything done before uni starts and i'm glad that things have sorted out ever since last week!
 
first thing first, my air-ticket! the first horror i got when i returned melbourne was that i realised that i threw out by mistake my open-SQ air-ticket few months ago!! when i reported the loss at the STA Travel Agency, the guy at the desk told me that it takes more than 2 weeks to get all these mess fixed because they couldn't access my flight info from the Singapore Office. and not only do i need to wait, they have to charge me 90 bucks just for the admin work?! *what duh...* my heart sank. "dope!" i exclaimed. but off came a brilliant idea! *think! think! light bulb* yep, called up my mommy and she did me a big favour....hop around STA Office in Singapore and immediately, all the records got printed out. Eventually it worked out to be an eticket and i could easily fly back on SQ with my passport end of the year! which means....i need not wait for STA Agency here to do the admin work and also, not have to pay 90 bucks!!! how good is that? =) *grinnnn*
 
but the only challenge for me is to call SQ in Melb to inform them of my return flight details and changes. now, that is new to me...haven't made such calls and i'm a little apprehensive. however, all things worked out great!!! haha, i even booked my flight home!!! i've even booked a window seat! *yehhh!!!!* and this time, i'll be arriving in Singapore in the afternoon........strange, but good time! yessss, i love day-flights!~ man!!! i just can't believe this! i just came back and i'm already arranging my return flight dates!!! =)
 
that got sorted out....Phewww! and the next thing: my course subjects. as this is my final semester at uni, i have to make sure i have met all the requirements for my 3 years course here. if not, they wouldn't allow me to graduate!!! arggghhh~ that will be so terrible if it really did happen!! well, to make matters more complicated, i need to ask the Course Advisor for help; the thing is, "i don't even know who she is? where's her office? how to contact her?" well, i went down to the Arts Faculty HelpDesk to ask on Monday....and eventually it worked out that i would just need to fill up a form, hand it in and within 3 days, i would be able to know whether if i fulfilled the university criterias for graduation end of this year. woohoo!~ i got the prompt email replied to me yesterday informing me that i'm alright! =) *yehhh! another thing settled!!*
 
so far so good....! and yep, my health is coming back....have been popping fedac for the past few days and yes, my running nose is much better now! just that my nose is peeling so badly that i just wished i could chop it off! my fever is gone~ just need to get started with my engines once more! lotsa reading to catch up with and that's why i'm currently in the library typing away! man!!! back to this library again.....getting books off the shelf and trying to start reading Week One's material on my reading lists! lots to cover....!!! gota go home now.....if not, it gets too dark outside.....
 
it's 4pm now...another day almost gone!
