=P well, the design is nice i have to admit xD

should be 30 days. =) I'm on powerpack, but not sure if i wanna change to international call. (1c per min to msia O.o super stuff). But powerpack is good enough =) at least i can stream youtube for free when i'm bored. xD

MODL is removed =/ And heaps of stuff which I don't understand at all. *my sis showed me* will be a new SOL list out in end of april.

more asians in curtin than UWA =) that's what I know. Bout hot chicks um.... I'm not so sure. but yes, you're choosing your uni based on chicks? O.o

haha it's always exciting when ur venturing to a new place =P I'm nervous of going down tassie too =) Still love Perth though =( too bad cant get the course I want in UWA.

http://www.ato.gov.au/ =) i applied 2years ago, it DIDN'T came. =.=

happy chinese new year peps! =D

men, tassie is a very VERY small place. lol. nice sceneries though =)

nah its not. Perth is downright awesome. =) I mean it.

a week here in tassie. can't wait uni to start cos i'm bored to death now. =.=

haha oh they go fishing most of the time? hmm, what's there in hobart pier, csiro and battery point? i only know that battery point is a housing area. =P

Tahaaaaaannn!!!!!!! i'm dying of boredom here, luckily uni started, still settling my accommodation thing. =( boohoo.


nice to hear that. =) maybe I'll head over during mid year break for vacation.

it's like perth's winter in hobart now =.= and it's only summer. men am I done for during winter.

it's weird, it's getting hotter in autumn compared to summer here in hobart. they said that that usually happens before the chills kick in during winter. ><

oh yes, its hard to get a good house, esp when it's near the campus. Those near UWA are super expensive. I lived near leeming last time. haha.

Hey I found bubble tea here in hobart! lol =P

international call : optus international for less ftw. =)
I reckon turbo charge and 3 postpaid are equally good depending on which plan your friends are using. =) sadly, we dont have 3 in tasmania =.= so everyone's with optus. good in a way. lol. esp with free minutes and stuff. xD

using iinet ADSL =( can't get adsl 2+ too.

Architecture will be in Launceston campus. Um, I'm not entirely sure about the course, prob have a look here: http://fcms.its.utas.edu.au/scieng/arch/cp...sp?lCpageID=282 It's a 3 years course, add on 2 years for masters. Again, I'm not sure of how the launceston campus is like cos i'm in Hobart. And sadly to say, I don't even know much of my main campus in Hobart cos i'm situated in ANOTHER campus within the city. So it's pretty spread out. But all i know is that UTAS is one of the rare unis that offer Naval architecture. Hmm, well, tasmania is a boring place but good for studying, kinda (well, quite) cold sometimes, and the tuition fee is cheap. =P but not food wise though, esp chinese food.

I'm limiting myself to 11k this year, including all the tables chairs beds and daily stuffs. Rental should be below 140$ pw depending on the location, and I spend around 100$ for food pw. So yeah, with 12-14.5k you can live in luxury i have to say. No worries you'll be fine with <11k. Again, that depends on how you plan your finance. =)

Environment? pretty pretty PRETTY sceneries =D and it's a quiet place, good for studying. =) that's what I reckon. But seriously, there's nothing much to do here. =D


um, I'm running on 100$p/w on groceries =/ don't think 25$ pw is possible for me >< haha. groceries are slightly more exp than perth and major cities in mainland i guess. btw, if carotmilk is going to do archi in tas, it'll be in launceston, so that's a whole new story in terms of rental and expenditure. cos the guideline i'm giving is based on hobart. =P and yes, not much chinese restaurants here in hobart, and I rather cook myself xD *well there are some nice ones*

hmm, we have loads of scholarship for rural health placements but wait! it's not for international students =( dangit. Um, yeah, i'm not on any scholarships. I'm going on 11k inclusive of my bed chair table table lamp + some other stuff that I need. If you need an exact figure on the rental+internet+elec,gas+food, it'll be <10k =D well yeah i took the initiative to count, or the fact that i'm just bored. >< so you've decided? =D

yeah prob cos i buy bits by bits, so thats why it's kinda exp. hmm, sorry for not making it clear, 100$ is my week's spending, groceries can hit around 40ish. well, still looking for a way to save =P where's this no frills wholesale CnC?
