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.

guess u staying at perth by looking at ur siggy..with $515pw at perth,i believe that apartment must b part of luxury?
if i can afford $515pw for 2br at melbourne, i can easily get apartment without searching n also near to uni or inside CBD...

Hahahaha. Just touched down to Perth not long ago. Got me quite a shock as I saw the city is even smaller than several Malaysia cities except KL though they have scattered suburbs and really quiet at late night. Needs time to get used with it. I understand how it feels to have the boredom. Was a bit moody area and clearly I have observed what you've just said. It's so true! Was not used with the chinese food here due to the portion and the way they prepared theirs, quite heavy. However, that's not the main purpose to come over to Perth. For my first impression, it's not really the place to be. But you'll never know. Let's just see what happens within a year. I'll keep you guys updated if I've the time. . Sry if you have spent few minutes of your life reading nonsense.

UWA. U there too?
Oh my. Heard that bunch of whining birds making so much noise. Fattest birds that fly. Seagulls hanging around in da city. No doubt it's quite ulu here xD.

Aww man. Why are you leaving so quick xD. UWA is pretty good and good to hangout in ESP if you have friends. Met heaps of asians and ppl like Tom, d*** and Harry and myself take commerce mainly in A&F. *Faints*.

should be a lot too in biomed faculty and engineering faculty. Not much asians studying in the geoscience faculty though. =) but agree, UWA is really awesome. =D love the environment, and broadway is really near too if you're sick of the ref. xD

Guys, this is the Studying in Australia thread, not the Kopitiam subforum to discuss about the different brands of milk.

While I appreciate the impact of the "milk and bread" wars, this is not the place for banal chit chat. I can acknowledge the odd tangential discussion to give a day-to-day perspective of living in Australia as a student, but in the interest of keeping this thread as clean as possible as so other people who do their research don't have to wade too much chaff of your musings.

Try to keep this place informative rather than a stream of your thoughts eh?

Perth's weather is drying me crazy. As I have asked a few individuals about summer in Perth, they would see this time was one of the hottest summers ever. Thought my uni library would have air-conditioners everywhere as they wouldn't really need to use during spring, autumn and especially winter. But then, not that much.. just room temperature. Hoping to see some changes in season in days to come. =D
