Seriously?

Would you by any chance be using a blackberry phone? The plan is to get a pay-as-you- go sim only, for now. Browsing through the various telco websites,, it seems PAYG sim only for blackberry is uncommon, only T-mobile and Voda offering.

mind share which area are you at?
did u purchase the normal small hairdryer or the high pressure ones? what's the best price you got?

I am leaving for UK tonight as orientation starts this week and registration starts next week. I just want to thank you esp podrunner, cckkpr and limeuu for the advices given.

I shall miss Malaysia but is a new chapter for me and I really look forward to it.

Bye!

good luck, and have a good time....

some electrical products are actually cheaper then in msia....

so you managed to get a small rice cooker?....i only see 1.8l ones in uk....

yes, cooking can reduce expenses....a relative spend only 10 quid a week from the supermarket for food.....

HSBC is pretty convenient too. One can open an account here before going over.

Hello there! I was looking at the cute compact hair dryer at Argos here at Newcastle. Its 3.99pounds. How's the power? So regret for not bringing one from home with me. Saw another hair dryers with the brands like Revlon, etc costing 15pounds above!

Speaking of the rice cooker, there's many Made-in-China brands, but those are 1.8l big and costs 26pounds and above. I just want a small one, enough for one person. No more

Been cooking with frens who brought his rice cooker and we share lots of equipments while waiting for our flatmates to arrive. I must say, cooking really save a lot of money! Even those cheapo-student-meal-deals cannot compare. So oily!

And i realized those shampoos and shower cream are made in France, Italy, etc instead of our usual made in Thai.

Lloyds bank here is so damn fullhouse! 1 hour waiting time

Do we need to register with the police?

Hello
i need some advice from you guys ..
anyone currently studying in Birmingham college university , northumbria or UWE ?  Need some advice for which uni to go for business studies in my final year . *confused*

the counsellor suggested me to go to Birmingham college uni because when im graduate i'll get the certificate from birmingham uni instead of the college uni . 

Hi all, asking on behalf of a friend of mine. She's taking master degree at Coventry Uni London Campus, is there any near-by or recommended room for rent?
Your input is much appreciate.

Thanks in advance.

erm... right. will tell her so then. 'coz i not sure if the rental is much more exp if stay in-campus or not.
Thanks for your feedback

anybody here going for uni of kent/ newcastle/ reading/ southampton/cardiff???

I want to know the way lecturer's teach there.Is it like 2hours lecture, and the lecturer disappears,,,I mean, do they have follow up like tutorial classes with smaller amount of students?

Uni of Kent,Uni of Reading, Uni of Southampton, Uni of Cardiff....anybody studying here degree in acc&finance?

Just did the TB test in Glen Eagles.
Apparently just implemented this year or so. Hmm.

I deferred due to family issues. Visa expired, had to renew. 
but anyhow I'm reapplying to a few uni's.
Something tells me I'm in the wrong course but hopefully I'll get it sorted out within this few weeks. 

I'm not sure why many ppl say clothes are cheaper here in the UK. Tbh, it's not. Winter clothing, sure, but don't forget  winter's only 3 mths of the year. Normal day to day wear in Malaysia is certainly cheaper, unless you don't substandard apparel from places like primark or mataland. Take a look at debenhams site, you'll get the picture.

But my most important advice....learn to cook. otherwise you're dead my friend.
