QUOTE(hihihehe @ Aug 26 2008, 11:45 PM) act i tot got intake for february but now only know don have..so is my mistake after all..n for this sept intake i got no time for it..n also too rushing..so i think cant make it You can take a gap year if you want to, manye people don't have that opportunity. In fact, I am thinking of taking a gap year also...now it's just too rush with all the visa and crap, eventhough i applied for this years intake, don't know whether i can make in in time. When you take a year off, you can go for cooking class, guitar lesson etc which would be good if you are staying alone next time...cause this is the only time that you will be able to have so much free time already, at least until you're retired at 50+years old...Nizadi: thanks for the site. Not really what I'm looking for though. Looking for some short term accommodation e.g. hostels in London to stay in while I look for more permament ones. Thanks again. |

Gumtree offers listing for short term accommodation as well.Nizadi: thanks for the site. Not really what I'm looking for though.

QUOTE(angelgemini @ Aug 26 2008, 02:56 PM) hi, i wanna ask for my friend.. i've found delivery service that is relatively the same price as keeping the luggage in london. they plan to go euro trip after finish their study.. so anyone know where can they keep their luggage in london? cheap and safe??? any place? they dun wan to take 30kg luggage around euro.. standard price for keeping luggage is GBP5 per luggage per 24 hours. so assuming u have 2 bags totaling 30kg, that's 10 pounds a day. eurotrip takes what? a week enough ah? that's GBP70. delivery service to malaysia (lembah kelang area) is about GBP80 per carton (61x51x41cm, max 35kg). refer here . delivery zones vary, but lembah kelang is the cheapest. the most expensive one would be sabah sarawak, which is about GBP120 per carton. trust me, traveling around europe, u'd want to keep as little baggage as possible. u'd be buying lotsa stuff around there, so u might not wanna keep a heavy luggage around. send it back home! |
