i'm there in adelaide since july 2007. basically i just completed my 1st sem there...so which campus ru in?

lifestyle there is really calm and peaceful. cant expect much frm a small city. i didn't get use to it as i came frm KL. so to me, i would say is boring. nothing much to do there. but cant deny is a good place to study tho. not much distraction ma.hehe... so wen it comes to hols...urgh....boring.......i would encourage u to join societies like malaysia association society. it's a good start to begin with. thats where i get to know lots of people thru the society. besides tat, it do organise lots of activities.. if i didn't join that, i will definately miss out alot of stuff lor.. cos i went there alone...and didn't know anyone from there smile.gif

food is not too bad..but i advise u to get some cooking books frm here b4 goin thr...bcos u won't b able to afford eatin out everyday unless ur loaded..hehe. house rental has increased dis year so im not too sure bout tat. cant wait for my contract to end to find another place..hehe...
wah...ur goin so earli? wat foundation ru doin? too bad i wont be in adelaide til end of feb.. wink.gif just came back to Kl actually...is anyone flyin to adelaide on 29th feb? hehe

There was such a thread some time ago... I've posted quite a couple of tips back then. Now graduate and back in Malaysia edi smile.gif

Anyway, Adelaide is a good place to study... coz very few distractions or "life". But then, it will be a good time to enjoy other healthier lifestyle like sports, recreation, beaches, etc. Cost of living is reasonably low if you can budget your expenses well (eg. Self-cook, sharing house, stay in suburbs, little shopping).

wow..thanks for the info... biggrin.gif
enjoy reading it and cant wait to go for it!!! rclxms.gif
Adelaide...Here i come!!!! tongue.gif

It's AUD430 to be exact. Just reapplied due to some error by Monash, thankfully I've managed to get them to reimburse all costs incurred while applying for the visa again.
