It depends, if you are looking to get more Kiwi friends, it would be better if you can get a hall. But the application dateline was at the 1st of October, so sorry mate.

But don't get disheartened, there are usually lots of places in trademe where you can get rooms instead of the whole flat and usually you'll find a place where there are Kiwis or some other international students, it's not that hard to get a single room, as there are heaps in the city.

Will you come here as a first year student or are you a twinning student?

I'm leaving very very very soon, before the 10th of February, so can't really meet you here tongue.gif

If you are going to the Pipitea campus and do not own any cars, try to look around Lambton Quay, The Terrace or Thorndon. Not surburbs but streets.

However, if you are planning to buy a car but want to stay near to the city, Aro Valley is the place for you. Or you can always find cheap flats in Karori, Northland, etc.

Island Bay's good too, near a beach, but a bit far la

I guess so...I'm in Wellington. Are u still in NZ or hav u come back to Malaysia?

Well, at the very least come back to Malaysia and contribute. Not everyone who goes overseas to study leaves with the intent to permanently settle down there, through that is becoming the norm.

When I first came here, I was of that idea i.e. to permanently settle down here. But now, there is a possibility that i might go back. Wad bout u Haya? are u done with NZ or hav u decided to stay here?

Are u a pr with indefinite visa? im actually planning to migrate to nz, though i might get my pr before i finish studies coz parents are currently under consideration for skilled migrant category. nope i havent yet. Going in there in April for the Easter holidays.... im thinking along the same lines as well....ie to do my post-grad in malaysia. (probably monash sunway)
