its up to u whether u really need it or not.. if ur laptop heats up like nobody's business then u might want to get one.. elsewise, just 2 tissue packets and lift the back of the laptop up.. works for me in malaysia.. i dont bring my laptop cooler back home.. i brought mine here tho..

try calling them up and ask for your application status.. not sure whether it is the right thing to do or not, but hey, give it a go..

if i were u i'll call them up, or email them and ask.. no harm done..

wah sure or not ? never knew its that expensive to go thru an agent..

been dropping like mad.. meaning have to work longer hours to enjoy holidays in msia this summer.. ..

2.5 is darn cheap already.. anywhere below this is even better.. save damn hell of a lot on tuition fees..

virgin mobile.. customer service is way way better than optus.. either way, virgin is operating under optus..

wat about it ?

ya... i agree.. good timing for parents to send next semester/year's fee..

bad timing for us who worked our ass out during the semester and want to bring back AUD to msia and exchange to RM to enjoy our holidays back home....

im looking at that car too.. small and nice.. how much u got it for?

yeah i like small cars, thats why im looking at it.. the 20k includes all those fees n registration? coz i see onsite its 15.7k only for the most basic one.. i dun really know about all this kinda stuff, not a car fan, never thought of having a car also.. just bought a bike a few months ago.. haihs.. can international students pay by installments?

oooh damn.. haihs.. at first i tot i wouldnt stop cycling.. but after cycling to uni for a few months, i gave up.. rather take the bus again.. not a cheap bike too.. LOL.. at least i can cycle to work ..

whoa u should be happy ur parents can get u a car.. haihs.. too bad me no $$ .. i checked out suzuki swift too, around the $20k range.. sweeet! actually these are the two cars i have in mind.. hmmm.. probably ill decide next year, and hopefully the exchange rate drops again..

i hope not.. coz that's when im gonna change my hard earned AUD to RM..

wanna go back msia and enjoy mah.. .. SGD maybe, if ill be going there for a day or two, but not when the exchange rate is roughly 1:1.. i rather stay at home

in msia i use like 3-4 packets of tissue paper everyday... here i use like.. er.. say 20 packets can last me for about 1 semester? msia is madness.. stock up tissue paper like crazy..

after touching down in australia i can feel the fresh air going into my lungs.. damn shiok!

yah i knew it.. before i went to bed earlier today, at about 1am+ i checked the exchange rate on xe.com.. my god 2.23.. so, there goes my holidays.. no moolah to spend in malaysia.... but hey, that makes the new macbook pro more affordable in australia!

good time to buy properties in australia, as in, using RM to exchange to AUD and get one.. .. same goes to getting a car ..
