actually u can bring anything but very mafan if want to pass through custom. On the plane before landing they'll give u one card to fill in to declare anything u are bringing in.
I brought only cloths and electronics stuff and i get to the express lane without them operating my whole baggage from surface to feet. I guess only me or a few

Cause i see most ppl bring a lot of food stuff like maggi mee, and the custom ppl open the whole luggage to check everything one by one
And careful, u can't hide anything cause got some cute beagles tagging along at the baggage claim section

If u're unlucky u get to see some fierce dog
Anyway i just reached Melbourne todae

Compare to Adelaide is so much more congested, city filled with young peoples. The Australian ppl ( guai lo or asians born here ) are so frenly are nice, but the chinese ( im chinese ) ....

not so haha
Now im not sure whether to get a prepaid or subscribe a package for my phone

The customs declaration isn't that mahfan unless you bring a whole suitcase of food, medications, and other declarable stuff. And for anyone who's coming in, DON'T curi-curi hide anything. It's better to declare even if you're unsure of the items you're bringing. The officers usually understand that students will tend to bring in food/medications and stuff like that so they won't be too anal, unless you meet someone who's in a shit mood that day.
Prepaid or subscription... depends on your usage. Anyone who's unsure about the various plans and packages might be better off with a basic prepaid first, then change accordingly.

hmm..then i will put the medicine inside the check in luggage
1 more,if i buy liquor at klia 1st then don have any problem when check out at australia right?
Put everything that has to be declared into one single luggage so that you don't have to open them all and fish everything out. Of course sometimes the officers might ask you to open everything, but most of the time they're only interested in the declarable stuff that you ticked in the little form. So make life simple for them and yourself

Not sure about liquor taxes though... those who've done it before please share experience.
