QUOTE(Saigo @ Feb 16 2009, 12:58 AM) Sigh I'm not a really big fan of cooking. I don't believe in spending ages over cooking and then finishing it up in less than 20 minutes - doesn't seem that worth the effort. Oh, mind to tell what program are you doing? Is it IT? That is exactly what I'm doing - my college does twinning with RMIT, so I'm going there on my 3rd year (which is on the next sem).  |

QUOTE(Saigo @ Feb 18 2009, 12:06 PM) Sorry didn't see your question earlier.. I'm doing Econs & Finance. You're doing IT is it? Oh, I guess you are now studying in Taylor. I'm doing Computing, but syllabus is more or less the same with IT I suppose.Yeah I want to own one so I can get around without relying on public transport.. but then I gotta see for myself first la, like where I'm staying, how far is it from my uni, public transport's efficiency, etcetc. Thinking to transfer to RMIT is year 3, just don't know if it's possible or not. |

Normally what airline do you guys choose? I am going to Brisbane
I have surveyed AA, SIA and MAS, AA provide uo tp 30kg baggage allowance but SIA & MAS only up to 20KG, the only problem with AA is it land on Coolongatta Airport but not Brisbane International Airport. Any advise? I saw someone posted about SIA provide 40kg baggage allowance but have to buy the ticket in SIA office, I try calling them so many times, but always line busy. :S |

You want customer service right, go face to face.  Just called SIA office, they said student get 40kg baggage allowance but have to show offer letter, visa, and passport, I haven't accept offer yet as my parents can oly pay the deposit on jan, so can't buy it now.  I think I have to buy AA then... does the university from to Coolongatta to fetch student? I'm going to QUT. Anyone going on Feb 2010? |

QUOTE(sykz @ Dec 27 2009, 12:57 AM) I am! I bought SIA ticket at RM2158, will be getting the 40kg allowance once I get my visa approved. Maybe you can try out MAS GRADS @ http://www.malaysiaairlines.com/my/en/loyal/grads/grads.aspx . I bought the tix for RM2116 for one way flight to Brisbane from KL. Return flights with validity of one year available too at much cheaper rate. The hassle is to apply the card itself and going to cost you RM25. Compare to normal price fare, you still get it cheaper. Btw, anyone got ISIC card? Is it useful for students when we in Aussie? Rgds, sykz Hehe, when are you going there? Added on January 1, 2010, 11:40 pmAnymore going to QUT on feb? Gotta gather all of you guys. hehe... This post has been edited by DaViDcHiN: Jan 1 2010, 11:40 PM |

Is it normal for one to start paying rent end of Jan eventhough he arrived there on the second week of feb?
It sounds ridiculous for me, but I wonder if it is how it works. Now it's like buying durian, renting a room that I haven't seen it with my eyes. Then some peoples said, if I start looking for room when I reach there, most of the nice rooms will be occupied, left those expensive or not so nice 1. Anyone experience this? |
