A Brand New Start In Kuching...

Hello people!

today's my first non "UPDATES!" post here in my blog. well, the thing is that there isn't any need to "UPDATES!" anymore coz i'm finally back in Kuching, and now i'm staying in the hostel.

wow. that's what i can say about Swinburne after coming back.

the reason i said "wow" was because, well, the "wow" factor is present, that's why. haha

there have been some changes to Swinburne. the most noticeable one is the presence of hums at some parts of the road. and yesterday, some workers were repainting the "Black and White" thingy. i seriously have no idea what that is called, but i think the Swinburne-ians will notice that. haha

and next, in the hostel, new pillows are now used, instead of the old and dirty plus smelly pillows that people always put away. haha. and also, a hot & cold shower is now available in the shower room. i think there is one in every floor. right now, there aren't much students here, and so the hot shower is still not (that much) used. when the semester starts, i think everyone would fight for it. haha.

next, another upgrade is the big, and i mean HUGE aircon that blows like there is a gale or something. not really exaggerating, but you can definitely see some of the signs supported by the ceiling would swing crazily in response to the heavy wind coming out of the aircon. yesterday, i went to the library coz it was too darn hot, and i also noticed that the lockers by the entrance have been removed as well.

i didn't go to the computers' section, and so i don't know if there are any changes to it. lol.

the bookshelves have been rearranged. now, all of the tables are found in the middle of the library, and the ones (tables) by the left side still remain over there. and so are the self-study tables by the right side.

talking means nothing. i'll let you guys check it out for yourselves. haha.




the huge air-con that i was talking about




and now, i am living in the new hostel, still fan-based, (not rich enough to live in air-conditioned rooms), and here are some pictures of the view from my window. enjoy. haha

i love this one the most





and oh, speaking of hostel, i have a new roommate. and this roommate is, in my opinion, the best roommate that i could ever get. he's polite and speaks gently (no cursing), and he makes me feel respected (unlike someone i know :P) by telling me that he'd be leaving the room for awhile or so. and we kinda prefer to mind our own business, which is cool by me. hehe. and he's taking degree in Business. he's Chai Zheng Yang. no idea if he has any christian names like i do, (although i ain't christian), coz we don't really speak to each other unless that we are going out or something. haha. whatever... hahahaha

hm.. hope you guys enjoy this post. i will take more pictures to be shared with you guys some time soon... hahaha... :)

so until then, this has been Joey the Only. :)
