Brrrr...cold innnit?

It's been almost 2 weeks since i arrived. Class hasn't started yet though. It has been 2 weeks of inductions and its barely necessary. Friday will be the last induction and when i get my timetable. I guess the following week is work time!

Things here are damn expensive(i know i know...everyone has been saying it...so now's my turn)! To them is friggin cheap la...but to us...convert convert...T-T

I've never been so good at getting bargain items in my life! And eating stuff below 2 pounds is common between us malaysians.

Just ate maggi mee yesterday. The moment i put the noodles in my mouth, i instantly felt as thought i was back in malaysia. I guess it's been so long since eating something "malaysian" that i could feel that effect.

Well, it's actually 8am my time now so i don't know what ima gonna do the whole day today. This is one thing about having no classes. Hard to plan what to do! Aight...am gonna sign off now!! taa!!

Land of the Georgies Geordies.

UPDATE: I WAS WRONG. IT'S GEORDIES NOT GEORGIES. LAWL!

Finally! The internet connection is up!

It's cold!

I arrived in Newcastle 3 days ago with no internet connection to start of with. Even the phone in the flat wasn't working. I was all alone and felt so homesick to the point of feeling sick. Newcastle isn't actually a very nice place! It's the UK u'd expect with newsagents around every corner and at least one Primark/H&M/M&S/BHS .

One thing im suprised at is that Greggs, and english sandwich shop and Starbucks are located everywhere. And by everywhere meanign 3-4 around the city. 3-4 that I have SEEN. Who knows how many others are out there. Unlike Malaysia, it seems that they work for our convieniece rather that worrying of profit. That's something I need to research on.

Culture shock. I had a bit of it. What hit me most was that internet, WiFi isn't free. Starbucks, Maccas all have nothing but Hotspots (like streamyx hotspot in malaysia...need account to log in). That reasons why i haven't been ont the internet since i left malaysia. There was simply nowhere to get it!

Well, haven't been around too much yet, will be walking around with newly made friends all from malaysia(lol) today. Probly poke here and there abit..:P till then...taa!!


miss all of you guys very much!!
