What's my college like?

Let's see, it has been.... *calculating...* ONLY 5 DAYS since I've been to school?????

My gosh, it really does feel like I've been to school for ages now = =

Well, for those who want's to nose around my business here in new-city Perth, I haven't been doing much actually. I've been enrolled to this college called Canning College, just beside Curtin University and the subjects courses I'm taking are ELACS (English Language and Aboriginal Culture Studies) Module A & B, Chemistry, Human Biology, Mathematics 3C/D, and Mathematics Specialist 3C/D.

Uh huh~ A total of 5 subjects, but I might drop Human Bio or Mathematics Specialist if they get too hard tho, because they are not one of 'em pre-required courses to be able to study Genetics and Biotech. Only able to drop 1 tho, cause I need a minimum of 3 courses excluding ELACS (cause it's compulsary).

This whole week meant nothing else but school, and school works. Yeap, already had work on the 1st day, it's like they start late but they gotta rush everything now = =

I doubted myself in my first Chem class, thinking I doomed cause I was no where as fast as this two girls sitting beside me, but it turned out that I'm considered normal phased, they are just too genius! WHAT A RELIEF!

Plus, i pity the other classes who got really slow teachers, cause I got a taste of how it felt like having one for my first Chem class because we got a windows98-speed-substitution-teacher for my permanent teacher who had to attend a funeral ( so soi man! ), and it was z's all the way. He's boring! Not to mention, he kept up with the geniuses only. THANK GOD HE'S NOT TEACHING ME!!

However, our permanent teacher's really strict on a few things, like mobile phones, puctuality, shoes ( we need to wear closed ones for all science subjects) and whatever. But he's nice, the kind of teacher I wanted :D Happy happy HAPPI!

Other courses were ok... Oh! Let me tell u more about the school system!

We got to go to the course's respective rooms every period! No lockers! Meaning, we have to carry the heavy bags around for every period like crazy. Not to mention, if we have afternoon classes, we need to bring our own food cause the cafeteria food sucks till ugh.. donno how to say. haha... So, long lines at the microwaves every lunch.

But the good thing about this school is that we international students get to use this ISO (international student's office). We can refill our bottles not with tap water but filtered water, get to use the fridge there, get to hang out on the caoches there, get your mail there, ask for help and yada yada yada~ :D

Well, that kinda sums up what I felt about my school college (need to get use to that!) these 5 days. I might have a change of mind some time later. Will, try to keep my blog alive too, but looks like A LOT of people do not blog much nowadays. Can we blame facebook and twitter for that? LOL. sui bian la~ :D

Ciao beautiful people!
