Hello Canberra #2

ANU at the first glance

Getting up the next morning and we could say "Good morning Canberra!"
How cool was that?!!

Today is the first day of 'O' Week (orientation week), maka bergeraklah kami di pagi hari menuju ke ANU.




We stayed at Reid, thus we need to walk merentasi City dan terus ke ANU in Acton.
Dalam 25 minit berjalan kaki... sampailah ke ANU.

Melilau mata aku melihat keadaan sekeliling, maklumlah baru pertama kali ke negara orang, semuanya terasa asing, terasa janggal...

We've lots of mission today..

First thing is enrollment!
On the way to Melville Hall, jumpa Kak Nadia - selama ni hanya berbalas email dan mendengar nama, akhirnya bersua muka!

Kak Nadia buat pHD dekat ANU ni, same course as me! Biotechnology!
So, before we enroll Kak Nadia bagi la suggestions and advice about what elective subject should me and Umai choose - subject senang score, no essay, no participant in discussion

Based on Kak Nadia suggestions, I'm taking BIOL1009 - Diversity of Life and STAT1003 - Statistical Techniques as elective subjects (setakat ini, insyaAllah tak ada perubahan) alongside BIOL1003 - Evolution, Ecology & Genetics and CHEM1101 - Chemistry 1 as core subjects.

Then taking picture for my student ID!


Commonwealth Bank

Then we all bukak akaun dekat Commonwealth bank, there's a branch around ANU... dekat area Union Courts.
So, tak perlu pergi jauh-jauh~

Oh My Vodafone!

Selesai akaun bank, tibalah masa yang ditunggu-tunggu.
Smart phone!

Dekat sini, most students akan ambil Data Plan. Which means kita bayar a certain amount every month and we'll get a phone either for free or plus a little amount every month - depends on plan and phone model.
For my case....
I took a A$55 per month plan which is A$50 for plan plus A$5 for the smart phone - Samsung Galaxy S3
The plan have A$500 value, 500 MB data. And I choose to have unlimited Voda to Voda calls.

my S3!!
screen protector + casing for A$10

call for Voda to Voda is FREE and unlimited! so...pakailah Voda wahai bakal-bakal Australian sekalian! 
(jangan mengada nak pakai Optus! - bak kata seorang kakak ni~) haha XD

habis semua, jalanlah balik~

shot wajib ambik!

Angin bayu di Commonwealth Park

In the evening, we all pergi jalan-jalan dekat Commonwealth Park.


It's so windy that evening and it felt really cold~~


Kat sini jelah nak rasa golek-golek atas rumput...
Jadi? apa lagi? moh le kita!!
rumput dia tak tajam, memang rasa best jelah baring-baring bagai~

Kakak-kakak tu belanja we all pizzas from I Love New York, pizza dia sangat besar tau!


memang puas makan even seorang satu slice je pun~

One thing we're amazed here...
memandangkan sekarang ni masih summer, so siang lebih panjang...
gambar kat atas ni..actually dah pukul 8pm tau! tapi langit masih cerah~


Menurut Kak Fatima, when it's spring...there'll flower exhibition dekat park ni. Masa tu jelah Commonwealth Park ni penuh dengan orang dan jadi tourist spot.
Tak sabar nak tunggu spring kot!! >.<

Bila masuk maghrib, we all pergi ke satu-satunya masjid yang ada dekat Canberra ni.
Maaf tak ingat dekat area mana...but that place ada banyak bangunan-bangunan High Commision for many countries, including Malaysia~

Alhamdulillah...walaupun masjid tu takdelah besar mana..tapi sangat bersih dan selesa~

we all solat maghrib dulu~
