O Week

This week is the start on Orientation for hubby..or O-week for short. Accompanied him for yesterday's program...but am staying at home today coz today's program only meant for students. An "illegal immigrant" without a student card can't attend. So here am I, with the whole morning and afternoon to.......do work (hope my boss sees this). Hubby couldn't believe I actually brought work along...ha, the convenience of a little thumb-drive.

This is officially my 10th day in Australia. Don't really have the feeling of being a tourist. Maybe that's good, coz maybe it means that I can really get used to the life here. But first, before I come over, I will store up all the HK, Jap, even korean movies in my hard disk. We're deprived of TV shows here. Night-time is boring. Imagine, buses stop running from 6pm onwards.

It has been a good 10 days. Time passed slowly..and I pray it will pass even slower for the next few days. We've been to Boonah, Gold Coast and of course, Brisbane city.

Nice things happened - Brook Cottage was heavenly and John Williams is a lovely old gentleman.

Funny things happened - Spent 1 hours plus trying to get home from city (trip back from Gold Coast). Thanks to hubby giving wrong info on train station. Should have alighted at South Brisbane station...but we went from Roma to Central, then back to Roma station. Well, that was a little adventure in itself.

Scary things happened - Everyday I will have "Encounters with the Creepy Crawlies". Scariest was the big spider at Brook Cottage.

But most of all, thank God for all things that happened. For the very fact that we are here safely and enjoying our second honey-moon.
