Went to school for the first day..

Today went to our campus which is practically opposite to where we are staying.. Time to reach school? 2 mins? maybe 5min if the traffic is heavy.. Process was smooth but we still met with some problems as I think TMC is not doing their job properly.. we 4 are like aliens in the campus.. they just cant find our names and stuffs in their system.. whereas the other 3 singaporeans we saw at the briefing in singapore went through their process with no difficulties..

Spent about 3 hours for the enrolment in the end.. but was worth the wait as we all had finished all the neccessary stuffs for the study and now is just waiting for the semester to start. Then reached home, solved our internet access and wireless is working at last.. everyone is now in their room using the internet which was quite unusual as we would stayed up till late to watch tv and chat.. then we did went for a very short run along the pathway to Frankston.. Nice Day but Hot.. tomolo would be hotter.. good luck all...

Australia!!

Upload a few pics here first as the wireless internet is still unavailable. Everyone is getting their share of internet on only one ethernet cable... More pics when the things are settled....

Campus is right opp our house

City.. which we will not be going any sooner..

Reached Australia at last.. Pics of my room and the freeway to Frankston.. just some shots... Reached the house and then cousin was here to pick me up to go and find my aunt. Went to their house for a short visit and get my hands on Xbox 360 for the first time IN A HOUSE not OUTSIDE.. he got a huge plasma TV in his room i tink it is 42".. FANTASTIC.. need a car here really transport is like 20-30 mins away from here but the campus is just opposite the road of my house.. Nice weather.. End of the coming weekend, temperature going to reach 38 degrees.. SWEAT!!!

Laohu and Smurf has settled in here as well...haha..

INGS!!!!!!

Woohoo at last got my INGS bumper!! Here are the pictures..

Taipei!

Taiwan is a fun place.. Mostly were shopping, eating, shopping and eating (with some toilet breaks too) Took their metro which is the same as our MRT.. efficient and they have instructions that comes with 4 languages, Chinese, Hokkien, Hakka and English.. they have those glass doors that are of normal human height that blocks people from going down the train.. I think it would be a good concept for clementi mrt station as it is THE suicide ground for people.. But in Taipei they only use those doors where the stations have a high flow of people.. mainly in their metro interchange..

Pics are self explanatory

SATA inefficiency

Last week, things did not goes as planned for visa application and then after much pursuing to the SATA clinic.. I HAD ENOUGH!!! sent an email to their feedback and complain email address.. and this is what I get

Dear Naji,

Thank you so much for the feedback.

As explained with you over the phone, we have just got the report back to
the Clinic this morning.
My doctor has got it transferred appropriately to the new form sent in by
Australian Embassy.

Thank you for your advice on the medical form.
We've spoken with them to be more careful when giving the form to the
students
We have also requested for the sample form for our staff and future
students clients to avoid the same incident from happening again.

We have made necessary arrangement to dispatch your report to the
Australian Embassy tomorrow morning.

My sincere apologies for making you to come down for the unnecessary trip
yesterday.

Please feel free to call me should you require further assistance regarding
the medical report.

Thank you and best regards.

Yours Sincerely,

Rosalind Koh
Consultant, Health & Wellness

Subject: Complain of retrieval
of forms

Hi

On the 15th Jan, I went to the Woodlands clinic to do a checkup on for my
Australian Student Visa application. Then on the 18th, the Australian
Embassy called me and said that the form I submitted was wrong and needed
the clinic to take it back. I called back to the clinic to ask them if they

could help me to retrieve it back while I could pass them the new form. The

person who took my call has told me that on Monday the forms would be back.

Yesterday I went down to the clinic again and only to find that the person
was on leave and no one was in charge of the matter. I hope that you all
could resolve these matter as soon as possible as the visa application
needs
at least 10 days to process. I had already leave my forms together with the

fee for doctor's signature, in the clinic to fasten the process. Hope you
all could fasten the process too in retrieving the forms back as I had
enough of people working so inefficiently.

I would also like to suggest that they could help students who are going
abroad to identify their wrong submission of forms, instead of knowing the
forms as 26 and 160. Because what we need to submit are 26EH and 160EH
which
is different from 26A and 160A, if they had identify it first, these
troubles would not had happen.

Regards
Tan Naiji


In the end shooting and email does works somethings..

INGS

INGS bumper coming up soon!!

laugh

IT IS BLACK!!

Suitcase of my aussie trip.. Preparing for the Aussie study already.. eCOE is here, medical checkup done, Visa applied.. Air Tickets not yet paid only.. Had some stickers on the suitcase for easy recognition..

Went to LTA to help Candy convert her car to normal plate.. cost=$14737.. -.- then went to change the number plate.. saw my dream car of the moment beside it.. Candy went to take picture of it straight.. it was LOUD!! real LOUD.. but I like it.. haha (even though I told candy i dun, must be sour grapes)

Now I am just dreaming of putting an INGS kit on the Getz before I leave for my studies..

See the Getz is smiling.. Cos he is no more a weekend car!

sucks

cant get my XgL to work..
no more 3D..
haiz.. laptop is not capable of doing it..
need a macbook or something that is Core 2 Duo with a better graphics card..

-hmm-

Pondering Wondering Fondering

Ubuntu

cant get XgL to work so that i can have rotating desktop.. sucks..
I think its the graphics card in the laptop that makes it unworkable.. but Ubuntu is still fun!

Laptop

Recently installed Ubuntu into my laptop.. Nice.. but still cant get the 3D rotating Desktop, Compiz, to get it to work.. formatted the drive 3 times just to install it.. Actually did not wanted to install it but because of BenQ service center, PCS, that did not get their job done properly after paying $164 and giving me 5GB of unallocated space.. I decided to use that space to play with Ubuntu.. It is cool seeing that most of their software could let users do what windows could also do.. somemore that this OS is free and its by Linux.. Simply GLAM.. lots of programming to learn.. and YC told me to learn it.. yar yar I am not an IT student lehz.. how to get all this to be done??

YC.. come and help me to make my desktop rotate!!!
