7th July 2009 - 1st day in Australia (Day)

Arrived very early in the morning. Surprising, the airport was pretty crowded. Lined up for custom clearance cos i got FIVE PACKETS OF INSTANT NOODLES in my bag. Because of that, i waited for ONE HOUR PLUS... hahahaha....



Checked in into my hostel. It is so much better than i expected. It is clean and cosy.


We will be having share kitchen and dining area. (Though have not really use them till now.. hahaha)







After having a short rest, i went to Fountain Gate to do some shopping. Took a 15 mins bus and bought......















My 1st Metlink ticket :) For travelling in Zone 2 only







There was actually a little joke here. I took a bus there. Happily go shopping and bought too much stuffs. Got abit of difficult to carry the stuffs back. The best part was, i could not find the bus stand to find the way back to sch!!! walked aroung Fountain Gate hoping to find a cab. But, no cab at all!!!! Asked a bus driver, but dont seems to be willing to help.
Got a strong urge to throw all the stuffs away and find a way back. Then.... I saw a bus passing by me with stating...... 828 Berwick Station!!! i was stanted and started to find the right bus stand to take the bus. Finally, managed to find it :)

After im back, i realised that i was pretty brave. Running around though i am new to the place and find the way there and back myself... hahahaha It should be a very good start to my new life in Australia :)

Wasnt able to use internet for the whole day. THerefore, packed my stuffs nicely and it looked like this...







Looked tidy ya.... But, trust me, my place do not look like this anymore.... it is so untidy now!! hahaha
