HAPPY 100TH DAY IN MELBOURNE!!!!

11th May 2010
100th Day in Melbourne
COOOOOLD

Happy 100th day to myself!!!! Time flies i admit..today's already the 100th day i'm here alone in Melbourne...I'm counting down how many more 100 days do i have in Melbourne before i can go back home and be with my family and friends...It's not that i'm being forced to come here, in fact, i wanted to come here. But, having to be away from family, friends and job to be here, is it all worth it?? Though it's been 3 months, but i have not in the slightest miss home less than 3 months back..but at least, 100 days have passed and i'm really hoping that the many more 100 days will pass soon..

It's getting really cold here in Melbourne...today's 8 degrees and raining...Autumn's here, soon gone and winter's coming!! The day starts to get dark at 530pm and i'm having my dinner the same time cause my brain tells my stomach that at 530pm, the sky is dark so it must be dinner-time...hehe...Autumn's nice, you see all the leaves turning red and falling down...so romantic rite?

Finally my research topic has been finalised and although the data still looks crap, all my supervisors seem to think otherwise..And i got to thank my supervisor CS for being so on the ball on the time, cause she actually thinks that i should go apply for a grant of about 25k...oh my! Is she being too ambitious and she really thinks i'm up to it? Went to NARI (my research place) yesterday and finally i get to have an office to work in and a student badge...It's so silly of me to sound all so excited about something as simple as that rite? But, it's been 100 days of me hanging around and not having my research confirmed till yesterday..To be honest, it's the best i can secure right now at this point in time...i really need to move forward if i really want to graduate in 3 years time..Seriously!

You know what? My research place is near the Zoo, and besides it, it's a public golf course (There's plenty of land in Melbourne)! So maybe i should pick up golfing during my time here!
