USFP orientation...

first day was kinda boring....felt so left out....chinese, indonesians everywhere...even if the're japanes, korean or thai, i couldn't tell coz they all look alike...i was wondering where all the singaporeans at....finally found a few at the end of the day whn the staff were returning our passports...yay..
so today we had a country grouping, so we met all the singaporeans in the sept07 and feb08 batch...how exciting...though felt kinda shy, though i'm like the oldest girl there...kinda sad...the rest were 17 and 18 this yr...the guys are 23...went out to Pavarotti to eat pizza...it was real good...thin crust pizza are the best...and we're most likely to go out for dinner on sunday to celebrate chinese new year :D...had maths and chem test today...its just to see how well we know the subj...after the math paper, finally know how rusty my math is...but the chempaper was surprisingly easy...its like primary sch sci...haha, but of course it wouldn't be tt easy for the actual chemistry subjects...lots of english in there so might be tough for some of the non-english speaking students...u shld hv seen how many ppl sat for the chem tests...there were loads, not sure if they knew they only hv to do it if they're taking chem or they're just following the schedule...the staff there were shocked by the numbers haha..
on the way hm, i was approached by this oz gal in blue...knew she wanted to start a conversation so i took off my earpiece and the first thing she asked was,"Are you happy today?" i'm like, "yeaah". guess she wanted me to join/support some youth campaign trying to promote a healthy fun and friendly lifestyle or sth...haha, kinda new to this..and on sunday, its the first time i saw ppl selling raffle tickets...
bought 2nd hand textbook frm this girl lita, she's frm anderson sec, indon though, currently doin nutrition in usyd...saw her notice on the college board...sms her and tada...i saved more than a $100 on books...talked to her for like 40-50min at world square...haha finally a gd long conversation in a while..flipped through the books...looks kinda secondary school-ish...but i may nvr know....haven't read anything yet...haha but the pictures are pretty...
finally found the cheapest dinner ever...mie goreng sedaap...omg, its the cheapest thing i've bought so far, $0.40 each, i bought 2 packs...askedthe lady how much it will cost if i buy a whole carton (40 packs) and she said $10....omg she's like my saviour tt could last me for 2-3wks...even a mth or so coz i can't possibly eat the same thing everyday...so bfast has been toasted raisin bread with margarine together with milk...almost getting sick of tt, but need to finish it b4 it expires...then will i hv my choice of cereals, or nestum...oh yeah...finnaly found those microwavable popcorns....haven't tried it yet but yeah, i think it will be good...currently waiting for my clothes to dry in the dryer before i can iron it...might do tt tmr though...waiting for little britain to air..hehe
