The new kid on the block

I hate to do recaps but i've been here for close to 2 weeks and this blog is screaming UPDATE! It's like a ticking time bomb i can't ignore. I hope I have not lost half of my readers yet... (crossing fingers tight!)

I would reckon the question most of you would be asking me is, how are you doing? Well, I would say i am settling down fine thanks to the heaps of help i get from my friends---Yik Han, Jessie, Yan, etc etc. This new kid on the block is slowly yet steadily nestling into Melbourne's warm blanket (I still get fidgety over unsettled matters like my Internet connection and part time jobs though but it's just typical me....anyone who knows me long enough know that i have this itch when things aren't settled). About a week ago, I slept on the benches of Melbourne airport for a night with my backpack as pillow. Now however, I can slip comfortably under my warm down-feather Ikea quilt every night in a decent small room i call home. I've made my way around the city and got slightly terrified by it on the third night. I've been to the Market, done my weekly grocery shopping at the local supermarkets. Been to Ikea, Richmond to hunt for my quilt and duvets. Been to the summer night market which is the biggest international food fair i've ever visited in my life! Been to the Southbank promenade along the Yarra River where a wide range of alfresco restaurants and the Crown Casino is situated at. Drank hot chocolate, chilli chocolate, ate Spanish churros and the famous (i was told) Greco cakes. Ate homecooked dinner at a new frien'd apartment. Took adventurous yet scary lone walks at Princess Park at night. Toured around my Uni, drawn up a timetable, selected my Major and courses.... all these in less than 14 days, I would say, I am fitting in more than alright.

Of course, half of these eye opening experiences would've been impossible if not for friends like Yik Han who makes sure I am not left out.

It's a huge baby step, dont you think? =)
