Orientation In School

Today was the first school activity that i went! The orientation was at 9am so by 730am, i was all up and ready to get prepared. By 9am, the Thais, Tom and me were all seated in this small lecture room waiting to be told wad to do. Sean, the in-charge gave us an introduction of USC. He also touch on the different faculties in USC, the school structure, as well as the teaching style here. He then proceeded to tell us all the little things that were prepared for us. Well actually the first half of the briefing wasnt that much coz wadever he said, i already know.

At about 12, we were given a break and told to go back at 2pm for the next half of the breifing. We went to the Welcome Party that was held for all International students. I was given a free T-shirt, free notepad, as well as a free file. We then had free Subs and cookies for lunch.

After lunch, it was onli 1230 so since the girls need to go have their TB test reading, i decided to go back to the apartment to rest awhile as i was realli tired. I then headed back to the apartment for a nap. Hee but at 2pm, i decided that i wanted to sleep so i skipped the 2nd half of the briefing. In the evening, Edgar asked me to go out (actually it had been planned few days ago le). While getting ready, i decided to do some laundry.

I just realised that there is a laundry room just 1 min walk from my apartment. Im such an idiot to only know now right. Ha so i went to the laundry room and used a washing machine for the first time in my life. Well it wasnt all so hard. It cost $1 each time and everyone is given a card which needs to be topped up with credit card.

Edgar picked me up at around 645pm and we headed to Universal Studio Citywalk to have dinner and catch a movie. We had mexican fast food called Rubios. The tacos were quite nice. Then, we watched Superbad. The movie tickets here damn expensive lor. Its like about 24 USD for 2 tickets. Damn ex right... And i thought Singapore was super ex...
After movie, we wanted to go to the place we went last weekend but because i didnt bring my passport (coz the other time the bartender told me that an ID would be sufficient so thats y i didnt bring my passport), i wasnt allowed in. So, we decided to shop around Universal studio as there were quite alot of realli nice shops. Hee retail therapy... I bought one realli nice pink cap for KHONG SHIHUI. Then i bought my first Doggers jersey! Hee initially when i saw the price for the normal adults one (bout 150 USD) i was like "WTF so ex. Dun buy le." Then i walked around and went to the youth section and i saw the white one with pink Doggers signature. It was so sweet. And it cost bout 60 USD. Less than half the price. I comtemplated for awhile and decided that since im in states, i have to get a Doggers jersey coz its juz too sweet (with the pink wordings and stuff).
After that i went to Abercrombire and Fitch. Its the first time that i ever seen an A&F outlet. It looked so posh. And its so much cheaper! I bought this really sweet PINK dress for like 35 USD. And i bought it fresh from an outlet. Nice rite... Khong shihui, do u need anything? Ha or maybe u can come buy it here urself in December coz u will definitely love it =)
By like 1130pm i decided to head home cos im going to FACTORY OUTLET tomorrow!! I cant wait! Kk's mum's gonna bring all of us to the Factory Outlet for shopping... Last retail therapy before school starts on Mon and i would be so busy... Hee...
I miss mummy, papa, jiejie, korkor, edwin, baby, eugene, and everyone! Hee too many names to include la... Oh ya and Kelvin dunno if u are reading this but u very funni hor. Always message me "dun forget to take lunch". Ha but thanks anyway for the reminder.
