Well..All this while i trying to find a share room in the city

Guess WAT???

I FOUND ONE!!!!!

I found it on Saturday 30 August!!

i went to have to look at the room on sunday bec that was the only day the gal is available.

So i prepare my money and went to have a look with the room...

Guess AGAIN!!!

The gal is same college as me and i kinda seen her before in college.. so i went to have a look with the room although it was small but i like it. so i do it fast by paying cash straight away.



From a big room i shifted to a small shared room..

i shifted on the 14 September.. It was a hard time for me that time and tiring for a gal to travel from my old house to new house. it takes 30min to travel thru and back everytime.. Actually i was so thankfull that my pevious roomate help me to shift my things. it was so great and good of her helping me to shift. Actualy i asked my frens in college. But all not able to make it. so decided to do it with my roomate..luckily got her..If not i dunno when i able to finish shifting.. maybe need to shift for 3 days if i shift alone.



On 14 sept alone itself i shifted since morning 11 am til 10pm..Imagine How much and how long!!!!

But we go 3 rounds... But it took so long!!! and two of us only!!!!!!!!!! (sob sob)



Well now i am happy in this new house and i feel warm too...Near to college no need to pay so much.. so good...keke...



But the oli thing is in my mind now is getting a job.. I tried very hard to find a job as a kitchen hand in a western restaurant.. But i could not get it..It has been two month i tried to find..Until now i Fail!!!!!



On the 8 sept my college had Career Expo means that there are a lot of hotels and caterer will be coming to out college to tell us more about their stuff. Besides that we might be hired by them by giving our resume to them..



So i did go, and have a lot of fun knowing a lot of well known hotel and catering. I hand in my resume to them but until now i did not get any respon from them.. So i decide to go online to apply for job and send my resume. yet no body reply.



But i wont give up, God is with me. God will provide me a job and a very good job for me...

i believe in him.. It need is time....i will try my best to go around to find a job..

hopefully can get one as a kitchen hand in western restaurant..to gain experience..

Then my class started, the first time i was so sad and stress up with my life!!Bec i had a lot of trouble due to transportation and getting up early to go college just to save money!! But now i manage to settle this!!! haha~~ want to know how?? continue read this~~

The first time to college was very unusual for me.. bec i din have a lot of fren and i feel so lonely.. But God's grace that i had two korean fren we did talk a lot but we are in different class.. So i am lonely again have to face new frens again..

After a few weeks of class in college i manage myself to have some cool and nice frens around me.. However i was stress about house and transportation again and college assignment. I manage to handle it one by one.. First i manage to pass up my college assignment. Although i had difficulty bec i dunno wat the lecturer aspect on us.. i was worry.. When i got back my paper i got a good result..
After a few weeks in partical class we had exam..Fast right? Yup.. is fast.. i nearly every week got pratical and theory exam for the hands on.. Do you think is good? i think is good in some ways.. keke...
We had a research project that regarding the market. So we went to market to do research.. Do you know wat???
