I love this shirt!! It costs RM 59 so I did not buy it. ='(
A Canadian candy. =)
I went to college with my luggages.
I never knew that JPA send so many students to there.
There were around 200 scholars that were in the July intake with me.
Oh my, I felt so..bacause I think I brought one of the most luggages.
4 bags,but my mum brought 2 back.
We had a talk by JPA officer and the ICPU principal.
I made new friends there.
I am staying at an apatment.and if you wanna know how my unit looks like:
go to Gabrielle's blog.I'm gonna put up my pics later..I'm kinda busy at the moment.OH MY OH MY I did not know we are staying in the same place
until I read her blog yesterday!haha.
3 buses (if I am not mistaken) brought all the students and parents to Casa Subang.
I checked in to my unit.
I share my room with another roommate:
There is no air-conditioner.
But my bed is by the window,
so its cold like air conditioner at night. =)
Altogether there are 7 of us.
I am glad that my housemates are all nice people
I went to church at 5 something.
As far as I noticed, it is a really lively church,with people that love God.
Good preaching as well.
Monday,
we had talks again.
I made my student ID.
The coachcroaches gave me a very warm welcome in my bedroom and in the bathroom.
I certainly had no peace of mind while bathing because the coachcroaches was running so near my clothes.
My roommate managed to kill the one in my bedroom.
But...there is still one in the kitchen.
Tuesday,
My slippers got stolen. Long story.
Classes began.
I always have to change classes.
So we are consistently walking every time we change class periods.
The style of teaching is different from the Malaysian system,
every class contains different people from different courses
but under the same program,
International Canadian Pre-University.
For example, in my English 3U class,there are people that are taking Engineering whereas I will be taking Social Science in the future after this program ends.
Thus,I get to meet many people.
I saw a lot of Koreans from other classes and pretty ones too, but I did not really get the chance to make friends with them.How I wish my one of my classes got a Korean that is really from Korea.
My classes have people from Iran,Tanzania,Turkey,Kedah,
Perak,Penang,Sabah,Sibu,Pahang,Johor,KL and many other places.
The classes I am taking are under
Mass Communication/Humanities/Psychology
The subjects
Individuals and Families in a Diverse Society
English 3U
Canadian and World Issues: A Geographical Analyis
Break
Canadian and International Law
All my lecturers are all Canadians from Canada
They are really good.
Classes here are much more different
and everything is so high tech.
I really like the way the lecturers teach us.
We also use something called the blackboard 7.
Our assignments can be handed online.
And our presence or absence in class can be checked online.
We even have an air conditioned computer lab called
The Web that has hundreds of computer.
I taught my friends how to play guitar.
We spent quite some time just trying to tune the guitar
because I struggle a little at tuning by ear.
The electronic tuner on the guitar is not that accurate.
I taught them Tong Hua by Guang Liang.
I figured out the chords myself. =) I am happy that at least I can sorta play by ear.
For now, I really need a piano to play.
Before my Grade 7 skills run out.
Wednesday-I got my first or second assignment. Cool.
Thursday-Attended a Presentation Skills workshop because everyone has to go to 4 workshops out of 8.
Friday-finally I get to rest later after college finishes!
More updates and pics later.
I miss all my friends!!!!
Keep in touch!
