Land Down Under

Oh My God I'm Back Again!! Yeap.. its like the second time I'm writing on this blog.. ( you noticed? i actually figured out how to upload a picture..haha) .... That's me in Fremantle, Western Australia...

It really wonderful to be here in Perth continuing the second phase of my training.. I've been studying like crazy through out my first phase in Seletar for my ATPL(Airline Transport Pilot License) exams.. Honestly, I've never study this hard in my whole life before...

This got me thinking... why was I so lazy before.. When I was younger, teaches and my parenst use to say I should be studying like 6 - 8 hours a day which I thought was IMPOSSIBLE.... But when I was studying for my ATPL exams.. I actually managed to put such hours in... hmmm.. amazing huh what one can do when they put their mind to it...

Well enough about studies.. I'm now based in Jandakot Airport, Perth... I arrived here last week and its winter here now... The weather is really cold and being a Malaysian who only experience cold climate when i go on holidays, in my faculty lecture halls or when I open a fridge, it takes time for me to adapt to it...

Was playing soccer with the guys here yesterday and after 2 hours in the cold I could hardly feel my fingers...haha... But that did not stop us from continuing as we need the exercise.. We are well fed here so much so we all are putting on weight... Man!! I'm like so fat now...

THE ACCOMODATION

The accomodation provided my the Singapore Flying College is truly magnificent. Its a hostel enviroment but nothing like the living conditions we experience in University Malaya.... The rooms are comfy, we have aircond/heater units that maintain the room at a certain temperature which we set. A very nice study table, internet access, reading lamp by the bed side..its just so cool.. We are even provided with towels which we can change anytime we want...They are just so sweet...

We have 2 laundry rooms here with each room having 10 super huge washing machines and guess what!! clothes dryer...wow...( the reason why I'm excited is cause in Malaysia its not common to own a dryer)..

We have a well equiped gym, its rather cramped but the equipments in there are just great.. Total body work out....

Kitchen!!! yeap yeap... kitchen is so so huge... we have like these super huge fridges which 6 people can fit in... Cool huh(If the weather is not cold enough, you know where to go).. We are provided with catered food and on Sundays we get fast food for lunch... Cool huh, no need spend a single cent.. Those who don't like the food given can cook their own food, we have unlimited supply of food and goodies which you can use for cooking...
