Make New Friends but NEVER Forget Old.

After all the application processes and documents, it’s all finally done. I’ll be leaving Malaysia on the 15 July, 2006 at 9.40am. I will be taking a 7 1/2 hour flight to Brisbane and arrive at Brisbane local time 7.10pm (Brisbane is Msia+2). From there a coach will bring me and 5 others to the University of Southern Queensland where I will be exiled to for the next 12 months. There will be many new things, new customs, new challenges, new hurdles, new friends, basically a new life. I am definitely going to miss all my friends here in Malaysia and will never forget you. A special THANK YOU to those of you who have been with me through tough times. I will be calling some good friends throughout the week, those who have deeply impacted me and left an impression in my life.

In preperation for studying abroad, I have purchased a notebook PC. A pretty ASUS A8J which comes with a T2300 1.66GHz Duo Core processor, an 80GB HDD, 2GB DDR2 667Mhz, Nvidia Go7300 256MB, DVD Writer along with a wide array of built in features like webcam, microphone, speaker, Wifi, Bluetooth, and stuff like that. I bought it on Tuesday (4/7/2007). Four days later, it’s competely destroyed. It won’t even boot up Win XP. I’m heading down to the shop on monday to get a 1 to 1 replacement. If I broke it in 4 days, I have no idea how it;s gonna last me 1 year in australia *gulp* (wish me good luck!!!) I e-mailed my parents already…If they were here I’m sure they would kill me…*sigh*

Lastly, I am switching MSN Messenger accounts. The current one if getting kinda messed up. Please add me.

My new MSN address is: me@jiarenlau.com.

It will work, trust me. I’ll will be slowly phasing out from my current account and shift to the new one. Thank you.
