.::. Moved .::.

In case people are wondering what happened to me, I've moved! I moved to Malmo to share an apartment with one taiwanese girl and it has been great. I finally feel 'at home' and got settled down. The first week was hellish, I was so homesick and I really didn't like the place that I stayed. It didn't help that I didn't know anyone yet and felt so alone. But things really picked up since then, and I'm starting to enjoy my days here.

I've been really busy since moving last Friday. My luggage was crazy and the handle broke!! *sigh. I knew those lousy soft case can't be trusted. I hope it can last and let me bring my stuff home. The weekend was filled with full-day tours and we went to Anny's and Emma's place for dinner again. Then I went to Ikea and bought lots of stuff and carried everything home myself. And today, we got a big second-hand microwave oven and moved it back home. So tired!!

I'm really very touched to have met very nice people here. If not for them, life really wouldn't be so easy here. Thank you Fai, Aom, Chia Sui for helping me move my stuff! And there's Anny, Emma and Henry who makes staying here so much fun. It's great to speak chinese at home and have a group of taiwanese friends since there's so much we've in common and things we eat. Hahs. Emma made really nice desserts that day!

I haven't got internet and it sucks big time. Otherwise, everything is perfect. We've got an oven, microwave, toaster, coffeemaker and hot water boiler at home! We're waiting for the bill to come so that we can pay and they can send us the modem and stuff. Hopefully we can get it by next week.

School started on Monday and everyone seem to have got their textbooks. *sigh. I can foresee how much I'll have to get done within the next month or two. Things are mad expensive here. Textbooks cost $150 and journals which they complie for us to read cost $15.

Guess friends are really important when you're so far away from home. I'm really thankful for them. Have got MANY pictures, but guess that has to wait till I get internet at home.
