Where is the School?

9th July 2007 (Monday)

Headed to school the next day... well, the purpose of our 'visit' here in Sydney is to study so of course we have to prioritise what was more important... Ikea or finding where the campus is. And of course, since our primary role is a student, we set out to look for the campus, time how long it takes to walk to school (because we learnt that the estimation of how long it takes to walk by the locals are SO not accurate). We were told 'Oh.. 30 minutes at the very most!' We ended up taking 40 minutes. 40 minutes walk to and fro school, 5 days a week. Will we have great legs after a year? Haha...

Heading to Cumberland campus... in a wet weather.
Aren't we SO hardworking and motivated? Haha...

After reporting our arrival and getting necessary information,
we took a bus and headed to the nearest train station - Lidcombe (another suburb).

At Lidcombe, we looked for the printing shop to refill our printer ink catridges. Apparently it seems that this is the norm over here. Instead of buying ink cartridges once it run out, you bring the empty cartridges and get them refilled at such shops. Not only is it a much cheaper alternative, it also protects the environment. We should really have such things in Singapore and cultivate this habit too!

At the printing shop... waiting for our cartridges to be refilled...

Afterwhich, we set out to look for a place to have dinner. In the end we decided on some 'local' food and settled for an eatery just beside the train station, which also happened to be next to the printing shop. Hahaha...

HUGE Hamburger and chips for dinner!

Juicy, thick and simply gooooooooood!
