Day: Monday Time: 11:15 pm

…Yes it’s the beginning of the week and I realize how much I dislike Mondays as much as I hate Saturdays when I was in Oman. I guess it’s just that it’s workday that’s why. But wow when Fridays come you just can’t help your self-smiling but of course it’s the weekend…. but this is not what I wanted to discuss about. I was thinking today on my way back from the library with Susu or Selwa and we were talking about how did she managed to survive here. I guess it wasn’t easy for her as a first comer to the city such as Melbourne with no one she knows or anything I mean she is one of those girls who started from scratch luckily she had some few friends whom helped her at the beginning then just left her do the rest on her own…man that took a lot of courage and penchant. What should you do when you first come to a forgin place for studies since you are going to live for a while which is so not short? From (1-6) years …starting from your place back home you have to think for the future in another words think what, where, how, when, why…never leave home without them. They can save you a lot of trouble. Always ask don’t think that the answer will come to you, it won’t seek it your self…always think about your expenses and payments. The stuff you are going to buy. One of the worst things here in the city is that it’s hard to find a nice place to stay…believe me I got lucky والفضل يعود لله and like I said before I went in to a serious apartment hunting…always come prepped form where you are coming from you don’t want to look stupid or lost once you seat your foot here. Make sure you know someone here before leaving so that they will show you around and if you needed any help you know where to find it. But try to be more independent about things don’t always relay on that person all times it can be a drag sometimes. Especially if they were trying to be a nice as possible but like I said don’t over do it. You have to learn things for your self. Or else you will never survive!!
