So many things to settle.. hmmmm... lotsa questions marks floating around on my mind. School starts in February! but i still haven paid RMIT the first semester sch fees yet. my excuse is no time no time.. but then i think i gotta dig out some time..
so far, i've gotten the acceptance letter from Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology(RMIT), Edith Cowan University(ECU), Griffith University, Queensland University of Technology(QUT) and a letter from Monash University requesting for my portfolio of about 10-15 slides of my artwork. should i go prepare one? i would reckon it should be pretty easy if i wanna do one out but then... should i? when my mind's already set on RMIT? at the same time i'm curious whether they'll accept me.
how to settle accomodation thingy abroad? where will i live? who will i live with? when should i go over and accustome myself to the surroundings there? what stuff should i bring over? how much clothing should i bring over? what will happen to my handphone? render it redundant? or can i get a sim card over there using the same phone to use? can i bring a bicycle over? will it be costly? what files should i transfer into my lappie to bring over to aussie?
Questions ppl like to ask me about my impending overseas studies...why do ppl keep asking me these qns?
"so u're realli going abroad to study ah?"
do i not sound convincing? do i project that kinda say-for-the-sake-of-saying impression? i'm concerned that i dun exude and give the impression of i-mean-what-i-say.
"So.. who are you going with?"
why do ppl keep asking me who am i going with? is it a very unprepared and rashed decision to go alone? do i project the i-need-company-on-my-overseas-studies kinda image? or did forgotten to consider some facts which u could enlighten? i'm just curious and not qn-ing or challenging ur qn.. don't mean to be rude here in short..
"will you be able to earn back what u spent abroad? is studying for a degree worthwhile?"
firstly, i consider studying multimedia my interest. i did not study for the degree with making back more money in mind. that doesn't mean i dun intend to get my returns but rather din hv that as a first priority. i realli wanna upgrade myself on the multimedia side especially since i didn't study a lot about it in poly. shouldn't hv studied Engineering Informatics should hv taken Multimedia Infocomm Tech instead.
"RMIT can do distance-learning what.. why would u wanna spend so much to go overseas and study?"
coz.. i wanna fulfill a small dream of mine of experiencing living in a different country for a while. to build up my independance more. to be able to fend for myself. and oso to study multimedia and learn more about it.
C'Mon man! "After Army what's worse?!"
