People have been asking to blog less about my thoughts, and blog more about what life is really like down under. Well if you are expecting something interesting, something wacky, something out of this world, then I suggest you stop reading now.
I've been going to the library for the past few days, attempting to study. I did make some progress in my accounting, clearing up quite a bit of my doubts. But for the most part, I've developed a slight prejudice towards certain students. I think I've been emitting some sort of beacon or something, everywhere I try to study, some annoying whisper, or loud discussion will be going on near by, and by near I mean 2metre radius, and I would get really really annoyed. Which would just destroy my whole mood to study.
I also had my hair cut today. The second one since my arrival. You know how when you've finished your cut, the hairdresser would ask if it is ok, if not you would tell them what adjustments you would like, and they would make the adjustments that you asked for. So, for my first time, I told her to cut it a bit shorter than it was, and she did as I requested. Then, at the end, she tried to style my hair with her Jap wax, and I could see in her face the dull look...Today, all I requested for was to trim the sides, and leave the top. After she was done, she asked the question, if it was ok, and I said yup. And she looked so delighted, she even gave me the thumbs up in the mirror and SAID, "Today looks good". Which got me thinking, what did she think my hair looked like the first time after the cut. By the way, it was the same hair stylist.
So that's life down under for you. Not so interesting now is it?
