In Melbourne

Life has been very, very hectic!

Psychiatrists' listed house moving as the second most significant stressor in a persons life. Try moving to another country and starting a new job at the same time!

There were numerous hurdles to overcome. Packing goods was backbreaking, tedious and painfull. Total damage; more than 800kg of goods sent...then there was financing to organize, visa's to chase....the list never seemed to stop

Upon landing, there was more fun and games to follow. Good thing, dad organized an apartment in the heart to Melbourne while waiting for our house in the suburbs to be settles.

Everything would have gone well if not for DHL's mess in delaying our goods! We managed to organize furniture(another nightmare! brand new self assemble furniture is not advisable when you a million things to settle-good second ones will do), a car. phones. internet.

Melbourne is indeed a very environmental conscious city, and all recycled garbage need to be recycled. Something we Malaysians should also take up seriously. Well, I don't have a recycle bin and had to take a car load of card board boxes to the recycling plant myself!

Mafeiftz had a baby during this time, congrats my friend!

We have been here for about two weeks now and things are falling in place. Tomorrow, I start work!
