-=(*Ex Ex Ex*)=-

Wah lao, everything in Perth is so freaking ex!!

I discovered this shocking fact since day 1 when I touched down in Perth.. Hai, worse still when the Australian Dollar is stronger than Singapore Dollar.. sobz.. This is one thing that im still not used though I haf been in Perth for like 5 weeks now. Let me list u some things as examples.

Item: AUD $ SIN $
1. Bus Rides 0.80 0.55
2. Textbooks 120 60 (omg!)
3. Colgate 4.00 1.70?
4. Shuttlecocks 21.00 10
5. Develop photos 0.45 each 0.20 each
6. A meal 10.00 3.00

See the contrast? Gosh, studying in Perth will make my parents broke! Must start to save le. So far, my financial records shows that I already spent 1.5k AUD *faints.. not including accommodation, if wanna add accomdation, I think so far I spent 3k. lol.. accomdation is like damn ex in Currie Hall (the residential college near my UNI).. I pay AUD 263 a week! Of cos, wif 3 meals provided per day, and housekeeping service.. (housekeeping, not room service!). If u guys are gud wif maths, that equates to abt AUD 35 a day! Gosh.. that’s really expensive!

Right now, im trying my best to save, well, there are cheap stuff in perth. Like electronic goods, well, most electronic stuff! Other than that, I cant think of any cheap stuff here.. oh yes… booze and cigarettes are cheap here.. but I dun booze nor smoke.. so it doesn’t affect me.. lol

Other than that, im doing fine here! So peeps out there dun wry abt me. Im a big boy now.. lol

Cheers mates!
