After all the delayed posts about past events, I decided to modify my blogging style. I will no longer be posting photos here since it will appear in my Facebook profile anyway. So by just blogging with words, I will not be so overwhelmed and I will update my blog much more frequently. Hence, be sure to check this as much as I blog.
By this evolution shown through my blog header, I have uploaded those past photos onto my Facebook profile few hours ago. They include first KTV session with Su Ling, Alex, Mei San, Jocelyn and Shi Hui; Yew Wooi and Shan Lung’s birthday bash.
PRESENT
So the important update that you will be granted by reading this post is that:
I WILL NOT BE GOING TO AUSTRALIA NEXT YEAR!
Despite this, I kept telling myself and my friends that today was the last day of college. I’m sure this was the day I would see some of my course mates for the last time. This seems sad but the good news here is I’m staying. I’m overjoyed with the decision I have made currently. Hope I don’t change it again.
For specific details:
I’m not going to UWA because after some research done, my parents found out that UniSA is more specialised in business courses and it is well recognised in Australia and Europe. On the other hand, UWA is just popular for its Go8 status and high ranking but it is more towards the engineering faculty. Furthermore, I was shocked knowing that UniSA has almost 3 times the number of students than UWA for the business faculty.
I’m going to UniSA on the final year instead of the 2nd year even though my parents want me to stay there for 2 years to have more exposure and experience towards the international culture. I convinced them by further editing my study plan to doing a double degree which means I will extend my studies there for 1 more year.
So that’s it! Good news to most of you, hopefully. ^^

May I know where your research come from?
I am interested in it because me and my friends have been thinking that UNISA sucks for almost two and a half years (since we study in Taylor's)
It is because the business course of Unisa is obviously easier than the equivalent course of GO8 and I am sure that UWA's commerce and finance's syllabus is harder and more challenging than ours because I have friends studying there.
This question is asked out of curiosity, hope you can answer me =)
u think it sux, then why u still stay back?
we have been asking around those people who have the expertise and knowledge
1) the people from IDP Education, cause they are neutral in terms of uni recommendation, but they can give true and non-bias information
2) my parents' friends who are staying in australia / have children already graduated from australia / employers, they are saying ranking / Go8 is not as important as the specialty of a uni
hmm. because I got scholarship here and I do not have money to go anywhere else. Even though I think it is not good enough but I will just stay and try my best here.
Hmm.. maybe what we consider is just superficial and actually this course is not as bad as what we think.
Anyway, thanks for your information. =)It lets me see another perspective about our college =)
And maybe I think Taylor's and Unisa are two different uni. For me I would stay in Malaysia for 3 years so I guess I would be indifferent of getting a Unisa's degree or other uni's degree. No matter which Uni's degree we hold, we are still a graduate from Malaysia. If you come back from overseas then maybe the University's reputation will carry more. Furthermore, I am grateful that I can study for free and be thankful to Taylor's because it provides good facility and good lecturers =)
yeah, its not as bad as we thought so (according to the graduates)
Wao... What a deep discussion XD
Lol, just to respond to your blog... good to hear that you are staying, but the best part will be when you "rescue" us XD [JK]
ching yee, one of the reason why im staying is for us to rescue each other
u will understand wat im saying next sem
lolx
