ida's 1st year, 2nd semester in monash

after being back home in singapore for more than a month, ida is on her way to melbourne to pursue the 2nd semester of her first year course of study at monash university. ivy, who graduated last year from monash, will be at the airport to meet her to drive her back to clayton.

ida did not sleep last night and she stayed up in the company of dorcas and desmond, her former pjc mates. early this morning, her former secondary schoolmates jill, sin yee and rong choo came to the house and left together with us for the airport. jill, who has just got her driving licence, drove her father's mpv. on the way, they stopped at pending road in bukit panjang to pick vanessa.

jill, her bukit view secondary school's classmate, will be going to paris (france) in march to do a course in french pastry and culinary. she has plans to set up an eatery when she has gained enough skill and experience. told her i would like to be considered for mopping and clearing tables.

this being my first time at t3, i had expected to be wowed by it. it could be that i had come to expect t3 to be bigger than t2 and t1, so the impact was not there. it is quite visitor-friendly with the directional signs at the right places. still, i had some problem locating the car. i thought i had parked at basement 2, when, in fact, it was basement 1.

as usual, while waiting for departure, we had some light makan at one of the eateries. we had drinks and some toast at wang's cafe which is next to coffee bean.
