Have been here for exactly 2 weeks now, it seems to be getting colder by the day too. Honestly, I haven't got used to the weather here still. It could be hot in the afternoon, ranging from about 25 to even 33, and then dropping to about 14 to 15 at night. No clue why, plus the fact that it is Summer now, I am scared to death on what I will have to face during Winter. :X

I guess it is about time to talk about my uni. :)

Where I am studying at, is called Monash Clayton. This campus is the biggest campus of Monash as compared to the other... 5 campuses Monash has all around Melbourne. Other campuses are, Parkville, Caulfield, Berwick, Gippsland and Peninsula. Would have to say I got really estatic that i got accepted into Clayton, as the requirements here are the highest amongst all 6. Initially I thought I would be the only one of my peers, roaming around the Clayton grounds completely alone, but no, I found out that I will be accompanied by at least 7 others of whom took AusMat with me the previous year. I didn't feel like i was that alone anymore, somehow. It did lifted me a little. :P

Clayton campus is so huge that a map is really necessary to have when roaming around the grounds. Walking would be the best way to get around in campus, but i guess a bicycle would have about the same advantage as walkers around here too. Best ways to walk around campus is to sneak and walk through buildings to get to the other block of building. On second thought, the bicycle wouldn't even have excess through the buildings, heh, i shall take back my words now. :X But the campus is really that big. And the roadways are only on the outer side of the whole are. As mentioned earlier, it is after all the BIGGEST campus out of all the campuses Monash has, I guess this was really expected. :X

The buildings here look pretty oldish but not too oldish at the same time. Am not too sure how long this campus has been around, but I do like how the conditions of the buildings and the lawns are here. They have this bus loop where several buses will stop by and provide easy excess form of transportation for students and staffs alike. Parking here, however is a problem though. One has to have a parking permit in order to park in the area. There are only 2 parking bays around here, which means you would still need to walk quite a distance to where ever you are headed to. As for me, where i live is considerably near. However, it has been my 2nd day walking home from campus, I have very little to NOT complain about. :P

And the complaining commences:
- it takes me half an hour to walk
- for a silly person like me who always has a lot of stuff in my backpack, it tends to strain my back for a bit
- for a very unhealthy person like me to walk such a distance after a whole year of not exercising at all, it tends to be a little bit too tiring
- it gets pretty hot in the afternoon
- eventhough it's hot, the wind blows and it turns chilly. it confuses me whether to be wearing thick clothings or light clothings
- threats of rain

With all these complaints, I know I shouldn't be the princess complaining about it. But honestly, I think getting a bicycle would help alot. But as of now, I'm still thinking whether I should stop complaining like a princess or I should just get a bike and that would be the end of the complaints.

hrmmm.
Maybe I should give it a months try on this walking thing. At least give it another go, maybe? Maybe I could actually get used to it by the end of next month... just maybe.

Though as of now, I am proud to say that I am a student here in Monash Clayton. Without fail, I must have this constant reminder that I had narrowly made to cut from getting into this Uni. And since I am here now, I am going to appreciate every moment I have here. :)

I am a Monash Clayton student.
