1st day of orientation..

well it's just a series of admin talks which are damn boring.. things like 'u all muz pay ur bill on time hor..'

the orientation programme is qt boring actually, things like admin talks, instructions abt choosing courses and placement tests.. (RJ chem notes are becoming damn popular cos the cem placement test is on sunday..) no amazing race here, but the distance we travelled is not less than tt.. UM is so so so big.. I am staying in the North campus, which is damn far from the central campus where most of my lessons will be held..

erm u should be able to see from the maps below..
I am staying in Baits 1, which is on top of a hill.. only one bus which has not started running yet.. and there is a south campus where i dare not go n see yet..

my conclusion.. The US ppl like to waste land(maybe they can afford lah..) no multi story car park in the north campus.. the car park in front of our hall is bigger than the RJ track..

People have asked me why my name is so damn bloody hard to pronounce, I would say it's not my problem. Just in case anyone who is interested to find out what the name actually means, here it is:

萱 pronounces as xuan, is the flower called daylily pictured above;

仲 pronounces as zhong, means I am the second child in the family

弦弦诉人意,弓弓道世情

可以高贵,可以平凡
可以不问英雄出处
可以痴情风流的二胡
一弦可以大江东去
一弦可以月游西湖
一曲未了竟有琴弦启开江南
让俏丽的姑娘
用浓浓的茉莉花语
从红袖里伸出酥手
把一个河山香透

My Erhu, My Forever Love
