Post Graduate Studies?

Went for a UK Education Fair today and met with many UK universities who offers Postgraduate Studies in Film & TV. These are the few that I've shortlisted. Time to learn more about these universities and search for potential scholarships to apply!

Miri...

Took a flight for a week stay in Miri right after the Cambodia trip last January. It was rather a 'down-the-memory-lane' trip than anything else. Upon arrival in the airport, I picked up the rental car and drove down to town for breakfast before visiting Curtin once more. The rain never stopped all through the days I was there, so there was nothing much I could do.

Visiting Curtin brought so much memories. Though the campus was rather quiet, I get to 'walkabout' and spend some time meeting lecturers. The campus grew slightly bigger; with an addition of a new building, but everything remained...and of course I had my favourite 'Full Moon Toast' as usual.

Many things were still the same, even the bottle Chrysanthemum Tea, but the price was much expensive than before. I drank the whole bottled in ice in a freezing cold weather. But heck, Sundrop and bottle Chrysanthemum tea is the best!

Having a cup of hot TehCPeng while reading newspaper in the early morning was so relaxing. It's rare to have such time to do nothing but to enjoy every minute of each day.

Though it was raining for the days I was in Miri, it never stopped me from getting myself to the beach and have some alone time (with some company of sandflies). I visited Tanjong Beach and was disappointed when seeing the beach in ruins. Thankfully, Esplanade was still clean and taken care of despite the monsoon weather bringing debris to the beach.

Miri has always been a great place to stay and it was home for a good two years during my study years in Curtin. The city has developed every passing year. I'll be back soon to see more changes!
