uni started and freshies linger around the campus in bewilderment : "where the fuck is the lecture hall???"

first week is meant to be the introductory week for all the students , and of course the worst place of all will be the sardin-packed bookroom ( would strongly recommend not to go there if you just plan to get some free readings inside. )

To some of my friends ( and me of course ), firstweek will be our judging week which critising newcomers will be our main agenda.

to some extent , inevitably . we started talking how cool an oversea asian student can be in melbourne.

1)we normally would wear somethng decent , matched and branded to uni (LV can be quite popular in uni nowadays)

2)we care about image , we care what people think

3)we judge , and we dun want to be judged

4)we (most of us) are multi linguistic

5)we, everything can be business (that's the coolest i can think of to be an asian)

6)we, rarely have freckles (or not that obvious)

7)we, rarely possess BO (body odour)

and i guess more , more and more....
and here are some of the asian quality that i found in friendster :

are you asian? conditions are :

people take their shoes off when entering your house * you eat rice every day * you NEVER throw anything away * your house is decorated according to Feng-Shui * a pager or cell phone is a necessity to you * your hand instinctively forms the peace sign when taking a photo * you take pictures in airports and restaurants * you are always late * you take sticker pictures * you alwys wear brand name clothes like Hilfiger, FUBU, Polo, Nike etc. * you are a business major * you take studio group shots with your crew * you dance in a big circle with your friends when at a rave or club * you play pool and go to Karaoke bars * you own either a Honda, Toyota, Mercedes or BMW * you have more than 5 sms a day * you drink bubble tea
