Shipster's Love

Hai!

Korang pernah ada sahabat baik tak? Sahabat yang macam hidup mati kau, kawan ah. Hah, cengituuu. Haha. Hari ni dok belek belek gambar lama dalam laptop. Takde la lama mana pun. Cuma beberapa tahun yang lalu, saat saat aku masih di Adelaide mengharungi denai denai kehidupan. Kalau dulu zaman sama sama bujang, sekarang sorang dah nikah dah alhamdulillah :) Habis dah semua bertaburan kat merata Malaysia sebab dah back for good, cuma yang dah nikah tu je yang tertinggal lagi kat Australia since she has another semester to go. Husband dia pun dok belajar lagi kat sana, so no worries lah kan, 3 orang kawan balik Malaysia, dapat sorang husband yang boleh jaga dia lagi power dari kteorang bertiga ni. Boleh bagi duit poket lagi. Untung laaah. Hmmmm..

Sebenarnya dah lagi seminggu nak masuk fasa baru jadi Research Assistant, teringat pulak kat dorang yang dulu jadi housemates yang penuh setia kt Adelaide tu. Hidup aku yang penuh onak duri kat sana, semuanya tenang dengan kehadiran mereka. Pastu aku pun mulalah mengadu kat dorang, "nanti kat kuantan siapa nak jadi kawan aku weii". T.T walaupun aku ni senang buat kawan tapi Shipsterian ni terlalu unik, yang aku takkan lupakan korang sampai bila bilaa. 

My Shipster's housemates are like this; you know I'll be there even if you are too busy to call up for me :') Kalau pepagi yang akan jadi jemah tu haruslah aku dengan kak mas sebab kteorang yang paling awal bangun pagi dan tak tidur lepas subuh. Pastu part time job kteorang pun kteorang settlekan selepas subuh, masa winter tuhan je lah tahu menggigil aku hantar katalog kat rumah orang. Peluh pun tak kauu dah 2 3 degree je pagi tu. 

Mengadu berat badan naik sambil makan tak henti pagi dan petang adalah hobi. Rumah memang meriah dengan makanan. You know there are people yang craving for malaysian food, pastu kalau buat tu mau berkilo kilo. Contohnya nak makan mee goreng, pack yang jual tu ada 1kg je, memang kau masak habiskan lah 1kg boleh makan sampai besok pagi. Tetiba kak mas nak makan masakan sabah pulak, dahh keluar nasik lalap bah. Nasi kerabu semua ada. You named it! Cendol pun kteorang penah buat hokay. Pisang goreng cheese haha walaupun pisang yang tak sesuai pun kteorang goreng je, dah tu je yang ada. 

Aku setiap minggu haruslah pack dengan usrah, daurah mabit tambah dengan assignments and tests every week pastu aku repeat subject pulak sbb fail, dan macam macam lagi. Kalau korang ajak aku tengok movie ke drama ke, yer memang aku tak tengok sebab aku takde masa pun nk tengok haha. Kadangkan, kebahagian satu satu rumah bujang tu terletak kepada understanding, give and take & time spent. Alaah, sama je konsep dia macam orang kawin. Kalau korang nampak cawan tak sempat basuh tu, tolong lah basuhkan. Kalau ada baju yang tak terjemur dalam mesin basuh tu, mesti ada antara dorang yang jemurkan. Kadang kadang baju pun dorang tolong angkatkan, cuma tak lipat je sebab dalam rumah tu semua berat hati bila tang lipat kain. haha. Bila toilet roll dah habis, akan ada orang yang pegi beli. Shout je dalam group, sape yang kat city & possible nak pegi beli mesti akan ada punya. Susu pun sama. Barang tenusu tu wajib dalam fridge. Tak lupa juga carrot, potatoes dan frozen chillies. Haihh, rindu weekend outing dengan housemates utk beli barang groceries. Kalau dah rasa lama sangat tak kumpul 4 orang semua orang akan cari masa sama sama, malam tu hang out ke, pegi makan ayam hot star sama sama dan lepak kat victoria square sambil makan mother's crepe. Lepaihtu mula sorang sorang mengenang nasib. 

Transport selalunya kteorang takde problem sebab dah beli kereta dan setiap kali sesape nk keluar rumah atau nk guna kereta akan shout dalam group rumah. So semua orang akan susun masa dengan baik sekali. Aku selalu terharu kalau dorang akan amik & hantar aku pegi usrah. Kadang tu usrah habis lewat malam. But dorang still akan keluar dan jemput aku. Kadang tu aku kena masak untuk program program bagai, kalau dorang free dorang mesti akan tolong aku packing makanan. Rumah pun boleh jadi rumah program dah sebab dorang tak kisah pun. Pernah kteorang buat mabit dan daurah kat bilik aku. Samalah dengan hajar. Hajar ni busy woman sebab part time job dia ni dah macam full time job dah aku tgk. Dia kerja accountant manager kat women muslim association. Kadang tu aku kena hantar dia pagi pagii lagi sebab kena masuk kerja awal en. 

One of our ways to support each other, kteorang akan pegi event/visit sekejap pun jadi lah if one of us jadi organiser untuk certain program. Aku memang memedang berprogram, hajar & kak mas. Ada sekali tu aku dengan ain satu group symposium untuk subject infection & immunity, dorang yang study commerce ni sanggup datang dan duduk dengar walaupun dorang tak faham apa. haha. Event event hajar mesti kteorang dia angkut sekali, jadi volunteer pun boleh hah. Disebabkan rumah takde ruang tamu, meja makan is the best place utk lepak. Berejam boleh gossip kat dapur, takpun masa masa tunggu orang tengah masak tu amik lah masa borak borak kejap ke en. Makan sekali pun penting.

Whatsapp group rumah 'Shipster's Love' selalu je bising. Nasib baik cinta shipster tu tak pernah pudar ;') Cerita pasal pergi kenduri kawin orang lah, serius weh, kawan kawan kawin macam air, berderet kenduri jenuh aku susun -.- Tak kurang juga dengan gosip cerita yang meletop letop hot sekarang, sampai kat kteorang dah jadi, Descendant of Semporna pulak. hahaha. Korang kena tahuu, kak mas sekarang jangan main main dah dengan dia, future dah nampak sikit dah nak jadi macam cerita korea army melodrama, cuma kak mas tour guide je, bukan doktor. hehehe.

Selepas berdas-das whatsapp group tu meriah dengan gambar makanan yang Ain upload sebab dia masak kat Aiman (her husband), suasana pun jadi emosi sebab Ain kata Adelaide dah takde sape dah, nak masak fancy fancy kat rumah. Kalau balik Adelaide pun tak seronok sebab current housemates tak macam kteorang. Housemate baru dia nice aja cuma korang tahu lah bila dah final year, semua orang akan cam moved sikit, wondering; "kegilaan apakah ini" Hahaha. Final year ialah tahun yang bagi aku ; back off semua orang yang nk memusnahkan kehidupan aku. I JUST WANT TO GRAD, THAT'S ALL. Puas hati guna caps lock lol. So housemate semua busy, mostly dorang amik farmasi. Lagi lah kan.

Study kat oversea tu bukan satu perkara yang mudah dan tak juga susah. Adaptation in terms of everything. Cara hidup, loghat, pastu kau nak kena amik tahu pasal service kat sana sebab kau kena uruskan bil bil eletrik, internet, gas semua sendiri. Kena pulak toilet rosak lah apa la dah kena panggil plumber pulak. Study lagi, accent dorang mashaAllah haha. Dengan dorang yang on time dan tak pernah pernah cancel class. Pastu bila kau stress lalu sebelah kedai makan, kau pun terasa nak makan puas puas sebab time tu sejuk dan lapar, tapi sebab tak halal dan kau kena tahan nafsu sambil tunggu bas nak balik rumah. Bila dah sampai rumah, kau tak boleh direct makan tapi kena masak dulu la pulak dan akhirnya selepas satu jam baru boleh makan hahaha.

Makanya surrounding especially kat rumah memainkan peranan yang sangat pentinglah bagi aku. Sebab kat rumah tempat kau nak berehat kan, kalau suasana cold je, memang rasa nak marah orang je manjang. Sebab tu korang kena ada housemates yang bersifat 3 perkara tadi; understanding, give & take. Buat hadek hadek, bahkan orang dewasa sekali pun, ciptalah suasana rumah yang membantu korang semua. I am family-oriented person. Warmness at home does matter. Kadang-kadang aku pun terkejut sebab pernah tengok post kat facebook, housemate dia garang macam singa. Berkepok kepok nota sana sini kat fridge, pintu toilet bagai dengan pesanan pesanan yang macam macam. We had the reminders too as well, but with sweet words and nice note. Spread the love, not the hatred. 

Nahh, salam sayang dari kami, The shipsters.

Relief.

Adalah orang pernah cakap, "I never see my future has anything related to you"

"Hello, me neither." -_-

Geram pulak aku. Hahaha. Okaylah takpe. Cut that crap out. I mean, okaylah fine taknampak ke, kabur kabur ke apa ke, yang jawab macam robot tu dah kenapa. Sebenarnya, betul ni dah tak harap apa apa dah pun. Sebab dan musabab saya bagi tahu tu pun, it was just the reason for me to sort myself out. Apa yang saya fikir, rasa saya macam mana, dah ready ke belum. Rupanya lepas bagitahu, barulah rasa hati ni lega dan tenang sikit. Which is good kan. Kalau Wan Syafiqa boleh makan dengan baik, ndak perlu risau apa apa ya. Hatinya bukan lagi ibarat gelas yang pecah berkecai mahupun objek yang ditoreh-toreh. Boleh lah stop perasan selepas ini :3

Minggu depan dah nak start research.
Semoga hati se-sado biasa.
Bye! :)

Fullstop.

He might having someone on him right now, I've heard.

And there's a girl who keeps on thinking about him, after a year passed until now.

Girl, you are stupid enough. 
Please stop this nonsense now. 
You just look hopeless and pathetic. 
Move on. 

It wasn't the right time to think about this. You approached me at the wrong time. Yes, the wrong time. 

But not, until now.

#5Adelaidefacts

It's nearly 3 months I have been in Malaysia after coming back from Adelaide. Well adaptation and put on some weight too, though I am still actually dalam proses menqada' semua makanan malaysia lagi. hewhew. Coz my dad teach me to eat unhealthily. Meal after 7 and breakfast at 9pm! Kan tak sihat tu? -.-' My daily routine in Adelaide dah berubah 360degree coz need to serve my abah. haha. But after all, I'm still happy serving someone that means a lot to me :)

Anyway, hi! I'm Wan Syafiqa. Nice to meet you. I'm now your super senior because I left Adelaide uni a couple of months ago. hehe. A fresh graduates of bachelor of sc. biomedical sc majoring in infection and immunity and physiology. If I have one wish right now, I would ask the fairy to take me and flew me to the place I miss the most which is South Aussie. First of all, I would like to congratulate students yang dah terpilih dan fly bagai sampai sana dah. Alhamdulillah, a good choice and it's a place you won't regret. Trust me ;) Hah, special wish siapp. People who know me mesti akan tahu, how proud I am to say that I studied in that uni, despite of any other uni kt aussie and around the world. It's a fact. haha. Kalau ada yang terpikir2 nk migrtae or nk study kat adelaide @ in Aussie, just directly pm me ok? I would bring you to the right path and link you with the right person over there!

Now I'll bring you the ideas why it is my fave place!

#fact1
It is nominated as the best place to live in the world. Rank no 1.
Hah! hebat kan? Along with that, it is also ranked as the second cleanest city after canada. that's why its the best place to live kot. hehe. Sbb kalau bercakap pasal clean, yes its indeed very clean! fresh air lepastu very calm and relaxing. No crowded and tall buildings. paling tinggi pun bangunan westpac yang hm taklah tinggi mana pun sbnrnya, Ahahaha. It's a 20mins city yang korang boleh walk around coz its a walking distance. Tapi student msia adelaide tak se-sado student sydney lah coz student kat sydney tend to walk a lot compared to us due to geographical difference i guess.

#fact2
Efficient public transport.
Okay. Mostly transport yang kteorang pakai is metro bus and tram. Uni is reachable by bus. Normally we sponsored student who need to manage money very well akan live in the closest suburb range go zone utk bus. so bus mmg frequent every 15mins after 9am-7pm. before and after that, bus akan ada 30mins sekali. $0.87 utk concession during peak hours and non peak approx $1.25 kot. tapi its considered as very cheap compared to other state. within 2 hours, korang akan dapat naik bus scr free. so kalau korang ada satu kelas je, 1jam je haritu, boleh lah balik cecepat kejar bus within 2 hours tu utk dapat free fare. For tram, its free around city but you need to pay the same fees mcm bus fare if you travel outside city. Not to mention we also have o-bahn!O-bahn ni dia ada 2 purpose, dia akan jadi bus bila kat jalan and jadi tram bila sampai railway dia sendiri. dah macam tranformer pulak. hahaha. but anyways, its used to travel to eastern suburb coz eastern suburb ni a bit far from city kalau drive. kalau naik obahn ni it will shorten the time la. 20mins interval can be shorten into 10mins dah sampai.

#fact3
North Terrace Adelaide uni is in city center
Adelaide uni ada 3 campus; North terrace, roseworthy, waite
based on course korang, korang akan dicampakkan ke campus campus tersebut. roseworthy (suburb, havent been there yet lol) specialised for those yang nk pursue animal sc. waite is also in suburb utk agriculture students while north terrace is for sc, engineering and arts students. Kalau korang dapat NT campus best sbb betul2 tgh tgh city. kalau nk beli barang semua senang sbb rundle mall is just cross the uni. opposite aje :D dan mmg boleh lepak lepak around rundle mall dgr org basking sambil minum gong cha & chatime, makan crepe atau minum coffe kat gloria jeans? Aaaah ku rindu semua itu! T.T oh btw, adelaide has another 2 uni, flinders and south aussie uni.

#fact4
Closer to beautiful beach!
Actually most state kt oz semua ada pantai yang cantik sendiri. hehe. If you wish to go to any beach yang dekat, can always go to Gleneg or henly beach. kalau nk pi gleneg you can always take the tram and stop at its last stop and enjoy copenhagen ice cream as well as some fish and chips! nandos is halal too and there's a chocolate cafe kt sana yang muslims friendly. you can always check on that! in henly beach, boleh amik bus direct and stop kat last stop juga. boleh try kebab kat situ sbb halal, and eat ice cream too but the choice are not as much as copenhagen kt gleneg. This beach is close to my house. Ingat lagi kalau ttbe stress and rasa mcm nk tengok alam, tak turun pun kat bus stop 8, direct terus dok dalam bus p bus stop 30. lepastu tunggu sunset sambil makan ice cream & balik lepastu. aaaa what a life!

#fact5
Cheap & big house
Okay as to compare to other state, adelaide has the cheapest rent fees and has spacious accommodation. At my previous house dulu, rent $350, 5 bilik siap ada garden lagi. Fruits garden ok! Every seasons mesti ada je pokok yang berbuah. Summer ah paling best. dah boleh bukak kedau buah koott. During summer, we have plums, almond, figs,apricot (usually early summer) white and red grapes, and green apples too. Autumn ada persimmon. Winter we have mandarins and oranges. Spring we have japanese plums (fave fruits). Rent rumah boleh dapat $220-$380 per week. Tapi kalau kongsi 5 orang, bayar harga camtu lah sebulan. That, we consider as cheap 7 affordable for students. Kalau korang nk duduk kt uni accommodation pun boleh, tapi sorang would be $190 camtu per week. kalau darab dengan 4 mmg duit sponsor dapat ke rumah ajelah. tak tahu nk makan apa dah. haha.

So that's it from now. Soon I'll update some interesting activities to do & places to visit soon!
Toodles,
From me the Adelaide lover :)
