day3&4-malaysia

While in Day-2 we walk around to Alamanda, we did not really spent much time outside the hostel. We spent day 3 just by staying inside, trying veggie Indian food for lunch and having tom yam soup that is not really good with our new Bangladesh friend, Nausi. Nausi is moslem and she speak really polite just like Javanese in Indonesia. She talk a lot about Bangladesh, how they really look like Indian (she said they used to be together but then India, Pakistan and Bangladesh separated), different taste of food (In India she has more spice for the food than in Bangladesh. Also how actually her campus does not really taking a good care of International students. When the internship times begun, she and her friends have a difficulties to find a place for internships, so she decided to just go overseas to get a new experience. She is staying in Australia and she said Australian really open for new comers and international person. I guess that’s a sign of a developed various country.
And today we should complete everything up. We come to the international commission office, and we have to complete some registration form and it takes lot of time. We are helped by ms Fatimah, she comes from Thailand and she is really nice, she also really stylist just remind me with my English 2 teacher who love to change her clothes style. We should finish everything including the finance and student visa and student card, etc. In the finance department, I do not know why, but they put unspoken English person to serve the international student, its funny. And she was mad at us because we want to get the sign but we have not paid yet (while we shouldn’t since we are and exchange students), she kept saying “kamu sudah paid belum?!!”, wew, we got really scared. They should have also put the staffs who understand English.
We then went to have some lunch with our Germany-Exchange-students, Nina and Anna, they ate chicken Hainan and rice, and they love those types of food chicken and rice. And we met some Indonesian Students that actually one of them is the leader of Indonesian Community Students, and the other one is the leader of International Club community. Indonesian are really popular here, but only some of them staying at the hostel, they choose to live and stay in Siberia, I really wanna be rich and studying abroad with good facilities like them. HHHAAAHHAA.
And last procedure is making the bank account. But we got no problem in it. What makes the atm card different with Indonesian is they do not write our name in the card and when the first time you activated there is no menu but go directly to changing your pin number, that’s good. And after that we went to pray. I love Malaysian Surau, or praying room, they always separated the Muslim and Muslimah surau including the bilik wuduk, therefore we should not worried. And they always have a big surau with a really good design, I have no idea why in Indonesia with most Moslem community do not have big surau everywhere. Like this picture,
is inside the Alamanda surau. They can make the design very beautiful from the bath room floor. Isn’t that great?
Oh ya, in MMU, there are so many big and cool and clean building but we have so little number of student studying here, I do not know if it only happened in first day of school because I did not see people chatting around and have a talk with their friends, so different with Indonesian university.
