18DL: JPJ & Ozland

Today I had to take half the day off(again)... I feel bad. Ah Chung would probably re-consider writing an awesome testimonial... DAMMIT! Well, I had a good reason though. I took my QTI ( trial driving test) this afternoon and it went smoothly. =) Men are just born drivers hahaha.

I would be taking my real JPJ test next Tuesday. Hopefully I could get my license by Thursday! I was just looking at properties in Clayton and I came across Ozland House. It's a lot better than Rusden but I need like 3 more housemates. =( Hopefully I can move out of Rusden and settle in Ozland next March when the others come over.

There's many types of townhouses ads by Ozland from the Atlantic series to 32 Bettina. All fully funished and student friendly. All close to Monash U, public transportation and shops... Lots of it.

This is what is provided by the Atlantic series which my eyes are stuck on.



6 Atlantic Street, Clayton VIC 3168

This site has three town houses. Each town house has four(FOUR!!!) bedrooms, two bath rooms and two toilets. The town houses are brand new. Each town house also has a comfortable common area that is provided with a TV.

The lockable bedrooms are spacious and well lit.

In addition to all these, the facility has the following :

  • Lockable fully furnished bed rooms: bed, desk, lamps and wardrobe
  • Central heating and cooling
  • Internet connections in each bed room
  • Provision of telephone line in each bedroom
  • Fully furnished kitchen – gas stove, oven, microwave oven, refrigerators, rice cooker, pots and pans, appropriate cooking utensils, plates, cups and glasses and storage places for each student
  • Meals area including dining table and chairs
  • Common room equipped with TV and DVD player
  • laundry equipment enabling students to wash, dry and iron their clothes.
  • Ample storage areas for suitcases and unused materials
  • Security alarm systems & smoke detectors
  • Smart lighting controls

It is within walking distance to Monash University – Clayton campus. And it is also some 15 minutes away from Clayton Train Station and Clayton shopping area.

Oh boy, looking at it and thinking of my mates coming over is just paranormal! I'm pumped with adraneline! ROAR!

This townhouse is pretty darn good. Location wise... close to Monash.




I'll just have to wait till next year and talk to my dad about this stuff. Hopefully we can have a K.K. community in this little house.

And the rate for all these goodies? Cheap! A$ 160 p.w. (per week) for each room! Roughly A$650 to rent the whole unit with 4 friends! But an additional one or two extra mates can join us. So that's like 6 in DA HOUSE! It's also cheaper than Rusden's by what... A$30-50 man! Alright.. I've gotta cooldown. *relax ming... relax* Well I will keep you guys updated with my progress before leaving Melb.

ATTENTION!!!ATTENTION!!!ATTENTION
BOWLING!BOWLING!BOWLING!BOWLING

To all ex-IS, bowling game this Saturday at CPS Bowling Arena (8th Floor) at 2 p.m. I think it's RM 3-4 per person. (And bring some extra cash for shoe rental and yam cha etc..)

You don't get your license the day you pass your JPJ test you know. You gotta wait a few weeks. A lot of people also going bowling...

i was searching the internet and came across your blog about the ozland accommodation, i was wondering if you have lived there before and how do you find it? because i'll be going over to monash clayton in a few weeks time and currently looking around for accommodation

Hey weijuin!

It's a pretty good place! It's really close to uni and if you usually cook at home, it'll definitely be one of my top recommendations. I'm not sure about the rentals as I've heard it went up a bit.

If you prefer to have food else where apart from cooking them yourself, the best option would be staying at the Uni halls. :)

Cheers!
