Well my trip from Kay Kay to Mel took around 1.5 days. My flying route is shown below:
KK(Start)-->Kuching(Transit ETA: 1 hour)-->Singapore(Transit ETA: 5 hours)-->Darwin(ETA: 2 hours)-->Melbourne(End)
I took MAS from KK to Sing. It was good. The service was awesome. The only thing I found disappointing is the Techno kadazan songs.. mixed with the most annoying musical instrument made by dear old mankind.. the B-A-N-J-O.
Sounded like Yogi Bear was playing it.

I reached Sings T2 and transferred to the Budget Terminal. I was really hungry by then. The muffins and cakes looked really good but I decided to chow this down due to 'OUTSIDE INFLUENCES'...

Yeah, a snapple and some salad.
The renovated BT looked better, smelt better too. LOL.

I left Sing around 6.35 to Melbourne on TigerAirways*. The only thing I could recall from that flight was:
1. I was starving
2. A 4 year old screaming 'Make it stop! Make it stop!!!!!' during touchdown in Darwin AND Mel (double noise pollution)[same kid].
3. The only place I found safe from the ever rough China stewards and stewardess.

*Note pls reconsider taking Tiger Airways, to me it's worse than AirAsia plus rough-chinklish-stewards and stewardess. When they 'accidentally' bump you(more like 5 times++) they don't give a dam. They just LOVE to shove u aside.
When I landed at Darwin I was crippled... Actually everyone who took TA was crippled.

Make it stop! Make it stop! - TA passenger
The first thing I did at Darwin was chowing down a quiche and a Mediterranean delight. Yum... that made my tummy smile.


Well, the place I'm staying is pretty good. The room is fully furnished(oh yeah) and equipped with a king sized bed! I'm just 15 minutes away from Monash U and approx 30 from Mel central.

Big boy bed!

My 'play' area.
Well orientation starts tomorrow! I hope to meet a lot of newbies.. :) Just hope dear Yi won't trash my first day.
Will keep u guys updated!

Excuse me, Melbourne is not only the most livable city in Australia, but in the world, according to some authority on cities.It doesn't have the crime or frantic pace of big cities. It has arts, good food and a diverse culture. Welcome to the best place on earth!
