Since i live in Australia, it’s now 2:40 AM on Tuesday the 29th…School goes back tomorrow :( As you can probably tell, i’m not super excited about that fact. But then again, it’s not too bad, to be honest. I’m actually really looking forward to starting my new subjects, especially Ancient History and English Extension. When I do English Extension 2 in year 12, I’ll also get to make a video, novel, short stor[ies], or something else that i forget. That’s exciting, especially since I’d like to be a journalist/writer/photographer/traveler/jack-of-all-trades.

For this year (Year 11) I chose to do:

  • English Advanced (2 Units)
  • English Extension 1 (1 Unit)
  • Maths Advanced (2 Units)
  • Maths Extension 1 (1 Unit)
  • Ancient History (2 Units)
  • Physics (2 Units)
  • Visual Arts (2 Units)
  • Computers (2 Units)

That’s a lot of units though, so i intend to drop one of the extensions, and i also might change from Physics to something else.

AirAsiaX chief executive Asran Osman-Rani was in Australia over the long weekend for talks with Victorian airport officials and to check out Newcastle airport in New South Wales.The long-haul offshoot of successful low-cost carrier AirAsia plans to start flying to Victoria about October after the first of up to 25 new Airbus A330-300 aircraft is delivered.

The airline is currently flying to the Gold Coast using a leased aircraft and offers fares to Kuala Lumpur as low as $199 one-way.

Australia - Kuala Lumpur for $200 sounds mighty good to me. Hopefully with the increase of low-cost airlines, especially here in Australia, it will help get more people out of the house, off the beaten track, and onto an Adventure!
