Mini chat with friends

Having a chat with Vvy from Japanese class where she currently in Perth taking her work and holiday visa enjoying relaxing life over there. She advice to study there then only take PR. Her friend who had applied before Vvy apply the Working holiday visa till now still not approve yet. Too many immigrants. She got relatives at Adelaine but without studying at Australia is tougher I guess. I asked her about the employment working limit for Working Holiday visa, she said is up to 6 months for each employer. Her opinion is even you got contract office job they also won't hire you because of the visa, but it's an of life experience. Just once in your life but you can extend another year more. The age limit is 18 until 30. She started to missed her professional job as accountant and friends and family. I told her to make friends in Perth she told me she don't really social at there. ><

I told her to sleep in caravan and that's what she doing this weekend for camping!

Meantime chatting with Pei Sem who is my kindergarten + SGM mate related her mother with my mother. She had shifted to Bandar Kinrara, Puchong. She did actuarial studies which mean in short explanation . I asked her opinion what's the different between Malaysia and Australia lecture style. She said maybe aussie style is more like relaxing and sharing your knowledge but Malaysian is like reading from lecturer notes. She took pre-u South Australian Marticulation at Taylor's college so she don't have to take IELTS as there already an English course. She had done her studies in Canberra ANU Australian National Uni since December 2008 and back to KL working for general insurance consulting firm. Count and predict for future for general insurance firms and there are requirements from bank negara to prepare statutory reports so her job are there to assist the clients. I joke with her for telling me how 2010 economy will goes? She said not in position yet but more on statistics stuff. The she was asking my sister is there in Australia. And I told her I visited sister and brother just last month with my mom! XD Asked her whether she missed the life there? All her friends are still staying in Australia. But in order to get good job in Australia need some determination to stay as well as a PR. And not that you will get the job on the course you have studied. She short of 10 points but if study master, then will get enough points and think about it, if she's back here, she can get the job she want, and she sponsored by my company to do professional papers.

"Relative doesn't count cousin according to the new regulation" what I learned from her today. Even investments are not counted during her time, stricter. I told her about Vvy case. However even if you are student, you can still work for 20 hours max per week if not mistaken. She did some tutoring, tutor finance for first year students.

The requirement is 120 points and her degree is not in demand so only 50 points, 10 points lower compared to accountants.

Joanne Leong who migrate to Melbourne, Australia since Form 3 if I not mistaken. She's now back in Melacca having holiday here. She had met with Yuk Pui and Wuei Yunn there. She remember Lee Mun but opposition Lee Mun couldn't remember her. Told her that Lee Mun had completed her studies in Monash and applying for PR. Then my line unstable and unable to continue the chat. By the way, I missed the chance of meeting her in Melbourne but maybe July later I can meet her by contacting her Facebook not MSN! XD I had waited her to online in MSN for ages!

Last but not least, I had researched the Legend electricity shop today near the Old Klang Road AM bank beside Tan Boon Ming shop. They selling 990MYR for cheapest normal Panasonic brand air-conditional with included installation which I think is reasonable price. I heard mom talking on phone calling someone for asking the price of air-conditional in China brand cost around RM1200-1300 which is terrible not worthy! If I do not guess wrongly, that is what Kepong Aunty recommend it because her house just installed it. Stupid China brand makes everyone untrusted it due to its poor quality production. After that we went to Carrefour at Sri Petaling to compare the price against the one I went to just now. The cheapest normal Panasonic Brand they selling at 989MYR which is RM1 cheaper and not included with the installation. They charged the installation fees for RM170 for normal and RM330 for the inverter. Till than my decision yet discussion with mom. I hope she will satisfy the money she spent for with this shop.

I saw Wii-Bag selling at Carrefour which cost RM50. And the catalogue written purchase minimum RM118 to receive Free RM8 Carrefour gift voucher. I so desire to get one of this bag because you don't have to take out everything from the bag because they are some hole at a place for you to plug-in the cables to the tv and console and etc. Stupid Carrefour should launch this early without wasting my money to get one! Trying to persuade mom to go Carrefour together as there are still another RM68 to go to get the RM8 voucher in total of RM118 spend.

Went home and ask mom about the price she asked during evening. She told it is China Brand, the most cheapest will be RM1100-1200. I showed her the price I taken from the Legend and it is only cost RM990 for normal Panasonic Brand with installation included. She then huh, to ask me take her spectacle to let her see it. I forgotten to ask whether they have charged for interest if swipe with credit card, I said. She bother about the free gifts instead. >.<

Good night world! I miss my kindergarten friend. =)
