The following are pictures the place where I stayed at Miles Street during my placement in Port Augusta. This house is meant to be a birthing place whereby mothers stay there temporarily while waiting for their babies to be deliveried. I am just assuming that mothers are able to stay there temporarily as it is just in front of the Port Augusta Hospital which is simply just a 2 minutes walk behind the house. Hence, anytime if there might be emergency, the mothers might be able to get some help.

The Dryer in the laundry area:
(There's Lucy red precious baby too)
Now I am staying in a backpackers.
The place is called
Adelaide's Blue Galah Backpackers Hostel & Travel
Venue: Level 1, 62 King William Street, Adelaide, 5000, South Australia
My room:
Single Room (No sharing)
Cost: AU$70.00
Things I like about the place:
Free breakfast.
Common TV provided.
Convenient.
Wireless internet access (as I can stay in my room and use the internet)
Although it would be cheaper to share room with others,
I chose to stay in the single room.
The reasons are:
(1) Uncomfortable sharing rooms with strangers
(2) I do not trust strangers staying with me in the same room when I am out of my room.
One will never know what will happen when one is not in their room.
As many of you would have guessed,
I managed get internet access too.
I used this card called Global Gossip.
Initially, I paid AU$20.00 for the internet access,
which only allow me to use the internet for 1-2 hours.
However, when I went to the website,
I realized that it is cheap to get the full day access to the internet.
It only cost an additionally AU$30.
Therefore, I went to the counter and asked to top up the account.
I am also able to blog things up at the same time too.
It is really fantastic.
The card
Anyway, I will be staying here till sunday before I head to Port Augusta.
I will catch up with all of you again.
It was the day where I have to leave all my friends, boyfriend and family in Singapore for a long period of 8 months.
*Sighs*
Nevermind. I should try not to be sad for now as time will pass very quickly when one gets busy.

Sorry for not blogging for almost 2 years. It is really a long story why I haven’t been blogging.
Anyway, I will just brief tell you all the reasons why I was unable to blog:
(1) My laptop crashed. All data in my laptop were lost, including my blog website too.
(2) I am a noobster in blogging. Since I wasn't good in it, I wasn't able to retrieve my blog website.
(3) My busy schedule in school.
I shall tell you all of how I manage to get my blog website back.
One day, as I was chatting in IRC (also known as Internet Relay Chat), someone (by the nick of Husky) asked me if this blog belong to me. He was able to get my address as he used my msn address to find it via goggle website to search for my blog. Since he had never met up with me before, he double checked with me to confirm if this blog belong to me.
I clicked on the link which he gave me and realized that it was my long lost blog website. I got really excited and told him that it belong to me. Anyway, I should really thank him for finding this blog for me. If not, I would not be able to update stuff about me.
Anyway, I know it is really silly of me to be really excited over such small matter. However, I am really excited to blog stuff about myself once again. I hope that all the things that I blog would be entertaining to all of you. Hope you all enjoy reading my blog. Anyway, do stay tune for more updates.
Have a nice day ahead too. =)
