POST 4: Wanna to be active in sports ?

It would not be a surprise, if she joined any sports or activities while she is in Moscow because even before leaving for Moscow for the first time, she has been looking forward to join in any activities of her interest when she was in there .This was partly due to her track record in her previous school where she was very active during her school days. Beside participating in extra curiculum activities in her school,she was a black belt Tae kwan Do and has won few competitions and medals for her previous school.

She was also a member of school choral speaking team fwhich won as a runner up champion for Wilayah Persekutuan School annual championship.

POST 3: Becoming a future Chef or a Doctor ..?

By nature girls are good at......of course cooking... And this was what T was doing to fulfill her free time in the hostel. She was constantly communicating with her mum to show off her growing expertise in cooking.... Aha ... that's the positive things being away from parents and one need to be good in almost everything for survival...

POST 2: Extended Holiday?

Of course of all other important things to do once she was back in Moscow was to renew her student visa, uni registeration, and settling other necessary documentation related to the entry for the start of the new semester... However, things did not seem as simple as few new regulation were being imposed without prior notice. Things getting worse as she herself with other her previous year classmates were being treated like a ball by the authorities and what so called " an agency" who has been given an authority to handle all administrative matters for Malaysian student for the university in Moscow. I was very surprised how matters being handled for those students and I was beginring to realise the truth of what being said by Russian Embassy officers in Kuala Lumpur about this particular agency when I met them some few months back. How I wish I could be one of the students again and I will make sure this kind of incidents and treatment would not left unheard and taken actions.

So at the end... she and her friends are having an indefinite extended holiday , jolly time in Moscow... as for now it has been over one month since her arrival in Moscow...

So she spent her time doing few minor modification to her rooms by installing few minor furnitures ( book racks, etc) bought from Ikea. Cleaning the room was one of the tedious job to do as being expected she has to do her own own with no help from anyone. One must wonder how a girl could do the drillings and installing the book rack on the concrete wall.... That's you have to ak her yourselves..

Apart from spending time on facelifting works her room , she was left with nothing else for ladies was to do do a lot of cooking he he he. ( Will be shared in the next post).
