Jan2025 dump

Historically, long hiatus on my site means I'm down and dprsd BUT NOT IN JAN. It's been so FULL - of Fun, Unity, Love, Logic.

Quick apologies that I haven't been able to figure out how to rotate my photos so we'll just have to bear with me until I do :P

Pre-pre-pre departure

Before getting to Canberra, you'll have to get a Certificate of Enrollment Health insurance Student visa The first will be sent to you once you've been given a place in the university of your choice. It acts as an official document of acceptance and is needed to apply for the next 2 documents. I got it through my course coordinator (Melissa) in NUS and it's really fuss free.
