Il pleut. On a géré, seulement 3 jours après on a réussi a signé un bail(euh, deux) pour une colloc de 8 personnes! Un mixte d'étudiants et de gens déjà en train de travailler... mais ils sont tous néo-zélandais... cool... euh maybe! On confirmera ça plus tard. Demain on va quitter cette petite auberge sympa mais qui chauffe à mort dans la salle commune car les deux propriétaires(un vieux couple) tournent le chauffage à fond même quand il fait soleil!
Le Eagle's Nest Backpackers
L'accueil a été.. euh ok... on s'est retrouvé avec Mr. DeLiang Zhang(notre maitre de projet) pour la première fois dans le "tea room" du Engineering Dept. C'était assez "casual" car ce n'est pas avec lui que nous serrâmes la main en premier mais avec les autres professeurs associés et étudiants, alors qu'il était en train de discuter avec un autre prof devant nous! Bréf intro avec Stella, notre superviseur principal. Dr. Peng (pas Wee Peng mais un autre prof. associé) et Stella nous ont récommandé des tonnes et des tonnes de livres sur les Matériaux. Hahaha, guess what, Nouchi's back pour nous! Piero commence à mater un livre là, et il est 23h, le baddd!!!!
Les boyz... er, piero améliore son kung-fu avec les baguettes...
p/s : on yeah, apparamment l'université ici ne nous fournit que l'accès intranet et on doit payer pour la connection internet. Bizarre comme système... il va falloir s'y adapter.
Hamilton... (more to come)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
After searching for a flat for 3 days (and visiting Hamilton), we finally found a home. It’s a house with 8 rooms, 2 living rooms, 2 bathrooms, 1 kitchen and 5 flat mates. It reminds me or the movie “L’auberge espagnole”; some of them are working while others are studying and everybody is open minded, welcomed us and so kind.
At the Uni, we met our tutor Mr. Deliang Zhang; the room is full of teachers who were drinking their tea/coffee, some of them naturally came to talk with us. Finally he spoke to us, brought us to the place where we will be doing the research and introduced us to Stella, the woman who will be looking after us because the professor is usually very busy. Then Stella introduces us to the project! We left the Uni with 2 heavy books (mechanical of the materials and properties of light alloys for the purist). Like Alan said "Nouchi’s back" pray for us §§§
The photos above show us in the shopping mall when we drank a coffee (Alan is turning me into a coffee addict) (photos 1 and 5). On the way back from our future flat’s visit, we walked pass a bridge when a boat race took place (photos 2 and 3). In the shopping centre; when I was eating a cup of noodles with my chopsticks (I’m better now, Alan finish his cup only 10mins before me).
