wtheck, 3 posts in 24 hours.
ANYWAYS, this is a notice:
"The University of Queensland has been advised that a student and a staff member have tested positive to H1N1 Influenza A (swine flu).
The student, a resident at St Leos College, presented with symptoms at the University Health Services on Thursday. On Sunday, the University was notified that tests were confirmed positive. The student is in quarantine at his home in a regional centre.St Leos College is not closed or quarantined; this follows consultation with Queensland Health.
The University is continuing with all normal functions including all examinations. Activities have not been cancelled. Face masks and hand gel, as a preventative measure, are available at exams to students who request them.
The University is in daily contact with Queensland Health to co-ordinate the management of individual cases of H1N1 Influenza A as they occur. The student and the staff member are undertaking the recommended course of treatment."
---------------------------------------------------------
That's what we got through the student emails today.
Some students are asking why the Uni only informed us today evening when it has been confirmed on Sunday. Most of the others are just wondering why exams are not postponed cause they think the school should be quarantined. Some say that the least they should do is to quarantine the area where it happened and the people there. 0.o"...
Apparently not getting SARS in Aust that time is making them a little complacent. Hmmm...
& Kin Fatt says: "Good, can get more masks from them then can use on the flight back..."

Sorry for the lack of updates!!! Been kinda busy since I got back to Brissy! Arrived on Friday night, met up with Tazis on Sat, Sun and Mon nights while going over to Gatton during the day to buy furniture, clean the house and whatnot. Man...it sure is expensive to get everything. =.="
Thanks to Joe, Hao and PC for the company these few days ya!? Had loads of fun...^^ Oh, and for helping me out with the enrolment stuff.
ANYWAYS. Notice to Tazis:
-------There will be a lack in connection on my mobile for this week as I am still on pre-paid and the coverage kinda sucks for over there in Gatton. I will be getting my home phone line connected tomorrow, which is Tuesday, and I will be calling one of the Tazis (Yang Hao probably) so that you guys have a number you can call if you need to contact me. (Call between anytime after 4pm...). If it's really urgent, I have left my mum's mobile number with Hao, then you guys can leave a sms there so that I will be able to get back ASAP. Or you can sms my mobile but I might not receive it. My internet connection will probably on be up on 27th Feb or later. ---------
Will be back in Brisbane city on Friday morning or noon, which is when I will be signing up a 3-Mobile plan and maybe headover to Chinatown and get some foodstock. Will be returning to Gatton like Saturday evening. Staying over Kit and Hao's place...I think.
About the house, it's quite good actually. The size is just right (maybe a little big, but any smaller and I will get no dining space. 0.o"), the bedrooms and bathrooms are decent and the kitchen is really roomy. Haven't tried walking to or from the bus stop, but I think it will be alright.
It will take me maybe like 20 minutes or so to walk to the town area or Gatton Plaza to do some shopping so I might get a bicycle. It's also a rather quiet area with LOADS of greenery so my mum reckons I won't fall sick that easily due to all the fresh air. XD. Saw loads of cows and horses there...And a golf course is like 5 mins away from my place and the sports center 10 mins (walking dist.).
CLASSES START on 25th!!! EEKS!! My timetable is kinda decent, except for Wednesday and Friday whereby classes start at 8am, and the bus only runs at 6.30am or 8.10am from my place so I will reach school at like 6.45am or 8.30am...So I am either gonna be late by 1/2 hour or early by 1 hour. Riiight...=.=" Starts at 9am for Monday and Tuesday and 1pm on Thursday. Ends rather early except for Wednesday (6pm).
I don't reckon the timetable is confirmed yet cause my contact hours don't match the amount I am supposed to have. So I guess I have some things to ask during Orientation...
Will be uploading photos ASAP!!! Bye for now!
