I am starting to really like Graz.
I had quite a bit of personal time this week and I was roaming the streets and I chanced upon many beautiful cozy cafes and quirky shops.
Wrote them all down in my notebook and will check them out one by one soon (:

Hello (:

First blog post since exchange started hehehe.

Today was such a lovely day.

It was a simple day.
Woke up in the morning and went to the housing office to get my contract signed.
My room mate had lesson in school so I went myself but it was perfectly fine because I treasure my personal time as well.
Then made my way to the bank to get my rent paid.
Walked along the streets near my house and I discovered an awesome music store just opposite selling first and second hand cds and vinyls and I saw Muse's The 2nd Law and The XX's Coexist vinyls on display!
Roamed a little more and chanced upon a beautiful narrow little cafe and went in.
Turns out it's vegetarian and I got myself some warm delicious soup and bread.
The owner and other customers were really friendly as well and I left the cafe with a big smile on my face hehe.
Went to run some little errands and bought myself some shampoo and conditioner.
It was a mother difficult process and I had to use google translate to figure out what all the different terms meant HAHA.

Now I am back in my dorm and going to cook some food with my room mate.
She told me last night that she intends to go back to Singapore early in December because she can't bring her boyfriend over like she originally planned. 
So I will probably be going back to Singapore myself and will have alot of time to myself towards the end of the year.

I have no idea what I am going to do yet.
Maybe I will go travelling with my SMU friends, with exchange friends or maybe myself.
I don't know what the rest of my time on exchange has in store for me but I will take it one step at a time and have faith that things will unfold in its own beautiful way (:

Oh yes and Florence and the Machine and The XX will be performing in Europe and ideally I can catch them both in the UK with my dear friend Fiona who will be coming over to Europe in December. Also, Noah and the Whale, Lucy Rose, Daughter and Villagers will be performing together in a gig on November 26 in the UK. WHAT A PERFECT GIG. I reallyyyyyyyyyyy want to go, I have no idea who am I going to go with yet but I will see how it goes. (: (: (:
