duh... i am now in MMU CITS computer lab downloading some stuffs. the internet services in where i am staying really suck. guess i should have come to this lab much earlier. anyway, i am going to move out of EP for next trimester. hohoho... bidding sayonara to dear dear EP.
let me tell you something about EP, and of course there are always two sides of every story.
the bright side of EP:
- very very near to MMU, say 1 minute walking distance? well, it is just opposite MMU main gate but is far from Law School.
- have all your basic needs in one place, because eating outlets, groceries shop, computer center, hair saloon, and eye wears shop are just at the ground floor.
- RM195 per month for twin sharing including internet fees, water and electricity bills. will be penalize if your bills exceed certain amounts.
- free cleaning services.
- there is a laundry services inside the building, RM2.00 per kilo is considerable cheap and you can usually get your clothes back on the next day. i like the laundry ladies the most.
- the handyman is very nice, will help repair any damaged lamp or plumbing system.
now, come the ugly side of it, hahaha... :
- troublesome security procedures every time you enter or leave EP compound.
- very hard to bring friends in when you need to do some assignment discussions, have to register first and use the back gate only! damn that overreacting stupid guard. you have to freaking circle the whole building if you are coming out from campus. very silly.
- damn, i hate the guards the most!
- RM195 rate (twin sharing) is applied to every kind of rooms, no discount even if your room is at block B which is very very smaller compared to the one at block C. they save the best for guys only. definitely is a gender discrimination, damn!!! the same goes for anyone staying in the OVEN room, no big windows like other rooms except small one that face the kitchen. it is freaking hot, man!!! they should have come out with different rates for different kind of rooms, but why should they care when they freaking know that people are still going to rent it out :P
- rents are to be collected in every 3 months, meaning you have to pay RM585 in a go. ouch!!! it hurts.
- no, you cannot cook inside the house.
- the internet is free, but it is very slow............... what a shame.
number 1, 2, 3, 4 and 7 in dislike is my main strong reasons to move out of that building. for the advantages, i only like number 1, 4 and 5.
well, i guess i am just tired of staying in EP. time to move out, baby.
one more thing, it really is much cheaper to stay outside. renting a room or house can save you more money. plus, you can get the whole room for yourself. of course it depends on what you are looking for and how you manage your priorities.
as for me, i am looking forward to stay outside with housemates that i can choose on my own. lol...
