Sa melb muna ako @chyrstheen for now pero I'm thinking na mag Sydney. Energy kasi yung field ko so kahit medyo limited ang options ok lang sa VIC, pero kung talagang mga chem engg related parang mas madaming opportunity sa Sydney/NSW. Karamihan sa mga kabatch at mga schoolmates ko nasa NSW.
20k yung RT ticket nga pala for reference
