A walk down memory lane
It’s the 29th of February 2008, the third leap year in the new millennium. Cathay Pacific flight number CX 135 lands on the beautiful runway of Tullamarine Airport on a misty morning at 7:30 am. I take a good look outside the window; all I see is acres and acres of barren land. I thought to myself “no wonder Australia is called the flattest and the driest continent on the face of the planet”.

A walk down memory lane
A whole new world
It’s the 29th of February 2008, the third leap year in the new millennium. Cathay Pacific flight number CX 135 lands on the beautiful runway of Tullamarine Airport on a misty morning at 7:30 am. I take a good look outside the window; all I see is acres and acres of barren land. I thought to myself “no wonder Australia is called the flattest and the driest continent on the face of the planet”. When the wheels of the flight hit the ground I felt like butterflies in my stomach. This was a whole new phase and a new chapter in my life.Ten facts about Australia
Dry, large and empty:
Australia is the smallest, flattest, and driest continent in the world. It is the only country that makes up a whole continent. Over 90% of Australia is dry and almost three-quarters of the land cannot support agriculture in any form. The average world population density is 117 people per square mile, that of the United States 76 and that of Macao is 69,000. Australia's is only 6. Lowest point: Lake Eyre -15 m, highest point: Mount Kosciuszko 2,229 m.
Student Concerns
Jobs, home and language are the biggest concerns of International students, a survey of Swinburne Students shows.

Internship: Don't forget...
My name is Myrte (17) and I am a Dutch high school student graduating next year. I do bilingual education which means that I have had a lot of English. Every year we go on a trip in addition to our education and this year everybody had to arrange their own international work experience. So everybody had to find a host family and a company they could work for in a foreign country. When I started looking for an internship in November I wasn’t at all considering that I could get out of Europe, but then the opportunity came along to go to Australia and I was immediately exited.
Priority skills list uncertain
Overseas student applications plunged 40 per cent last month following the announced "abrupt and rapid" changes to Australia's visa regime.
The crackdown on student visas, coupled with uncertainty caused by the continuing delay to the priority skills list, could cost Australia at least $600 million in lost export revenue. Last month, there was a significant decline in applications from India, Vietnam and China.Tips for great Job Interview
