USA to Malaysia delivery

Hey

I'm planning on buying myself a macbook pro and a Pentax K-x.
Only reason am not buying it locally because I found a great deal for the K-x and macbook pro (no not together) that would save me a few thousands RMs.

Heres my situation, A friend of mine is in the US, and I need to have these items shipped over to me in Cyberjaya.

What's my best option here?
vpost? DHL? anything else?

Thanks (:

Skipping LUCT design foundation year,good or bad?

Fanatic — Sun, 11 Oct 2009 06:22:03 +0800

So..LUCT offered me to skip the design foundation year and hop right into the Professional Design 3 year course, after viewing my little portfolio. Am not sure if my capabilities really deserve that though, specially if the course depends on drawing, but then again perhaps the foundation year is not really that useful?

So my main question is skip or no skip?

Mind you am an international, and am not good with drawing, just some sketching and I do all my work on the computer.

And the portfolio included

1-Few Illustrations
(mostly done in Adobe Illustrator, half sketching and then porting to computer and tracing over sketch)

2-Some pictures made totally in Photoshop(some were colored sketches)

3-and random photography

am planning to get rid of tracing sketches once I get my graphic tablet

I've been wandering around the forum reading about courses and universities/colleges for a multimedia degree or visual communication...
I read that each college has its strong and weak points...

so I need to know which college is best for multimedia design/visual communication degree along with the fees if possible and location? mind you am not well equipped with cash
