A little update
Hey guys! My apologies for not updating for so long, you know me, never had a habit of blogging to begin with! If not for your requests, i probably wouldnt update! Haha.. oops. And i am so lazy to recount my trips so guess what i'll do, i'm going to copy and paste what i typed to some of you and put it down here for everyone to read! It was quite an adventure, travelling with friends! luckily the guys were damn good at navigating maps so the girls didnt have to do much. Highlights include Vatican City, Colosseum, statue of David, uncountable museums with paintings by da vinci etc, beautiful churhces and of course the leaning tower of pisa. Ate lotsa italian food and pastries (super nice!) = (groww fat.. but i dont really care lah! hahaha) . Venice's really pretty too.. dditn see a single car the entire time we were there, the whole city has like small canals flowing through it, so people travel by boats. I ate so much pasta and pizzas, haven't eaten any since i came back from Italy and did i mention their pastries are super nice, woah, it's the eat then faint kind of pastry. Super yummy. The most irritating part of the journey was the LAST day, we were supposed to catch the 11pm flight back to London but cos of fog, it was CANCELLED. So, we waited till like 10am the next morning to catch our flight. Slept at the airport.. like homeless ppl lah and it was so cold! ( the plight of poor budget travellers). I'll let the pictures do more of the talking okae!
And Wales was lets just say, not very entertaining! Haha, we covered the attractions in Cardiff in one day and decided to get out of Cardiff in the second day, travelled to some small town outside Cardiff, along the way, there were stretches of nice scenery but when we reached the town, we walked up and down, down and up and there was nothing to do! So there, just take it as a trip within UK lah.. haha. And i watched King Kong there! Cheaper than London, haha, and ppl, don't complain about paying $9.50 for a movie ticket on weekends okae, its still cheaper than Wales. King Kong was kinda gruesome at certain parts i thought, but quite a nice show lah. Waiting for Memoirs of a Geisha to be released! I aim to go to Rendezvous( supposedly very nice deserts, cakes and pastries) before school starts!
And it's Christmas today and All the shops are closed! No one's on the streeets at all. I went over to Rosebery last night to have a christmas dinner, nice food man! Thanks Watson and gang and i stayed over last night cos we had a count down (or we were supposed to, but we kinda missed it cos we were clearing up the dishes, so dumb! Haha!). And today is Christmas dayand it's not snowing, infact the weather's pretty good, sunny and not too cold and because everyone's home celebrating Christmas, there's nothing to do outside! So here i am, updating you guys on Christmas. Hope you guys are having a blast back home, enjoy the holidays while it lasts! As for me, i can't wait to go shopping where hopefully, there'll be good buys and i'm going to watch Twelfth Night ! Hope it's good! I wrote down so many things on my to-do list in dec but there's so little time left and i still have to study which is such a chore, at the rate i'm going, i wont be able to finish! Growl...
Oh yeah, i went bowling a few days ago which was quite fun and i went to Harrods to soak in the Christmas atmosphere with Winnie and got a free Krispy Creme! So happy ! And i spotted a box of opened chocolates and hurry koped one and it was damn good, that choc is super ex and i think they accidentally left it there, too bad for them cos chocolates can't escape my sharp eye. Wanted to go back to get one more but it disappeared already, sad! And we got a free gingerbread man biscuit at the kids floor, it was actually for the kids queuing up to see Santa Claus, but heck , just take! So, got lotsa free food from Harrods, haha! Harrods looked really pretty cos of all the lighting!
Ah, i can't wait to go Scotland... will be very soon and before u know it, school will re-open again! Chiong ! I will work harder next term i promise and i'm going to be more busy so more juggling skills needed. Today's the exact 3rd month i've been here, so much has happened but i'm still the same old me. I miss family, i miss you guys alot, 5+ months to home seems like an awfully long time and i could say this again and again, that no matter how tough the going gets, i'm grateful to be here.
A random thought, i think i'm going to remain a spinster! How scary.
