*cough cough cough*

urgh. i'm coughing again ): sucks ttm. and i haven't blog in forever. been busy with i don't know what also.

school has been busy as usual. been sleeping a little too much during lectures though. especially context. boring ttm. and then there's chem and bio. eeew. but ok though. can still catch a bit here and there. need to do my own self-study to catch up. sian. toy is still not working properly. works at time and in random. i'm just going to cross my fingers in front of the professor or sth. zzz. 5% of module which is 25% of total. so it is like erm 1%? but i think my toy is bright and cheerful. effort for making it look like a toy :D heh. ok that's it for school. really nothing interesting. just lectures after lectures.

ok so we had our 1st month in london celebration at Goldmine @ Bayswater with jiapei, lujie and ziyang. 4 of us damn gungho. we walked there. like a freaking 1 and a half hour walk. reached cold and hungry. made the food yummier i supposed. the food is damn nice :D so long since i had like real chinese food :D our budget was £15 per person and we ate till £13.20 per person. left £1.80 just nice tube back. hehheh. we didn't want to walk back cos we will be hungry again by the time we reached home. then we went back and had haagan daz bailey's ice cream with cocktail :D yummmmmmmy :D super satisfied sunday cos of great food with great company plus we washed our jackets and hoodies and bedsheets :D hahahahaha.

Roast Duck, Curry Fish Head, Hotplate Tofu, Wanton Soup, Egg Fried Rice, Sweet and Sour Pork
next significant thing was the trip to Borough Market and Tower Bridge on Saturday. wanted to go Borough market for such a long time already. heard so much about the cheap good food. not exactly cheap, but good. the cheeeeeeese daaaaaaaaaaamn nice. had a great time sampling :D hehheh. and yes, we walked there too. haha. went with jiapei, lujie, ziyang and jiapei's friends yunbing and joanne. borough market was so crowded. squeezed here and there. walked around, sampled, bought brownies and cookies and looked damn long for savoury food. finally found curry :D i had carribean curry, ziyang had thai green curry and joaane had malaysian curry :D yummy. after borough's market, since we were in the vicinity, we went to tower bridge to be tourists :D the wind was so strong. coooold. and we took photos, like duh! we wanted to take a group photo using jiapei's dslr, so we waited for somebody who had a dslr so that he/she will know how to use. and we had a nice picture. but i don't have it. must wait for jiapei.

after an hour's walk...

hahahahah mountain climbing
sunday had the first dhsya(uk) event. we went to cambridge. it felt sooooo good to be with dunmanians. like the frequency is there you know. then we talked about our teachers, the school food and rooms and all that. nostalgia :') cambridge was really pretty. the weather was so nice somemore. clear big sky :) but i think cambridge is only worth going if you actually know people from there, or else there really isn't much to see and do. the pretty things are all in the colleges and we can only go in with students. good thing wenxiu is cambridge pr :) hehheh. oh and we went punting. but i didn't punt. cos i didn't trust myself to stay balanced on the boat. and i didn't want to fall into the water during winter. maybe if i go in summer i will try. haha. OH and when i was looking at the sky, i commented that the rainbow was missing and everybody say i wish for too much. but later in the day, the rainbow really appeared! :D but i couldn't get a picture of it ): hopefully the pro cameras caught it. and i think i caught a cold in cambridge ):

rare lovely weather :)

Ostrich Burger! Yummy!
King's College, the prettiest of the 3 we saw and supposedly the prettiest in cambridge!

ended with dinner at nando's. very very hot officially killed my throat.
their moon always so low hanging.
yesterday was uclsingsoc FRIGHT FERRY! halloween party on a boat. my first halloween party and my first boat party. the scenery was so mesmerizing. it was so cold but i just wanted to stay out to look at the scenery. and we choped place to take pictures with tower bridge in the background. pictures with jiapei (again). so must wait (again). haha. anyway, there was a dance floor on the upper deck which i happily avoided. just went around taking pictures and catching up with people and talking and chatting and drinking. yay i got free drinks :D had a maliblu pineapple with the free drink upon entry, bought a bailey's, got a free bailey's with the ticket jeric gave me, and got 2 smirnoff ice with tickets from fuwei and chaorong. thankyou very much :D hehheh. it was really cool seeing people dress up. some really put in so much effort. i wanted to really dress up too, but my lecture ended at 6 and we had to arrive at 6.30. so erm yah. just did something simple. went as a london police. haha. pure laziness, but i didn't want to pon lecture. somemore the lecture is 4 hours lecture. and since we had to skip dinner, i made dinner for 6 and basically just sandwiches. and yogurt for desert. £1 per person. cheapcheap :D haha even cheaper than the bailey's i bought. lol. 

thongthong! ok but i anyhow say a name you also don't know. hahahaha.
Fuwei, looking good in the weird specs. haha.
