Back from hiatus

haiyaa...pics came out all wrong again....btm of the page up again k?

words alone cannot describe what an absolute blast i had in london this time round for the cny hols (well technically more like the inter-sem break).....so i need pics guys! u know who u are lol

To avoid confusion, start with the pics upwards then from the stars downwards.

************************************************************************************

Would love to blog bout my oxford trip cuz that was the BOMB! from the delectably orgasmic oxford brookes hot chocolate with marshmellows, whipped cream and flake bar to the fantastic picturesque city gardens and views to the harry potter school induction and great hall film locations (didnt manage to find the library in time) to the creme de la creme.....'Jamies Italian'!! omgosh the truffle tagliatelle (was it?) was soooooooo goooood....mmmm. the restaurant was supposedly jamie oliver's first restaurant and the prices were darn reasonable lo amy has all the pics as my cam ran out of bat due to the earlier camwhoring sessions haha

im so totally going back to jamies....

so...went back to london that night from oxford and like the nxt day was spent watching les miserables with mel and yi chieh which was great! was expecting too much from it so i didnt get the full blown away effect as mebbe mel did since this was the longest running musical in the world. then we had some cinnabons which were ridiculously overpriced but are relatively bloody cheap in kl and camwhored at pic circus at night since the londonders nvr really take pics of london unless a tourist like me comes down lol

so as night fell, was suppose to go clubbing with mel, shih yang and kok ming at some posh club in mayfair but suddenly got some celeb go in at the same time as us then they close the whole club for that person and his/her peeps....celaka so we just chilled in some cheaper club in leicester sq with free entrance...danced like mad...then went for supper at 2 am. had fu-kin rice at special zone 1997....i kid u not thats the name lol was pretty good. thereafter, me and mel crashed at shih yangs place with both of them having clases early in the morning lol.

had my train to catch at 2 pm that day and literally had seconds to spare b4 the train departed.....scariest experience ever since the walk in price for the latter trains wouldve costed 184 pounds as opposed to the 9.90 one im paying

due to all that rushing and lack of sleep throughout the whole trip, im currently down with the sickness and its freeaing ass cold back here in manc. just today i had this bloody training programme whihc was mandatory to keeping my job and like mana tahu by the 4th session there was seriously gonna be an exam at the end of the day.....will blog bout it later. i think this is the longest post ive ever churned out lol

i helped myself to some of the leftovers lol that was the last pic taht was taken right b4 the bat died...

amus housemates had a party

The amu in action

Boiled tong shui (was it tong shui?)

A super cool bridge connecting to amy's accomodation

totally empty on the 2nd floor with one group on the 1st haha so cool la. not surprised as ppl would naturally assume that all transport services are suspended till the snow clears up to a reasonable extent

So then i decided that i mite as well catch up on lost S5....just so happened after i watched the first episode, desmond was bound for oxford! so i had a feeling n checked whether the tube to oxford was operating and viola! the just resumed 15 minutes b4 i finished the episode ahhaha so i called amy and we headed for oxford on the 'tube'....like i said its a bus

ppl were even building them on ppls cars lol!

But the whole city of london that day became the biggest playground known as school was out and everyone couldnt get into work. It really is endearing to see random snowmen around like these lol

The nxt morning, the snow storm that hit the southwest was something that occurred once in 20 yrs.....lucky me :P

However, i was suppose to head off to oxford with amy that day but all the tubes/trains/bus services were suspended due to the adverse weather

More like a white cny than christmas haha

On my way home from marylebone....so pretty rite

Look at the amount of snow thats settled on our heads! ooo ok actually in real life it looked a bit more lol

Didnt matter, we still built a snowman on paul's head

Little did we know how heavy it got the whole time indoors

The texture of the snow was perfect....imagine getting ure hands in some lite fluffy ice cloud
or for those of u who have eaten iglool b4, yea its almost liek that

Then we visited some of mels frenz on the penthouse suite floor and they had this amazing rooftop terrace which was just bloody brilliant especially on a snowy night like that

Gambled bluff with champagne truffles

Then we called up steph as she wasnt able to join us for the dinner due to exam obligations

Binging on mels cny foodstuffssss

Then mana tahu the other 3 last minute oso potong stim don wanna follow us for the after party =p

Yi chieh parted ways first...(chieh can u grab it from here lol)

Then it started snowing!

Food was freaking awesome lo for the price we payed. Oh and we yamsenged with the kams we tapaoed from the malaysian hall cuz we didnt have anything else to yamseng with at the end of the dinner lol.

Everyone

Alas, its gold mine time

Then with a couple of hours more we walked around this mall called whiteleys i fink....thought there werent any malls in central london

More peeps

The peeps

Still with time to kill we had some belgian waffles

arghhgh.....2.49 pounds for the big bottle if im not mistaken

wahhh can go crazy in here man....in the uk u only get rubbish like irn-bru/fanta/lucazoid/oasis/coke ish kan?

with lots of time to kill till dinner, we lepakked in this kick-ass asian grocer with 100 PLUS! omgosh its been so so very long....

So we tapaoed a few mandarins :p

If u were wondering, yea this is what the canteen looks like....SUPER AWESOME MAN for a second there i almost forgot i was in the uk what with a huge crowd of malaysians around me in a typical office type canteen with amois/kakaks/fat wannabee mat rampit dudes serving malaysian food. yes and since it was an open house, food was being given out for free but we couldnt be bothered in the end cuz so many others were in for the free food as well and there was a never ending line....

Finally met up and made a huge unnecessary turn round the neighbourhood thx to someone b4 we finally reached the 7 pound p/n malaysian hall with some of the cheapest food in london lol

Continuing from where i left off from stellas', the nxt day we had our lodge reunion dinner. we were initially supposed to meet at trafalgar sq to see what the hub bub is all bout'. but lucky i din go cuz it was supposedly a total waste of time. So while waiting for them to meet me at bayswater to head to the malaysian hall for open house, i wandered around for a while and stumbled into a charming alleyway with a lion dance and an open house too but pai seh to go in lol.
