Missing in Action Report

Been few days I did not update my blog. These few days were a bit busy + poor internet connection. Anyway I felt that I had somewhat got used to life in UK :D Despite the cold weather and the increase in ang mohs, it is almost same as Malaysia :D although I do admit that I missed Malaysia food already.. T_T char kuey tiao... kak kueh... hokkien mee...

HOWEVER!!!

Notice that I have not miss Nasi Lemak yet. Why is that? Well, I just had nasi lemak day before yesterday :P Not some ang moh style nasi lemak.. MALAYSIAN NASI LEMAK!! XD Thanks to Shen's group of friends, I finally got to eat actual Malaysian food!! Thanks guys :D And also that sweet potato tong sui XD it was delicious :P

Yesterday my class finally started. Class was.. nice? =x Imagine having all lectures taught by Ms. Winnie Cheong (cancel the quizzes), that's the feeling and excitement I was having during the lectures XD After class went home and start thinking about dinner ._. Initially we planned to cook. Thanks to Shen, we went out to eat Red Chillies again~ at the same time to celebrate Sim for moving in our place XD

Well today was quite a nice day :P

Good news:

1. Sim finally settled her accommodation problem and moved in :D
2. Downloaded all my notes that were available at the moment
3. Bought cotton pants :P
4. Went to the city to register for Internet XD
5. Get pizza from Domino Pizza for 1 Pound :P
6. Successfully exchanged the arrangement of the living room XD

Bad news:

Ying (Bad) Yang (Good) Day @@

This is a delayed post (due to Internet failure).

BAD day at first-,- I woke up in the morning and was soo enthusiastic in meeting new friends from Psychology Year 2. After breakfast (bread+mustard+ham+cheese+sambal dried shrimp+black pepper) I got a slight ache on my head. Well~ it was only a slight pain so I didn't bother much about it @_@; however, it got worse and worse every minute and end up I got migraine!! For those who are new to this word, migraine is "an intense and throbbing pain, which often occurs in one side of the head, although it can be more generalised. Migraines fall into two main categories, without aura (common migraine) and with aura, or classic migraine. Around 1 in 6 cases of migraine are preceded by an aura.

An aura is a warning sign that appears between 15 minutes and one hour before the headache starts." (McNeil Healthcare (UK) Limited, 2010).

Because of that, I had to sleep for almost a day just to get rid of the pain. I woke up during the afternoon and had lunch with my cousin Ah Muan kor. :D Kudos to him that he had successfully passed the interview for a new company (paiseh ah because of my meet you ate bar food instead of dim sum ._.) During the meet for Year 2 Psychology which is 2 pm, I was shocked that the whole room has only 3 (including me) Chinese.. (or maybe 3 Malaysians) and both of them were from HELP :D Lai Kian Tiah and Jing Han XD well i guess i need to increase my number of friends here @@.

After the meet i went back home to register 1 more additional elective subject.. apparently my internet failed me after that @_@ after watching 2 episode of 公主嫁到 (Can't Buy Love), which is a nonsensical comedy, i went back to bed. -,-

Can't Buy Love

I woke up at dinner time when Shen's friend, Alicia came. Dinner was cooked by Shen I guess.. =x (Sorry ah Sim if you actually cooked some of it :P) After dinning with Alicia, we played The Game of Life (since my headache was gone by then). I wonder whether is it beginner's luck, I WON THE GAME XD!!

Game of Life (Electronic Version)

After all the fun, i went to bath while Shen send Alicia and Sim off. After that I started to fill in my application form for part time work at QHotels.

QHotels Application Form

Woah.. it's already 1.30 am here.. Time to sleep :D bye.. :)

Greetings from Leeds :D

Phew @_@ bad internet connection here~

ANYWAY I am writing this post to update my blog on my arrival at Leeds!! yay~~ I arrived at Manchester Airport in the afternoon on 22th September. My brother came to help Ying Sim, his bao bei and me on our luggages in the airport that day. We took a train from Manchester to Leeds, which took around 1 hour and 10 minutes. We reached Leeds Station around 4.10 and then took a cab to return to our accommodation, Blenheim Terrace :D

While Shen was helping Sim on her accommodation, I simply borrowed Internet use ID. The connection is super bad as the university is quite far from my place in terms of WiFi distance. However I was truly grateful that I was still able to talk to everybody in Malaysia through the bad internet connection :D That night was a blast (despite the fact that we waited half an hour to get a sit)! We ate at Red Chillies, a Chinese Restaurant in Leeds.

The food there was nice although a bit salty; however, the portion was too big that we had to take home the leftovers =x I slept well that night, which either due to jet lag or the cold weather :D

23th September.. I woke up and tasted Shen's Oreo cheesecake. Initially he planned to give Sim a surprise yesterday but we were too full to continue eating =x The cake was excellent (although not as tasty as mom's =x). We got out at 9 am to get my registration done. Seriously I can't

believe i didn't take a bath but wash up only in the morning @@ Oh well.. as my bro said, I need to get use to the lifestyle here ._. After registrations, we went to buy some groceries. it was fun walking with them (the way Sim force my bro to eat vegetables and fruits was epic! XD).

In the evening, Shen took a nap while both Sim and me were using the internet. At around 6.30pm.. I cooked XD Thanks to Sim for helping me with the in

gredients (she was good at it) while I fried the long beans and cook the tofu. The dinner was.... interesting.. @@ not to mention that the bean isn't cooked enough, the tofu had this weird sourly taste that i don't really like. Oh well, everybody has his first time, right? XD

Long Beans

Tofu with minced meat

Okay that's all for today's post :D sleepy now~~ craving for bed~~ night :D

Bye 36°C and Hi 10°C

Hey guys.. this is a scheduled blog post :D Today i will be leaving Malaysia and head to Leeds, UK for my 2nd Year Bachelor of Psychology.

Family:

Mom and Dad.. thanks for supporting me to go overseas. The cost of studying there is soo expensive that i almost dropped my jaws when I realized it. I also wanted to thank you for helping me in my application to the university and my visa. Without both of you, I don't think that I will be able to settle these smoothly. I promise both of you that I will do my very best and save my money in Leeds. :D Thanks for helping me pack, too @@ I was seriously amazed that all the stuff could fit into one big luggage bag :D

Ann.. thanks for everything you had done for me. Seriously when Shen went to UK i am in need of a person to joke around and kacau me. :D im very happy that you even skip your class today just to go hang out together..

Ah Ma Ah Gong.. Thanks for coming down to KL for 2 weeks just to see me off :D I was deeply touched by that.

September 20th...

This will be the actual first post for this blog. :D I went to Midvalley today with Leonard, Kim, and Jon to watch 'Piranha' (Yeah, this movie was out quite long ago~). The movie was at 1.30 pm. While waiting for it, we went to Carls Jr. for lunch! XD Due to some "technical difficulties", Jon the sei yea arrived later than we planned =x After lunch we went for the movie :P

Well.. if you ask me how was the movie, I could only say OMG!! THAT was disgusting ._. watching the piranhas biting off people's flesh little by little was super gross.. This had made me closed my eyes almost throughout the show @@. However, some part of the show was too bloody that i couldn't see what had happened.. Despite the censored scenes, the show is quite... interesting... i guess @@.

Anyway after the movie, Leo and Kim went back. Jon and I then walk around Midvalley. We ended up in MPH bookstore and spent some time there looking at books and magazines.. After a cup of ice cream in New Zealand Natural, we headed home =x thanks for this outing sei yeas and Kim. I had a great time with you guys. XD

After I got home, I started this blog.. Oh well.. still have much to learn about blogging. @@ Okay time to pack. Ciaoz :D

Intro...

First of all, I never knew that I will start a blog.. @@ Anyway, here it is :D I will update this blog when anything interesting happen or when i feel like it. Therefore try not to wait for a new post every single day as that will NEVER happen (sotong can't remember to post everyday)!!

Well.. That's all I wanted to say for the first post. =x (hey, I'm new in this kind of thing, okay?) Will try to use more of the functions in the other post. :P

Hope this blog will last long :D
