Pictures~

HSBC building! Looks pretty interesting, yeah?

Told you. Haha~!

Those are taxis! :)

Yesterday's lunch, SUBWAY. Yum.

Check out the clouds!! I mean, you usually only see these clouds in PICTURES!!! WAHHH~

Hehe... the river at night.

Last but not least,

Breakfast in the restaurant downstairs this morning! :) Pretty good!

Hello!!

HELLO EVERYONE!!!
Yes, I'm alive!! :) Arrived at Heathrow airport yesterday around 6pm(1am Malaysian time). The 13 hour flight turned out to be alright! Haha~! Slept, watched movies, listened to music.. It got a little tiring, but I survived!~ XD Haha~~ Realised it's really nice to have someone waiting for you when you come out. :) My sister's friend was waving so excitedly when he saw us!

We decided to take the underground train to my accommodation as it is pretty expensive to get a cab. It was a good thing my sis's friend was there to carry all that heavy luggage up and down the stairs!!! It would've been horrible if it was just the two of us! Might not have managed. Hehe.. There was a HUGE breeze when the train was arriving. :) *fwahhh*
Arrived at my accommodation after taking a taxi from the station(the taxis are so spacious inside!), unpacked(which was kinda fast with help! YAY!) and rested. Tried to get internet connection but wasn't too sure how. (Yeah, I finally got it today, yay again!)

This is where I'm staying. :) That's my sis in the photo. Haha~

Heh. I don't need to explain this picture, do I?

Today,(it's still 24th Sept here actually. Hmm.. should I change the time zone on my blog too?) we tried walking to my school. Haha~ It was a pretty LOOOOOONG walk. I think I should get used to it though. Did a lot of walking today actually. Seems like there's a lot of walking involved in traveling around London. The weather was like air-con cold today, so it was alright, though it was REALLLLYYYYY windy. Sometimes it felt like the wind was pushing me back and it was difficult to walk forward and there was once I felt the wind pushing me forwards. HAHA! Oh yes, the underground train is actually very convenient to travel around, especially when you're tired or carrying heavy stuff.

When I was walking down the streets of London, I felt like I was in a story book! Really! It felt a little like a dream. Haha~ Is it just me? XD Oh! Buildings here are really quite different from home! :) Will take pictures and post them up another day. Haha~ Didn't take any today. (heh, so I won't get bored walking to school either, loads to see) We passed by many food shops, wonder how much the food cost. Everything seems ever so expensive when you convert!!

Alright then, that's about it. Hehe... Am actually pretty tired from all that walking!!! A lot of people walk here. When we were walking across Blackfriars bridge there were SOOOOOO many people! I can't really explain to you just how many, but yes, A LOT of people. Haha~ Noticed that most of them wear black coats. I must've been pretty easy to spot as I was wearing a pink jacket!! :)

Oh oh! Some interesting things I've noticed,
- They actually write down "LOOK LEFT" or "LOOK RIGHT" on the road to tell you which way to look before you cross the road!
- When you take the escalator, you stand on the right side so that people who are in a hurry can walk up using the left!!! (wow! Good system!)
- The traffic lights turn from red to yellow to green and back to yellow before turning red again! Hehe!!
- Not everyone's that tall!
- I'm shorter than most people by a head, MAYBE. Will have to conclude that another day. After I've been here longer..
- There are no fans or air conditioners in my room. It's like.. Genting! XD
- It's colder outside than inside. HAHA!! Must be the wind.
(Can't think of any else right now, so that'll be it)


HAHA! I saw this phone booth and thought, it's just like the one in the Harry Potter movie! *gasp!!!* Excuse my hair, as I said, STRONG WIND. It feels like the wind never stops sometimes. Haha~~ *brrrrrr*

Don't you just love the clouds? (On Blackfriars bridge. I will be crossing this everyday!) The view behind us was sooooo clear it looked like a picture out of a postcard or something. Hehe..

It's finally here!

For a moment there I thought I might not get it before I leave. Haha~~

Thanks maynipoops! XD

I have the sweetest friends ever!~ :)

Had my farewell party last Saturday. :)

6 more days till I'm...

"Leaving on a jet plane~~"

(Always thought people should sing that song when they're leaving. hehe.. My turn!)


A picture with my classmates and Cat. :)

After my classmates left for Wan Yie's party(she was having it on the same day too!!! Too bad I couldn't go. Hopefully I'll get to see her tomorrow before she leaves!!), my ballet friends arrived. HAHA!~ Uber late.
Who's fault was it? HAHAHAA~~ XD

"I don't care Li Ee, you're bringing it there!!!"
"What?! How!?" XD

Do I hand carry it!? For a 13 hour flight!?!? Haha~


*huggles*

The photos have arrived!!

"LI EEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Carmen screamed when she saw me. She grabbed me by the shoulders and screamed some more.

"WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL ME YOU'RE LEAVING SO SOON!!!"

"HOW CAN YOU DUMP US LIKE THIS!??!?!?!"

Heh.. heh...

"Ms. Mak!! How can you take Li Ee away from us!?!? She's leaving soooo soon you know!!"

"When is she leaving??" someone asks.

"24th!!!!!!!"

"23rd, 23rd." I correct her.

"EVEN EARLIER!!!!"

Haha... I'm gonna miss you guys so much. :) Now that I don't join the class, I hardly see you!!! *sob* And soon... I won't see you at all!! *sigh*

But this is a beautiful picture. :) My favourite picture EVER.

We finally got to do our own dance eh, Carmen?
Hehe.. Tomato's smiling! :) And Wee Nie looks like she's in a dream. XD

"She's leaving in less than 20 days!!"

I pause.

"Two weeks is... oh yeah, less than 20 days..."

Guess what guess what guess what!?

I have a laptop!!!

FINALLY.

About time, eh? Haha... Leaving in 2 weeks.

Gosh.

My elder sis arranged a surprise dinner for me today, to celebrate my achievement in the A level examination. Guess where we went?!?

Jogoya!! :)

What a surprise indeed! Hehe~~

Was my first time there. We walked one round around the place, "wow wow wow so much fooooood!!!" and then started eating. YUM.

Soon enough, I was too full to move. But the food was good. And so was the company.

First, all the sushi and sashimi you can eat! WAHHH!!!

HUGE oysters! XD

Okay, enough of food. I'm still feeling full. Haha~~

Regretted not bringing a jacket/sweater. Was SOOOO cold!
So I grabbed Shane to keep myself warm. HAHA~~

Happy cake eating people~



That's a marshmallow in her mouth. XD

My sis, the photographer thought the picture would look better if I looked away. XD!

What cutely shaped coconuts!


And last but certainly not least,
THE KISS OF DEATH! XD

Thanks, sis!!~
