holiday update!

Hi people!
Sorry for not updating sooner. I was in Barcelona! It was fun and nice! But the sun was hot enough to give me a sunburn! However, most important thing is that i had fun with family and Louis!So here are some pictures of Barcelona taken by Louis.
The view is a beauty and I walked so much like i have never walk that much before..even Louis agreed!
Gaudi's famous buildings..A real beauty. Unfortunately, he has to die in such a tragic accident.




Sagrada Familia; another church built by Gaudi.












How nice! 8pm and still bright. Love it! I wish it is sunny all day long, cause it definitely will make my day!
Lastly, a picture of Louis and myself at Monserrat, Barcelona. Its on a hill and u can see an amazing view too!

Lunch and Bicester Village - Oxford.

As promised, a post about the lunch we had in Oxford. It was quite a walk from the city to this restaurant but all I can say is that it is really worth that walk!
The Big Bang restaurant. Love the ambience! Thank goodness for our printed vouchers...buy 1 get 1 free!
When we sat down, each of us were given a book like this. And i was wondering, "wow, they even give each of us a thick book to read?"

But when i opened the book, it was actually a menu! Cute right? 

















So, after we ordered the food, we decided to camwhore a little. Hehe..
Hong Ping and Suet Ling. A lovely couple!

Tiong Teck and Milo, another lovely couple! hehehe...











                                                                            Suet Ling, Sue Jean, myself and Tiong Teck

Ahh, and finally! The long awaited Bangers and Mash! Lovely, absolutely lovely. 

So, after the lovely meal, we headed to Bicester Village where they sell branded goods at a cheaper price. Mind you, although they say it is cheaper, but, really...its not that much cheaper, ok?


I left my heart at Jimmy Choo...

Then, there's Jack Wills too...

And a cute shop that looks like a cottage. I made my friends stand there! hehe..
Oh, and not forgetting Starbucks which is probably the only thing i can afford there!


Went back and feeling tired which dragged on to the next day. But I did had fun! What a lovely time!

A visit to Oxford!

Few weeks ago, my friends and I decided to head to Oxford just for the fun of it. It was supposed to be 22 of us, but ended up only 8 of us actually went. What a joke!
Anyway, I guess its good too. We had fun, and the group was not too big too!
So, hence the word Oxford, this was the first picture we took when we arrived. 

How could we not take pictures when we see Jamie Oliver's restaurant, right? Wanted to try, but when we walk back for lunch, the queue was terribly long and we peeped inside to see the portion of the food was really small too. When my friend went in to ask how long do we have to wait if we want a table for 8, and the waiter told us to wait for 2 hours! Believe it or not? And we always complain when we have to wait 20minutes for a table in Chillis! LOL!
So, we ended up going somewhere much better! Will show u guys in the next post. 

The Bodleian Library. This is where they made the movie Harry Potter. Unfortunately, we couldnt get inside the library because the next tour will only be at 2.30pm and we were rushing for time as we wanted to go to this place call Bicester Village. 


Nice building, eh? It is part of the Oxford University. 

 This is the Oxford university.

Beautiful buildings around the streets.

Just love this picture and how the sun reflects the picture.

Lastly, an almost group picture of us. 
 
Minus me!

Free day, baking day!


Free day Sunday! Decided to bake some cookies today! A therapy..I baked Cornflakes Cookies! Thought it was a little too sweet, but my friends said it was good. So, oh well...probably its just me. I dont fancy having too sweet stuff. 



Ahh, done with baking! Waiting for it to cool down.


Cookies, ready to attack!


I just made into a flat shape..so, it kinda expanded to quite big! haha!



A picture of the chef for the day! 

May Lim's birthday

As I was telling you guys my last assignment was handed in on Friday! Boy, that was a relief! Feeling so good now, and happy...I guess?! Now is just the anticipation of collecting my results. So, on Friday night, we decided to have pizza. 7 of us, with 4 large pizzas and 2 appetizers. 1 large pizza has 10 slices! We had a leftover of 1 whole pizza!

Some of the other girls went out to city and have dinner at this place call, 'Wagamama'. It is quite famous. But most of us were just too tired to go out. Can u imagine? Having sleepless nights and just assignment the whole week. Really damn stress!

Anyway, good that its over! The assignment really took a toll on us. Now all of us are feeling sick and tired. The post-AIC feeling. 
********************************************************************

So, the next day, we went to the city and had lunch buffet @ Flavourz for my house mate, May Lim's birthday!


Ahh, we got her a pyjamas and eye patch for her birthday! She was flaunting the undies in the restaurant! E-hem...dont know what to say. hehe..


Milo and myself





Yummy noodles! Just queue up and put how much noodles, chicken, prawns, and vegetables on a plate you want, and they will fry it for you. That includes thosai (which they call is as 'dosa') and naan bread!


Love the vegetable puff and spring rolls!


The twin brothers! Hehe..just jk..they wore almost the same shirt, coincidentally! How hilarious!

Sze Tho and myself

An of course, a group photo..

Nice!

Great outing, and great company. Love it..

Sorry for abandoning the blog. It will resume in no time. I assure you. I have been busy with assignments and dint had the chance to update. Gosh, the assignment has taken a toll on me.

Although with one week off, and I thought I should have enough time to do my assignment...Boy, i was wrong!
Really so much to do...and edit, and think! I felt hungry all the time. Sleepless nights..maybe about 2-3 hours of sleep a night for the past week. Really so tired! Worst part, i exceeded the word limit if I would include the referencing (The referencing is about 350-400 words). I think it is very obvious that i exceeded if i would to include the referencing in. So, let's hope my lecturer will let me off..or else, he will deduct 10 marks, ok? Not a joke..10 MARKS! Yes, people..pray for me! Really need it.

So, will post up some pictures tomorrow of the things I have been up to..Stay tuned!

How true can this be? Apparently, pretty much accurate.


Who is your true self: You are mature, reasonable, honest and give good advice. People ask for your comments on all sorts of different issues. Sometimes you might find yourself in a dilemma when trapped with a problem, which your heart rather than your head needs to solve.
Your view on yourself: 
The type of girlfriend/boyfriend you are looking: 
Your readiness to commit to a relationship: 
Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ :You prefer to get to know a person very well before deciding whether you want to be in the relationship with the person
The seriousness of your love: 
Your views on education: 
Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ :You want to study hard
Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ :Learn as much as you can
The right job for you: 
Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ :You're a practical person
Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ :You'll be set for life
How do you view success: 
Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ :You are afraid of failure
What are you most afraid of: 
Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ :The way others see you
Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ :Not what you wear

This is scary..Damn it!
