Houses of Parliament

Westminster Abbey --world famous for being the resting place of centuries of British monarchs, and as the place where coronations and other royal pageants take place, with every coronation since 1066 having took place here. It is an architectural masterpiece of the 13th to 16th centuries, and within its walls can be seen some of the most glorious examples of medieval architecture in London. Westminster Abbey contains one of the most impressive collections of tombs and monuments in the world. Inside its very walls you will find the Confessor�s Shrine, the tombs of Kings and Queens, and countless memorials to people great and famous throughout history. In 1965-66, Westminster Abbey celebrated its 900th anniversary.

The National Gallery

The British Museum This is the real mummy ..... Scary but interesting .... finally i met the real mummy !!

Sir Christopher Wren's masterpiece - St Paul's Cathedral - crowned by the magnificent dome that is so much a part of the London skyline. The Cathedral was rebuilt after the Great Fire of London in 1666. In recent years it has seen the wedding of Charles, Prince of Wales, to Lady Diana Spencer and, most recently, the thanksgiving services for both the Golden Jubilee and 80th Birthday of Her Majesty the Queen.

Lunch in a restaurant in ChinaTown -- u know how much is this fried rice ?? it's £4.80

the Big Ben -- is famous the world over for being the giant four faced clock in London, England, but infact its not the name of the clock at all. Big Ben is the name of the giant 14-tonne bell that hangs inside the clock tower and chimes every hour of every day in England. The huge bell was hung in 1858 and named after Sir Benjamin Hall, Chief Commissioner of Works at the time the bell was hung. The bell is the second giant bell to be hung, the first one became cracked during a test ringing. However, the present bell also has a slight crack. Big Ben is the largest clock in Britain and has kept exact time for the nation since May 1859. It has four 23ft (7.5m) dials (one on each face) and the minute hand is 14ft long and made of hollow copper for lightness. In England you can hear Big Ben chiming daily the nation over, either on television news or radio

My Weekend

Dover Trip on 11th Oct 2008
Another weekend again … I almost have the same routine everyday … wake up at 7.30am à eat breakfast à preparing for class à during class à back home à dinner à sometimes do homework à sleep … this is wat I do everyday … finally weekend comes … actually v hav no planning at all … our seniors bring us around … No internet access at home really cause a lot of inconvenience …I have to spend my 1 hour break wisely everytime … precious 1 hour break … v can stay in the computer room … It’s a 40 mins trip from Canterbury to Dover which is a port nearby Europe … actually v thought of going to paris but the time for the ferry is fixed … V visited the DOVER MUSEUM and DOVER CASTLE … the insight of the castle doesn’t seems like fascinating compare to its outside view … it’s only stone wall n steep staircase inside the castle … whereas the outdoor view is one of my favourite scenery since I came to UK … v finally saw the sea !! hehe … and v spent almost 35 mins walking to the WHITE CLIFF where v initially have no idea how to go there … this is a wonderful place … perhaps I was too exhausted walking n walking non stop for almost 3 hours , I kinda lack of interest … but still I was impressed by the scenery … hehe … and finally v have taste the KFC in UK … erm …… I preferred KFC in Malaysia … much tastier … there’s no smashed potatoes here … they have baked beans or the gravy of the smashed potatoes … now the input(KFC) = output (walking for more than 3 hours)… haiz …. On diet next time la… this is wat I think … haha …. V reached home around 9 something …. VERY EXHAUSTED !!!

Dover Castle

My 20th Birthday

This is the first time tat I celebrate my birthday in oversea … it was a long long day especially it’s Sunday … v dun have any place to go besides the City Centre where v go there almost 5 days per week …. Although v always visit this place , I still get confused with the shops there …. N my uni too …. I really have no sense of direction …. Whenever I dunno which way to go , I will simply walk till I saw a place tat I wanna go ……. Haha …. Keep exploring n keep discovering …. Since I din go out today ,Vivian and I did the vacuum job n cleaned the toilet as well (Vivian did most of the hard chores.. good gal!!!)after tat, I stayed inside my room almost the whole day watching movie (‘Old School’- very funny movie about sex) & Animation(‘Lovely Complex’-about a tall gal fall in love with a short guy).. my frens felt very strange tat I did not appear in the living room …. Haha…. I thought my birthday will b s usual s the weekend life ….. my new fren Sabrina (with Vivian and CY) made a chocolate birthday cake … it’s yummy .. n I ate 2 pieces …It has been a long long time I ever eat a cake .. everytime I go to the Rutherford College to take lunch , I saw cakes ……. I dunno wat type of cake but it looked very delicious …… hohoho finally I can eat a cake today …. Felt so satisfied ….. I wonder how they made it ……hehe…and v had our dessert too … Sabrina cooked it …. It’s potato with ginger “tong sui”… and v ate curry chicken too ……a taste of Malaysian food ……..i feel so contented … haha …. Although v r far from our home country , I felt contented tat v still can taste some of the Malaysian food sometimes …..the most surprised event is tat they put the candle deep down the cake n asked me to use my mouth to pick it up…. Actually I was thinking tat they wont do anything to me coz the cake is very precious n al of us r looking forward to eat it …. Eventually they did pushed my head n my whole face cover with the sugar n chocolate powder ( which they placed on top of the cake) ….. I have to admit tat I’m too careless .. hehe ….(mayb I keep thinking to eat tat cake) … hehe …. I WANNA THANKS TO MY FRENS , VIVIAN (making the cake and wedges ), KATHY (pc karaoke) , PHEI SZEE (curry) , YEAN ZHENQ (did the cooking) , SABRINA (cake, dessert & chrysanthemum tea) & Cheng Yuen (mysterious gift) FOR CREATING SUCH A MEMORABLE 1ST OVERSEA BIRTHDAY !!! It’s a tired day ….it’s 12am something now .. gonna sleep …. Tomorrow will b the start of my second week uni life ……….

simple but delicious !!!

New Life

It’s about 2 weeks since I came to UK . I started to adapt to the life in UK but not the University life . I din actually join any of the club or society coz I can’t get transport to travel to uni at night . Most of the activities are hold at night . And I can’t actually get into the subjects tat I have here . Most of the reason is tat I din take further maths and eco during A- level . There’s a lot of students from China in my class . And the students in uk are very active . They like to ask question in the lecture . And they also seems like did a lot of revision everyday . everyone seems to b very hardworking . I’m still in the mood of holidaying now . Have to wake up la !!! I feel very tired n sleepy every night n I sleep early everyday too… My life really change a lot … and I have to force myself to wake up everyday . and the timetable is so packed . sometimes I dun even know I have class . For instance , the Algebra lecturer cancelled the class on Tuesday 4pm but he sent a mail at 2pm to inform us there’s class at 4pm . oh my god !!! Who else will check the mail at 2 pm ?! It’s really a disaster tat my house still dun have internet access . I feel like I have been left out from the real world . I dun even know a bout anything from my home country and also my family , frens and relatives . It’s very hard to contact them . Luckily I bought a skype phone tat can talk to them when they online . Some how I cant use it coz usually I will b having class when everybody is online . wat I can do is to access to the internet whenever I have an hour break . I really miss the food in Malaysia . prawn mee , pan mee , laksa, curry chicken , nasi lemak , ………………etc ……one thing tat I really like to live in Malaysia is the food . hahahaha… I can even get to taste food from different countries too such as Korean (bbq chicken is yummy!!!!!!!), Japanese , Italian ………. Most importantly it is cheap too ……. The food in uk is very expensive …. Although the raw food “sounds” cheap (around 1.50pound for small pack of vegetables) , it’s quite expensive in Malaysia lo……. I try not to compare the price ….. but it’s impossible currently at this stage . I have a sudden feel like I will prefer to stay in Malaysia to study for anything ….. haha…. Coz everything is convenient in malaysia …… It’s easy to get a meal or anything to eat …… I cant find any place to have supper here ……. I mean some place like mamak stall la n I miss the time tat v yum cha together at night…..some more I eat bread everyday too ….. N the most common food I can find here is sandwiches …. No doubt the sandwiches here r quite delicious ……. But currently I found tat there’s small variety of food ….. Perhaps v will have some fun over here too ..fun due to our mistakes…… pouring too much salt in vege , wash my clothes in washing machines without soap ,…… life without parents assisting will b a disaster ….. but this is the time for us to learn to b independent …..
