We're back in December once again. For Christmas!!! Woops, that's like 3 months ago right??? But I'm just too busy with my coursework that i literally forgot that i have a blog here =( 4 coursework to be due this month and all the dates are like so close to each other. Bad news is, I'm only done with ONE. Kill me pls ='( Anyway, as I promised, I will blog about my Xmas last year as it was a very special one.
East midlands train to London King's Cross
Christmas in Covent Garden
Trafalgar Square. The only tourist spot that
we visited. Xmas is like a BIG thingy for them.
So, its either the places were closed or we don't have
enough time for them.
A bunch of newbies in London =D
Xmas decor around Central London. So christmasy feel
right =)
Tea break in Cha Cha Moon. Or more like a dinner. Haha.
Love the food here.
Now, this is dinner. Look at the amount of food =s Sometimes
i do question myself. Am i here to eat or to study???
Winter wonderland in Hyde Park. Arghhh, too bad we were
there too late that we didn't have time to get on the rides =(
St.Paul's Cathedral. The place we spent
our christmas eve night. For the caroling
and worship. The feeling was so different.
I don know how to explain but it's just amazing.
Experience it yourself then you'll know =)
But one thing, out of so many songs they sang, i only
knew one. The only english song =.=
Did i mention to you that we had a free christmas lunch on
Xmas day itself??? The food was simply amazing even it was
FOC. And we had rounds and rounds till we can feel our
balloon stomach. Not that we were greedy that we kept going
for more rounds. But it's the people that keeps bringing us food.
After the main course, we had xmas pudding, sponge change with
custard, mince pie, cheese and biscuits. Now u know how nice are
the people in UK. For those that I've met so far ^^
Nice right nice right??? I heart this pic so
muchhh. To both. The place and the people.
Our main lead chefs. The apple peeler. The potato peeler.
The turkey molester. The chocolate melter. The dough
mixers.
Jeng jeng jeng!!!! Our very own homemade SUPERLICIOUS
christmas supper @11pm. With giant turkey, pig in the blanket,
baked parsnips, mashed potatoes with cheese and caesar salad.
It went from dinner to supper cause of the giant turkey that took
us 5 hours to roast it. We were practically starving during the
food-making session. Caesar salad was already 3/4 gone by the time
everything else was ready =p
While waiting for the food, this is what we do. Taking stupid
shots. Haha. Did i mention that i had my best mafia game
that night too??? Really salute them.
26th Dec. The day most of us are waiting
for. BOXING DAY!!!! Look what our little
tour guide did for us. But it did helped alot.
Especially when there's too many same shops
nearby to each other on the same street. LOL!!!
Look at the crowd outside the shops even before it was open.
Bad experience i had in Selfridges. And i swear i will never go
back there ever again on Boxing day. Those people were practically
crazyyyy. I didn't mean to enter but was pushed into the queue by
the crowd on the other side of the road. And ended up, being lifted
into the store. But at least i still get something from there =p
After causing a massive hole to my purse, we settled down
in this awesome restaurant for Korean food. Everything tasted
so good. Now i start wondering, if the food was really good or
it's because i was busy battling the whole day and didn't had anything
down my stomach except a cup of Starbucks toffee nut latte. Hmm......
After food, Karaoke was our next destination!!! I still miss KL's Neway
and Redbox though.
And for Stacia's birthday celebration!!!!
Our tradition again!!! Like for the past 2 years,
we always have our Xmas present exchange
session before the clock strikes 12. But this time
a bit late =p
Next morning in Harrods. Everything that looks
pretty comes with a price.
Our final lunch together @ Hare and Tortoise. The curry laksa
here tasted like heaven!!! Personally think it was better than
those i had in Msia. Miss it so muchhhh although i just had it
again few days ago =D
King's Cross station again. Back to Notts after a splendid 4
days 3 nights. Everything was the same back here except
with a huge hole in the wallet. Nahhh, you don't wanna know
how much i spent in just that few hours =p
Ya, so that's about it. My first Xmas in the country of the Whites. Definitely a memorable one.
And for now, back to my coursework ='( Critical Appraisal. Am i studying pharmacy or what??? !@^@^%$#@^%$
