Octobelly ♥

See how time flies. The last time I signed in was almost a month ago. I still remember dragging myself out of bed on the first day of class and now what? Week 5 just ended!!! Fourth year is totally not like any other previous years. Masters level now and everything seems a thousand times harder *sobs*

Who says all the fun should stop although it's gonna be a tough year? It's my last year of uni life, my last year as an undergraduate student and my last year to enjoy life before stepping into the working world. I definitely do not want to miss anything out and regret later =D

October started off with birthdays again! In Cafe Rouge. My current favourite place for french food =) Guess who's the birthday baby? Scroll down further and you'll know.


For the birthday boy


His treat. With his first salary. Red and white wine.
Which made me dizzy dizzy before my main course came ><


Wanna know why this place is my current favourite? Simple!
5 out of 7 ordered duck confit while the other two had lamb and
chicken. Guess that proves how good was the duck confit. The
best that I've had so far ^^


Still guessing who's the birthday baby?! A hint was already
given =p


The Birthday boy. Happy Birthday, Kelvin!!! Our drama
queen. Keep the drama going!!!

♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

It's Tuesday. What that tells you? Bet you won't know if you're not from Notts =p

It's the Oriental Night again! Oriental loves Neon in Coco Tang.


One from college to uni ; the other from primary school to
uni.


A decent picture of us which I really love. I can still remember
the caption: Friendship is like a violin; the music may stop
now and then, but the strings will last forever =)


The girls. Those that I managed to take a picture with =)
Why do I always have the smallest eyes among the girls?
WHYYYYY =(


Pre-drinking session with some new friends


Stolen from FB =p Look at the crowd that night.


Despite the crowd, we still managed to capture a piece of
memory without all the heads and hands blocking ^.^

Too many funny and embarrassing moments that night. But who cares? It's a night to sweat and have fun. A great night indeed. After the alcohol and dance, the heat was enough to keep us warm at a temperature less than 10 celcius. Walking out at that temperature without any coat and tights on. Impressive isn't it? At least for a person who is so afraid of cold, like yours truly.

I simply love our timetable this semester. Most of the fridays are off days. Jealous much? Hehe. So why waste it? Weekend getaways are the best time killer =)


Bath, Somerset was the destination


After checking into the hostel, we came over
to this must-visit-place-in-Bath. The Roman
Baths.


My travel partners. Meet my two new petite partners, Wei
wei and Vee Mae.


It's all about the history. But nothing is more
interesting than this glass of healing water.
Which smells like rotten fish and tasted like
blood *yucks*


The day ended with a decent 3 course dinner
in this restaurant named The Hole in the Wall.
Cute isn't it?


Rise and Shine! After breakfast, we headed off to the Royal
Crescent which is actually a residential road of 30 houses
laid out in a crescent.


Bath Abbey was the next stop. A place where earth and
heaven meet. We took a tour up to the tower which
overlook the entire city of Bath.


Bath Abbey. Day vs Night.


At the peak of the Tower


Through the peeping hole


My favourite group picture <3


Souvenir from the cathedral. A bookmark
which reads; I've climbed up the 212 steps
of Bath Abbey tower and down again. 212?
Sap sap sui la =p


A must-try in Bath. The Bath Bun! If you're
wondering what's so special about it, I can tell
you this. It's nothing to wow about. It's basically
just a rich, sweet yeast dough shaped round that
has a lump of sugar baked in the bottom and more
crush sugar sprinkled on top after baking =.=


Another must-try in Bath. The ever famous Sally
Lunn's Bun. Which I thought was overrated as well.
The savoury bun with smoked salmon was rather
tasty but the cinnamon butter with clotted cream
bun was a tad too sweet for my liking. Perhaps those
with really sweet tooth will love it =)


Another world heritage site after Bryggen. Stonehenge.
I'm still wondering what's so nice about this few pieces
of randomly stacked rocks >.<


Came so far just for a picture =)

♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

Another birthday. But this time, a super super belated one. So so sorry for the late birthday celebration, our August baby. But better late than never, right? =0


In Cafe Rouge again. Duck confit conquered the table again.
Being indifferent, I tried something else instead. The
seafood pot which was good too. But still can't beat the duck
confit! *missing it so much now*


The n-th time 'Happy Birthday' from me
to you =D


The Randalamos with Yinny's love, Chong Yi <3

♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

Oovoo date on a Saturday evening with the besties. From all around the world.


Miss Pao from Malaysia, Siew Yee from Belfast, Qian from
Malaysia, Moi from Notts and Liz from Christchurch. Poor
Liz for staying up till 6am in the morning just for this oovoo
date. Get more sleep, girl!


It's us with our soft toys. From puppies to bears.

Me missy you guys so much. Another year to go till we can finally meet again, face to face. And I shall wait patiently =)

October has always been my love. Why?

You'll know when the next blogpost is up.

I think I better stop here and go help out my housemates for the small party later. Before the others crash our place with the wines and liquors. I love friday nights!

Have a great weekend everyone XOXO

Changes

Yours truly is back on track!!! As healthy as a wealthy.

Hmm, probably a tick for healthy*left with gastric attack now*. But wealthy? Definitely a NO!

Today's weather was perfect. Warm and sunny. I'll never ask for a better weather than this. This is the first time I've ever jog without a jacket and I SWEAT *wow*. Whether you believe or not. It's hard to sweat here. Really really hard and I always feel uneasy for not sweating for such a long time.

And you know what? I almost embarrassed myself after the jog. I almost knocked on the wrong house door. Forgetting that I've shifted over to House 31 and no more House 72. Luckily the idea of it not being my house hit me just right before I barged into their compound. Partly because I know my house door is brown and not white anymore >.< How stupid is that?

Now I've received the wake up call. Calling me. To face the reality and adapt to the changes around me. Although I don't quite like it now. But with time, I'll get used to it. Probably fall in love with it too.

*To my beloved housemates, don't get me wrong. I'm totally not talking about the house*


~Change always comes bearing gifts~
*missing my straight hair*
