Cold Weather, Cold Food

Week 2 just ended and I'm still depress over the same issue since last week. No hot food. Brought omelette and brocolli on the first day of class. Was anticipating lunch so that i could eat my own home-cooked food. First bite......... yuckssss to the very max. Clarification for the readers. It wasn't the taste. I never doubt my skills, ask my housemates =) But it's something worse than that i would say. It was icy cold. Normally at home, i would never touch cold food which was meant to be hot. But here, i gotta force myself to finish it. This really makes me feel like crying. ='(

Now blame the weather. Weather here is confusing. Sunny but strong wind. Sunny but drizzling. Even crappy, sun-less. Every morning, i had to open the curtains and look out to check if it's windy. If yes, means thicker coat and no shorts for the day. But sometimes, it can be really deceiving. The weather might look good in the morning but turns crappy the rest of the day. Just like today. Rained the entire afternoon and it's still raining now.

Bout the uni, its BIG. Capital letters B-I-G. Thought it would be cool to have such big uni huh. Now that I've experienced it, I totally dislike dislike dislike. I wish it could be just as big as UNMC. Most of my classes are in QMC and Pope Building. Occasionally, the chemistry building. We had to switch classes every single period and imagine we only have 5 minutes to run from one place to another. Mind you, the distance is not near.

Apart from this, everything seems good. For the time being. Loving my ballet, contemporary dance and pilates class. So to cut it short, I still enjoy being here although there's so much complains piled up.

Malaysian Food

People always say, you will only miss something when it's not there anymore or when it's way too hard to get it. So trueeee. This is how much i miss the typical Malaysian food, Nasi Lemak. Miss the rice, miss the rendang, miss the fried anchovies, miss the spicy sambal and the smell of coconut milk. How can Malaysians not miss this???

Thanks to NMS for providing us with free Nasi Lemak. Such heavenly food. So sick of potatoes, spaghetti and fries.


Involuntary salivation again ~.~




The NMS members


Please don't look at this with your mouth wide
open. You think i have the capability to finish
all of these??? Maybe i do, after 100 hours famine.


See see see. So greedy, wanna steal the whole
bag home. But ermm, miss author here, did took
one home. Just one. Don't wanna waste food
maaaaaa =p

Mid Autumn Festival 2010

Busy buzy week this week. Fresher's Fair on the go and freebies is everywhere =p Finally its over and i can start cleaning up my room. So much of unnecessary stuff. Told them i had it already, and what they reply you is forever the same sentence; it's free it's free, just take. SWT. Now i have tonnes of domino's free personal voucher. Anyone interested, come look for me.

It was just like yesterday when we had out first mid autumn festival celebration together in Kuantan. With those small little mooncakes. Another year flew pass and we're still together celebrating this special day. Except we're now in this place which has no mooncake anymore. It was seriously a bit cram where 11 of us (Randalamos+Stacia+Yinjen+Jhen) had to squeeze in that confined dining area and not to forget, that Jacky had to practice the yoga chair pose while having her dinner due to limited chairs. Haha.


Chinese westernish home-cooked dinner over the night where
there's suppose to be a full moon.


Green bean with seaweed. First time and I bet
my expression tells everything.

The 'cramness' increased to maximum when a group of engineering seniors crashed our house with mooncakes in their hands. Our life saver, killer to our cravings. Eventually, we had to move over to their house for the drinking and games session. More mooncakes too. =p I won't mention more about the dare game we played cause the one i got dared was darn disgusting. But i cheated and they din realize. Shhhhhh.......Thanks to my long hair =)


From just Bacardi, it ended up with Baileys, Tequila, Smirnoff,
Bacardi and Cointreau. Baileys, Smirnoff and Bacardi was the best.
Tequila might be good if we had lemon. Yucks to Cointreau. The
green bottle at the end, was kept away from us cause it contains
64% alcohol and we had class the next day. A question by Kai Yee
which I find it really relevant and funny at the same time. "Can this
be used as disinfectant?"


The Malaysians.

Note to LC: Please don't drink so much anymore. Don't sway your way home and drop your lumix baby down the stairs again. >.<

Welcome Program

Had a great weekend with free accommodation on campus and free food due to the welcome program catered for us, the international students =) So embarrassed when i reach the bus stop. Everyone carries a backpack and me, a luggage as if i'm going to Manchester. Why am i always doing stupid stuff like this??? Zzzz. Ended up we only stayed over for the second night and walked all the way again from home to Rutland hall for breakfast. Crazy far especially with that bag of mine which has my laptop that i used for only 20 minutes that night in it. I will never never do this again just for that free breakfast =s


The Downs. On the way from Portland to Rutland. Everywhere
is just so pretty that i desperately need a new camera. Just simply
snap and the pic still captures your heart. Mummy, if u happen to
stalk me and read this before i call u again, please say u will buy one for me =)


Rutland Hall




On campus accommodation wasn't that bad after all except
the internet is a bit slow compared to our 20mb at home =D


Loving the greens everywhere


English Breakfast. Not bread again???? =(


Dinner with Fish & Chips




Miss Lonely isn't lonely ^.^

Just yesterday,on the Monday, we went to Hooters for all-you-can-eat chicken wings. Guys are there for something else i suppose. I think i ate almost 20 chicken wings cause not finishing, is definitely a sin. That sounds a bit insane but ermmmm. Hehe. That's why we had Grolsch and a bottle of corona later to cool the heatyness. It was great to know that i didn't dream of chicken wings last night. Instead, i miss the chicken wings now~~~~~


6 Flavours to be chosen. For me, all taste the same. Taste of
Tabasco =p


A bucket full of meatless chicken wing. Poor chicky chick.


Funny isn't it???


It always us =)

My Little New Crib

Here's my new crib for the coming one year. House 72. Montpelier Road. An ordinary double story terrace, with 3 rooms and a kitchen.


My cozy room with a shelf full of my face and hair products.
Bottom lever for ma books which is still on their way here
from Malaysia. Probably in the middle of the sea now ~.~


My big wardrobe. Poor girl has to do her own laundry now.
And dry the clothes in my own room due to the crazy weather
outside. Its good in a way that the heater would suck water from
those wet clothes rather from my soft smooth skin =p


Yup, its my study table there and kinda still in the mess when
i took this pic. Blame the shopping. =p But it's tidy now.


View outside my window. The backyard suitable for gardening.
But I'll rather garden in my own room than to freeze myself outside.


Random but i like. My new house slippers which is so warm and
comfy <3 <3

The house is not complete without filling in the fridge and kitchen cupboards. Hence, Sainsbury and Argos is the right place to go.


£60 worth of groceries. Cheap??? Learn the art of not
converting and u'll enjoy shopping for groceries like me.
*not just for groceries of coz =p*


Wonder how we carry those stuffs back? Lucky us to have free
car ride that day =)

P/s: Miss my family and friends back in Msia. And him too =( Gosh, i miss the weather too!!!!!
