OK so lets start with london.. it was a really nice trip. =@) to summarise:
- fri night:met up with ling ching at her halls of residence where she cooked me and her friends tandoori chicken with brown rice ( ever so healthy she is) and had a really nice chit chat session over dark chocolate and plums. haha
- sat:saw my darling sabina, took me forever to find her lil house which she shares with 4 other medics but got there in the end. had a really nice time at portobello market where I made my one and only purchase - a beautful mint coloured mullberry lookalike bag. walked along high street kensington with her before saying good bye
- next met up with deborah! at harrods.. but we didnt stay long and walked along knightsbridge area.. i was quite grumpy by then cos i had been on my feet for like 6.5 hours? haha.. went bk to hails flat and dieded on my bed.
- sunday: met up with astrid! in china town and had a meal at wong kei - which is famous for its terrible service haha.. and it did live up to its name. walked around covent garden for a bit which was very nice.. my fav area in london!
- next met up with Em and had a quick tea with her in Cafe Nero at Warren street station. was really nice to catch up with her as haddent seen her since wycombe days.. =@)
- next went to St Pancreas station to meet josh( who had just arrived) and deborah to collect a big box of "stuff" from my darling baby. it contained TONS of food! i think about 5 or 6 packs of instant meegoreng and instant soup noodles! and like 6 boxes of prima deli mixes including flavours like Laksa, chicken rice, mee rubus, chicken curry! wahhh... shiok! haha.. down side was that i had to lug it back to edinburgh. haha.
- at night went for meal at YO! sushi with hails and her sister... conveyer belt style... but hardly up to the mark of the sushi places in singapore... sakae sakae... i miss you. =@( retired into the night with ben and jerrys....
- monda: woke up terribly late.. wwalked around oxford street for a while by myself to see if i could buy anything.. but it was soooo crowded and the shops were like uber big hence i couldnt find anything ( i know it doesnt make sense but yeah la, too much choice hard to zero in on what you want!) ... discovered to my surprise that the topshop on oxford street even has manicure stations in there now, PLUS a topshop cafe which serves KRISPY KREMES! ahha.. so i bought one just for the hell of it and it was GOOOD... tad sweet.. but yums.
- met up with ruth at clapham later on.. had a really nice catch up session at starbucks and then rushed off to meet my aunty mich for dinner! treated me to a yummy malaysian meal at a place called melati.
- tuesday: woke up late again... went for chinese food in china town again with hails and her sister.. then it was time to leave to go bk on the train.. took 5 hours.. was exhausted when i got bk..
actually this london trip has made me realise how much i appreciate edinburgh. for its non-busyness, relaxed atmosphere and princess strreet which is actually shoppable. London is just way tiring, transport system is terribly expensive.. but dont get me wrong, its GREAT for a lil getaway..+@)
ok that wasnt really much of a summary more like a detailed entry.. but yeah HAPPY HALLOOWEEEN! going for party tonight and i JUST bought my costume.. hahaa youll see in the pics later on what i went as.. hehehe.
