2011 Winter Holiday

Salam & Hi! 

I'm starting classes tomorrow! *gulp* Am I ready? I dunno... errk. =.="


The last 3 weeks was awesome! Alhamdulillah.. New places, new experiences, new knowledge, meeting new friends... ^__^

Right after i finished my finals, i was off to the UK for two weeks! The trip was not soo well-planned, thus it caused me more pounds than it should! *sobs sobs*


#IMPORTANT TIPS EVA

Plan ur trip thoroughly! Plan EVERYTHING! i mean it...EVERYTHING! from what time you gonna wake up in da morning (if u can! ngee*), wuts for breakfasts, where to go, how to travel from one place to another within the city, lunches, dinners, even what to buy! Plan at least 2 months earlier.

BATH

Luckily i had Alifah (and Almaz too) there waiting for our arrival. 




They prepared us a fansy supper! yummmm~


Spent the whole next day walking in Bath city. Thanks to, Bath City Forever Tourist Guide: Alifah & CK!  They've been showing around Bath City for 3 consecutive days. 

   
Subhanallah. It was indeed a beautiful city. Rich with art and architecture.

  


In front of Bath Abbey.

DAVON


The next morning, we woke up early for Fuiyo 2011 (a winter gathering). 













LONDON

I was soo happy to meet Garnetrons ( KY house members) in London. We got to house hopping and meet everyone and FOOD. ahaks~ 


At Zamri's Place...



Thats Zamri.. Cooking......

Meanwhile,


We Girls Lepak-lepak.. =P


At Punca's Place.....



Yeah, thats us! Doin a Malaysian Kenduri at the hostel corridor




LONDON TUBE

London Tube was soo confusing at first.. and scary.... But after a week, i think.... I got used to it.  At least i know how to read the map! To those staying in London for a more than 3 days.. Might get yourself an oyster card. Its a blue, 'touch-and-go' kinda card, where you can top up and just use it. Cheaper if you travel by tube a lot. 


BOXING DAY

Gaaahhh! Shoppping spree...! Everything is discounted on Boxing Day. People will be pushing and grabbing, and trust me.. Unless you already have targeted items, just go once to get the experience. *maybe i'll change my mind when i have extra money for shopping.. who knows.. cuz then, i can grab whatever i like!* But for now, i think New Year Sale offers better prices! Cuz everything unsold on Boxing Day (which is a day after Xmas) will be brought forward to New Year Sale. =P



Oxford Street Tube Station 


       Oxford Street



I only grab necessities... ^^
Thats a bag for goin to lectures (needed!)
As well, body wash and lotions (needed!)



Thats me, feeling soo HAPPY cuz someone belanja! ^^

The Best part was... TO MEET 3Cs FELLA! 

We went for a day out together.. And everyone hasn't change much.. Or i can say, hasn't change at ALL! (but one thing for sure, i am fatter than i was in MRSM)


Lunch Together




After chatting and burping, Nazhif brought us to Camden Market, which I FELL IN LOVE IMMEDIATELY with! They sell vintage items! Pure awesomeness!!




Me & Anisa at Camden Market



Camwhore at Camden Market



Everyone was listening to Aimi's philosophy,

We did a small karaoke session with Anisa playing the background music with her guitar
*happy*


MUSEUM HOPING


Well, London has lotttss and lottsssaaa of museums. And, what Fira, Ecah and i did were, we entered   only museums with FREE admission! *kedekut*




We were trying to add some 'engineering' mood into ourselves,
and shot a pic with a huge i-dunno-what-it-was..







The model explained the loo!

WINTER WONDERLAND

If you happened to visit London from 20th-31st December, make sure you visit Hyde Park Winter Wonderland! *happiest nite in London* 

WARWICK 

Well, the days in Warwick were food shopping, watching others cooking, eat and sleep! If you ask me whether i went to Shakespeare's Birth Place... The answer is NO!  



We have to kinda 'borrow' the trolly because we cant lift everything we bought



Felt like in KY again


Thats hygienic Aid, who at last successfully touched the chicken bare-handed!



Thats me pretending to cook something from the microwave. =P



Sisters lunch out.. *hearts*



Errr... It was Syuk doin all the cooking actually, not them 



Thats us, skyping wit ourselves! 
Its just that we wanted to test how skype works on TV



Dinner + Kuch Kuch Hotta Hai


What i get from Winter Holiday?

1. Plan a trip thoroughly if you wanna keep within budget
2. Visit friends as you can feel the bonding strengthen (as overseas students, i can feel that, we support each other more..)
3. Walk around, you'll meet a loot new NICE people
4. The urge to visit LONDON again! ^^
