First of all, I would like to say hi to my almost-going-dead-blog. =P
HarLooooo bloggie =)
I know I have abandon it for quite some time..
So here I am today having a little say about my stay in SHEFFIELD, UK.
Yup...! That's my current location and will be staying here till Sept for my studies.
My flight was from Penang-Singapore-Munich-Manchester. It took about 20 hours to reach Manchester !!!
Can you imagine that...? 20 hours in the plane !!
Erm.....not fully 20 hours, there were times of waiting in the airport too.
And it took us another 1 hour plus to reach Victoria Hall which is our hostel in Sheffield.
So, the total is 20 + 1 hour plus = 21hour plus. Simple math...LOL
Dear readers: Jo Lin is nuts..Who doesn't know how to calculate that?
Me: Yeah sometimes I am..and I am just making it easier for lazy minded people..if earlier you din't know that 20+1 hour plus was 21 hour plus, means you are really a lazy minded person..don't get offended ya..that was not to offend anyone...Heeeee xD
It is a great experience which I am experiencing now. A once in a life time experience :) or maybe I'll come here again for my honeymoon next time?? ;)
I love the weather even though I am a person whose afraid of the cold. You cant barely feel your own hand, nose or even your ear and wont feel tired as well after walking for hours cause you wont sweat!!!
And although it makes my lips crack and my skin dry...it's worth it because there is something called lip balm and lotion and moisturizer to be applied on...Mwahahahha
But guess what? my lip balm crack as well...HAHAHA....guess it's really TOO cold.
Here are some of my pictures to share....the rest are available on facebookie :)
At Penang International Airport
At Changi Airport.
Someone's photography skill is improving !! Not mine, I mean the photographer :)
At Munich Airport.
At Manchester!! We arrived at 2.30pm(M'sia)/7.30am(UK)
And guess what...?
I was given a room on the most top floor!! Sigh..they are just not considerate...letting me a girl to carry my 21kg luggage (which is considered quite light because every other person I asked carries more than 27kg) up to the 3rd floor and instead a guy with a 20kg luggage on the 1st floor..zzzzzz
Luckily a really kind person helped me out :):)
There, the most top floor is where I live..This place is called Victoria Hall.
A nice place to stay indeed :)
My room!!! I've got a bigger bed compared to the others..Its a super single size bed which 2 person can sleep on.
Farewell gifts :)
On the plane.
Meals I had on the plane. Before I could fall asleep, they would come by with food or drinks. Was well fed on the plane.. =)
Lunch in a Chinese restaurant. It cost 6.60 pounds for my pork rib rice with capsicum. That is about RM30 +..woah!!
But the portion was really big, so meals in UK can always be shared or "tapau balik".
See !! Another big portion of lunch I had. This cost 5.80 pounds with drinks and dessert.
I think what Mama told me was true that when I am back from UK I'll look round...She is cute!! she said ROUND and not FAT. Haha
But I hope her grandson will look "rounder" because he practically complains everyday saying he is too thin. Both of them are just as cute xD
This is our lunch during the welcome event. And that is what I took. I know I was a lil too GREEDY to take that much xD
And another set of my lunch ! I seriously think I can grow "round" staying in UK. Can ignore my protein and full cream milk diet already coz it doesn't work. And I have been eating lots of chocolate too because its cheap here !!!
Toiletry stuffs are CHEAP in UK even their clothing but not so for the food.
Living expenses in UK is not really high actually if I earn in POUNDS...So, perhaps I should work here next time?
This lotion is 2 for 1 pound. Cheap rite? But look at it properly. It's for medium to dark skin and it even helps to build tan !! Hahahha....I know I am not dark enough, perhaps u want me to look darker just like you? just joking about that..Or you din't know its for tanning as well? Guess both of us were really blur !!
Anyway, I am happy to share anything with you and hope u'll have a really flawless tan skin
LOL (:
Oh ya...Currently I am using LEBARA!!! Sounds really weird right? It seriously sounds weird to me. Its one of the cheapest provider here which cost 5 pence per min to call back to M'sia and free calls and messages between Lebara users :)
Oh....one more thing to share. I guess all the guys here must be really happy.
WHY? WHY? WHY?
The Uni gives away FREE condoms to everyone. A person (does not matter whether you are a guy or a girl) can take 20 condoms a month ! HAHA
I was thinking, if a couple (which is a guy and a girl...OBVIOUSLY ;) or perhaps there are two guys..who knows? LOL) would take it each month, means there would be 40 condoms in a month.
Ang mo's are really active. LOL....
I am laughing my way out while typing this.
I might take it..........................to SELL!!! Bwahahaahahha (don't simply think lahhh)
Before I end my post, here's a few more pictures to share the beauty of Sheffield.
It looks quite fake. More like me standing in front of a painting. But it's real...that's how beautiful a place could be :)
Goodnight people...sweet dreams and sleep tight as well :)
Love,
Jo♥Lin
