First Day

23 Sept 2008 Arrival

I arrived at freaking 6am!! Initially the guide stated that the coach would only come at 930am and I was dreading the need to wait for like 3hrs + but thankfully as soon as we exited the customs, people in red (Orientation helpers) were already around! They showed us to the coach and we could board it almost immediately. I took a bite at a tuna sandwich with a hot chocolate as I didn't have dinner nor anything on board the plane at all... I think it cost me 5 pounds for both... really costly!

Anyways, the bus trip took like 2.5hrs... 4 of us, Amanda, Katie, Michelle and I were playing Tai Tee till we reach... After getting my keys to the accommodation, I immediately got to Lakeside to check it out... our luggage would only arrive 3 hrs later anyways, and there was much to do...

Anyways, Lakeside is really BEAUTIFUL! I've got one of the best views!








My room!!


Roots Social Building and the common area where students love to hang about

Oh yeah, dinner that night was splendid too... My parents decided that Chinese food is the way to go and we had rather good food.. at this restaurant called China Red and forked up a bill of 52 pounds!!

Suan La Tang! (Sweet and spicy soup)


Beef with Broccoli


Kailan!


Some weird fish!

Here I Am... Warwick

Ok, I have finally arrived at Warwick, or rather I arrived quite some time ago. Been really busy this week, preparing my room, traveling around with my parents, getting to know new people and blending into the community that is here, Warwick.

I shall date the event according to pictures!

22 Sept 2008 Departure Day (D-Day)

This day is probably one with so much mixed emotions! I was happy that I would be going off and yet I was somewhat afraid of how things would turn out... At the same time, I was also sad to be leaving behind my friends and... comfort... LOL

Anyways, I had lunch with Alex at Conrad... it was a buffet lunch.















Really delicious and it was soooooo costly too!


All 3 BELONG to me!

I would also like to thank the following people who came to see me off!
Starting from my Primary School: Glen, Terrence, Jason, Candice, Michelle, Jeremiah, Yintheng (and Eloera!), Peiyi and Grace!!
My Secondary School Friends: Adeline, Sharon and Meiying!
Japanese Class and others: Reagan and Jo, Cherlyne, Terence, JinHan, Eeling and WeeTeck!
It was really nice of them... LoL. Made it harder to leave SG but then again.. we'd be meeting soon anyways.. or I hope... Still, it was great and it sure made me feel glad that we are still in contact.

Here are some shots taken at the airport!






Thanks Guys!

Long Lost...

Yesterday was a really mortifying day...
what seemed to be right, became wrong
Someone lost became found and yet that caused more confusion
Searching deep within, I found someone else totally different
The other changed little except;
albeit with what God forces everyone to change with time
Was it just coldness? Or was it just a loss for words?
My life...
Stumbling back to where we last left it..
