Dear All,
Sorry for not blogging in the longest time...was busy adapting to the new environment here...>.< My flight (with dad!) was at 10am on 22 Sept..We took MAS airline- BUSINESS CLASS!!! Entered the business lounge..and the food there was like massive all types...from nasi lemak to cereals,sandwiches...etc..you name it they got it AND its all f.o.c!! I know I sound jakun but its FREE!!! LOL..
After 30 min of hanging around there...we went on board the plane..Whee!!! (see facebook for more pics!) The 13 hours to get to Heathrow airport flew by rather quickly...in total I watched 5 movies which are Letters to Juliette(Eng), Small Soldiers Big Soldiers (HK),Beauty on Duty(HK), Cinta Silleto(Malay) and Ever After (Eng). Cant really sleep on board as there is a young girl who was wailing all the way!! As such, played games like bejewelled and hangman really kept me busy!
We arrived in Heathrow Airport around 4.15pm(UK time) on the same day, which is well 8 hours earlier than Malaysia (12.15am). Uncle Harry and his eldest daughter Anouska came in 2 cars..both mercedes benz!!! Apparently, cars in UK are very cheap,its just the price of petrols which are the killers! Their home is located at Gerrards Cross near to London but a countryside area..its wonderful!!! Even their dog Snowy is a cutie!! Stayed with the Kapurs (Uncle Harry,Aunt Ash, Anouska,Karina and Snowy) for 3 nights! They spoiled us by bringing us good food every meal- Chinese,Italian,Pasta,Fish and Chips...
Besides that, we managed to do some sight-seeing and shopping in Westfield, which happens to be the biggest shopping mall in the whole of Europe! Uncle Harry drove us there. I instantly fall head over heels for M&S (Marks & Spencer) In UK, M&S is so common everywhere...its like mamaks in Malaysia. Just that M&S sells loads of things from clothes to toiletries to undergarments to food...>.< I spend over 100GBP...and thats only in M&S!! WE stopped for lunch at Spaghetti House before continuing our shoping spree. Next stop,we went Russell & Bromley which sells shoes-I brought 2 pairs!!! XD I even went Pavillions which is something like Sungai Wang at Oxbridge to get my UK number (Vodafone)
The only dissapointment was that I suffered from jet lag...I'll tend to fall asleep/get really sleepy and tired during every dinner time especially during the first few nights
Imagine having dinner at odd hours like 4-5am Malaysian time!!!
I checked into University of Hertfordshire on 25 Sept and the first impression I got was that this campus is freaking big!!!! I mean its HUGE!!! I'm located at HADHAM block/flat 001 room 005...=) Do come and visit me k!! Will upload pictures once I get hold of my USB cable (which I left back in Malaysia)
Will sign off now. Add more later k!!
Love
